A Vaguely Seasonal Musical Greeting (AVMG)
To the tune of Old McDonald... an homage to our acronyms:

Old McDonald raised his arm
And pointed towards the sky
In SVG with ASV, he peered both far and high
With an Opera here, and a Firefox there
Here a star, there a star!
SMIL's not bizarre!
Yes, SVG is full of charm
IE IE, Oh!

 The above may be construed as seasonally relevant for many north of
 the Tropic of Cancer. Both are visible in either IE/ASV or Opera,
 though both run faster in IE. The first is mostly JavaScript with a
 touch, I think, of SMIL. The second uses JavaScript to make and
 remake the stars, and SMIL to move them along their paths.

Re: [svg-developers] Re: Announcement: Adobe to Discontinue Adobe SVG Viewer

2006-09-07 Thread Marjorie Roswell
Jon,

That was beautifully written. Thank you for your work and advocacy in the
SVG community. What's the next step for our community to take, regarding
items 3, 4, and 5?

Margie


On 9/6/06, jon_ferraiolo [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

   Hi Pat,
 Now that I am a member of the community and no longer an employee of
 Adobe, here is my reaction:

 (1) First off, I believe that Adobe deserves a great amount of
 appreciation for their contributions to SVG and the open standards
 world for their activities in previous years. Adobe provided a
 high-quality free implementation of an SVG viewer at large expense.
 (Pat, you know this perhaps better than anyone.) Adobe also has
 provided (and presumably will continue to provide) excellent support
 for SVG in some of its products, particularly Illustrator. Adobe has
 also made large contributions within the standards community on SVG.

 (2) It is understandable that at some point Adobe would announce the
 end-of-life for Adobe SVG Viewer. Since the Macromedia acquisition (at
 least, perhaps even earlier), it is clear that Adobe doesn't consider
 the SVG viewer to be strategic. Also, browsers are adding SVG support
 natively.

 (3) HOWEVER, I believe that some of the details regarding this
 end-of-life announcement are unacceptable to the community and not in
 Adobe's own best interests. To me, it is OK to stop support
 (presumably developer support and security fixes) on Adobe SVG Viewer
 in the relative near-term, but instead of giving four months of
 advanced notice (i.e., 1/1/07), it should be something measured in
 years, something in the range of 2-4 years. (Note: 5 years is the
 usual amount for developer-oriented software.)

 (4) It reflects badly on Adobe that it did not donate the ASV source
 code (at least the higher-level logic that sits above the graphics
 rendering engine) to open soure. If Adobe isn't going to use ASV, then
 it should give it to the community so they can use it. Given how Adobe
 promoted industry adoption of ASV in the early days and thereby
 convinced many developers to build mission-critical applications using
 SVG, it is the least that Adobe could do.

 (5) But the worst part of this announcement is the removal of ASV
 downloads as of 1/1/08, with no option for others to host a different
 ASV download site. As others have pointed out, this will be
 devastating to those poor souls who made a commitment to ASV in the
 past and need their deployed SVG applications to continue working in
 IE, which today has something like 80% market share and is unlikely to
 support SVG natively before a couple of years go by. This particular
 decision reflects badly on Adobe as a business partner with
 developers. If nothing else, I appeal to Adobe to rethink this part of
 their decision. How much does it cost a company to maintain a single
 web page that is already working? If ASV quits working in some
 situations, such as ASV not running under Vista, then just add text to
 the download page alerting people that ASV has been EOL'd and is known
 not to work with Vista. (But the better approach would be to open
 source ASV so that the community can fix any such bugs.)

 Jon Ferraiolo
 IBM

  Adobe has decided to discontinue support for Adobe SVG Viewer. There

  are a number of other third-party SVG viewer implementations in the
  marketplace, including native support for SVG in many Web browsers.
  The SVG language and its adoption in the marketplace have both matured
  to the point where it is no longer necessary for Adobe to provide an
  SVG viewer.
 
  SVG is an established vector image format. Adobe currently supports
  SVG in several of its authoring and server products, including
  Illustrator, InDesign, GoLive, Version Cue, Graphics Server,
  FrameMaker, and FrameMaker Server.
 
  Adobe customer support for Adobe SVG Viewer will be discontinued on
  January 1, 2007.
 
