[svg-developers] Re: Converting maps into SVG

2009-01-12 Thread Andreas Neumann
I don't know with what maps you have to deal - but if the map is 
actively maintained than chances are high that the underlying vector 
data is available. If you can contact the map author, I would do so.

[svg-developers] Re: displaying svg on IE after 12-31-08

2009-01-02 Thread Andreas Neumann
they simply do not have an interest in SVG at all - other than 
perhaps selling more authoring tools for SVG developers.

The situation before or after 2008-12-31 is more or less the same. 
Before and after there was no support and further development. 
Development more or less stopped back in 2001. Before they maybe 
would have reacted to security related problems in ASV, after they do 
not care at all.

People simply should forget about Adobe in terms of SVG support. With 
the buy of Macromedia, management within Adobe changed a lot and they 
see their future in binary only, proprietary formats. They don't 
believe in the open nature of the web.

[svg-developers] SVG Open 2009 in the USA

2008-12-23 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi all,

I just wanted to let you know about the upcoming SVG Open. The plan 
is to have the SVG Open 2009 in the US. Unfortunately we haven't yet 
made a final decision, but we have three candidate locations (2 on 
the east coast and one on the east coast). The date will be in the 
autumn of 2009, not yet decided since we do not have a definite 
location.

Please apologize for the delay in organizing SVG Open 2009. We do our 
best to have a definite location, a call for papers and first 
information in January.

Thanks and happy holidays!

Andreas

[svg-developers] Re: Safari 3.2.1 with ASV 3.0 won't View Source

2008-12-18 Thread Andreas Neumann
yes, it is also my impression that some things are better and some 
are worse. But Webkit is under active development while ASV is dead. 
Also, all in all, performance in Webkit and browser integration is 
good.

I agree that there are still some bugs.

I encourage you to report the bugs at https://bugs.webkit.org/

Webkit is also important since it is also used in Google Chrome, 
iPhone, Konqueror, Adobe Air (I think they deactivated SVG on 
purpose) and other browsers/devices.

Thanks,
Andreas

  You can report bugs if it doesn't. You can easily install Webkit

[svg-developers] Testing SMIL in Minefield

2008-12-11 Thread Andreas Neumann
According to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216462 
there should be SMIL enabled Firefox/Minefield builds around.

However, I can't get SMIL to work.

I wonder if anyone on this list could explain which builds contain 
SMIL support and how I activate it - I assume in about:config somehow?

Thanks a lot,

 You really need to build it yourself at the moment. I don't think it
 needs activating beyond that.

hm - I don't know if I'll go that route ... do you know when regular 
builds with SMIL support will be available?

maybe I'll build it myself some time, but currently I am too busy to 
do that. I guess it takes quite some time to build Firefox myself.

From the discussion I thought that somehow SMIL was already compiled 
in but needs to be manually activated in about:config

Thanks anyway,

[svg-developers] Use of SVG for map production in map.search.ch

2008-11-20 Thread Andreas Neumann
Some information for GIS/carto people:

map.search.ch is the biggest mapping website in Switzerland, with 
more users than Google-maps Switzerland. Approx. 3-4 million out of 7 
million people in Switzerland are using map.search.ch. One of its 
nice features is its integration of public transport information and 
up-to-date point of interest information.

Yesterday at a GIS meeting I learned that it uses SVG and CSS for map-
production, for symbolizing the GIS data and for label-placement.

SVG is not sent to the browsers due to a lack of SVG support in IE, 
but it is used as an intermediate format before being converted to 
raster tiles. I think it is interesting to know that SVG is often 
used behind-the-scenes at places one wouldn't expect.

Another interesting fact is that like many other internet-companies, 
the company behind map.search.ch prefers open source software and 
self-developed software over commercial GIS offerings, simply because 
of scalability, licencing and being-in-control of everything issues.

Andreas

[svg-developers] Re: How to convert TTF Fonts to SVG

2008-11-17 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi,

there is a very powerful (but not very pretty) open source font 
editor available at http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/

Among many other formats it also supports SVG fonts and even 
generates the kerning tables.

It works fine on Mac and Linux but is a bit complicated to install on 
Windows, since it requires X11.

Hope this helps,

[svg-developers] Re: A full SVG 1.1 spec editor

2008-11-17 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi,

there is no SVG editor available that supports all features of SVG 
1.1 full.

Usually you have to work in combinations of a static graphical editor 
(e.g. inkscape, Corel or Illustrator) and animation editor (e.g. the 
Inkscape animator), a text or XML editor and font-tools, such as 
fontforge.

Hope this helps,
Andreas

 I tried some converters (rsvg, apache batik, but seems doesn't

 For other types of combinations, you'll have to write the combined

not sure I fully understand your requirement. Are you looking for a

 Any clever ideas on how to reveal the shape of a Bezier curve

[svg-developers] Re: Multi-line editable text area

2008-10-08 Thread Andreas Neumann
well - it is a little bit more than zero ;-)

Opera 9.5x implements editable text and also textareas.

To do the whole thing for other browser with javascript is quite complicated. I 
did a 
textbox widgets (only one line) - and this was already very complicated.

However, you may consider (at least at the current time) to use HTML for that 
purpose. 
Most browsers implement the foreign objects and this allows you to use HTML 
inside SVG.

It appears that the last line in FakeSmile

the nesting works great for my application. Thanks for the hint.

[svg-developers] Re: Hey you all. Just

2008-10-06 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Tim,

there is no single best authoring environment for SVG.

I currently use gedit with sveral plugins, OxygenXML, Opera dragonfly 
and the Mozilla developer tools. Just today, Webkit also announced 
enhanced web developer tools in Webkit (http://webkit.org/blog/). 
Apache Batik also has a debugger.

Eclipse may offer some good web-developer tools, probably not 
specifically designed for SVG, but useful nevertheless. OxygenXML 
also offers an Eclipse plugin.

All of those tools are general web-developer tools, often not 
specifically designed for SVG - nevertheless, most of them work with 
SVG.

Batik is useful for testing SVG only content, since it is very 
standards compliant and offers DOM viewer/JS debugger. Opera is a 
very good browser for developing SVG only and mixed HTML/SVG 
applications.

