Welcome!!! -Original Message- From: brynn To: Inkscape-Docs Subject: [Inkscape-docs] welcome new moderator Date: Sun, 19 Aug 2018 22:32:32 -0600 Hi Friends, I just wanted to quickly introduce our new moderator ZAYNE. He seems to be catching on pretty quickly, and visiting relatively often, which is just awesome! He said he's planning to subscribe to the Docs list, so if he should need some guidance and I'm not available that day, he can post here, and other moderators can help. Welcome ZAYNE!

Re: [Inkscape-docs] extension testers needed
Thanks Maren for the feedback. I agree with you is better separated. The problem is the list is big for multiselect if we want all options displayed without scroll. Maybe is more clear the Martin version, the problem in Martin version is we not know we can select multiple items. About the select with click, it can be done with a bit of JS. Maybe there is some extended JS plugins in the net we can use more fancy. There is some in the net I see that make a combobox like martin but each option with a check on one side to active/inactive. This seems to me better UI. https://select2.org/getting-started/basic-usage http://www.jqueryfaqs.com/Articles/Multiple-Select-MultiSelect-DropDownList-with-CheckBoxes-using-jQuery.aspx Regards. -Original Message- From: Maren Hachmann To: inkscape-docs@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Inkscape-docs] extension testers needed Date: Tue, 19 Jun 2018 23:01:42 +0200 I agree about the multiselect (but don't like the design too much, I think it's better to have the items more separate, like it's done in Martin's version). Jabier, as a non-smartphone owner, I wonder how does multiselect work without a keyboard? (we've recently had an m23 user who didn't even think of using Ctrl to select multiple options...). Click-activate, click-deactivate would be useful then, I assume?

Re: [Inkscape-docs] extension testers needed
Great work. Maybe if the dropdown is changed to a multiselect on click become more easy to use, and become a dropdown on unfocus. Just a idea. One question in licensed type why not put in the dropdown a extra info in GPLV2 "(as inkscape)" or something similar to help integrating things into the codebase. Regards, Jabier.

But mostly writing extensions is over my head, so someone else would have to point out which places need more work. At the bottom of the page tells about publishing therm. Is that what you were thinking of? Or did you have something else in mind? It's just that not all people who write extensions will see that, or necessarily want to put them in the gallery. That's why my original message was about finding people to test them. But now, I'm thinking it might be better to just remind the developers to include the Inkscape versions and operating systems which it works with, when they upload them. brynn -Original Message- From: Victor Westmann Sent: Sunday, June 17, 2018 9:13 PM To: brynn Cc: Inkscape-Docs Subject: Re: [Inkscape-docs] extension testers needed Is it possible for us to create a draft of a HOW TO PUBLISH YOUR EXTENSIONS for the Inkscape project form the Gitlab wiki pages?

But on the other hand, it would be SO nice to have this info available for users.) I can understand how it would take some extra time and energy (for the website developers) to make checkboxes or something. But I would be happy if just a sentence or 2 could be displayed.