  For more information on this decision and answers to questions about
  the discontinuation of Adobe SVG Viewer, please see

[svg-developers] Trying to understand an application (from a user perspective)

2005-07-18 Thread Marjorie Roswell
I'm a little puzzled by: 
http://www.ika.ethz.ch/isakowski/migration/

Of course, I don't speak German, so that's part of the problem (that
is German?). Also, when I press the Mehr Info button, the help URL
isn't completely loading.

So, I understand all the usual stuff, panning, zooming, classes,
legends, colors (all nicely implemented), but I haven't figured out
what the boxes in the lower left-hand corner represent. I gather it's
some sort of aggregated data?

Curious,

Margie

Re: [svg-developers] SVG Demos in Firefox

 Subject: Dynamic SVG Example in Firefox and ASV
 
 
 I spent some time with the Firefox nightly build with SVG included (on
 windows 2000 and XP).  It is available here:
 http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/
  I
 just used the zip file and extracted it to a separate location so I
 didn't have to reinstall each time.  After starting it up, type
 about:config in the address bar, scroll down to find svg-enabled and
 change it to true.
 
 The Firefox developers are doing a great job!  I am impressed with how
 well this demo worked.
 http://www.wpsenergy.com/JayNick/OfficeBuilding/OfficeBuilding.svg
 
 Here are some things I found converting this svg from ASV to Firefox.
 1.  default namespace is required (ASV did not require it):
 xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg;
 2.  CSS definition for font-size must include units (ASV must default to
 px):   font-size:10px;
 3.  xlink:href is somewhat broken.  It only works by opening a new
 window.  If popup blocker is enabled (default), links are blocked.  (ref
 bug report:
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267657 )
 4.  script should not include type attribute as there is no value
 compatible with both ASV and Firefox. (ref
 http://www.mozilla.org/projects/svg/faq.html#script
 http://www.mozilla.org/projects/svg/faq.html#script  )
 5.  There are Doctype issues as well.  Firefox expects:
 !DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN
 http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd;
 ASV gives an unrecognized warning.  Taking it completely out seems to
 work for both.
 6.  Animation is not yet implemented in Firefox/Mozilla:
 http://www.mozilla.org/projects/svg/status.html
 
 I used getURL() for ASV and xmlHttpRequest() for Firefox to dynamically
 update the SVG so it works in both IE (with ASV) and Firefox.
 
 Thanks to all the developers contributing to Firefox/Mozilla SVG
 project.  Keep up the good work!

[svg-developers] Re: how to find a svg map ...?

2005-04-01 Thread Marjorie Roswell

If I weren't going on vacation, with many things to get done before
then, I'd offer to create it for you. Basically, you can create maps
from any GIS data. Whether it's free depends on a lot of things, but
if you tell me what you're looking for, and point me to a free data
source (in shp or mapinfo format) I could try to get it done, (but no
promises. )

Our community should try to create a really rich area of maps in openclipart.org
http://www.openclipart.org/cgi-bin/navigate/geography
There's not really a lot there, right now.

Let's all add to that site! Having a rich map area (in addition to
other content) there could do a lot to promote SVG, I think.

I wish I knew what you guys are talking about.

obsolete tag-soupers?
namespace-unaware things?
avoiding the doctype?

What should a relative newbie take away from this dialog? What should
I do differently when working with SVG?

Can somebody build a little clip file in textpad (a great text editor,
at textpad.com), to reflect best SVG practices?

Thanks in advance for tackling this question, 

(A two-part question, really:
1. What should I learn from this dialog?
2. Can anyone build concrete examples into textpad clip libraries
http://www.textpad.com/add-ons/cliplibs.html
I suspect (perhaps?) that the two SVG Clip libraries there may be a
bit out of date in terms of some of these issues being discussed...

 If you'd prefer to just get a vector outline, then much may depend on

Re: [svg-developers] SVG directory viewer?

Appreciate all your answers! Thanks.

There is a real need out there for a free SVG Directory viewer in Windows.

Sometimes I've seen this referred to as image cataloguing

Alas, I don't think any of these support SVG. (Would love to be proven wrong!)

Anyhow, Ill try the xstudio browser.

[svg-developers] Some SVG Tiny questions...

2005-03-26 Thread Marjorie Roswell

1. Has anyone prepared a comparison of SVG Tiny with Full-fledged SVG?
(i.e. a document just showing the differences)
2. Is there a way of looking at the file to know if it's created in SVG Tiny?
3. Is there a website of graphics that are sorted by the SVG version?

I guess, In part, I'm thinking about Opera, and trying to determine if
there are any GIS-like apps written that will support it.

