[Bug 168164] Re: font sizes specified in pixels instead of points
I love having pt as units because my work is mostly for print, and it was a real pain to calculate the type size from pixels for every text object, every time. However I found that when I add a viewBox to documents stored with current trunk with pt as units, the size of SVG text is wrong when viewed in a browser (I tried with Iceweasel, Chromium, Gnome Web and Midori), just as ~suv pointed out. Eye of Gnome, the image viewer, is also affected by this combination of viewBox and pt units for type. I've started to use viewBox because inkscape SVGs are always imported with the wrong size in other programs like Scribus (and Corel, and Illustrator), which assume a resolution of 72 dpi instead of 90. Setting a viewBox for having a real world units reference seems as important as having type in real world units to me, so this solution is incompatible. I wonder why the units have to be hardcoded in the document. Why not just calculating the values on the fly in the UI and keep working with pixels, but with a properly viewBox set in the document? Other programs seem to react correctly and assign the right size when the viewBox element is set and units in SVGs are pixels. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/168164 Title: font sizes specified in pixels instead of points To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/168164/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 168164] Re: font sizes specified in pixels instead of points
As was stated above by Tom Davidson, there's a couple of ways to convert between inkscape pixels and points. And both are tedious :-p You can manually change the size of every type object using the XML editor, or use a factor of 1.25 to convert the desired point size into pixels. Inkscape uses a resolution of 90dpi for the real-size representation. So, if you create a 90x90px square it will be 1x1 inches in real units. A typographic point is 1/72 of an inch, which is equal to a resolution of 72 dpi. 90/72=1.25. So 1.25 is the factor you can use to translate between inkscape pixels and real-world typographic points. I guess it would be pretty trivial (and probably a horrible hack) to add a unit selector in the text dialog to choose between points and pixels using just that factor. Internally it would simply multiply or divide the desired size by 1.25. It doesn't sound like an elegant solution to solve the problem, even for my non-programmer brain. But at least it would be a temporary fix for an old bug that people who work in print production have been asking for years. IMHO, after four years since the original report and millions of multiplications and divisions by 1.25, even the cheapest solution looks good :-) -- font sizes specified in pixels instead of points https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/168164 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

When I suggested to keep related reports in one single bug report I meant about inkscape having problems with small screens. There were a couple of bugs related to the screen size and was pointless (in my oppinion) to have them separated, since the origin was the same: inkscape UI didn't fit in small screens.

I guess we should close it too. Inkscape crashes in a very particular situation and if this report had not much followups, maybe it's not that frequent. Since Ubuntu guys don't think it's worth to fix cairo for Hardy and the bug is caused by Cairo, maybe the offending feature should be disabled (to prevent the crash) when the cairo version is older than the needed.

[Bug 328065] Re: More intuitive Bezier Tool
Hi. I'd mark this request as invalid. Most of the points you mention have a workaround - You can pan the image pressing the middle button (weel) of the mouse and dragging. That's extremely convenient and fast (since you can draw and pan with a hand, without needing any keyboard shortcut). GIMP and other free design packages use the same combination. If you still prefer the space+click combination, it can be activated in the preferences. - You can convert a node to corner using CTRL+L, you can undo the last bezier segment using backspace. It's not as convenient as being able to edit the whole path on the fly (GIMP has that) but it's easy to get used to it. - The development version has a no-color swatch among the swatches in the bottom palette, so you can click (or shift-click) on it to remove fill or stroke repectively. If you can't see the swatch palette in the lower part of the screen, use the viewshow/hide menu to activate it. I'm a former user of Adobe Illustrator too. I know that is a little bit difficult to get used to the differences in Inkscape, but after a couple of days of using it it's not a big deal. If you still find it too hard, you can use an alternative keyboard shortcuts map (there is one that clones the Illustrator's shortcuts). That may help too.

I guess that some minor changes would improve the usability of that window: - Progress bar should appear in the same window, no popups. - The progress bar area should change to export succeded when the export finished, until the user clicks on another object in the canvas that wasn't exported yet. A status bar (as GIMP's one) in the bottom would be great: When it's ready to export, a little instruction like select the image to convert and click export; that status bar changes to a progress bar while the image is being exported; the status bar shows success message when the process is finished, until the user selects another object.

[Bug 269656] Re: AN IRRELEVANT LICENSE IS PRESENTED TO YOU FREE-OF-CHARGE ON STARTUP
I think that Ubuntu already respects their trademark, but If what they want is more a notice than technically an EULA (afaik you can still use the browser even if you don't accept it), why not adding those terms in the page displayed as default? Mozilla trademark and legal people could help to design that first run webpage and add the neccesary license terms according their needs. But I strongly agree that an EULA popup window would be the worst choice. It would harm the free software user experience, taking us users to the inconvenient situation of accepting licenses in order to use FREE software on a free operating system (something that sounds pretty contradictory). It's also important to state that this decision also harms Mozilla's public image.
