slow selection frame redraw
by Alexandre Prokoudine 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Hi, A question asked out of curiosity. Currently when you draw a rubberband selection rectangle over an area where obhects have SVG Filters applied, especially with a Gaussian blur primitive, speed of redrawing the rectangle gets noticeably slower. Why is that? Alexandre

LPE's: Red line vs. Green line
by Tavmjong Bah 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Why does the Spiro LPE use a green line while the others LPE's use a red line to show the original path? It would be better, I think, if there was consistency between all the LPE's. (I realize that the original path is not very useful for the Spiro LPE.) Tav

whatever happened to the CAD tools?
by heathenx 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Just curious if anyone was planing on resurrecting the basic CAD tools that we used to have at one time during the 0.47 dev process. Was that just a proof of concept or will they be implemented at some point (0.48 perhaps)? heathenx

LPEs for 0.47, take two
by Alexandre Prokoudine 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Hi, Could we possibly try to include two currently disabled LPEs into 0.47? I'm particularly talking about: 1. Mirror symmetrically, which resolves multiple times requested symmetric drawing mode 2. Booloops, which makes Spiro a lot more useful. For now I moved all entries for currently disabled LPEs and the LPE tool itself from POTFILES.in to a newly created POTFILES.ignore so that translators have less problems. Alexandre

Disconnected Arabic Letters on Mac OS X
by Boutros Saba 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Hello Folks, Did anybody check that? I have version 0.46. past versions also fail to do the task, when I install them on my Mac OS X 10.4.11. The letters appear but without being connected. Also, when I try to paste text from outside to Inkscape it copies the Arabic text but it disconnects the letters. Any ideas please? Thanks, Boutros

LPE Effects: Red line
by Tavmjong Bah 01 Jun '09

01 Jun '09

Hi, The editable red line showing the original path in an LPE when the LPE path is selected and the Node tool in use is no longer present in 0.46 +svn. Is this by design or is this a bug? I found it quite useful to be able to manipulate the original path and see the effect on the LPE path. Tav

systemLanguage works, one Tardigrade
by Martin Owens 01 Jun '09

01 Jun '09

Hey guys, I remember surprising some of the old Inkscape devs when I confirmed that the systemLanguage attribute does in fact work with Inkscape. (one language at a time). Today I created an svg to sent to a friend who does translations, with notes on what parts of the svg do what. I tested it in eog, Firefox and Inkscape. Inkscape's only bug was that it didn't take into account language variations. So en_GB would show up for en_US in a switch. Eye of Gnome on the other hand did the variations correctly but failed to not render tags with incorrect languages outside of switch tags. Firefox was a complete bust, everything is always English, suspect it doesn't listen to the LANG environment variable. http://divajutta.com/doctormo/multi-lang.svg Best Regards, Martin Owens

pedro
by Alexandre Prokoudine 01 Jun '09

01 Jun '09

Hi, Before we hit strings freeze, it would be great to do something about Pedro (XMPP client). I know that this feature is by no means complete and is supposed to be rewritten more or less from scratch, but what we have currently is something optional that is always in English. In my not very humble opinion even such a feature should be localized. Keeping something that is not ready but somewhat available unlocalizable intentionally doesn't really sound wise to me. Could we please have this fixed? Another thing is that some messages are actually marked for translation and don't work. So I'm tempted to move them to POTFILES.ignore, because they don't make any sense to translator at the moment: even if they rebuild Inkscape with --enable-inkboard they can't even check what it looks like.

by Alvin Penner 01 Jun '09

Will the program inkscapec.exe be included in the Windows distribution of 0.47? http://kaioa.com/node/63 This would be useful for those who are tracking bugs in Windows. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/include-inkscapec.exe---tp23632618p23632618.html Sent from the Inkscape - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