Hope this helps,
Andreas

This is great. This makes my current SMIL based project work just

 Practically, you won't have access to the event (evt or event)

 All it does is call eval() with the attribute value, when the event

Thank you for the hint. http://www.codedread.com/svgtest.svg is a
useful page. Switches seem to work with feature strings in ASV/IE, but
it seems that it is not supported to query feature strings using the
DOM. It neither works with the 1.0 features strings, nor with the 1.1
features strings.

I tested with the following code:

---
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
svg xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg; width=100% height=100%
onload=smilTest()
script type=text/ecmascript
![CDATA[
function smilTest() {
var smil =
document.implementation.hasFeature(org.w3c.svg.animation,1.0);
alert(SMIL=+smil);
}
]]
/script
/svg
---

document.implementation.hasFeature(http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/feature#SVG-animation,1.1;);
doesn't work either.

Andreas 

  document.implementation.hasFeature(org.w3c.svg.animation,1.0)
  
  and ASV returns false. Is this the correct way to test feature 
  strings in SVG 1.0? Opera returns true for both tests (1.0 and 1.1)
  
 
 You can see what feature strings are supported by displaying this page
 in the browser of your choice: http://www.codedread.com/svgtest.svg

[svg-developers] Re: TTF-Font

2008-10-06 Thread Andreas Neumann
yes, SVG fonts would be useful for the more exotic fonts. Fontforge is
a free unix/macosx tool to convert various font-formats, including SVG
fonts.

Opera, Batik and Webkit support external SVG fonts defined in an
external file. The Adobe SVG viewer 3 only supports internal SVG
fonts, Firefox doesn't support SVG fonts at all, currently.

 You should put the animateTransform element behind the tspan. I don't 
 know about the current version, but some versions of Firefox didn't 
 display text, when something else than tspan, or a elements was 
 in the text element before the text. It is allowed, though, and 
 does work in other user agents.
 
 The font-family property identifes a font by its display name, which 
 is not necessarily identical to the filename of the font. You have to 
 look at by what name the font is presented in the selection box when 
 you edit a document in a word processor, or any application that 
 allows you to select fonts. Destroy sound like it could be the full 
 display name, but maybe it's not.
 
 Still, this would only work when the font is installed on your 
 system. If you use the document locally, or for offline rendering, 
 that's fine, but it wouldn't work for people who view the document 
 online, unless they also installed the font. To make SVG viewers use 
 the font when it's not installed, you could use CSS webfonts to 
 specify the location of the font file, but I think currently that's 
 only implemented in webkit.
 
 A solution which also works in Opera and the Adobe SVG Viewer (but 
 not in firefox), is to use an embedded SVG font. The Apache Batik 
 toolkit comes with a font converter which can make SVG fonts from 
 True Type Fonts. I have recently written a little how-to on SVG fonts:

[svg-developers] Re: TTF-Font

2008-10-06 Thread Andreas Neumann
there is no solution to the problem in Firefox.

You can specify a standard fallback font after the prefered SVG font
that should be present on most machines (one of the fonts that come
with Microsoft windows).

If Firefox implements web fonts they should most likely also work in
SVG. I also hope that they implement SVG fonts in Firefox 3.2 or
whatever comes after 3.1.

[svg-developers] Re: IE woes: reload does not work

2008-10-06 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Bruce,

I just installed Fiddler. It is a nice tool. I did not know it. Thank
you for the hint!

I was able to solve the issue partially. It has to do with caching. It
seems that IE6/ASV and caching does not work fine - at least not on my
Windows2000 system. I configured Apache2 to send a header that
prevents the SVG file from caching. After setting this, I can reload
the application multiple times fine without problems.

I added these two lines to my Apache configuration (directory context):

Header set Cache-control no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate
Header set Pragma no-cache

Now I have to find out how to trick Apache to only do this when good
old IE6 comes along and not for all the other browsers ...

Thanks,
Andreas

[svg-developers] IE woes: reload does not work

2008-10-03 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi IE specialists (if there are any on this list),

This refers to IE and the Adobe SVG viewer version 3. I tested on IE 
6 (Win2K).

I have a couple of SVG projects which involve scripting. They work 
fine when I first load the file. On the second (or any subsequent) 
page loads the scripts don't work any more. Since most of the 
projects are rather complex it is hard to find the cause.

I wonder if anyone of you had similar problems and if you were able 
to solve them?

Here is one of the examples that only works on the first page load:
http://www.carto.net/williams/yosemite/

The issues only appears in IE and in no other browser.

Thanks,
Andreas

[svg-developers] Detect SMIL presence with Javascript

Hi,

I wonder how I can detect with Javascript whether a browser

I know that fakesmil can detect it but I couldn't figure out how it 
does it.

I want to write some scripts which only apply if a browser cannot do 
SMIL natively.

[svg-developers] Re: Detect SMIL presence with Javascript

2008-10-03 Thread Andreas Neumann

 really ?
 I'm surprised.
 Maybe with the SVG 1.0 feature string : org.w3c.svg.animation
 See http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/feature.html for more info.

hm - I tried

document.implementation.hasFeature(org.w3c.svg.animation,1.0)

and ASV returns false. Is this the correct way to test feature 
strings in SVG 1.0? Opera returns true for both tests (1.0 and 1.1)

 and I forgot to tell you, FakeSMILe doesn't support hasFeature 
either.

yes - I am aware.

while we are at FakeSMIL:

Are there any plans for further developments?

Specifically I would need additive=sum support and support of the 
onend event handler attribute. I would need to have notification that 
an animation finished so I can react with some script.

Thanks a lot for your efforts you put into fakesmil - it is a very 
cool piece of script - and it also works in HTML!

Hello,

I am wondering if Firefox 3.1 and Opera 9.6 will support web fonts? 
Means externally linked ttf files that can be used in CSS and SVG?

see http://www.alistapart.com/articles/cssatten

It seems that currently Webkit is the only browser supporting those 
web fonts.

I wonder if this would be a technology to overcome the limitation of 
missing SVG font support in Mozilla, if it would be supported in 
Firefox 3.1.

