Summary: no MacOS X binary available, no MacOS maintainer

Initial Comment:
We have no binary available for MacOS X and no-one to maintain a MacOS X port. 
This is currently a blocker for the next release. There are scripts in the 
source code to build MacOS packages, but we have no-one to build, test, port 
and provide packages. If you would like to take on the task of providing MacOS 
packages, please take the following into consideration.

Bugs in the previous, broken packages are available here, they should be 
avoided in any new packages:

http://sf.net/tracker/?func=browse&group_id=144022&atid=757416&summary_keyword=mac&set=custom&_status=100&_assigned_to=0

GTK+ is being ported to MacOS X native, any packages should probably use that 
instead of MacOS X X11:

http://developer.imendio.com/projects/gtk-macosx

Packages would preferably be provided as a single app-bundle to be placed in 
any directory on the system and Just Work (TM).

Additionally, it would be nice to have fink packages too :)

Excellent.

I've no idea about your gtk question, I can't even find anything on Google
about gtk_cursor_by_name, I'd suggest the source or koders.com:

http://www.koders.com/default.aspx?s=gtk_cursor_by_name&btn=Search&la=*&li=*

synfigstudio uses GTKmm BTW. Also, we don't really have any people who
know GTK+/GTKmm well involved in synfig.

See you on the IRC soon

PS - where can I learn about some of the more exclusive features of GTK+?
For example, the documentation doesn't discuss the gtk_cursor_by_name
function which takes a name like "arrow" instead of GTK_ARROW.

Fisrt, come join us on IRC and on the devel and user mailing lists (send

Second, check out the source from SVN, third, look at the osx script and
update the build instructions page for MacOS X:

2007-05-27 Thread Paul Wise
Hey Atrus,

On the Build_instructions wiki page, can you add the names of the
Fedora packages you used as build-deps for building your synfig
packages? Also, did you make any changes to the .spec file or the
source to build the fc6 packages?

2007-05-27 Thread Paul Wise
Hi all,

I've updated the news page:

http://wiki.synfig.com/News

Please review & edit it and I'll post at the end of the day.

I also fixed the two remaining release blockers and the about dialog
over the weekend, please test the latest SVN if you are on Debian etch
or any other distro with GTKmm 2.8. Atrus/others, please test on Win32
too.

Initial Comment:
http://dooglus.rincevent.net/random/about-synfig.png shows how the 'about' 
window looks to me.

I have GNOME's fonts set to use a dpi of 126, which it probably what's causing 
this.

Also, when using a dark desktop theme with white font colours, the version
and other information doesn't show up because the logo is white too.

The current dialog is sexy, but it has many problems. We could convert it
to a VERY unsexy Gtk::AboutDialog.

The gimp about dialog seems to 1) resize the font to fit into the space
available 2) use the appropriate font colour 3) allow the user to close it
with a click in any part.

The inkscape about dialog looks like a standard gtk about dialog, modified
a bit. Same with scribus.

The openoffice one separates the text from the logo.

The Xara one is just a bit of text.

The splash screen should also be given the
GDK_WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_SPLASHSCREEN window type hint and the text in the
about box should be selectable.

It's hard to see how to close the 'about' window, too.  It turns out
there's a small barely visible 'x' in the top right corner, but something
more visible would be useful.

Also, clicking the 'about' icon multiple times seems to create multiple
copies of the about window, so I have to close it multiple times, too. 
Only allowing a single instance of the about window would be better.

Summary: 2 input devices dialog problems

Initial Comment:
I run synfigstudio on a Linux laptop with a synaptics touchpad.

Each time I run synfigstudio, the touchpad (and the bluetooth mouse) are pretty 
much useless until I go to the input devices dialog and select 'mode: disabled' 
in the top right.

1.  this selection should be saved so I don't have to keep doing it

2.  should this selection even be necessary?  why is the dialog defaulting to a 
value that doesn't work?

Until I select 'disabled', attempting to place a new circle with the circle 
tool, for instance, draws the outline of a circle which appears to be centred 
at the top left corner of the screen (outside the canvas window), passing 
through the point I drag the mouse to.  Releasing the mouse button creates a 
new circle layer, but the new circle isn't drawn on the canvas.  The circle's 
centre is off the canvas, and its radius is 0.

Summary: synfigstudio can't find icons - bad value for IMAGE_DIR

Initial Comment:
I built synfig and synfigstudio from the current svn 
sources using Debian Unstable.

The config.h which was generated by ./configure when 
building synfigstudio has this line:

#define IMAGE_DIR "/pixmaps"

This results in synfigstudio being unable to locate 
any of the graphics (for the splash screen, and the 
icons, for instance) unless I export an environment 
variable:

export SYNFIG_ROOT=/usr/local

Doing that works around the problem.

Note that when I ran 'bootstrap' I saw warnings about 
the versions of autoconf and automake I was using.  I 
just tried running 'bootstrap' again to copy and 
paste the warning here, but they no longer appear.  
Now all I see is:

bootstrap: Using autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.60a
bootstrap: Using automake (GNU automake) 1.7.9

but I'm pretty sure yesterday it was telling me 
something like "the version of autoconf is wrong; got 
2.60a, expected 2.59(something) - bootstrap may 
fail".  bootstrap didn't appear to fail, so I ignored 
the warning and carried on.  I mention it now because 
maybe it's these 'wrong versions of auto*' which 
caused IMAGE_DIR to be set incorrectly.

About the IMAGE_DIR thing, that was caused in SVN r180 as part of an
attempt at better relocatability. Fixing this attempt using the same scheme
as I wrote for nsis is on my TODO list and is a blocker for the next
release IMO.

BOOTSTRAP MUST DIE!!! jebus I hate that thing (also a blocker, but for
practical reasons - make dist is broken, probably because of bootstrap). I
hope to replace it with autoreconf at some point.
