How to fix a bug for 0.48.1
by unknown＠example.com 02 Sep '10

02 Sep '10

Hi all, I just fixed a bug in trunk that should be released also in 0.48.1. How should one go about this? Is there a better way of simply doing the edits twice, once in trunk and once in 0.48.1 branch? (i.e. should i merge things or...) Thanks, Johan

Minor website fixes (was: Free Desktop Release)

It looks Chris is talking about having added this stuff for the favicon problem: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^wiki\.inkscape\.org [NC] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/wiki RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/favicon\.ico$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /wiki$1 [L] It looks right to me too... I know that doesn't help much yet. Can you maybe show us (or email to me) the main apache config, if it doesn't include anything sensitive? Just to see what redirecting is being done, it would be good if we can fix the favicon problem while this web stuff is being looked at. It could be the contents of a file that resides here or somewhere similar: /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/inkscape.org or /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/www.inkscape.org Thanks, Craig

Gaussian problem with inkscape 0.48

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Cloned Tiles interface rework proposal
by Valerie 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

> http://www.foopics.com/showfull/9c37a7ecb9b96d1499428c0adfc7cc2c Nice! Let's use something like that! I think the one on the bottom left looks nicer, as the black lines are distracting, but if the black lines are made a shade of gray, it should work too. > The way rows and columns apply to groups like P4G or P6M is strange. To be honest, I never understood how those work. It never came out right for me. If anybody has a tutorial to share, please do. :) Since there is a lot of space in the Symmetry tab, we could add a link on the bottom titled "Documentation," which pops up a symmetry tutorial. In my proposal, the visually selected boundary path can take any angle, so the tutorial could tell you which best angle to use to get the desired results for that type of tiling. > But maybe things are as they are because of the structure of SVG? I haven't thought of that one! Can someone confirm whether this is the case? Apart from that, does anybody else have the pros and cons of having only clones? (you would not be able to "remove" all the clones leaving only the original, but "undo" also works no?) > Exponent has no unit. Thanks! I'll remove it from the mock-up. > BTW, I'm not sure how Randomize works. Would 5% mean that the range of > possible deviations is from -2.5% to 2.5%? if it's something else, it > might not make sense to offer absolute units there. I could see a use for absolutes in randomnize though. Let's use the example of shifting: your clones will be able to shift in either direction by up to 5 pixels, thus introducing variety without going out of certain bounds.

make Inkscape populary for Laserengravingmachine
by Axel Richter 30 Aug '10

30 Aug '10

Dear Inkscape Developer, i work with laserengravingmachine at my job, but at home i use inkscape to draw anything. I have try with my boss to use inkscape for this laser. The surfaceraster is going right but the cut isn`t going. I hope we a any others can use inkscape in future for this laser. This could inkscape more populare and alternative for many laserusers. Now i can use Corel draw and adobe photoshop for this laser. The problem is only the cut-line this could a line how in corel a hairline or 0,01 thickness i think the laser can`t understand the vectorline from inkscape. The faces understand it. The lasers work´s with 1200dpi 600dpi or 400dpi how any printers. Other thing would be the engravers area, i would set the ruler-coordinates especially for the type of lasermachine I hope you can help to use inkscape for it. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Axel Richter ~ +WEB+VECTOR+PHOTO+MUSIC+ ~ Web: http://www.airwaveindehouse.com http://www.axelrichteronline.de Mail: airwaveindehouse@...1439...

Export dialog, relative path patch
by Craig Marshall 29 Aug '10

29 Aug '10

Hi, I've written some codethat makes the export dialog leave out the directory when exporting a drawing or an object, defaulting to just the png filename (patch attached). This is for two reasons: 1) Since the export path defaults to the SVG directory anyway, this will a) not change anyone's workflow, but b) will reduce work when you inevitably move your files around. If relative paths are an option, is there a good reason why they are not the default option? I suppose it's conceivable that people always export all pngs to a certain fixed folder that is nothing to do with the SVG directory, but then you have to type that in anyway, so this doesn't harm that use case at all. 2) I didn't even know that relative paths worked until about a week ago*, so I have to assume that at least some others don't know about it either. This patch helps to advertise to users that it is even possible, and saves them some work! If you accept this code, please look at it very carefully, I am just a novice at these things. Craig * I have manually updated the export path in this dialog when my files need to be moved (at least once per file, depending on that jobs status, which seems to be unavoidable in my workflow), I dont even want to think how many hours I've spent doing this unnecessarily.

Extension interface request
by Craig Marshall 29 Aug '10

29 Aug '10

Hi, I'd like to make a couple of requests for features (or perhaps explanations/pointers to why they can't be included). 1) It would be really cool to have a proper directory selection (or popup directory chooser) as an option on the inkex dialog. This way the user doesn't have to memorise their favourite directories etc., they can browse to them, or use favourites, etc. 2) Someone on #inkscape mentioned that the filename/directory information was excluded from the SVG for security reasons, but this class of information is still freely included in the form of export hints. It's inconsistent for one, and inconvenient for another. I've just been developing an extension where it would have been much nicer to export the necessary files to the same directory by default. A possible workaround if 1) is ever implemented, would be to optionally default the directory chooser to the drawing's working directory, thereby bypassing the security problem. 3) Possibly related to 2. Whenever I export a document from inkscape, then move the file (I have a bunch of folders/hierarchies and the files move depending on various states), if I then need to export again, I have to tell it where to export to, and it's a bit of a pain, it would be nice for an option to always export to the working directory. Thanks, Craig