[svg-developers] Re: Proposal: A standard SVG test suite

2008-09-17 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi John,

Are you aware of the testsuites that W3C provides? You can find them 
at http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/Overview.html for SVG 1.2 Tiny 
and SVG 1.1 Full. While they do not test every single aspect of the 
testsuite (this would require thousands of tests), they do test many 
important parts of the testsuite. If all browsers would score 100%, 
interoperability would be quite good. Jeff Schiller also provides an 
overview on how much the web browsers and SVG UAs implement: http://
www.codedread.com/svg-support.php

If UAs have a lot of reds, it is usually because they don't implement 
some parts of the spec at all, e.g. SMIL or SVG filters.

I believe that the W3C SVG testsuite is the best testsuite to improve 
on, if you want to contribute. The W3C SVG working group invites 
individuals or companies to contribute to the test suite. The SVG IG 
(interest group http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/IG/wiki/Main_Page) is 
a good place/group for getting something like this started.

The questions is more how to increase pressure on browser 
manufactorers to test against the testsuite and make it a regular 
part of their QA. You are probably also aware about the ACID3 test, 
which all browser manufactorers are testing against. Thanks to Erik, 
Cameron and Doug we have 3 SVG tests in there as well. I think it is 
a good idea to increase the SVG share in upcoming ACID tests along 
with the further development of the SVG testsuite.

I agree that interoperability should improve and browser 
manufactorers need to take SVG more seriously (with higher priority) 
in the future.

Andreas

 Being somewhat new to SVG technology, I have been doing some 
research into
 the range of SVG compatibility in various browsers and other

 committing to a major project development that is based on SVG.  
Quite
 clearly, each browser does some things well and others very poorly 
with no
 single browser supporting all aspects of SVG, although Opera scores 
very
 highly.  This led me to think about what could be done to get all 
browsers
 on the same page with respect to SVG.
 
  
 
 In this regard I believe that what is needed is an industry 
standard SVG
 test suite that all browser manufacturers could easily utilise to 
improve
 SVG support in their products.  Not something trivial, but real-
world
 examples that highlight every aspect of the SVG specification.  To 
accompany
 these tests would be a standard document that detailed the current 
status of
 SVG support in each version of each browser or product highlighting 
which
 tests are passed and which are not.  I don't know who would own 
this test
 suite and compliance status document but it would need to be well 
managed,
 easily accessible and automated.
 
  
 
 Perhaps W3C already provide some certification tests?  I don't 
know, but
 clearly more work needs to be done in this area to bring all 
browsers into
 line.
 
  
 
 I know Batik has a test suite and I am sure other browser 
manufacturers each
 have their own so finding suitable material shouldn't be a 
problem.  The key
 is to have everyone using the *same* test suite.
 
  
 
 I believe that SVG developers need to do more to encourage, assist 
or
 pressure browser manufacturers to improve their level of SVG 
support and
 this could be the first step.
 
  
 
 Any thoughts?

I agree that this question should be best asked at the Batik 
mailinglist.

If it takes 20 secs to update 100 text elements then there is 
something seriously wrong in your application. Either you are running 
at the memory limit (per default Java apps only get 64MB of memory) 
or there is something else in your code that is slowing down the 
application.

In my experience updating 100 text elements usually happens in 1 
second if you do it correctly.

If you update the same text elements again and again I would also 
consider to cache references to those elements and not use 
getElementById().getFirstChild() again and again.

But please post your example on the Batik mailinglist. I am sure they 
are able to help.

Andreas

 Hello,
 
 I am working on a Batik based java application and I've got to deal 
with
 a matter of performance.
 
 My problem is that I need to update the text content of some node 
of my
 svg document.
 
 In order to do this, i got a bunch of SVGOMTextElement with ids and 
I
 just use a loop in my java code to change the content of the 
element.
 
 Java Code :
 // I take the text node in a list
 SVGOMTextElement elt2 = ((SVGOMTextElement) elt);
 //I'll update the first child
 SVGOMTSpanElement span = (SVGOMTSpanElement)elt2.getFirstChild();
 //Setting the new value
 elt2.setTextContent(test);
 
 Sample from SVG file
 g id=TM20 transform=translate(381.35498051840341
 ,438.75609706960131) rotate(0)
 path fill=rgb(160,0,0) stroke-width=0.2 d=M-5.5,-3 L5.5,-3 
L5.5,3
 z stroke=rgb(160,0,0)/
 text style=text-anchor: middle; font-size: 3.3 id=TMTEXT20
 transform=translate(0,11) scale(1,-1)
 tspan5.2/tspan
 tspan dx=2O/tspan
 /text
 
 This loop is about 100 itérations and take around 20 seconds to
 complete. Then modification are displayed on my Canvas.
 
 My question is quite simple : Is there a thing i did wrong and a 
way to
 get the same result faster ?
 
 Thank you in advance for your help

[svg-developers] Question on HTML/SVG interop regarding javascript

2008-09-11 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi all,

I have a javascript related problem/question:

Given the following situation:

* HTML file with Javascript and embedded SVG file, some global 
variable declarations
* Embedded SVG with Javascript, some global variable declarations, 
lets say I have a var definition in the SVG context like var color= 
'blue';

The question is:
From javascript running in the HTML context - can I access and change 
javascript variables and objects running in the SVG context - and how 
would I do that? In the given example, how can I query and change 
from the HTML context the value of the string variable color which 
is defined in the SVG context? 

Thanks for any ideas/hints,
Andreas

[svg-developers] Re: Question on HTML/SVG interop regarding javascript

2008-09-11 Thread Andreas Neumann
Thank you David,

actually the problem was now very simple to solve. It only required 
the aliasing of the variable or object to the top object.

so doing:

top.myObject = myObect;

on the SVG part made the object available in the HTML world.

Thanks for the hint!

 Hi Andreas,
 
 Take a look at http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/svg/
backandforth20.htm
 The button with ? explains a little bit about how to use the thing 
(it's a collaborative linking sticky-note thing that inserts floating 
HTML text areas above svg nodes in a user-connected graph. I think 
the graph may have some lexical proximities built in too). It's not 
the simplest example of what you want, but I couldn't find anything 
easier at hand. It works in IE/ASV, Opera and FF though I haven't 
tried it anywhere else.
 
