Update W3C tests
by Tavmjong Bah 11 Dec '10

11 Dec '10

Hello, The W3C SVG working group is in the final stages of getting the SVG 1.1 "Second Edition" out the door. The test suit has been greatly expanded as part of this work. Before the standard can be finalized, each test in the suite must have at least two SVG renderers pass the test. I have run Inkscape via the command line over the suite. At the moment there are 440 approved tests (this may change in the next few weeks). The results are: OK (PASS): 166 PARTIAL: 23 FAIL: 251 Most of the fails are due to non-supported features: No DOM, animation, interactivity support: ~160 No SVG font support: ~20 Still, there is quite a bit of room for improvement, some probably trivial. I've prepared web pages for the tests. They can be found at: http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/W3C_SVG_1.1F2/harness/htmlInkscapeApproved… Tav

Re: [Inkscape-devel] website
by Steven Ottens 09 Dec '10

Hi All, Since I've volunteered and been drafted as a Ux/UI guy for the redesign of the website a couple of remarks and questions on the idea for the new website. For me and probably also for the designers as well it would be nice to define who the visitors of the new website will be. I came up with these three main groups. -new users -users (artists/designers etc) -developers These three groups have different needs and expectations from the site. This is my view on their needs and expectations, feel free to shoot holes into them/enhance them. New users The new user group has been addressed by the 'Big Issue' talk on blenderguru. Short version: -they need to know what it is, what it does and where to get it. -frontpage is their first introduction to Inkscape and as such should be focussed towards their need (Short explanation, download button/link, 'learn' button/link) and visually attractive Users They already have inkscape, they visit the site for a couple of reasons. -Check for/download new version (put version number on the download button/link) -Learn how to use inkscape/improve their skills through tutorials -Get help with (technical) issues with inkscape -Showcase their work -Get more resources like scripts/plugins/palettes etc. -... Developers They already know inkscape and like to improve it. So they visit the site because: -They like to know how to get the sourcecode, compile it etc -File/solve bugs -...? (I'm no developer so help me out :) The reason I ask this, is because knowing who is using the site and why makes it easier to design a site-structure. The current mind-map of the site, although very complete doesn't provide a very balanced site-structure. 'Community Frontpage' is 3 levels deep, 'Press and references' is one level deep and 'Open clip art' is not even part of the site, though all three are shown as equal children of the frontpage. Having a beautiful and consistent design, isn't enough. A logical and short site-structure is important as well; having relevant subsections close to each other is key. Love to hear your thoughts. Having the discussion now makes it possible to incorporate the outcome in the winning design from day one. Regards Steven -- Senior UxDesigner

Inkscape Tango/Art Libre icons.
by David Bolack 08 Dec '10

08 Dec '10

Without getting on any particular nerves about Inkscape and this Icon Set, I have a question. :) Looking at the wiki page here, http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Themable_icons, it appears that ya'll have vastly extended the Art Libre set. Have these additions been contributed back into Art Libre (the page for that looks stale) and if not are what license are they under?

Hello all: I've not been active for a while, but I wanted to begin again. My focus is the Technical Drafting portion of Inkscape. I've put together my thoughts in this document. I would love some feed back. https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1hSD8lW0Nv3Z3BHFXXg9vDsBI4U0CaWw1kP… I'm a bit selfish, as I am sick and tired of shelling out hundreds and thousands of dollars for the latest and greatest drafting software every few years. Having Inkscape be able to replace AutoCAD and Vectorworks would be the greatest gift I could every receive. You should all know that you have made a fantastic piece of software here.

Notebooks in internal extensions
by Nicolas Dufour 03 Dec '10

03 Dec '10

Hello, I'm currently trying to use a 3 tabs notebook in an internal extension (a filter with some options and two color selectors), but Inkscape crashes as soon as an ext->get_param_xxx function is called from the filter's code. Everything works fine if I remove the notebook from the filter UI code. These functions use the parameters list of the extension (see extension/extension.cpp, line 427+) to return the requested value. The problem is that this list, which is also used to create the UI, only contains the first level parameters, and when using a notebook, the notebook's parameters only (but not what's inside it). ParamNotebook (extension/param/notebook.cpp, line 64+) has it's own lists (one for each page), which are also used to create the pages' UI, and contain all the parameters that should be (but currently are not) accessible from the extension's get_param functions in order to make notebooks work as expected. Since it's not possible to add the notebook's pages parameters to the extension's ones (it would break the UI), I plan to add a new private merged list in Extension::Extension and a public Extension::add_param function to allow parameters addition from the notebook code. Could an extension expert (Ted, Johan?) advise me? Regards. -- Nicolas
