New subject: Inkscape speed advice

7 Mar 2016

      Hello,
     I'm planning to update my desktop in goal of accelerating runing of inkscape since it runs too slow on my old one. 
     Can you guys give me some advices on this?
Thanks!

I like the reordered layout although it does rely on a tooltip to
explain the use of the miter-length selector.
You never know what uses people will find for putting markers behind
the stroke so I would just go ahead and put icons for all six
combinations (two rows of three), making the marker in the icon a bit
larger so it sticks out.
That's true, I've made a draft stab at some actual icons here:
https://inkscape.org/en/~doctormo/%E2%98%85paint-order-icons
If anyone wants to have a crack at it, these ones are based on the
strait line and the order of the items is the order they paint. So it
should signify the effect pretty clearly.
Martin,

Hi guys,
I was away over the weekend, so I'm sorry I couldn't contribute to the
board meeting.  Bryce/Tav, has the Hackfest room booking quote been
signed yet?
Best wishes,
Alex

Argh, totally forgot about this today. Any important updates?
We skipped the hackfest discussions, although a couple questions were
raised.  For GSoC sounds like things are going well on our end, but
student applications / contacts are on the light side.  Martin gave a
detailed overview of the state of the website, and then post-meeting he
and I discussed the funded project system briefly.  The meeting ended
pretty short, we'll do another one on April 1st at noon pacific.

http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Board_Meetings
Shortened Agenda is:

Hackfest 2016
GSoC 2016
Other business

If time permits we'll tackle some of remaining topics from last meeting,
but I'd like to keep the meeting to under an hour for folks, and to
reserve as much as necessary for the hackfest and gsoc planning work.
I'm hoping to be there for the start of the meeting, but it'll be tricky
with another meeting at 4pm EST. So hopefully I can find a tea shop to
base camp.

Actually I'd keep a constant order (and also size and position) of all 
items and just change the layering...
The idea to use item order to visualize paint order is nice, but it's 
too hard to figure out what stroke and fill are when items are moving 
around (especially given the small size), so the intended effect is not 
achieved and it actually gets harder to figure out the paint order.

JFYI, I've almost finished implementing a GUI for paint-order.

Neat... what does it look like? :D
Do you still need icons for it? Does the implementation use icons? :)

Hi,
...
...
I agree. Inkscape should respect global click+drag threshold here.
It does(I tested it, and modified it, and it behaved as expected)
...
I can't think of a reason to have box-zoom on zoom-out though. It's
counter-intuitive to suddenly zoom in when trying to zoom out.
That seems very reasonable, so I just fixed it in trunk (r14692).