 The array Nodes is defined in SVG. It is an array of objects, each 
of which is created via new Node and
 function Node(x,y,id,label,col){
  this.x=x
  this.y=y
  this.id=id
  this.label=label
  this.col=col
  this.links=new Array()
  this.info=label
 }
 
 events in the SVG define the x and y coordinates as well as the 
labels and colors of nodes.
 
 events in the HTML define the info (or story) associated with each 
node.
 
 Come to think of it, http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/IG/resources/
StateOfArt-Dailey.html contains an example that may be simpler in the 
chapter on scripting between SVG and HTML, but since that reference 
hasn't been fixed yet you'll have to wade through some funky 
characters and some even funkier formatting.

[svg-developers] Re: Right-click menus in SVG

2008-09-10 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi JCT,

You can use evt.preventDefault(); at the end of the function that is 
triggered by the event to suppress the default context menu of the 
browser.

You'd have to write the right-click context-menu yourself then. Maybe 
someone could write a wrapper around the various implementations of 
context menues. I am sure every browser does it differently.

Alternatively, you could write the context menue in SVG and 
javascript. Maybe something like http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/gui/
selectionlist/ could server as a starter.

Hope this helps,
Andreas

[svg-developers] Re: Negative Coordinates?

2008-09-09 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi John,

I agree that Opera 9.5 is currently the best browser based SVG 
implementation. But Webkit/Safari and Firefox are catching up quickly.

Firefox has fallen a bit behind, but FF3 is a huge improvement over 
FF2. The main lacking features are SVG fonts support and SMIL 
animation.

Negative numbers are supported in all SVG viewers/webbrowsers, 
however, as others pointed out. I use negative numbers all the time 
in my mapping applications. Others have pointed out that you should 
avoid the trailing blanks and your examples should work fine in all 
of the 4 browsers: Opera, Firefox, Webkit/Safari, Google Chrome.

 In the Perl script I have an option to open the file in Opera once

 Opera are preserved.  This means I can work on a part of the

 every time I edit the file.

[svg-developers] SVG Open 2009 in California?

2008-09-09 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi SVG developers,

After a successful SVG Open 2008 conference in Nuremberg, Germany, we 
are looking into organizing SVG Open 2009.

Several people have suggested to hold it in California, USA. We are 
currently investigating the options. Nothing decided yet.

We are also looking for people who could help with the local 
organization of the conference. If you are a SVG developer or user 
located in California and would be able to help with the conference 
organization, please contact me personally. We have a separate 
mailinglist for the conference organization and you could join us 
there.

Thanks a lot,
Andreas

[svg-developers] Google Chrome - SVG support?

2008-09-02 Thread Andreas Neumann
Anyone know anything about the SVG support in Google Chrome?

Given that its using Webkit as rendering engine, chances are high 
that it supports SVG out of the box.

I only hope they did not fork the project but continue to use Webkit. 
This would avoid having to test yet another browser against SVG 
support.

All in all its good to have another webbrowser with SVG support - 
this really should put more pressure on Microsoft.

Its a bit scary though - imagine what data they could collect on the 
users, if the bundle web-apps, with the web-browser, with web-search, 
etc. - I feel a little better though, because it is based on open-
source.

[svg-developers] Re: Google Chrome - SVG support?

2008-09-02 Thread Andreas Neumann
 I am using it now.  It does support SVG but seems to be an earlier 
 version of WebKit.  There is no animation support.  It appears some 
of 
 the new JavaScript engine needs work - my map controls don't always 
 work.  Overall it is pretty solid but is is definitely a beta.

yes - just checked it against my own examples. Works for the most 
parts, but some controls don't work, e.g. the linked reference map. 
It also crashed on the geophoto example.

Hopefully they are regularly incorporating the Webkit improvements 
into their browser and hopefully they begin to contribute towards 
improving SVG as well.

[svg-developers] Re: A question on IE browser

2008-08-29 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Fulio,

It would be certainly good to advise your visitors/customers to use 
an SVG enabled browser. At the current time, Opera is the best SVG 
enabled browser, but Webkit/Safari and Mozilla are catching up.

At SVG Open conference, just recently held in Nuremberg, the lack of 
SVG support inside IE was extensively discussed and many people 
realize that an improved SVG plugin for IE is needed soon, if we want 
SVG to play an important role in upcoming web infrastructures.

I can say there is hope that such a plugin will be provided in the 
next couple months. As you may know, Examotion is working on an IE 
plugin. On the other hand there is also the chance that one of the 
existing browser projects/vendors (either Webkit, Opera or Mozilla) 
will step up and leverage their existing SVG technology to provide an 
IE plugin. This is all in early stages - discussion just started. But 
some of the browser developers present at SVG Open stated that this 
is technically realistic.

This could be regarded as a SVG/IE solution for the medium time frame 
until IE gets native SVG support. But realistically SVG support could 
be in IE 9 earliest - and this is some time away. Until then we have 
to bridge the gap. And we don't have to forget that there are still a 
lot of old IE versions around. The place where I work, still has lots 
of IE6 installations ...

yes - I agree we can't know if they implement SVG natively or not.

But it is increasingly obvious that the other three browsers build up 
pressure on Microsoft regarding SVG. At the SVG Open last week all 
three browser projects (Opera, Webkit and Mozilla) had some presence 
and confirmed that they are committed to complete SVG 1.1 and at 
least selected SVG 1.2 features that are useful in the HTML5 context.

This is something that Microsoft increasingly cannot simply ignore.

Browsers typically don't implement getURL because they already have

[svg-developers] Re: Coverting ESRI attibute tables to SVG

2008-07-22 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi,

 thanks for your help. i am not able to get the carto.net shp2svg to
 run as it kept telling me that the ogis2svg.pl file does not exist
 even after i downloaded and installed it severally.

can you be a little more specific? On which operating system? My 
guess is that you placed the files somewhere in a directory not 
defined in the PATH variable. Also, note that the .pl (perl) version 
needs a perl environment installed. If you are on windows, you can 
use the .exe file instead of the .pl file. You'll also need the 
shp2pgsql file for your platform, which also needs to be present in 
the same directory or in a directory specified in the PATH variable.

