Re: [Qgis-developer] Final Logo Pick

2013-05-15 Thread Werner Macho
Hi !

yeah I like the bottom one of #394 .. but it's not in the voting ..
Nathan has a really hard job to do to do this ..

From his screenshots I have to say .. although the design is simple and
clean it does not fit as an icon ..
I wonder if we should not do such photoshopped screenshots from all the
designs that made it to the last round .. and I wonder why #394 has not
been considered ..
taking the facts from nathan I'd say #420 would give a nice Icon .. but it
is not even rated .. :(

Probably we all now know what the User would like ..
But I would suggest to let the PSC go through ALL of the suggestions again
considering the design of the User-voted .. and choose a cool one
(but that would be probably after the contest).. winning does not
necessarily mean that we HAVE to choose it or does it?

kind regards
Werner

since the author of #50 and #394 is the same, it must be possible to use it
if one wins the contest.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Context help - locale (Consider country?)

Hi Matthias,

 Can you give me a hint on where to find what you have done with the

scripts/update_ts_files.sh (ie. scripts/qgm2cpp.pl)

I think we also still need something alike for the algorithm descriptions in
sextante - didn't look into that.

 +1 for an embedded webkit widget somewhere. Right now the help  is a 
 separate process and I see no reason for or benefit of this, but the 
 behavior that it does not close when exiting the application seems to 
 be a disadvantage.

I now do.  Spawning a modeless dialog from modal dialogs doesn't work well...
I noticed only after moving the helpviewer into qgscontexthelp. So I reverted
that ;)

But I made the helpviewer read the help texts from stdin and qgscontexthelp to
write it to the helpviewer.

There is now a cmake recipes that creates a cpp file each for function and
context help from the -en_US version in resources and that is integrated
automatically into the ts file using the normal process.

I also added the non-en_US versions of the help files into the respective ts
files.  They are still there, although they aren't used anymore.

So now if there are updates to the help, only the en-US versions should be
added or updated - and the translations are in the ts files.


 As well as the recent hack to the paths get it to run properly from the build
 directory because it resides in lib/.  You said you have started. Is that
 code already pushed to master?

Yes, 4b766003 (and cdd7e9f1).

Re: [Qgis-developer] Raster drawing style always set to single band gray

alexander.b...@gmail.com wrote:
 Hi all,

 seems something broken in raster subsystem. Method drawingStyle() of
 QgsRasterLayer class always returns 1 despite which rendering style
 is set via properties or qml file.

 Steps to reproduce:
  1. load singleband gray raster
  2. open layer properties and in Style tab set Render type to
 Singleband pseudocolor
  3. add several classes and assign colors for them, apply changes
  4. close layer properties
  5. open Python console and run next code (raster layer should be
 active):

 l = iface.mapCanvas().currentLayer()
 l.drawingStyle()

 This always returns value 1, but for Singleband pseudocolor it
 must be 2.

Drawing style was left in raster layer from 1.8 where rendering was
done by raster layer and each DrawingStyle had rendering method in
raster layer. In master, rendering is done by renderers set by
setRenderer() and you can set even your custom renderer. There is no 1
to 1 mapping between renderer and drawing style.

My suggestion is to remove mDrawingStyle, drawingStyle() and
setDrawingStyle() completely and keep only
setRendererForDrawingStyle() for simple renderer setting. OK Marco?

How / why do you need to use drawing style getter? Can you use the
renderer directly?

Radim

 Should I file ticket?

Re: [Qgis-developer] composer export fails for maps with label shadows

 Hi, This morning I tried to export in pdf some multimaps composers. 
 I encounter an error - not crashing qgis, but leaving composer blank - on
 maps using new dropshadows for labels. %Maybe it's related to blending or
 only shadows. I switched back to buffer, and it works OK, even A0. 
 Anyone confirms?

I've been producing pdf output maps from Composer using labels with drop 
shadows during the past week. Can you share the specific blend settings or, 
better, create a simple example qgs file you can share?

Thanks,

Well, even though I agree with the new changes, it will be a harsh
situation for those who have used the deprecated ones in their projects.
And, kind of rude (from the users standpoint) to force the change and
require a manual rebuild of existing projects.

There are still some issues regarding the new symbol setup:

1) IMO, the deprecation of many symbols is fine, if they are moved to a
'deprecated' folder. Such a folder may or may not be part of the SVG search
paths, but still in source and installed. Then, just like when you move or
restructure a web site, create some path rewrite rules that will
auto-update a 2.0 project and rewrite the deprecated SVG paths to the
deprecated SVGs folder.

This could remove the deprecated SVGs from the selector interface, but not
break existing projects. When user goes to work with the symbol, the
correct path is visible, but they can only select new-style SVGs for which
to update the symbol, unless they specifically browse to the deprecated
folder and link to a deprecated one again.

I think such an approach will keep good karma with the user community.

2) Many of the new symbols are white as default. This is probably so they
work well on top of a colored background when layered. However, this makes
them very difficult to preview (especially on Mac). Either the widget view
needs to have a medium gray background, or the default color for those SVGs
should be gray (or maybe black, but gray would work better). This assumes
that all those SVGs have color parameters that can just be changed later.

3) The new SVG backgrounds for labels do not yet support such 'layered'
symbols. Currently only a single SVG can be used. There needs to be a
decent selection of background SVGs for labels (e.g. road shields) that do
not require layering. Layering backgrounds may not be a good fit for
labeling in the future either, since single SVGs with drop shadows already
slow labeling down.

Regards,

Larry
