Hi All,
Following are the meeting notes for the dev meeting on 15th May:
Event: https://inkscape.org/cals/event/1/ Attending: Ishaan, Adam, Elendil (Krlr17), Martin, Mike, ScislaC, Tav, Vaibhav, Jonathan Next Event: May 23rd 2024
Martin: Some color refactoring work suggested by Mike Asked for some attention of the proof of concept and the method of using cairo and lcms2 to do the CMYK rendering.
Ishaan: Integrated CSS support in rubberbands, some weird artifacts but some suggestions on how to fix that - look in _update, setting cache to 0
Adam: created MR to reduce size of spin buttons. Reviewed lots of MRs too.
Some discussion on working color space vs rendering color space. Tav raised a concern that blending should be done in sRGB according to the SVG spec. Martin is aware that this is a departure from the spec but is required to render in CMYK.
Martin asked after the Hardware program. Pono needs to contact Vaibhav and Adam Belis and has been poked.
Tav and adam talk about wacom hardware crashes and the differences between 1.3 and 1.4 issues.
Some discussion on automated testing of Inkscape, some suggestions.
Some discussion on priorities - small papercuts over large time accumulate. A different program like BugFix Accelerator for such lower priority UX papercuts? Inbox is filled with duplicates which are not tagged as duplicates, Jonathan stumbled on clusters of those issues.
Vaibhav: - Fixed some alignment and padding regressions in the toolbars. - Worked on some regressions in the star toolbar. - Spent a lot of time to implement selection across different hierarchical levels in the layers dialog.
See you all next time!