But for all of 1-4 you'll find examples in the SVG 1.2 Tiny

For 3 you will find tons of examples on the web.

[svg-developers] Re: How to test if two objects overlap?

2008-02-21 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hello,

as far as I know, this is currently not possible without parsing the 
geometry and doing the intersection by script.

The only thing SVG and the DOM currently offers is testing of the 
intersection or enclosing of a rectangle and SVG elements (shapes), 
using the DOM methods:

getIntersectionList ( in SVGRect rect, in SVGElement 
referenceElement );
getEnclosureList ( in SVGRect rect, in SVGElement referenceElement );
checkIntersection ( in SVGElement element, in SVGRect rect );
checkEnclosure ( in SVGElement element, in SVGRect rect );

The check of an arbitrary shape agains other arbitrary shapes would 
be useful though, something to consider for SVG 1.2 Full.

[svg-developers] Re: my final year project in SVG ,AJAX,RIA

2008-02-19 Thread Andreas Neumann
hm - thats quite an ambitious goal to mimic CorelDraw, Inkscape and 
Illustrator in SVG. These are big drawing apps that where big 
corporations (or projects in case of Inkscape) spent multiple men-
year of development.

Don't expect any miracles from SVG, it would be a lot of work to 
mimic those big three apps. Simpler drawing apps in SVG are doable, 
as others demonstrated, but it still is a lot of work and requires a 
lot of experience in coding, to get a maintainable code-base.

Regarding your question: both text and XML based data-types would 
work fine. If you want to do XML processing within the database, the 
XML database would be best. If you just want storage and retrieval, 
the text-format would also work. Or you could just use plain files.

 2:the concept of sprite is useful in that.that what we discussed.
 3)to eloborate what we did in our module,i said the we assigned

 we hav done with it.
 4)we are able to clone the nodes.can drag the current node.
 5)another approach for resizing element:
 is to pass the size specifications by clicking over the shape and
 asking the user to enter the hight, length tht he wants.but tht
 becomes discrete.
 6)the user who will use the web based tool, will hav there private
 gallery.so whatever they will be doing will be stored in gallery.
 SO STORING THE SVG DOC AS XML IN DATABASE IS PROPER?
 OR I SHOULD STORE IT IN GRAPHIC OR VARGRHIC FORMAT OR CLOBS ???

[svg-developers] Re: tip for parseXML and FireFox3 and IE+ASV3

2008-02-17 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hello,

Yes, FF3 supports patterns now, so does Opera9 and Safari. I really 
recommend not only testing with FF3, but also with Opera and Safari.

Yes, Opera supports HTML-SVG communication. It should work the same 
as with FF and Safari.

parseXML:

there is a function called serializeNode() at http://www.carto.net/
papers/svg/resources/helper_functions.js

This function works across all browsers an UAs, incl. ASV, Batik, 
Opera, Firefox and Safari. The argument is just a DOM-node, the 
result is a string containing the text representation of the DOM-node.

Andreas

 Hi all,
 
 Since i discover that FF3 supports patterns with bitmaps, i'm 
working
 to make my site compliant with FF3.
 The bigger problem (until this time) comes from parseXML.
 This is my context :
 My framework is composed of a frame divided in three parts. First
 frame is a html menu with links, second and third frames are html 
with
 embed svg. 
 I have to include a pattern extracted from the second frame's svg to
 third frame's svg. 
 With IE+ASV3, parseXML(printNode(mynode),SVGDocument) makes the job,
 not in FF3.
 
 First, I found a script PrintAndParse.js supplied by Kevin Lindsey
 and Doug Schepers (thinks for all the work they give to us(and the
 core team of svg-developers group)), trying to make it work in my
 context, but i fail. I had mainly an operation is not supported
 message error with importNode. Perhaps i missed something 
somewhere ...
 
 Searching deeper in google, i found a simple xml syntax and now i 
can
 replace :
 
 this IE+ASV javascript in svg syntax 
 bn=parseXML(printNode(mynode),SVGDocument); 
 bag_node.appendChild(bn); 
 
 by this FFX3 javascript in svg syntax:
 
 bag_node.appendChild(SVGDocument.importNode(mynode,true));
 
 To keep IE+ASV3 and FF3 compatibility, i group these syntax in a
 function :
 
 function AddANode(docdest,mynode,dest)
 {
 if(window.parseXML){
 bn=parseXML(printNode(mynode),docdest); 
 dest.appendChild(bn); 
 } else
 {
 dest.appendChild(docdest.importNode(mynode,true));
 }
 }
 call by :
 ...
 bag_node=SVGDocument.getElementById(patternbag);
 AddANode(SVGDocument,a_node,bag_node);
 ...
 
 and now, two svg can exchange patterns with javascript through 
framed
 html, in IE+ASV3 and FF3b3!
 
 Hope this will help you.
 
 Philippe
 http://www.visualkit.com ... not yet FF3 compliant.
  
 PS : Opera deals with patterns and bitmap since years, but I can't
 find a working example of svg-html-svg communication for Opera. Is
 someone know if this is (will) implemented?

[svg-developers] Re: postURL doesn't work in FF2 +ASV 6

2008-02-07 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Rodolfo,

ASV6 was never properly tested and there are known issues with 
Firefox.

Firefox, however, has its own native SVG support and Firefox3 (soon 
to be released) has improved in SVG substantially.

So I really recommend not relying on ASV for Firefox.

In Opera, Safari and Firefox you can use the XMLHttpRequest to do 
network requests. See http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/
network_requests/index.shtml for a wrapper function around getURL 
(for ASV and Batik) and XMLHttpRequest for other web-browsers.

Thank you for having a look it.

I think this would probably come close to what Bruce wants but it 
doesn't properly align when using curves (see upper example). Of 
course, I wouldn't expect it to work when there are discontinuities 
(lower example), but it would be nice if the glyphs would properly 
connect on the upper example.

