Screen tone

2012-07-26 Thread Ralf Mardorf
I received some very nice mails off-list regarding to the thread
ubuntustudio icons. We went off-topic and talked about screen tone
when using a computer and printer, since Moiré patterns are a serious
issue.

Does anybody know FLOSS software that is able to handle this?

Regards,
Ralf

FWIW, regarding to graphics Emmet knows what he's talking about :). I'm
happy that I subscribed to the US lists :).

Let's go the whole hog.

Is there FLOSS software for drawn mouth to speech sync, when producing
an animation?

one thing i wouldn't want to do is make a install image that was 4GB for
 everyone to download. therefore, i am concerned about incurring tonnes
 of new libraries for a particular application. also, i would be cautious
 about trying to include applications for _every_ possible creative use
 for content creation.

 I completely understand your situation (although Krita isn't just yet
 another graphics app).  Would it be possible to implement what Len
 said about not actually including the application in shipped list, but
 having links to recommended programs that the user can view and
 download if he wants to?

It is in the works. It is actually quite trivial. I have done office, dtp,
effects, midi, mixers, and synths so far. I can include things that are
not on the ubuntu repos and if the user adds the PPA that goes with them
they will work after that. For example, I have included non-mixer in the
mixers, but it doesn't show up right now. However if the user adds the
kxstudio ppa, it will.

Please send me a list of applications it might be useful to add this way.
(I already will add kritta) I need the exact name of the package.

Anyone else can send package names too please.

What I should have added... should we add a small gui that adds these
PPAs? Something that explains the the benefits and risks and then has
buttons to add PPAs individually with perhaps a list of apps available
there. As with all installers this would have to be sudo using pkexec or
something similar. (I happen to know that pk comes with ubuntu already) I
would do this with tk/tcl (which we include already) but others might use
the python equiv.
