can't save document bg colour changes

Hello all!
If I open an SVG file, then modify the document bg colour, and press Ctrl+S, I get that "No changes need to be saved". So in order to change the bg and save the file, I have to move some object back and forth and then Inkscape saves everything well as "there are changes needed to be saved" ;-)
So the obvious solution would probably be to toggle the "modified" status on document bg colour change.

...and offer a 'force save' mode anyway.

What do you mean by this? Force the user to save after every change? Already if you close the document and it has been modified, it will ask you if you want to save.

hi!
I was trying to load the Livarot lib from sourceforge and compile the tesT_main.cpp app in visual c++ 6.0 (forgive if I post this question here but I can't reach the author on his mail address and inkscape includes the livarot lib too, so..). After a few problems I got the file to compile under visual c++ but I am unable to build it as the linker throws me a lot of LNK2001 errors like:
test_main.obj : error LNK2001: Nichtaufgeloestes externes Symbol "public: static void __cdecl Buffer::BuildCorrTable(void)" (?BuildCorrTable@...343...@@SAXXZ) test_main.obj : error LNK2001: Nichtaufgeloestes externes Symbol "public: void __thiscall Buffer::OutputJPEG(char *)" (?OutputJPEG@...343...@@QAEXPAD@...344...)
etc.. what am I doing wrong here ? Also, my goal is to build a dll to which I can input two svg-pathes command-strings (from the attribute "d") and make a bool operation on it and return the new path-string... any hint on that?
Next... I was trying to build a java applet for my final work at the university and this applet should have a "calligraphic pen" tool just like inkscape has. Now the pain is that my c++ knowledge is pretty low I am originally coming from Pascal.. I tried to extract the code from the dyna-draw file but without success there're so many depencies on it.. any hint on that one? I need to create an array of points for a bezier curve with the calligraphic pen tool...
Thank you very very much for helping me with these two problems to finally finish my work at the university and getting hopefully a good mark!!
thanks a lot again, Joe

hi!
Anyone knows some help for me about compiling the livarot stuff without the reference error thing? Please...
thanks, Joe

No. A dialogue saying, 'No changes have been made' with 'Save Anyway' and 'Continue' buttons.
But, as somebody pointed out in an off-list mail, it's a bit redundant. Elimination the bugs for detecting changes is better.

Hi Artemio,
This should now be fixed in CVS.

Cool! You guys are the fastest bugfixing team I know in the whole OSS world! ;-)
Good luck!
