Point in right direction, r11962 bugs
Hi guys,
I'm trying to find a good python library to access the SVG DOM, similar to the way Javascript does it. Is there any lib around that you can recommend for that? pySVG, SVGwrite, pyjs is what I managed to find references to. pyjs seems to me to be the most complete. But I would figure that Inkscape does access the SVG DOM to manipulate objects as well? Am I missing something here?
Cheers,
Jelle
P.S. As I can't post on the bugtracker (doesn't route in China for some reason), I'll post it here.

Dropshadow tool As great as the new dropshadow color setting is, using the color picker to select a color will change the color of the parent object and the dropshadow rather than the dropshadow itself.
Symbols Symbols are made using lines rather than outlines. Though I can understand why to do it that way (smaller size), it leads to problems when converting them to groups as lines will inherit not the settings from the symbol, but from the current line settings. I think all symbols should be created in outlines, similar to fonts, to prevent problems. I guess engravers will like it that way better as well, but not sure about that. I'm not sure if the symbol to group setting is supposed to behave like that either. Seems illogical to me.

Not a lot of details you offer here, so I'm just assuming you refer

Hello Suv,
Today, I managed to read the bugtracker posts to referred to. Hooray,.. logging in though was still a dud,.. probably due to a 3 sec timeout limit. (connection to Europe = ping + 900ms for GFW + 900ms for NSA ~ 3s).

Yup,.. change is applied to all objects selected. So the target is not just the dropshadow style setting. Doesn't sound to me as the color picker needing to be context aware, I would think it just reads a color and sends it to whatever function/menu is active. Seems it now sets the style for the target object. The drop shadow does change as well, so far so good.

Hmm,.. most curious. I tested it again and now it works like expected. Earlier today I had 0 result from trying to fill an area with a 3px boundary. But I guess I must have been low on mem or something buggy going on on my machine. All default settings as far as I am aware. Maybe something with a first run and some config missing?
I noticed when I double click the color indicator (left bottom corner) and the fill and stroke menu is docked minimized, it doesn't pop up automatically, the way it used to. Restarted Inkscape to see if it reproduced, but yes.. this time it did. A small bug, but bad for productivity.
Zoomed in view and manipulation of blurred objects is still pretty slow, but already a great improvement over previous speeds. In general though there is a great overall improvement in everything I tried.
Kudos.