 In my own experience, people have a lot of problems with viewing standalone
 svgs with 
 Internet Explorer, while other browsers work fine. To bypass these problems
 I would 
 recommend to put the svg application into a HTML file with an embed /
 element. Your 
 html code could look like follows:
 
 body style=margin:0;
 embed src=index.svg width=100% height=100% type=image/svg+xml 
 pluginspage=http://www.adobe.com/svg/viewer/install/main.html; /
 /body
 
 Add correct html headers and closing elements to the above structure.
 
 Using this workaround I did not hear from Internet Explorer users that had
 problems with 
 this approach.

[svg-developers] US County Map, working toward thematic mapping...

2005-03-16 Thread Marjorie Roswell

Hi all,

I've created a national county, MSA, and state map of the United
States. It's at:
  http://www.margieroswell.com/svg/nation.htm

It has some drawbacks:
- It's large and therefore sluggish. (Zipped svgz file is 2 mb. The
original FCC MapInfo file was not very generalized.)
- Also, this doesn't do much. In fact, it does little but default
viewer behavior That's where you come in! (well, if you want to.)

(Actually, apart from default behavior, there is some nice javascript
for turning on and off layers that seems to work well. Another feature
is that the IDs match the state and county FIPS codes)

What else can we do with this (if anything)?

First of all, looks like I need to find tools to generalize boundaries
(or maybe it's easier just to purchase pre-generalized county maps?)

I want to eventually be able to do choropleth mapping, and variable
sized pie charts.


Here are some good county-level data sources, in case you want to work
at that level:
 http://www.census.gov/popest/datasets.html
 http://www.ssi.nrcs.usda.gov/CustomData/DataCounty.html
 http://fisher.lib.virginia.edu/collections/stats/crime/ 
(That's Uniform Crime Reports County Data)


I do promise to release a state file (subset of this--just the state
layer) so that screen redraw isn't a problem, over the weekend. When
that's up (it's not yet) it'lll be at:
  http://www.margieroswell.com/svg/states.htm


The Holy Grail (great sample SVG map applications):
 http://www.carto.net/neumann/cartography/vienna/
 http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/us_population/index.html
 
http://www.statistics.gov.uk/about/methodology_by_theme/area_classification/la/svg/index.html
 http://www.InstantAtlas.com/

I'm aiming to climb the learning curve, and welcome others joining in
the merriment, at whatever level. If anybody comes up with something
interesting from this, carto.net has mentioned an interest in hosting
innovative solutions and basic tutorials...Carto.net is truly an
awesome resource.

On the homepage front, I should add that my margieroswell.com site is,
alas, hopelessly out of date (well... a year old) ..Will maintain as
time permits. Have to dig up some old MySQL password, I think.


I welcome participation by others in learning and sharing information
on building GIS-style SVG apps.

Drop me a line if this sort of mapping interests you... Let's see if
we can figure it out together, and maybe give back to carto.net,
too, as we develop our skills.

Margie

Re: [svg-developers] Re: Learning curve... and development environment

2005-03-15 Thread Marjorie Roswell

 What features and capabilities would you like or expect to find in 
 such application?

Well, one of the main features would be to be able to open my files. I
mean, I know that sounds basic, but for instance, amaya, and others
don't open files generated by Bill Thoen's wonderful little MapInfo
export utility (maybe the SVG programs have trouble with the
coordinate system, I don't know.). Also, a number of apps won't open
my  Instant Atlas (instantatlas.com) files. I wrote to RapidSVG, for
instance, and they bascially said that you can open RapidSVG-created
files, but not necessarily other SVG files

So, honestly, that's my first battle: getting the file open! Then,
being able to interact with the graphic and the DOM together...

I downloaded Sketsa, a basic viewer, but it's slow (maybe a memory
problem on my home computer?), and also doesn't have any sophisticated
interaction tools built in.

Batik's Squiggle also seems to be in essence just a viewer.

I tried looking at eclipse, which someone mentioned in this thread,
but couldn't really figure out what to do with it.


SVGComposer is so far the best tool I've seen to figure out what's
going on in an SVG file. And, thankfully, it actually opens my files.
But it doesn't have any tools to teach me how to do more interactive
stuff.

