new cursors problem
by bulia byak 08 Feb '06

08 Feb '06

The new cursors recently committed by Scislac don't work for me on win2k. They are shown as a white square and a stream of warnings goes on the console like: (inkscape-console.exe:368): Gdk-WARNING **: gdkdrawable-win32.c:1323: LineTo fai led Does anyone know a fix for this? If not, sadly but this patch will have to be backed out. -- bulia byak Inkscape. Draw Freely. http://www.inkscape.org

icon prerendering debug output
by bulia byak 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

Can we PLEASE turn these off already? Haven't the authors collected all the data they needed from it, by now? It's SO annoying. As a general rule, please avoid adding debug output unless you have a genuine purpose of collecting information from all developers and svn users, and even in that case, please don't forget to remove it soon enough. -- bulia byak Inkscape.

connector layout
by Tim Dwyer 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

Hi All, I recently added the "rectangle overlap removal" algorithm to inkscape and received so much useful feedback (advice, testing and so on) throughout the process that I'm now quite keen to start another project. The connector stuff that was introduced in 0.43 is a really powerful concept and makes inkscape much more of a "diagramming" tool. Between the connector routing and the overlap removal stuff we have the basics of some nice automatic diagram layout. I'd like to continue this by incorporating some "graph layout" algorithms to adjust the positions of objects at the end of connectors to achieve things like minimal crossing of connectors and to better show coupling and cohesion in the network (graph) defined by the connectors. I'd appreciate any feedback people have on this idea. Also, I'd really like to use the boost 'graph' libraries to get this happening quickly. Boost already has some basic layout algorithms which we can use right away, but I'll also need the underlying graph data-structures and algorithms in boost to implement new algorithms. What are the logistics of adding boost to the inkscape dependency tree? I've noticed similar requests for boost in the inkscape-devel archives... it seems like I'm not the only one who would benefit. Looking forward to your comments, Cheers Tim

recent commits: purged includes
by Ralf Stephan 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

ello, in the last days, of about 5500 include lines, over 2200 were removed by a simple program that, for every include, tried to compile the source without it. After a first run, problems were identified and handled by removing overgenerous includes from the most important headers. Also, the problem of non-indented ifdefed includes turned up and needed manual intervention. For this reason, it is possible that compilation in some cases barfs because of overzealous removing. Another annoying tidbit is the removal of non-indented includes of config.h. The about two dozen cases will be rewritten the next days and should not affect compilation in most cases. Finally, some includes were removed of the respective header belonging to the source file. This does not affect compilation at all but might annoy some people writing in the source later on. Please bear with the side effects. I firmly believe that they are worth it all. A log file of the removal is available on request. All in all, a 1.5 GHz computer with 2.5" hard disk needed 12 hours full work for it. Thanks for your patience, ralf

Help: Suitable cast to satisfy the below problem.

Hello, I'm trying to hack Inkscape 0.4.3 to compile on Solaris 10 x86, with Sun Studio 11. Right now i'm stuck at the following: CC -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I/opt/csw/include/freetype2 -I/opt/csw/include -D_REENTRANT -DORBIT2=1 -I/opt/csw/include/gnome-vfs-2.0 -I/opt/csw/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/include -I/opt/csw/include/bonobo-activation-2.0 -I/opt/csw/include/libbonobo-2.0 -I/opt/csw/include/gconf/2 -I/opt/csw/include/glib-2.0 -I/opt/csw/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/opt/csw/include/orbit-2.0 -I/opt/csw/include -I/opt/csw/include/freetype2 -DPOTRACE=\"potrace\" -D_REENTRANT -I/opt/csw/include/gdkmm-2.4 -I/opt/csw/lib/gdkmm-2.4/include -I/opt/csw/include/glibmm-2.4 -I/opt/csw/lib/glibmm-2.4/include -I/opt/csw/include/pangomm-1.4 -I/opt/csw/include/gtk-2.0 -I/opt/csw/lib/gtk-2.0/include -I/opt/csw/include/sigc++-2.0 -I/opt/csw/lib/sigc++-2.0/include -I/opt/csw/include/glib-2.0 -I/opt/csw/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/opt/csw/include/pango-1.0 -I/opt/csw/include/cairo -I/opt/csw/include/gtkmm-2.4 -I/opt/csw/lib/gtkmm-2.4/include -I/opt/csw/include/atkmm-1.6 -I/opt/csw/include/atk-1.0 -I/opt/csw/include/libxml2 -I/opt/csw/include -I/opt/csw/include/gtkspell-2.0 -I../cxxtest -I/opt/csw/include -g -c -o sp-item.o sp-item.cpp "display/nr-arena-item.h", line 112: Warning: arena hides NRArenaItem::arena.

"sp-item.cpp", line 310: Warning: repr hides SPObject::repr. 2 Error(s) and 5 Warning(s) detected. I suspect I need to correctly cast "reverse_list<SPObject::SiblingIterator>( SP_OBJECT_PARENT(this)->firstChild(), this)," (line 284 of sp-item.cpp) so that it resolves to "reverse_list(InputIterator start, InputIterator end)" in reverse-list.h. Am I right about this? If so, could someone enlighten me on how to cast it correctly? (I'm no C++ expert). Many thanks in advance. :) -- Regards, Jeremy

SCALE Booth
by Ted Gould 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

Okay, we have a booth, now what do we want to do with it? First off, who's coming? I've got me, John Taber and Jon Cruz. Jon Phillips? Bryce, I know how you love LAX! Josh, I know how much a Southwest flight from Phoenix is, come for a day! I was wondering if we couldn't do something like "mini-tutorials" at the booth. The idea would be that they would be like 5 minutes, people standing, and cover just a single feature of Inkscape. Then, we could make a flier covering that same feature -- which would give us interesting give aways for the rest of the time. If we did one each hour, we'd need roughly 16 of them. We could make a schedule, it might generate traffic. What do people think? Maybe the same 8 twice (two day conference)? I was also thinking that we need some artwork, perhaps the About screens? They say Inkscape on them, yet still show off features? Brainstorming people, argue, attack, kill my ideas! Go! :) --Ted

SCALE Fliers
by Ted Gould 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

Back to what I was trying to do... I made up some fliers for handouts/mini-tutorials at the Inkscape booth. I've got four of them. They are at: http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/inkscape/inkscape_marketing/trunk/fli… I would love it if people could look at them, suggest improvements, or even write some of their own if they're so inclined. Thanks, Ted

How do I get the tree on the given date from svn? Following the instructions does not work: $ svn update --revision {2005-12-19} svn: REPORT request failed on '/svnroot/inkscape/!svn/vcc/default' svn: Cannot replace a directory from within Or do I have to go back to CVS for dates before the conversion to svn? -- bulia byak Inkscape.
