Hi everybody,
I am currently trying to get inkscape running with gtk3/OSX-native. After quite a bit of struggling, I got everything compiled and executable. When I run inkscape, however, I get tons of assertions, the window looks terrible, is just barely responsive and completely unusable. The info on the web is not very conclusive, so I wonder:
* is inkscape OSX/native generally still in such a bad state or did I maybe not build it correctly? * is anyone working on this actively? * what is the state of inkscape/gtk3 in general? * What are the areas that require work to improve the situation? Perhaps, I could help out?
Generally, I used to use inkscape quite heavily several years ago on Linux and absolutely loved it. Today, I am forced to use OSX for work and would sometimes love to have inkscape available for some quick drawing task. The usability of the inkscape/gtk2/XQuark on OSX, however, has always put me off using inkscape altogether (booting Linux for every occasional quick drawing is just not an option). I would really love to see this situation improve.
Greetings, Norbert
