This RC has the following features:

• clipboard now fully working. The problem was inside the gtk2 library,

On Lion:

Fixed: - Paste e.g. as PDF into Preview.app (New from Clipboard), or as PNG if pasted into a PNG image viewed in Preview.app.

Works as before: - Paste as new layer or new document in GIMP 2.8.2 (GTK+/Quartz). - Paste as path(s) into GIMP 2.8.2 if GIMP uses patched GTK+ as well (local build)

Now broken: - Paste as path into GIMP.app (uses older, unpatched GTK+), or a local GIMP build using unpatched GTK+ 2.24.14. The clipboard content from RC2 on the other hand could be pasted as path into GIMP with unpatched GTK+.

and I fixed with this patch: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692123 GIMP and Darktable would benefit from this patch too.

Regression with patched GTK+ 2.24.14: - Drag&Drop (import) from the Finder onto Inkscape's canvas no longer works in RC3 (but works ok with RC2). AFAICT this was introduced by the GTK+ patch (my local builds using the patched version of GTK+ 2.24.14 are now also affected).

• OSX Menu fully functional with OSX-style mnemonics

Nice to have the keyboard shortcuts displayed in the main menus now - was this changed in Inkscape's sources, in gtk-mac-integration, or yet another patch for GTK+?

Bug (worked in RC2), blocker: - 'h', 'v' trigger a keyboard shortcut (flip horizontally, vertically) when typed while editing a text object on canvas (the text object is flipped instead of the letter being inserted). - 'Shift+G' converts the text to guides instead of inserting 'G' (text object is deleted, with default preferences). - '#', '|', '%' trigger the associated verb, instead of being inserted into the current text object. - ... (possibly I missed some of the shortcuts without modifiers which are used for menu items).

"OSX-style mnemonics" replacing current shortcuts: Please consider keeping the original default shortcuts for the zoom level presets: the "OSX-style mnemonics" with the 'Cmd' modifier can be added as additional keymapping, without redefining (aka removing) the existing shorter ones. The attribute 'display="true"' would be moved to the "OSX-style mnemonics" (to be displayed in the menus).

• uniconverter 1.1.5 + sk1lib 0.9.1, cdr import works great.

Confirmed (Lion)

• ghostscript bundled with the app: importing postscript works great

Confirmed (Lion)

• "open recent" working in Lion release too

Confirmed (Lion)

Problems I see:

• the context-menu (right click on object) lack the "Cmd" mnemonic. This

is a gtk problem. Mnemonics are correct but gtk lacks the symbol/icon for the Apple/Cmd key. I think it might be better to leave it for the gtk2/quartz team to fix this.

The "Cmd" mnemonic is also missing in the tooltips of toolbar icons - this is a usability issue (mainly for new users): the shortcuts displayed in the tooltips are wrong (they don't work or trigger a different tool/command than expected). Also mentioned in https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1097539

Please let me know how it works for you,

Needs fixing: - Conflict between text tool context and "OSX-style mnemonics" of menu items which don't use a modifier

Would be nice to have fixed: - Import via Drag&Drop from Finder onto Inkscape's canvas - mnemonic 'Cmd' displayed in tooltips and context menus

Desktop integration: - Opening a document by dropping it onto the Inkscape icon opens two Inkscape windows: a "new" one (based on the default template), then a second one with the dropped document. With the old launcher (0.48.2), the first document window is reused for the dropped file (same happens if opening a file from within Inkscape).

Giving up ;-) on - adding back '/System/Library/Fonts' to the font path for fontconfig - including librsvg-based SVG loader to gdk-pixbuf2

Not giving up ;-) on - a branch with the current changes to Inkscape's sources themselves (beyond the changes to the packaging scripts) pushed to launchpad, before any "official" binary packages are distributed.

Nice to have the keyboard shortcuts displayed in the main menus now - was this changed in Inkscape's sources, in gtk-mac-integration, or yet another patch for GTK+?

I have added a patch on the trunk (998276) to display the keyboard shortcuts under Unity (and hopefully OS X) . Thanks Valerio for the tip on the missing accelerators !

yes, great !

pasting in inkscape doesn't seem to work on Lion, ie : Preview.app selection -> Inkscape

Confirmed: import via clipboard e.g. from Preview.app does not work in RC3 yet, and now is broken in GIMP too (local 2.8.2 build) if GIMP uses the patched GTK+ version (*). In GIMP, 'New from Clipboard' fails (nothing on the clipboard), or even may causes GIMP to crash when trying to paste raster image data copied in Preview.app into a new layer).

Gimp X11 -> Inkscape

Since pasting into Quartz-based Inkscape.app doesn't work from native OS X apps, I'd not expect that pasting from an X11-based application via X11/XQuartz pasteboard syncing service magically works, against all odds.

Pasting raster image data from X11-based applications also depends on the X11 preferences for the pasteboard: if off automatic syncing is disabled, as is recommended for X11-based Inkscape, the X11-clipboard data does not get synced to the OS X pasteboard anyway. If turned on, it is possibly to paste e.g. from an X11-based GIMP 2.8.2 into a Quartz-based GIMP 2.8.2 if using an unpatched GTK+/Quartz stack, but crashes GIMP 2.8.2 on paste if using the patched GTK+/Quartz stack.

Quartz-based Inkscape.app doesn't import from the clipboard yet (AFAICT it does not matter whether the clipboard content originates from the X11 sync service, another GTK+/Quartz based application or a native OS X application).

X11-support (or communicating with the pasteboard syncing service of X11/XQuartz) is probably not the highest priority for a new "native" GTK+/Quartz-based package of Inkscape - AFAIU first the support for the native (OS X) pasteboard needs to work in Inkscape (import and export of supported clipboard targets, and Drag&Drop from the Finder as well).

thanks i understand ! It was indeed not a very useful test..!
