Libre Graphics Meeting website
by David Neary 03 Nov '05

03 Nov '05

Hi all, The Libre Graphics Meeting website is online at http://www.libregraphicsmeeting.org - it's still pretty sparse, and is powered by spip. If anyone would like to be a writer or editor for the site, please contact me off-list, and I'll sort you out. People with some design sense especially appreciated :) Proposed edits to existing pages are welcome too, but I'm a bit busy at the moment, so becoming a writer or editor's probably quicker :) Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Neary bolsh@...85...

Nope. We already have that. This would be a special case of the same functionality. Aaron Spike

Now, just for the record and Google too: To have the "Whiteboard" menu appear after compiling inkscape with the --enable-inkboard option you should first delete your menus.xml file (in ~/.inkscape/menus.xml) Thanks again...

Hoe to use the inkboard
by Lucas Vieites 02 Nov '05

02 Nov '05

Hi, I've compiled from cvs enabling inkboard (with the --enable-inkboard parameter at configure time) but now I can't figure out how to use it. Is there supposed to be a new menu or menu item to connecto to a Jabber server?

I'm usually against wasted space, but I think this image block gives the page a little peace and quite. The reader isn't immediately confronted by thick blocks of text. The flag draws together the colors. It could be any object. But the flag is a simple, clean vector. And displaying the magnified version in the background shows resolution independence without adding a lot of noise. Aaron Spike

sepA/Erator

Everyone has a pet peeve. Mine is spelling errors, especially those that people make ALL THE TIME. Among these, "seperate" instead of "separate" is definitely in the top three. And now I see it again, and where? Right in the Inkscape code! Ted, can you please replace the <seperator> element in your menu XML with a correctly spelled version? (After the release, that is.) Thanks! -- bulia byak Inkscape. Draw Freely. http://www.inkscape.org
