Subject: ANNOUNCEMENT: September PLUG Meeting MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT The Portland Linux/Unix Group will meet 7 PM Thursday Aug 3, 2006 at Portland State University in Smith Memorial Center Room 294 On the block bounded by SW Montgomery, SW Broadway (7th), SW Harrison, and SW Park (9th) ******************************************************************* PRESENTATION Inkscape by Bryce Harrington <bryce@...1...> Inkscape is an Open Source vector graphics editor, with capabilities similar to Illustrator, Freehand, CorelDraw, or Xara X using the W3C standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format. Supported SVG features include shapes, paths, text, markers, clones, alpha blending, transforms, gradients, patterns, and grouping. Inkscape also supports Creative Commons meta-data, node editing, layers, complex path operations, bitmap tracing, text-on-path, flowed text, direct XML editing, and more. It imports formats such as JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and others and exports PNG as well as multiple vector-based formats. Inkscape's main goal is to create a powerful and convenient drawing tool fully compliant with XML, SVG, and CSS standards. We also aim to maintain a thriving user and developer community by using open, community-oriented development process, and by making sure Inkcape is easy to learn, to use, and to extend. ******************************************************************* Agenda: 7:00 - 7:30 Business We will discuss the status of our ongoing projects including PLUG's monthly Advanced Topics meetings, PLUG's monthly hands on clinics, PLUG for Education, etc. 7:30 - 8:30 Presentation See above 9:00 - ...

Biznix which specializes in Linux and UNIX support for the Business Computer User. As I understand, they haven't been meeting for a while, but intend to have regular meetings again in 2006. See http://www.Biznix.org for details. P.S. BLUEgroup (The Beaverton Linux Users Education Group) is a group geared toward new users or those interested in learning more about Linux. BLUE group meets on the 4th Thursday of every month (except Thanksgiving and Christmas) at the corner of Beaverton Hillsdale Hwy and Western ave. See www.BLUEgroup.org for details. P.S. PDXLUG provides a less formal alternative to PLUG emphasizing the needs of new users. PDXLUG meets every second Thursday of the month in southeast Portland. See http://www.PDXLUG.org for details. P.S. The Mid Willamette Valley Linux Users Group meets at 6:30 PM on the first Tuesday of the month. They have out grown their meeting location at PEAK and are now meeting on the OSU campus. See http://www.lug.corvallis.or.us/ for details. P.S. The Eugene Linux Users Group meets several times a month.

DebugDialog
by T P 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

I found the DebugDialog code but was confused when setting dialogs.debug to 1 in preferences.xml didn't show the dialog. So I changed the code in inkscape.cpp, line 573: if (use_gui == TRUE && prefs_get_int_attribute("dialogs.debug", "redirect", DEFAULT_LOG_REDIRECT)) { Inkscape::UI::Dialogs::DebugDialog::getInstance()->captureLogMessages(); Inkscape::UI::Dialogs::DebugDialog::showInstance(); } Is this the right way to do this?

Open Clip Art Library's ccHost now accepts SVG files and using up-to-date ccHost pre-3.0SVN
by Jon Phillips 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

Hello all, I have enabled the great work that Roan has done on adapting getid3 to use SVG and XML and glued in this work. His work seems to work great thus far. I changed a few values on in the .htaccess file (which solves many of the woes ccHost folks complain about and is a good way to do this with an service provider...another email for that) Anyhow, this now opens the testing phase for uploading compliant SVG files that you all are dedicate to the public domain. There are several tasks that still need to be done before we move over, however, I think we are within 1-2 days if some of you are dedicated to rocking this out. I'm inclined to move over to this new infrastructure as soon as possible...like by yesterday! The largest features we need before switching over are: 1.) export of our content from the old system to the new one 2.) SVG thumbnails 3.) writing metadata to SVG files in getid3 4.) migration of old web content from old site to the new one The tasks are listed on the wiki (http://openclipart.org/wiki/index.php/CcHost#Phase_1). How about we divide and conquer these task? Are there tasks that you all would like to sign up for, or are already working on? I will sign up for a task if you all sign up for some :) I'm thinking to do either number 4 or number 2 in the above list. ### Otherwise, one of the greatest ways you can help out is by uploading your SVG clip art to this test site now, leaving comments, testing out features, emailing the list or chatting if there are issues. ### If you have administrative access, try out the various features of the site. There are several new ones since we first started this migration, such as Manage Files: http://openclipart.org/cchost/media/admin/files/manage This feature allows for one to manage the files for the site without having to login with SSH...pretty cool... Please help out Open Clip Art Library move over to the new infrastructure. Jon -- Jon Phillips jon@...158... cell: 510.499.0894 Software Engineer Creative Commons www.creativecommons.org

tileable patterns
by none none 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

Inkscape is really cool but there's one feature that I'd like to se, either as a plugin or part of inkscape and that is the ability to easily create tileable patterns. Given that svg supports using SVG files as patterns this would be beneficial to plenty of people. I envisage some kind of tileable mode where anything you move beyond a given side of the document appears automatically on the opposite side. This way you could preview your tile while creating it Thanks!

Google Summer of Code final surveys
by Bryce Harrington 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

Note that the end of the Google SoC is coming up. The final surveys will be posted tomorrow, and will be due Friday, Sept 8th. The due date for the student to have their code posted to the mentor was the 21st, and Google is recommending that mentors base their evaluation on what had been completed by 08:00 on Aug 21st. Good luck everyone and thanks for participating! Bryce

Filter status
by Tavmjong Bah 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

Hi, After reading a tantalizing entry in the SVN log file, I just had to give the latest version a try at loading SVG drawings that use filters. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r12970 | kiirala | 2006-08-25 20:40:13 +0200 (Fri, 25 Aug 2006) | 3 lines Fixed a crash in modifying filter parameters in XML editor. Fixed filters not appearing, when a file with filters is loaded. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Gaussian Blur example from my book loaded quite nicely: http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/images/XMLEDIT/GaussianBlur.svg There are some display issues when the zoom level is greater than 100% (horizontal discontinuities appear) but overall a very nice development. I tried varying the blur radius with the XML editor but the drawing was not updated. The Drop Shadow example loaded but did not display correctly. http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/images/XMLEDIT/DropShadow.svg I got a number of error messages: (inkscape:718): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from `SPFeOffset' to `SPGaussianBlur' (inkscape:718): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from `SPFeOffset' to `SPGaussianBlur' (inkscape:718): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from `SPFeMerge' to `SPGaussianBlur' This begs the question, what is the status of filter support? A couple of other notes. When reloading the Gaussian Blur file with a modified blur radius, Inkscape crashed with the error message: ** ERROR **: file sp-object.cpp: line 861 (void SPObject::releaseReferences()): assertion failed: (this->hrefcount == 0) aborting... Trying to drag the right resize handle of the text box doesn't work; dragging the left handle does. It's great to see the progress made with SVG filter support! Tav

Is your University interested in installing Inkscape for all students are you making a speculative suggestion in the hope that they might do it if it were easier? > > There are two standard responses to that: [that being the question of MSI support] > > 1) Why? > > 2) Yes please!

This request against NSIS for MSI support may also be of interest http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=867084&group_id=22… As I first thought your best bet is to take a closer look at using the /SILENT option in NSIS.
