Document resources?
by Maximilian Albert 26 Dec '07

26 Dec '07

Hi, another thing I just stumbled across: A couple of objects like filters, LPEs, gradients, etc. have something like this in their build methods: /* Register ourselves */ sp_document_add_resource(document, "gradient", object); ... and the corresponding code in the _release() method. What precisely does this do and what is it good for? What kinds of objects should "register themselves" and why? Thanks, Max

PPC numpy, lxml

Jiho - I have numpy for py25 and py24 and lxml for py25. These are macport installs and are fairly bulky (~ 10 Mb). Let me know how you would like to have them delivered! Stu

printing broken!
by bulia byak 25 Dec '07

25 Dec '07

The new print dialog looks impressive, but it does not work. I choose print to lpr and nothing happens (ubuntu 6.10). It worked fine before the last overhaul (about a month ago). Print preview button also does nothing, just closes the print dialog. Printing to file also fails to create any file. I think this must be addressed asap, since I'm not the only one complaining about this. -- bulia byak Inkscape. Draw Freely. http://www.inkscape.org

Re: [Inkscape-devel] RSVG dependancies
by joel＠...1709... 24 Dec '07

Well that symbol I gave was just an example of the BZ2_bzCompress@...1849.... @ notation. But yes, I would like to compile it without bzip2 support, but I'm not quite sure how to do that on windows command line. Do I use the source code from the bzip2 website or off the MingW/MSYS website? Do I compile on the windows command line? or in some other more linux friendly shell? or even in linux itself? Or if I were to try and compile bzip2, I'd really want to know the same answers to those questions. ---------------------------------------- From: JonY <10walls@...400...> Sent: 24 December 2007 15:46 To: inkscape-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Inkscape-devel] RSVG dependancies joel@...1709... wrote: > Hi All, > > After bulia's earlier comment about the possibility of rendering SVG > previews with RSVG, I did some investigation.

MSYS uses a different runtime all together, its not supposed to be used for non-MSYS apps. I used the static lib instead (could have been dll-ized), links to the librsvg dll without problems, but I don't have BZ2_bzCompress@...1333... either. $ nm /mingw/lib/libbz2.a | grep BZ2_bzCompress 00000820 T _BZ2_bzCompress@...1847... 00000990 T _BZ2_bzCompressEnd@...1346... 00000170 T _BZ2_bzCompressInit@...1848... Have you tried compiling librsvg yourself without bzip2 support? bzip2 support maybe needed for rendering compressed svgz, but I'm not entirely sure. Hope everything goes well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

RSVG dependancies
by joel＠...1709... 24 Dec '07

24 Dec '07

Hi All, After bulia's earlier comment about the possibility of rendering SVG previews with RSVG, I did some investigation. I think this *is* the way to go. Already I've got cairo working very nicely feeding graphics into my preview pane. librsvg looks pretty straight-forward as well. I'm having a slight problem adding the rsvg dependency. It seems that the version of the lib in the bundle has been compiled with bzip2.dll as a dependency. I can't possibly see why it would need to support that, but if we were to add bzip2, that only adds another 60kB. Problem is, I can't find a version of bzip2 which will play nice with librsvg.dll because the exported symbols in the my MSYS version of the dll that I have, are of the form "BZ2_bzCompress", but librsvg-2-2.dll imports "BZ2_bzCompress@...1333...". Where do the DLLs in the bundle come from? Could librsvg be compiled without bzip2 support? or Is a version of bzip2.dll with the correct exports available somewhere? and can I get that dll before the next bundle is released? because I don't want to wait for months any suggestions? Thanks Joel

I think it would be faster, and I would absolutely *love* to use cairo - and indeed that was my initial plan, but last I looked, I didn't see rsvg in the bundle, and I didn't want to add the extra as a dependancy. But I see that it is there now - I shall give it a try! Molumen wrote: > Just curious: will there be a "toggle preview on/off" possibility as in the current file dialog? There should be no problem adding that sort of refinement. I could even append it as a button on right-hand end of the toolbar there.

But for the rest of the inkscape icons - like the drawing tools etc, the windows users will want the tango icons for these as well, simply because they're very much more in keeping with the Windows style. So I agree with ryan; i think we should change these over as soon as we can. ---------------------------------------- From: Andreas Nilsson <nisses.mail@...563...> Sent: Saturday, August 25, 2007 10:54 AM To: ryan lerch <ryanlerch@...400...> Subject: SPAM-LOW: Re: [Inkscape-devel] Tango Icons ryan lerch wrote: > is there any way to change the standard GTK + icons on the windows > build to the tango style also? > Hi Ryan!

Problem with Native File Dialogs for Windows
by joel＠...1709... 24 Dec '07

24 Dec '07

Hi All, It's been a very long time now, and I'm so close; but I've got one last (possibly fatal) problem with my native file dialogs for windows project. I've been having problems with rendering the preview image in the side bar (last time I spoke to this community, the consensus was that preview was a requisite for the feature to be included). Basically my problem is that inkscape only seems to support loading, and rendering an SVG in the main UI thread - anything else causes it to die. But also only the main thread can handle Windows messages. So I can get the SVG to render into my preview pane, but during rendering, because the rendering occurs in the main thread, the UI locks up until the rendering is complete. Given that calling sp_document_new to load the file blocks for 100-600ms, and rendering takes 200-1500ms for practical SVGs, the code that I have can hardly be called an upgrade! I'm just wondering, is there *any* way at all that the preview document can be loaded, or the document rendered without making a blocking call? or is there any way that this could happen in worker thread? Because as you can see from the screenshot (attached) almost everything else is working perfectly, and the whole thing is looking resonably slick. Also it'd be great to be able to get this feature in, because last time I counted (in the old sourceforge tracker), it would close no less than 8 bugs in the tracker. Any suggestions? Joel