[svg-developers] Re: GML to SVG...coordinates to pixels

2008-01-21 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hello,

your question can't be answered in general. Depending on the accuracy 
of the input data and the envisaged accuracy in the output 
(presentation) data, it might be useful to reduce the accuracy by 
rounding to fewer digits after the comma. But one has to experiment 
to avoid visible artefacts.

Another common technique is to use relative coordinates. But in your 
case, if you work with geographic coordinates (lon/lat), this does 
not help. Also, relative coordinates might introduce sliver polygons 
in complex polygon mosaics.

Some viewers (e.g. Firefox) may have problems with some coordinate 
systems, f.e. if all of your data is within 1 or 2 degrees, or if you 
use very large coordinates (e.g. UTM). This needs a little testing. 
If it happens with your data, it often helps to simple multiply the 
coordinates with a certain factor.

I collected a few issues for optimizing the geodata to SVG 
conversion: see the last section at http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/
postgis_geturl_xmlhttprequest/ - maybe some of the issues also apply 
to your conversion scenario.

I am also not so familiar with XSLT. I am more a scripting/
programming guy. I don't know how easy it is with XSLT to solve more 
complex conversion scenarios. Most scripting languages have good XML 
support, so its easy to read and generate XML with scripting 
languages.

Hope this helps,
Andreas

PS: if you have a good GML to SVG converter using XSLT I would be 
interested having a look at it, if you are willing to share.

 I am wondering the best way of plotting these using SVG... should I

this?
 
 Any help is much appreciated thank you.

[svg-developers] Change reference to external CSS file per script

2008-01-07 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi all,

I have an example at http://www.carto.net/neumann/temp/loadCss.svg 
where I use javascript to change the reference to an external CSS 
file by removing and creating a processingInstruction and appending 
it before the root element.

This works fine in Firefox and Batik, but fails in Opera and Safari. 
I don't dare to ask about IE/ASV, but I hope to find a way to make 
this possible in Opera and Safari?

Thank you for any hints.

[svg-developers] Re: Opera/Firefox performance

2008-01-03 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hello,

In my experience, Opera, Firefox and Safari are good enough for web-
mapping applications. You can see one example at http://www.carto.net/
williams/yosemite/ - which probably has similar filesizes like yours 
or even bigger.

Firefox2 is rather slow, but Firefox 3 is much better. Safari is 
quite promising, esp. with bigger files. Opera has good performance 
and is the most complete SVG implementation, but it can be a little 
slow for bigger files (3 elements in the DOM) but its improving 
from version to version.

Of course there are lots of places for performance improvements. For 
map data I also recommend trying to reduce the number of elements in 
the DOM (within the GIS) and gzipping (on the fly) on the map-server. 
See section Ideas to improve performance at the bottom of the web-
page http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/postgis_geturl_xmlhttprequest/ .

The Intergraph solution might not be as flexible as the Postgis/PHP 
solution described, but some ideas might help with Intergraph as well.

[svg-developers] Re: update on status of textArea widget

2008-01-03 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Jake,

What do you mean by multi-line textArea widget? Do you mean editable 
text or just multiline textflow.

Editable multiline text in SVG with scripting is very complicated. 
Just textflow itself can be done. See: http://www.carto.net/papers/
svg/textFlow/ and http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/textFlow/index.svg 
as an example.

Multiline editable text can be done with SVG 1.2, but I don't think 
any of the available web-browsers implement this (maybe an early 
preview of Opera, if at all).

Alternatively you can use HTML widgets with SVG if you need multiline 
editable text.

Andreas

--- In svg-developers@yahoogroups.com, Jake B [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 Hi, I was hoping I could get people's feedback on what the current
 best practice approach is for when a multi-line textArea widget is

 this is in SVG 1.2 Tiny, but I'm not sure how well that is supported
 across different user agents. For compatibility, it might still make
 sense to roll my own using textFlow style and JavaScript. Or perhaps
 there's an even better way.
 Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

[svg-developers] Re: Adobe SVG Plug in for Solaris 8?

2007-12-13 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi,

I wouldn't recommend the Adobe SVG viewer on Linux and Unix. It was
only a alpha-pre-release and never went through QA.

Depending on the features you need I recommend Opera, Batik or Mozilla.

Given that Java is well supported on Solaris, why don't you try Batik?
Batik SVN version supports SVG well, including SMIL animation.

If you need a browser environment try Opera or Mozilla Minefield (if
you don't need animation). Later, Webkit might also be an option. At
the current time, Opera is the best web browser with SVG support.

[svg-developers] Re: Problems with running Javascript in Batik Squiggle

2007-10-29 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Tony,

does your file work in other browsers like Opera, Firefox, Safari, 
etc?

the Adobe viewer was very forgiving when users used non-standard 
javascript/DOM methods. Other viewers are not. There might be some 
issues when trying to run SVG files specifically designed for the 
Adobe viewer. See http://jwatt.org/svg/authoring/ for some details on 
potential issues. If you follow these guidelines, your examples 
should work fine with all major SVG viewers.

Regarding Batik: it might be useful to check the nightlies, available 
from http://people.apache.org/builds/xml-batik/ or checkout the 
sources with svn. The beta is already quite old compared with the 
trunk.

Hope you can fix your problems,
Andreas

[svg-developers] Swiss Television: Election Results in SVG maps

2007-10-22 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hello,

As you might know, we had national elections yesterday. Not that I 
like the gains of the right-wing SVP party, at least the greens had 
substantial gains as well. But I'd like to share the fact that the 
Swiss Television publishes the results as SVG maps: http://
tagesschau.sf.tv/wahlen07/wahlen_2007/resultatekarten

On some Windows and Mac browsers it seems like it looks for the Adobe 
Plugin, even on browsers that render SVG natively, really annoying. 
On Linux it renders fine.

 that's excellent, http://www.sf.tv/wahlen07/nr/fedelecCN.svg
 performs well in Opera, Mozilla and Safari-Webkit on OS X

haven't tested it extensively.
 
 however the canton results onmouseover only appear in Opera (SMIL?)

