[OT] Website buttons

Hi, in the Inkscape website has two W3C buttons like that: http://twiki.softwarelivre.org/pub/Main/TWikiPreferences/bt_xhtml10_p.gif I did a SVG button based on that and you can get hire: http://twiki.softwarelivre.org/pub/InkscapeBrasil/ProjetoGrafico/bt_svg_p.p… I think is good to promote the SVG standard like the XHTML standard ;-) And i did a Inkscape button for everybody: http://twiki.softwarelivre.org/pub/InkscapeBrasil/ProjetoGrafico/bt_inkscap… Até!

Hi, it looks like the fullscreen mode (F11) is broken in SVN. :( Can someone confirm this? Regards, Tobias

build break on 2geom change
by Jon A. Cruz 01 Sep '07

01 Sep '07

It appears that as of tonight the build is broken due to a missing dependency. The update to the 2geom code brought in a dependance on gsl. If someone could look into that and then update configure.ac with a check for the needed version, that would be helpful. Just FYI, on a Mac here I have version 1.8.

Changing layer opacity affects other layers
by microUgly 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

I'm creating a set of amimated cursors which involves exporting each frame from Inkscape. One of the animations involves reducing the opacity of a number of layers for each frame. I'm finding when I change the opacity of one layer then select another layer this layers opacity will also change. Quite frustrating as I've exported the frames for an animation 5 times now and each time I've found there's been a mistake with opacity on a layer :) I'm not sure if the problem is related to the amount of time Inkscape takes to redraw the image after changing opacity - I think if I select the next layer before the redraw is finished the setting is carried across. I've used blur so the redraw can be a little slow. I'm currently experiancing this in the dev build but I was having the same issue on another PC where I think I was running 0.45 -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Changing-layer-opacity-affects-other-layers-tf4339104… Sent from the Inkscape - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

liboil dependency?

Hi guys, Would anyone have a problem with adding a dependency on liboil? If not, I'd like to get it into the Windows bundle before I commit anything that requires it. -mental

Odd size of imported bitmaps
by Dan H. 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

Hello, I've imported a 400x400 pixel TIFF image into an inkscape drawing, and it comes out as 112.89 x 112.89 mm, which translates to a resolution of roughly 90 dpi. Where does this number come from? Shouldn't inkscape honour the dpi information that is embedded in the TIFF image? Alternatively, for images that don't have a "built-in" resolution, inkscape should ask for a "native" size of the image or use a changeable default resolution. Also I noticed that some imported images have width and height xml attributes while others don't. All this came to my attention when I worked with a SVG file with 20 imported images of about 10MB each (TIFF uncompressed) which bogged down my computer. I tried substitutung the TIFFs with scaled-down (by .25) working copies, which worked fine for those images that had width and height attributes (the others came out a fourth of the size), I'm just wondering how Inkscape arrives at the "native" size of an image, and I wanted to know if others agreed with my notion that in a vector drawing program the resolution of imported bitmaps was of high importance. It would also be nice if Inkscape could somehow reload image properties if the original bitmap had changed (by scaling or cropping, for instance). Thanks, --Dan

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Curve Stitching first steps
by unknown＠example.com 30 Aug '07

Hey Josh, (CC to devel) The pentool bug is a good one :), yep I only thought of using the node tool for editting paths doh! Stacking is definitely planned. But... at this moment it will not help you a lot. The problem is that the path-along-path effect has its inputs switched around: path-along-path: svgd input = path to put something along (can only be one path, probably cannot contain gaps or anything) parameter input = path to put along the other path The stacking will work like this (because this is simple to implement [1]): output of one effect goes to the *svgd input* of the next one. As you can see, this will not function as desired for stacking curve stitching and path-along-path. "So why is path-along-path made this way? It is also not handy for applying it to groups!" The problem now is that only the svgd input can be editted on-canvas. The parameter paths cannot. So imagine having that fish bend along a curve, and then not being able to nicely edit that curve :S On-canvas editting of path parameters has very high priority on my list, but it is not so easy. This curve stitching thing was really easy to implement (just look at the code), and it seemed fun :-) Cheers! Johan [1] probably I should also add a method to pass the result of an effect as path parameter; it will start looking like the whole filter thing then. Perhaps it is better to make the SVG2 vector effects first. ________________________________ From: Josh Andler [mailto:scislac@...400...] Sent: donderdag 30 augustus 2007 2:57 To: Engelen, J.B.C. (Johan) Subject: Re: Curve Stitching first steps this is beyond cool... is it in the plans to stack LPEs at some point? Just wondering. :) Anyway, this is basically effect lines (with the exception of being able to "path on path" with the lines)! Woohoo! And it seems like this should really be helpful with one project in particular that I have occasionally thought of working on. I'll have to play with it a bit. 1 bug I found - on the object that has the two 2 node lines, select it and change to the pen tool. You'll see that it shows the ends of all the "stitch" lines as if they can be worked with using that tool (which doesn't work). 1 easy to reproduce crash - with either stitched object, use the node tool and select one of the two subpaths and hit Shift+R. Boom!

Re: [Inkscape-devel] translation not working
by unknown＠example.com 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

See the mailmessage below from the translator list. const EnumData<NR::FilterPrimitiveType> FPData[NR::NR_FILTER_ENDPRIMITIVETYPE] = { {NR::NR_FILTER_BLEND, _("Blend"), "svg:feBlend"}, ... }; Does this kind of C++ initialization work for translations? Perhaps the locale has not been set correctly when the _("Blend") is called at the start of the program? Probably we should switch to the N_() thing and do the real translation every time when the data is needed.

Fwd: [Inkscape-user] Inkscape is a staff pick at Apple downloads

As heathenx remarked Begin forwarded message: > From: heathenx <heathenx@...400...> > jiho wrote the following on 8/29/2007 9:37 AM: >> Looking for something else I just passed cross this on Apple's site: >> Inkscape is marked as staff pick by Apple currently. > [...] > i saw this on their web site: > > http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/inkscape.html > > "Note: On start-up, it will take a couple of minutes before the > main window appears (while the > application builds the font cache.)" > > ...a couple of minutes? are you serious? i don't use a mac but is > this what some of you go through? The text there is quite scarce and not very well formulated: About Inkscape A vector graphics editor (SVG format) featuring transparency, gradients, node editing, pattern fills, PNG export, and more. Aiming for capabilities similar to Illustrator, CorelDraw, Visio, etc. Note: On start-up, it will take a couple of minutes before the main window appears (while the application builds the font cache.) I tried to re-submit Inkscape as an Apple download, with updated information and a new screenshot but it is only at the end of this process that I realized that this would submit Inkscape under my name and developer ID. They will probably discard my request anyway, since Inkscape is already there, but it would be nice to know: - who subscripted as Apple Developers under the name "Inkscape developers" and hence posted Inkscape for the first time? - could this person update the information on the site. I can provide the information I wrote (taken from the front page an release notes), so it'll just be copy-paste, and here is my screenshot: http://jo.irisson.free.fr/dropbox/inkscape/inkscape.png Cheers, JiHO --- http://jo.irisson.free.fr/

Gradients.
by Tomasz Kobiela 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

Hi, I wonder why gradients in inkscape doesn't look smooth. When I look on them I see that they compose from regular lines. Can't gradients look so smooth like in photoshop or gimp ? --- Kind regards. Kobi.
