Hi Community,
I wrote some days ago about circular arrangement. I'm still busy writing a proposal document (which I need for the Software Engineering course, this project is part of). As soon as I finish, I'll let you know.
In the meantime, I've done some mockups, you can find at http://www.pasteall.org/pic/28214. Let me know what you think.
- The first part of the dialog("Anchor Point") is the point that should be used to arrange the objects on the circle. - The second part is used to select what the circle/ellipse/arc to put the objects on is. Note: I've put Radius x/y in there, because this allows to have ellipses. - The angles are used to describe an arc - Finnaly if Rotate objects is turned on, the objects on the circle will be rotated (e.g. If you're trying to arrange the stars in the european flag, you should turn this option off)
By the way, as someone suggested, I should put this feature in the "Rows and Columns" panel. As IMHO this panel is somewhat messy (especially the align selection), I also thought of ways to improve that.

Denis,
Things are shaping up nicely imho. Looking forward to the proposal document. Please do also consider summer of code if you have free time and are interested this summer. :)

Hi all,
I think I'm done now with the proposal, you can find it here. http://issuu.com/ddeclara/docs/inkscape_radial_arrangement
It would be great if someone could have a look at it or even just skim it.