I don't think it uses SMIL.

 this seems odd, do we know who the author is? (Ronan?)

it is a company in the western (french) part of Switzerland, called

[svg-developers] Re: Calling all geometry specialists: coordinate grid on a sphere (not OT)

2007-10-22 Thread Andreas Neumann

 I can imagine that drawing a single polyline between two crossings 
would do the trick, but 
 that would increase the number of DOM elements in a strong way. 
Since I have been 
 experiencing trouble with FF 2.0.0.7 (Mac) when drawing major 
amounts of SVG DOM 
 elements I would like to refrain from doing this. (Your opinion?)

I don't care about FF2 on the Mac, it is too slow and too buggy. It 
will be gone soon. FF3 is coming soon and is much faster, especially 
on the Mac. FF3 on Mac is just as quick as FF3 on Windows.

The number of lines you use is not very large, so there shoulnd't be 
any performance problems (besides maybe FF2 on the Mac). and yes, as 
Eric stated, clip-path may help you solve the problem with clipping 
off geometry outside the circle/ellipse.

[svg-developers] Re: Text flow and word wrapping

2007-10-07 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Jeff,

Text wrapping in a rectangular area is in SVG Tiny 1.2 (http://
www.w3.org/TR/SVGMobile12/text.html#TextInAnArea)

Opera 9.5 (alpha version), available from http://my.opera.com/
desktopteam/blog/, already supports textarea. If you look at this 
file (http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGMobile12/examples/textArea01.svg) - 
this should already display in Opera 9.5 alpha.

I don't know when other viewers will support it. If you think it is 
important, drop the Mozilla and Safari developers a line. I think it 
is a very important feature and hope that it will be implemented 
soon, even in SVG 1.1 viewers.

 Can anyone give their best guess on when text flow and word

 The working draft from 2002, says this:

 1. SVG 1.2 should allow word wrapping and forced line breaks 
for 
 text within multiple rectangles [SVG 1.2]
 2. SVG 2.0 should allow word wrapping, forced line breaks and 
text 
 flow within multiple shapes [SVG 2.0]
 3. SVG text should allow justification locations, such as the 
nine 
 standard positions (bottom, center, top with left, middle, right). 
 Note that this requirement will involve coordination with the CSS 
and 
 XSL groups, and investigation by the Internationalization group. 
[SVG

 4. SVG may allow text to be justified flush within a shape. 
[SVG 2.0]
 5. The transform attribute should be added to the tspan element 
[SVG 1.2]
 6. SVG should provide a method to define how whitespace is 
 handled. SVG may provide an attribute that defines how a text 
element 
 should handle whitespace, overriding the use of the xml:space 
 attribute. [SVG 2.0]
 
 Is there anything which is more recent that could fill me in on

 I am interested because of a long term project of my mine using a

[svg-developers] Re: USE elements in Safari - problems with events

2007-10-01 Thread Andreas Neumann
yes - this really is a restriction on the use element. If you want to 
get the reference to a use element, you have to use .currentTarget 
and place the event handler attribute on the use element directly, 
not on a parent group, as you might be used to do with regular shapes.

All proper SVG UAs act like you describe.

[svg-developers] Re: Text in SVG

2007-09-29 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Jerry,

It seems like your example uses some Adobe proprietary font inclusion, not a 
readable 
SVG font. Newer editions of Adobe Illustrator (CS2 and CS3) and CorelDraw can 
export SVG 
fonts. Alternatively, Batik comes with a tool to convert true type fonts to SVG 
fonts. The 
free fontforge application (works fine on various unixes/mac/linux, but harder 
to install 
on windows) can convert a large range of font formats, including svg fonts.

If you send me the gentium fonts (the download seems to be broken currently) I 
can 
convert the font for you and adopt your example. Or you could try any of the 
other 
methods yourself (Batik/fontforge).

Hope this information helps,
Andreas

[svg-developers] Re: svg filters?

2007-09-27 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Luca,

by latest version - do you mean version 3 or version 2? My guess is 
version 2. If that is the case, filters aren't supported in FF2x. 
Which would explain why your graphics appears flat.

In FF3 (Minefield/Gran Paradiso) many filters already work, but not 
all of them.

FF3 is also available for testing and is not too far away from being 
released.

[svg-developers] Performance of Firefox improved on the Mac

2007-08-08 Thread Andreas Neumann
I recently tried one of the nightly Firefox builds (http://
ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/) on the 
Mac and was pleased to find out that performance of Firefox on Mac is 
now the same than on other platforms (e.g. Windows). Due to 
information from Tim Rowley, this is due to an upgrade of the cairo 
version in the Mozilla tree.

So if there are people like me who almost gave up on Firefox on the 
Mac due to bad performance and rendering bugs this is now the time to 
give it a second try.

Safari doesn't support SMIL animation, just like Firefox. So no 
surprise that your animation doesn't work.

gzip compression is supported in the browser. It works fine for me. 
If it doesn't work in your case it might also be a server 
configuration problem?

Andreas

 Just tested and my The Spoon animation series are
 still not playing with Safari new beta. Everthing
 appears same time in the screen and wrong sizes.
 Seems, that support of AnimateMotion tag is not
 implemented. Also there is no support for compressed
 SVGZ format. Apple will have long way to go.

[svg-developers] Re: how to identify all elements at a point?

2007-08-06 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Simon,

yes, spatial subdivision and then a bounding box test before actually 
testing the bounding box really helps to speed up things. Kevin 
Lindsey has a number of useful geometry libraries on his website 
www.kevlindev.com - amongst them a polygon inside/outside and 
intersection tests. Depending on the element types you use his 
scripts might work fine for you. I am also using his path/ element 
geometry parser.

But really, the implementors should implement 
SVGSVGElement.getIntersectionList()

Andreas

 Hi David,
 
 Before I wrote my original post I considered both approaches you 
 describe.  With your response I started to develop solutions to 
both 
 in parallel.  I had some success with the approach of artificially 
 bringing all elements at a point to the front by setting the 
pointer-
 events attribute of the front-most element to null (and tracking 
each 
 element with a temporary id attribute so I could later remove this 
 and the pointer-events attributes).  However, I ran into some 
event 
 conflicts and reverted to the brute force approach of identifying 
 each element by its coordinates.  In my specific case, what makes 
the 
 peformance acceptable and not cumbersome is that my 'canvas' is 
 spatially divided into nested chunks so I can quite quickly locate 
 elements instead of iterating over hundreds of them.
 
