lp:inkscape should be operational
by Ted Gould 29 Nov '09

29 Nov '09

Hey all, Sorry to take so long on this. But, it turns out when you mess up one little thing -- you need to regen everything -- and that sucks :) Currently there is a trunk branch from SVN in Launchpad and associated with the name "lp:inkscape". The other branches are currently uploading, and are likely to be available tonight. I created a group for Inkscape developers: inkscape.dev[1]. Anyone in that group should have access to trunk. Anyone in the inkscape.admin[2] team should be able to add people, so if you have commit access in SF currently, grab someone on Jabber/IRC and get added to the inkscape.dev group. If you want, you can get the same effect of the -cvs mailing list by subscribing to the trunk branch. You can then edit your e-mail settings for what mail you want to get.[3] Lastly, some people might find the 5-minute tutorial on Bazaar.[4] --Ted [1] https://launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev [2] https://launchpad.net/~inkscape.admin [3] https://help.launchpad.net/Code/FindingAndDownloading#Staying%20up% 20to%20date [4] http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/latest/en/mini-tutorial/index.html

need help: trying to compile 047 X11 for Tiger
by Wolf Drechsel 29 Nov '09

29 Nov '09

Hello everybody, people who asked me to compile 0.47 X11 for Tiger did probabely not know what a bad idea that was - because things tend to be done much faster by oneself than when teaching a complete ignorant is required… - Nevertheless, I feel honoured by the request and regret having to bother all you with another set of childish questions. What I did up to now: I set up my machine and compiled 0.47 aqua, the description given here: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ CompilingMacOsX#Building_Aqua_November_2009 should be fairly accurate. Now I'd like to set up another tree for a X11 version, trying to follow this: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ CompilingMacOsX#Installing_a_second_Macports_tree_. 28recommended_approach.29 - but just the other way round - as my aqua building environment was the first in place. This is what the instructions say: > Installing a second Macports tree (recommended approach) > Rather than deactivating and reactivating ports, you can also keep > two MacPorts trees side by side, provided you install the second > one from source. Let say I want to install a new tree for native > versions in /opt/local/native, I would do > Right. I created a /opt/local/x11 instead > export PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin > cd ~/MacPorts-1.x.x/ This is the first place to stumble - I dont have a ~/MacPorts- whatever, allthough the latest macports is installed. What's going wrong here? > ./configure --prefix=/opt/local-native --with-tclpackage=/Library/ > Tcl/macports-native make sudo make install Next stumble - I learned that the osx-build.sh script can do nearly everything. So does it make sense to call configure? > You can set this second tree up to always build packages with > specific variants. For example, you can edit the /opt/local-native/ > etc/macports/variants.conf file to have the following line: > > +universal +no_x11 +quartz O.k. - created a /opt/x11/etc/macports/variants.conf containing +x11 > You can remove the +universal if you only want to build inkscape > for your host architecture. You may also need to set alternate > applications_dir and frameworks_dir variables in the /opt/local- > native/etc/macports/macports.conf > There is not such a file. I can create /opt/x11/etc/macports/ macports.conf, but > file so that applications and frameworks install by this macports > (for example by python) don't clash with your standard macports tree. > … not the shadow on an idea what that means… > Then you need to have only one version of the port command in the > path at any time so you need to setup your .bashrc > (or .bash_profile or .profile) accordingly. I use shell aliases to > quickly and temporarily switch to the universal version: > > alias portpathregular="export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/ > Developer/Tools:/usr/local/bin: \ /usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/ > bin:/usr/sbin" alias portpathnative="export PATH=/opt/local-native/ > bin:/opt/local-native/sbin:/Developer/Tools:/usr/local/bin: \ /usr/ > X11R6/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin" o.k. - that was easy. Inbetween I try to install the x11 variants of cairo +x11 pango +x11 poppler +x11 gtk2 +x11… As the patient reader, who came down to this place in my opus may have noticed - there is a big lack of fundamental knowledge here. So if anybody would be kind enough to give me further instructions on the questions mentioned above, mainly in what way the osx-build-sh can be part of it - I'd be grateful. Yours, Wolf

Local Coordinates for group transformations?
by Rob Antonishen 28 Nov '09

28 Nov '09

Does the SVG specification limit local co-ordinate systems for transformations, or is it a function of the UI (i.e. Inkscape itself). Specifically, if I take a number of objects and group them, then scale, rotate, and/or skew the group, I would like to be able to step into the group and perform operations that also run through the same transforms. For example, if I group several orthogonal squares together, then rotate the group, I would like to be able to step into the group, select one of the squares and scale it non-uniformly into a rectangle. Currently, it will deform into a rhombus. The results I am looking for can be achieved in the current Inkscape be making a clone of the group, then scaling, rotating and/or skewing the clone. I can then go back and modify the source and the expected result happens. This, however, is very awkward, as I need to keep the originals all parked off page and can't accurately change the shapes by eye to get things lined up. SVG spec supports viewports and I got real close by following these steps: I opened up the xml editor and selected the group node for layer 1 and added a new "element node" that I set as svg:svg i then dragged the group I want to transform INTO the node. You can select the svg:svg element and apply a rotation (or translation, but only one...so use rotation). Now right click and enter svg2912. Click into the group object. You can now translate or scale the elements of the group orthogonally! I.e. if you cursor right, it moves in positive X direction of the original object, not the rotated one. Essentially everything inside the svg:svg element has a different axis than the page. Now the big problem. Inkscape will not respect the rotation of the svg:svg node when loading the savd file, so the object moves. Any suggestions? Is this a feature request? is support of the svg:svg viewport element? Thanks in advance- -Rob A>

<snip> 2009/11/25 <gorgonzola@...1955...>: > the described error still occurs with inkscape 0.47 and all newest dependencies. any hints? I think you might have an obsolete version of poppler headers in /usr/local. It is a build system bug that Inkscape configures at all in such a situation... Regards, Krzysztof </snip> many thanks so far i deleted the old installation and installed the latest version. now i get this error: In file included from extension/init.cpp:39: extension/internal/pdfinput/pdf-input.h:38:20: error: PDFDoc.h: No such file or directory dennis

0.47 X11 Tiger build ahead ?
by Wolf Drechsel 27 Nov '09

27 Nov '09

Hello friends, is anybody planning to compile a 0.47 Mac OS X X11 version? I'd like to focus on the aqua thing - but if nobody has a Tiger machine running, I would start struggling with trees, variants and all these things I hardly have any idea about… Greetings, Wolf
