Bugs making it hard to translate tutorials
by Daniel Stiefelmaier 24 Sep '05

24 Sep '05

Hi! While i translated the basic tutorial i came across some things. Some are caused by KDE, some might be bugs, some are caused by my german keyboard layout. As there will be customizable keybindings, some problems might dissolve gracefully... :) There should be default keybindings for different keyboardlayouts then. Well, here are the trouble makers: :) - There is no gradient tool if i press ctrl-f1 - the edit menu should contain the Esc key for unselcting all. - alt+klick does not work with kde, its used there. if its possible, id override the kde setting. if not, there should be a second way to do that. Maybe Alt-Gr. (meta?) - i cant use ` or shift- ` ... in fact, i need to press shift to create an ` . Hard to press Shift+` if you need shift to create ` :) so, no zooming with that key! if we will have localized defaults, id recommend our # / ' key or the ä/ö keys for german. - rotate slow with shift+[ ] does not work. i need to use alt-gr+8 or 9 for [ ]. maybe that causes trouble. oh, btw... we could scale in one direction with crtl-alt+numpad... RFE for that? :) hm... and shift to scale in two directions? okay... think that was it... Caliga

Aso... jo, hatte halt schon länger keinen IE mehr am laufen :) > Vielleicht doch mal das auskommentierte meta-Element mit der > zusätzlichen Kodierung mitschicken. Ok, gemacht... Falls es immer noch nicht stimmt, muss man wohl am Apache rumschrauben... Bitte berichten :) Danke für's melden. Caliga

Hallo, Thomas! Nein, die Seite ist korrekt kodiert. Normalerweise sollte der Browser automatisch die Kodierung auf UTF-8 einstellen, dann stimmt die Darstellung. Im Quelltext werden die Umlaute natürlich nur mit einem UTF-8 fähigen Editor korrekt angezeigt. Ich bitte zu beachten, dass UTF-8 nichts mit HTML-Entities zu tun hat. (wie & auml; o.ä.) Welchen Browser verwendest du in dem die Seite falsch dargestellt wird?

Xara / SVG translator project
by Bryce Harrington 23 Sep '05

23 Sep '05

Got some good news... Eric Wilhelm, developer of the Uber-Converter and member of the Inkscape community, is being sponsored by Xara to develop a graphics converter to allow Xara and Inkscape users to more easily share documents. Xara's full press release is here: http://www.xara.com/press/pressrelease.asp This tool will benefit both Xara and Inkscape. Xara will gain support for an important graphics file format quickly becoming a standard in the Open Source community. Inkscape will gain a new file converter that will allow Inkscape users to more seamlessly convert to and from Xara. In addition, due to Uber-converter's "hub" architecture, this may enable support for several further file formats. For some background... this effort came about after Charles Moir of Xara and I had some discussions about how Xara could become more involved in the Open Source community and the Inkscape community in particular. Since Xara does not yet support SVG, a xar2svg/svg2xar effort was clearly a logical first step. With Xara providing this code under the GPL, it makes a valuable contribution to the community, too! Anyway, it's great to welcome Xara to the Inkscape community; I hope we'll be able to work together with them even more closely in the future. Bryce

I received a mail form one Carsten Goetze the other day asking how to submit an effect for inclusion in the inkscape distribution. Every time I tried to reply my mail was rejected by the remote server. Carsten, if you read these lists, I'm sorry that I wasn't able to get back to you immediately. Please post your effect to the patch tracker <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93438&atid=604308> and send a mail the the mailing lists to encourage everyone to test your work. Aaron Spike

Great, thanks! Kees, can you point Jonathan towards the build instructions for OSX? Bryce