The holy grail of what I'm after, looks either like instant atlas or like 
http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/us_population/index.html

Andreas (thank you, Andreas!) has  a nice tutorial on how to do that
last one, and Tom (on this list) and I are going to try to figure it
out, but so far, we haven't even found a tool that can open my
geographic file, click on a state or county, and see the associated
elements. (the file is around 5 mb, since it has all the counties...)
SVGComposer has the ability to flash when you select an element in
the DOM, but the file is so big, I can't seem to even find it. Not
sure it actually is selecting in that file.

Anyhow, I am completely smitten with SVG (and although at work I'm
limited to non-open source programming environments, by fiat, and most
of the samples out there use open source stuff), I do intend to figure
out how to do wonderful stuff, even if I have to do it in just a
straight text editor.

So in sum:

- opening the file (most necessary)
- tools for basic interactive operations. 
- tools specifically for building GIS applications in SVG
- a good book (not written yet) on building GIS applications in SVG.

Andreas, would you like to write one? I'd be happy to help!

BTW, when I get some time (which isn't now) I'll make my state,
county, and MSA SVG file available, and see what tools people can
figure out to interact with it.

Best Regards,

Margie

[svg-developers] URL in browser status bar

2005-03-13 Thread Marjorie Roswell

one of the rare things I DON'T like about SVG is that an object that
is anchored (hyperlinked) to a URL only displays the URL in the
browser status bar for a split second. I really want an object to
behave like a standard HTML link in that regard. In other words, when
your mouse is over the object, the URL or its title is in the browser
status area (not just for a brief flash that goes by too fast too
read.)

Okay,  now I'm really puzzled. At first this code did precisely that.

?xml version='1.0' standalone='no'?
!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD SVG 20001102//EN'
  'http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/CR-SVG-20001102/DTD/svg-20001102.dtd'
svg width='100%' height='100%' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'
   title!-- How to have the URL show up, and stay, in the browser bar? --
   /title

   desc!-- wanting to have the URL show up in the status bar --/desc
a xlink:href=http://svgmapper.blogspot.com/;
rect x=10 y=10 width=100 height=100 fill=red /
/a

/svg

But then it went back to its behavior flashing the URL, and saying
Done after that.

Confused,

Margie

Re: [svg-developers] URL in browser status bar

2005-03-13 Thread Marjorie Roswell

  Perhaps I am confused about what you are looking for, but I use links like 
  this is svg sites frequently and the URL shows up in the status bar for as 
  long as hold the cursor over it

No, you're not confused.

I've narrowed in on the problem.

Seems that in Internet Explorer, the first view of the SVG shows up
with a proper URL in the status bar. But when I press F5 to do a
screen redraw (say, if I modify the document, or if I went to bring it
back to its default settings) the behavior totally changes. That's
when the URL flashes only for an instant precisely when you cross the
element boundary with the mouse, and then changes to Done. Nothing I
do brings back the original behavior after that

Ah, now, here's another weird thing! I just tried clicking on the URL
in the address bar, and it loaded a new instance of the browser
(complete with original url-in-the-status-bar behavior.) Each new
click loaded a new instance.

Now to firefox... well, it seems that every time I install ASV 6 (to
view in firefox, it also changes my IE installation to ASV6, which
doesn't work with my Instant Atlas SVG files.

So, definitely some weird glitches. The Done problem (Done showing
up in the status bar, instead of the URL) on the mouseovers every time
I press F5...can anyone replicate that?

Best Regards,

Margie

[svg-developers] Nice PowerPoint /SV tutorial, but Object library not registered

2005-03-10 Thread Marjorie Roswell

This is the second page of a very nice tutorial on placing SVG files
inside powerpoint.
http://www.indezine.com/products/powerpoint/ppsvg2.html

Problem is, when I get to step 6 (Your cursor will change into a
cross-hair - draw a rectangle anywhere on screen - don't bother about
the size and location now - we'll take care of that later)
Powerpoint yields only an Object library not registered message. Alas!

Would love to place SVG files into PowerPoint, but this is a stopper.

Other objects seem to work. SVG is the one that is recalcitrant. (Of
course, the very one I want to use!)

Any ideas on how to fix?

Sincerely,

Margie

[svg-developers] My correspondence with Blogger, re: SVG support.

2005-03-03 Thread Marjorie Roswell

My correspondence with Blogger, re: SVG support.  Alas, if I can get
SVGs to show up in my blog (SVGMapper.blogspot.com) blogger isn't
going to be the one to help me do it. Any ideas? Even if someone could
solve the problem of not needing an external file to view an svg in an
html document, I think I could take it the rest of the way to make it
work in my blog. (Is that possible? Or does an SVG always have be an
independently referenced file?)

