Hey guys, Rejoice! The dream of taking vector screenshots is real! Just sudo apt-get install apt-get install gtk-vector-screenshot and log out/in!
So, if you want to make a pixel-perfect mockup of a modification of some app, you no longer have dig through earlier mockups, to look for an [incomplete] mockup kit and hack things together - just take a fully-inkscapeable screenshot and hack away! The catch(es): * Works on GTK3 only, in particular only on Cairo-rendered parts (e.g. doesn't work for Audience) * The icons are raster, but that should not be a problem * The DPI is a bit off, but you can return things to original size by downscaling the result by the factor of 0.8 (at least on my machine) Here are some example screenshots I took: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5279564/gtk-vector-screenshot/granite-demo.svg https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5279564/gtk-vector-screenshot/pantheon-files.svg https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5279564/gtk-vector-screenshot/scratch.svg https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5279564/gtk-vector-screenshot/about.svg As Cassidy reminded recently, not every mockup should be pixel-perfect (see http://elementaryos.org/journal/design-process) but if you need one, making it just got a lot easier! -- Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff OS architect @ elementary
