Fwd: [cairo] SVG Scene Toolkit update

----- Forwarded message from Liam Breck <svg@...808...> ----- Date: Tue, 14 Jun 2005 18:01:18 -0400 From: Liam Breck <svg@...808...> Reply-To: Liam Breck <svg@...808...> Subject: [cairo] SVG Scene Toolkit update To: cairo@...278... We've posted a new release of the... SVG Scene/Canvas Library for cairo & Pango http://networkimprov.net/airwrx/awscene.html This release deepens the SVG support with paths and shapes, and renders to a cairo Win32 surface. (Text and images are rendered via Win32 GDI at this point - Pango coming soon.) It includes an example app and a build of cairo for Windows. The SVG Scene toolkit enables applications to create views by constructing an SVG content model, or scene. (This functionality is also called a canvas.) The scene may be displayed simultaneously in multiple windows, possibly on separate clients. Rendering of the scene is done via cairo and Pango, which in turn support diverse environments, e.g. Windows, MacOS, Postscript, Xlib, etc. The scene may be manipulated by multiple processes, enabling compound documents. The SVG Scene library supports ownership of content model elements by widgets of high-level application frameworks, but is not tied in to such frameworks. The current release is a prototype that requires Windows 2000 or later. Full source code is included, licensed under GNU LGPL. Feedback requested! Liam Breck Network Improv Boston, Mass.

question on Google's Summer of Code
by Jeon Jeongho 14 Jun '05

14 Jun '05

Hello. I'm interested in Google's Summer of Code. = resume starts = I am a little aged student of Electrical Engineering, Seoul National University. I have worked IBM solution SI (for 1 year), P2P LEGAL! ;) multimedia streaming server development at Korean top portal NAVER (for 2 years), and intranet and internet board game developments as part-time job. On opensource, I'm leading document translation projects (apache httpd, linux gazette) and have made minor patches (on i18n). I can speak C++, but I'm mainly using C, Java, Perl, Python. = resume ends = I plan to make many presentation format (PDF, swf, SVG, XSL-FO, CSS for print, ...) creation/convert tool/library. There are many good opensource tools/libraries. But I'm concerned about i18n (especially CJK) and (from the latest spec) new feature support. Then I'll evaluate them each, and choose one or start from scratch. I learned Google's offer from the new, and found that Inkscape's vector format import/export project and my goal overlap. Please let me know what I can do for Inkscape, within summer or without just summer limit. +-----------------------------+----------------------------------------+ | Jeon, Jeong ho | http://www.myscan.org/~mahajjh/ | | electrical engineering, | mahajjh@...834... | | seoul national univ. | si hoc legere scis nimium eruditiones habes :-) +-----------------------------+----------------------------------------+

Autopackage wiki page
by Mike Hearn 14 Jun '05

14 Jun '05

Hi guys, Aaron has added a wiki page CompilingAutopackage to describe what must be done. Remember, in much the same way that they can install anywhere, they can be built anywhere too. That means they can be improved anywhere! So, I'd like to ask all Inkscape developers to take a quick look at the specfile, and make sure it's as you see fit. The basic stuff is things like checking the dependencies are OK, more advanced stuff would be packaging plugins and extensions too. I'd really like to push the idea that like with Windows/Mac software, packaging is a part of the development process and should be considered as a feature rather than something that somebody does mechanically at the last minute. Let me know if there are any questions, and I'll hopefully be sending in some patches this summer. thanks -mike

Spanish translation & string correction
by Lucas Vieites 13 Jun '05

Hi, I'm attaching the updated spanish po file. I found the following string and I think there might be an error there: gradient-drag.cpp: 654: "%s for: %s%s; drag with <b>Ctrl</b> to snap angle, with <b>Ctrl +Alt</b> to preserve angle, with <b>Ctrl+Alt</b> to scale around center" It says Ctrl+Alt twice for different actions Cheers, -- Lucas Vieites Fariña Dept.

Change layer name "(root)" to "(Background)"?
by Colin Marquardt 13 Jun '05

13 Jun '05

Hi, the layer name "(root)" is not translatable until now - I filed the following patch for it: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1219305&group_id=9… As it says there, should we maybe change the "(root)" to "(Background)"? Gimp 2.2 uses this word, so unless calling this the "root" is vector graphics parlance, I think we should switch. This also comes from my inability to find a nice translation for "root" that doesn't look strange in that context. :) Cheers, Colin -- < This line left intentionally blank to confuse you. >