Re: [svg-developers] MID/MIF to SVG conversion

2005-03-02 Thread Marjorie Roswell

  I have a bunch of MID/MIF files and I would like to convert them to 
  SVG format. Can anyone give me a hint of how to do this ?

These three MID/MIF to SVG converters require that you have MapInfo to
perform the conversion:
 http://www.svg-builder.com/specifications.html
 http://www.gisnet.com/notebook/SVG_mapping.htm
 http://www.dbxgeomatics.com/SVGMapMaker.asp?Language=EN

This one is a stand-alone GIS conversion tool (but also costly, I
think?) converter
 http://www.safe.com/news/2002/32/

Definitely an opportunity for someone to write a shareware utility to
convert MIF/MID without needing a whole GIS package. It would be
appreciated and used by the GIS community.

Here's a copy of the MIF/MID specification

[svg-developers] Directory Thumbnail Viewer for SVG files?

2005-02-28 Thread Marjorie Roswell

Is there a tool in windows that will allow rapid viewing of SVG files
in folders?  The Internal Explorer to Windows automatically lets you
view thumbnails of JPGs, GIFs, etc. but not SVG files. I don't think
Google's new picasa Views SVG files, either.

Any ideas welcome!

Thanks,

Re: [svg-developers] SVG showing up as XML text file in browser (viewer IS installed)

2005-02-27 Thread Marjorie Roswell

I appreciate all the help.

Still some glitches, though I've followed the directions below.

Weird glitches, and I wonder if anyone has any ideas.

Check out EpiQMS, the Pennsylvania Epidemiology Query Management System
http://app2.health.state.pa.us/epiqms/Asp/ChooseDataset.asp

When I view the maps in IE, no problem.

Under Firefox, although I do get the outline of the map, the colors
are not filled in, and in particular, the legend, instead of
containing data, only says ! for each entry.

Likewise, these maps don't show up properly in Firefox, so it's not
unique to that EpiQMS application:
http://healthcybermap.org/PCT/STDs/

These are both awesome applications. Can anyone figure out how to view
them in Firefox?

[svg-developers] SVG showing up as XML text file in browser (viewer IS installed)

2005-02-26 Thread Marjorie Roswell

This one feels dumb, but I haven't been able to solve it yet.

I can view, this SVG file (for instance, and many others ) in my browser:
http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/samples/mouse_over_effects.svg

But when I save it as a local file (or create my own SVG file) I just
get the display of the xml with the plus and minus signs in my IE
browser. Same thing is true if I use the built-in browsers on various
of my web developer tools (Dreamweaver, and Namo): Just text, no
graphics.

I'm also the one who posted the request on how to embed SVG into a
blogspot blog. For whatever reason, I can see the message at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers/message/47856
But it never seemed to arrive into my gmail account.)

Anyhow, mysteries of the universe. I'd really love to get started with
SVG, but at least at home, I can't create files and view them (yet.)
No problem on the browser at work.

At first I thought the problem had something to do with switching from
textpad to the browser, but having downloaded an SVG that I can view
over the web, but not if it's local, I'm a bit stuck.

Sincerely,

Margie

P.S. In the file associations, it looks like I have the option to call
an SVG an SVG document or an HTML Document. Is one preferred over
the other?

Re: [svg-developers] SVG showing up as XML text file in browser (viewer IS installed)

2005-02-26 Thread Marjorie Roswell

I downloaded Firefox, love its speed, appreciate the tip, but alas, I
think I've downloaded and run the version 3 and version 6 ASV a slew
of times, and I still can't see SVG files in Firefox. It's 1:10 on a
Saturday night. Oy, the things we do.

Any hints?

Margie

[svg-developers] SVG embedded in a blogspot blog?

2005-02-25 Thread Marjorie Roswell

Hi, I'm brand new to SVG, but smitten. I figured I'd start a blog, 
http://SVGMapper.blogspot.com/ to document development as I start from
ground zero. (maybe a better word for that!)

Already, I see I've met a challenge...I want to be able to provide
samples via the blog. I don't think I can upload files. I'm looking
for an inline text solution. Note, that I've found, and put a link to
http://www.jenitennison.com/xslt/utilities/svg-utils.html, but even
that solution requires linking to an external file.

Has anyone (or can anyone) figure out how to include SVG in a blogspot blog?

Sincerely,

Margie
