(forwarding unintended off-list mail... ARGH) This should fix both issues. /tools/shapes/arc/* can be left unchanged from previous versions now. Regards, Krzysztof

The translations use (new)Pushkin because the author wanted to reuse the 0.46 font. Thus I won't change it except if Johan asks me to. Regards, -- Nicolas

0.47 about screens in progress
by Nicolas Dufour 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Hi Thanks to all who confirmed or added their translation (some translations still need to be confirmed!). Wiki page updated (http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/AboutScreenTranslation). Johan is very busy at the moment, thus I've started to translate the screens by myself. I've tried Excellentia, but due to a very limited accents support, I've finally switched to Harabara Hand (http://www.dafont.com/harabarahand.font). The only drawback is that it doesn't support Cyrillic and other Unicode characters. Since I haven't found a nice script Cyrillic font, the Russian screen uses URW Chancery L (a default Ubuntu font). It's not a script font, but it looks better than a Times or Arial in this context. The translated screens are now (revision 22547) br, fr, it, nl, pt_BR, and ru. Could you please take a look at the screens and tell me what you think of the chosen fonts before I continue? Johan, do you want to keep your original untouched, or replace the "draw freely" font by Harabara Hand (or another script font)? Regards, -- Nicolas

Hi ^-, Where are you? I miss you around in our chat channel... Love, Johan (our beloved IRC/Jabber-bridge-bot is gone from the Jabber channel :-( can we bring it back?)

You have to have some potential snap targets (some drawing) in order to reproduce it: 1. Have some drawing on the canvas, 2. select the pen tool, 3. move your mouse quickly for some time, 4. click somewhere near a drawing for a new line. You will notice that the snap indicator appears correctly on the grid, put the line starts somewhere in between... Arcadie

Fix for bug #459811 - can't switch ellipse mode
by Krzysztof Kosiński 30 Oct '09

Hello Attached is a fix for bug #459811. The case was a typo (missing slash) in toolbox.cpp which I probably made when refactoring preferences code. Please commit. Regards, Krzysztof Kosiński

0.47, probably not in the next week
by Joshua A. Andler 30 Oct '09

30 Oct '09

Hey All, Subject says it all. My family is moving this week and Jon & I will be at Google HQ this weekend for the GSoC Mentor's summit. I will not have a chance to review any patches until I am back early next week. Bulia, if you see any good and safe ones, feel free to wreak havoc. ;) Honestly, if someone wanted to take a look at the LPE Undo issues (change a param on any LPE and then hit undo). It would probably save us a ton of grief with user complaints if it could be fixed (obviously, only if the issue is not to complex). Cheers, Josh

About box graphics in 0.47
by Alexandre Prokoudine 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

Hi, Just so it doesn't slip, are we not forgetting to replace graphics in the About dialog with the contest winning picture? (and prepare the one that was No.2 for 0.48 development cycle?) Alexandre
