NEW: transformation centers remembered
by bulia byak 26 Jan '06

26 Jan '06

This feature is finally reimplemented correctly. Everyone please test heavily. I want to hear about any workflow or usability issues from all kinds of users. * The position of the center (axis) of rotation and skewing used by Selector is now remembered for all objects and is restored when you select those objects again (even after save and reload). When you move or scale an object, its rotation center is moved or scaled too, so its position relative to the object always remains the same. * Shift+click on the rotation center resets it back to the center of the object's box. * Consequently, dragging the transformation center is now an undoable action; you can press Ctrl+Z to undo the drag. Todo: - make use of this in keyboard transforms and Transform dialog; - make it work smartly for groups: if a group has center not set, return the center of the first object inside group with the center set -- bulia byak Inkscape.

Libre Graphics Meeting (France March 17-19)
by Bryce Harrington 25 Jan '06

25 Jan '06

Hi all, Several of us Inkscapers will be attending the Libre Graphics Meeting in Lyon, France March 17-19 2006, and we'd love it if more Inkscapers and OCALers (both developers and users) could attend. If we can get a quorum, we can have an Inkscape/OCAL meeting there during the conference. The conference itself will be free to attend. In addition to Inkscape and OCAL, GIMP, Scribus, Blender, Xara, Little CMS and other projects will be there. More info about the conference itself is available here: http://www.libregraphicsmeeting.org/ In addition, my dad and I are going to be touring around Europe (SE France, N Italy, Austria, S Germany), and would love to meet up with anyone in the area. Drop me a line if you're interested! Bryce

Command line arguments
by Tavmjong Bah 24 Jan '06

24 Jan '06

Hi, I have been playing around with the command line arguments and have a couple of questions: 1. Does -p or --print work? 2. What is the use of -z or --without-gui? What is the purpose of -g or --with-gui? Inkscape seems to do the correct thing without needing these. Thanks, Tav

embedded image performance
by Eric Wilhelm 24 Jan '06

24 Jan '06

Jon was right: "Then there's the size in memory that's needed for the full string node in the DOM tree, plus all the UI impact from having large strings kicking around, including the XML Editor window." The UberConverter is somewhat stuck creating embedded images because it is running on pipes, has to extracted embedded images from other formats, and I haven't layered 800 options onto it yet. This gave me a chance to play with inkscape during the debugging and the XML editor really crawls (this machine is getting old, but it's still dual AMD 2400's w/ 2GB ram.) I also noticed that if I save the svg out of inkscape, the linebreaks in the base64 data go away and gvim gets really mad, so there are a few issues to consider in any upcoming embedded image work on inkscape. http://scratchcomputing.com/tmp/bitmapfills.svgz I'm sure there's a way to do this better using <use> elements or something (particularly in this example, which has two instances of one image.) I'm just following the example from the embed_raster_in_svg.pl script for now. Suggestions welcome. --Eric -- [...proprietary software is better than gpl because...] "There is value in having somebody you can write checks to, and they fix bugs." --Mike McNamara --------------------------------------------------- http://scratchcomputing.com ---------------------------------------------------

Updated win32 gtk bundle
by Bob Jamison 23 Jan '06

23 Jan '06

Hi, all, It has been about a month since the last update of the gtk library bundle. It has been mentioned that there is a minor bug in the previous version of Gtk in the last bundle. Therefore I spent a bit of time adding new libs and re-7-zipping the collection. Here are the versions of the files, from the README.txt file: =========== 272,825 atk-1.10.3.zip 57,722 atk-dev-1.10.3.zip 137,243 cairo-1.0.2.zip 155,356 cairo-dev-1.0.2.zip 618,030 freetype-2.1.10-bin.zip 267,194 freetype-2.1.10-lib.zip 722,848 glib-2.8.5.zip 1,046,977 glib-dev-2.8.5.zip 5,133,574 gtk+-2.8.10.zip 3,355,532 gtk+-dev-2.8.10.zip 236,600 pango-1.10.2.zip 297,076 pango-dev-1.10.2.zip This replaces the following files from the previous bundle: 779,016 glib-2.8.4.zip 1,053,769 glib-dev-2.8.4.zip 3,044,443 gtk+-2.8.7.zip 3,315,784 gtk+-dev-2.8.7.zip 306,292 pango-1.10.1.zip 301,121 pango-dev-1.10.1.zip =========== Also, I'm going to commit the Makefile.mingw file that I have been using to provide Python-enabled builds. Since the previous bundle had the version of Python with pyxml installed, and it has been available for over a month, I guess it is about time to let others start using it. bob (ishmal)

www and a wiki party
by Aaron Spike 23 Jan '06

23 Jan '06

I attempted to fix all of the broken images that I could find in the inkscape_web module. Please svn up and check for any broken files, let me know if you find any. I'll keep fixing. Something still isn't right with publishing via svn. Seems that there are a lot of files in the webroot that are not group writable. Will anyone object if I drop the wp directory from svn? Before the new year I had taken an evening or two to see if I could switch the wiki to mediawiki. Perhaps we need to think about having a wiki party day, where we can concentrate on getting that content moved to another wiki with better anti-spam measures. Any comments? Aaron