 Thank you again for your input - it was very helpful.  Let's hope 
the 
 developers of SVG implementations add this to their feature lists.
 
 Simon

[svg-developers] getBBox() onload bug fixed in Firefox

2007-08-02 Thread Andreas Neumann
There is some good news that in one of the later Firefox 3 nightlies 
the nasty bug, that getBBox() doesn't work onload, is now fixed.

This means that once people switched from FF2 to FF3, we can remove 
our ugly hacks (e.g. setTimeout) to work around this bug.

I am very glad that this is finally solved!

Hi Simon,

SVGSVGElement.getIntersectionList( rect, referenceElement ) or
 .getEnclosureList(rect, referenceElement) would theoretically do the 
job.

Unfortuanetly it is only implemented in Batik ;-( It takes a

You can also ping the viewer developers to implement this very useful 
method.

Here is a very simple example:

 Hi folks,
 
 Is there a way that I can use the event model to identify all 
elements 
 that overlap a specific point on a mouse down/move event?  Or, do 
I 
 have to use clientX/Y and then test each element in turn?
 
 Thanks, Simon

[svg-developers] Re: pdf conversion

2007-07-27 Thread Andreas Neumann
ok, one option would be to send the serialized, modified DOM 
structure with a network request (postURL/XMLHttpRequest) to a server 
and let it render by Batik to a different format (PNG, JPEG, PDF). 
Once the file is rendered on the server, you provide a download link.

I use this way in our Yosemite mapping applications to create 
printable PDF files: http://www.carto.net/williams/yosemite/ -- 
printing tab. In our solution its not very fast, since for each 
request it spawns the java engine. Doing it with a servlet engine 
that always runs and waits for requests would be much faster.

Some viewers, like Opera also copy/paste the graphics into the 
clipboard, which would allow direct copy/pasting into word.

However, to reach a wieder audience and span different 
implementations I would use option 1. This would also allow you to 
get rid of certain GUI elements (if any) and only render the real 
graphics part of your file.

  PDF, SVG and Word are totally different file formats

  conversions 
  between those formats. PDF and SVG are closer to
  each other - those 
  two make sense to convert, but Word?
  
  Word is not about graphics, also word can't be
  precise like PDF and 
  SVG. Word can only embed graphics.
  
  On the other hand, SVG is not about mass text/flow
  text.

[svg-developers] Re: SVG Reach

2007-07-27 Thread Andreas Neumann
the numbers are hard to reach - somehow they collapsed. Can you 
repost with a better formatting? I understand that about 50% of your 
audience would be able to view SVG?

I think I have similar numbers. Luckily, the percentage of IE users 
is decreasing fast. Currently I only have between 40 and 60% IE 
users, depending on the website. A year before it had been between 55 
and 75%.

[svg-developers] Re: SVG in Safari 1 and 2

2007-07-27 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Steve,

No, Safari 1 and 2 doesn't support SVG. On the old PowerPC the Adobe 
plugin worked in Safari but on the newer Intel Macs it doesn't.

However, Opera 9 works very well on MacOSX. It is even a bit faster 
than the Windows version, and displays fonts nicer than on Windows.

As you know, Safari 3 will include SVG support. You can expect that 
Mac users will migrate to Safari 3 very quickly, once its out, since 
it will come with the automatic system updates.

Firefox on Mac works sort of, not very fast and with its own bugs. I 
don't really recommend Firefox on Mac.

[svg-developers] Re: Free SVG viewer

2007-07-17 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi,

most of the SVG 1.2 viewers are still under development.

The two viewers that are the most complete ones are commercial, from 
Bitflash and Ikivo.

Opera will also support parts of SVG 1.2 Tiny, so will Renesis. But 
both are still under development, esp. regarding 1.2.

Both Opera and Renesis are freely available for use, but not the 
source code.

QT from Trolltech also supports parts of SVG 1.2 tiny.

The only viewer that I know in the Open Source that works on SVG 1.2 
Tiny is currently GPAC. But this viewer, is also still under 
development, regarding 1.2 Tiny.

Hope this helps,
Andreas

[svg-developers] Re: 2 quickies...

2007-07-16 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Alan,

 1. I'm interested in using the Google Maps API to do the brunt of 
my
 mapping and drop some SVG (thematic map data) on top.  I've seen
 several examples of this sort of thing as the API supports SVG (in 
FF
 and Opera), but none that appear to include support for ASV/plug-in
 viewers.  Is this an unavoidable restriction or is anyone aware of 
a
 workaround?

this might be one of the limitations of rendering the SVG within a 
plugin as opposed to native implementation in the browser. I might be 
wrong, but I believe with ASV within IE one cannot arbitrarily 
overlay SVG ontop of HTML or vice versa. Maybe one can do something 
with the binary behaviors within IE, but I haven't looked at this, 
since it is IE only technology.

 2. For some time I've been using carto.net's UI widgets, which is
 great, but I'm wondering if there's a way of communicating between 
SVG
 content and HTML controls that is supported across the main SVG
 viewing installations (ASV,Firefox,Opera - [yes, and of course,
 Renesis, Alexander...]).Or - if maximum viewer support is the goal 
-
 are we still better off rendering the whole UI in SVG?

Communication between HTML and SVG and vice versa should work fine in 
IE, Opera, Firefox and Safari. In my experience IE7 does not properly 
work with the object tag, but works fine with embed.

SVG UI has some advantages/disadvantages. On the pro side, it 
integrates well with the rest of the SVG application and one can 
control the look and feel of the UI better. Also, the UI in SVG can 
scale with the whole application and adopt to different screen sizes. 
On the contra, it is harder to code and sometimes the SVG GUI might 
not work as expected by the user. One can probably fix these issues, 
but someone has to do it.

You have to weigh up the pros and cons against each other and see 
which one works better for you.

Andreas
