Concept mapping & Knowledge Modeling with Inkscape
by Ludovic Bocken 08 Nov '20

08 Nov '20

Hello, I would like to know more about possibilities to do concept mapping, mind mapping, knowledge modeling (UML, BPMN, ...), etc. with Inkscape. Some questions... 1. How to start quickly and efficiently these kind of tasks? 2. How to develop new functionalities to make easier these kind of tasks? 3. What kind of extension is better to do that? 4. Is there a specific SVG format to use? 5. Do I have to develop in Python or in C++? Thank you very much for your help !

Dependency : lcms2
by Marc Jeanmougin 05 Nov '20

05 Nov '20

Hi all, developpers, packagers, as discussed in the last developer's meeting (and given that Inkscape did not actually compile without lcms2), lcms2 is now a mandatory dependency of Inkscape. Good evening, -- Marc

back in the USSR
by NASA Jeff 22 Oct '20

22 Oct '20

or rather the UK, I left my flat keys in turkey and can't get into my flat and my mum and grandfather were moving house when I got back and we've only just had the internet hooked up. it's running at a measly 1.5mb so I'm going to have to wait until I get a new keyfob from the landlord and can get back into my flat before I can continue with more serious work. They take a week or so to get a new keyfob for some reason so I'll ask them if they have a code for an emergency box on the door so I can get in sooner and don't have so much hassle if I lose my keyfob again. They will probably tell me to bugger off so I expect to see you all again in a week or so's time when I have fiber and we can catch up properly. My mum is almost moved now so hopefully i'll have some time to relax and get on with some reading, Turkey was busy all the time and I got quite a lot done over there and even learnt a little turkish. I had a chance to look at acrobat when I was over there and appart from the kind of clicking and locking you get in cad packages it didn't really seem anything special, it was quick however.

Custom Styles
by Early Ehlinger 16 Oct '20

16 Oct '20

Hello Inkscape Devs, I've put together this pull request: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/2405 I've run into a bit of a snag on the unit test front because make check doesn't show as a valid target, even though I've run download-gtest.sh and re-run cmake. cmake complains that: -- Could NOT find GTest (missing: GTEST_INCLUDE_DIR GTEST_MAIN_LIBRARY) CMake Warning at CMakeLists.txt:187 (message): No gtest found! Disabling testing... I'm going to keep hacking at this, but would love any advice and/or to discuss the PR in the meantime. -- Early Ehlinger

Dependency : boost-filesystem
by Marc Jeanmougin 01 Oct '20

01 Oct '20

Hi all, Since we switched to C++17, there has been an attempt to use std::filesystem to simplify some of our file handling code. However, some compilers we still want to support for now (like gcc8 or some macos clang versions) do not have it in by default or need a special flag. Hence we decided at the last dev meeting (reminder, next dev meeting is saturday, and we have a board meeting tomorrow (friday)) to use boost-filesystem, which has exactly the same API, in the meantime (so that when we switch, it will "just" be a matter of removing the dep, a few lines in CMakeLists and change the #include). On some systems boost includes everything (and we already use some of boost) so you'll be fine, and on ubuntu-like systems you might need to apt install libboost-filesystem-dev If you have questions for a particular system, feel free to voice them, and if you are willing to use std::filesystem and want to maintain a patch to avoid adding a dep in the meantime, you'll basically want to locally revert 6880148747deb6d7ec4e73068b9e196bb11a0f0c Good evening, -- Marc
