as i've told you before, i wish to later auto select the reordering mode, based on the metadata of the document. >> i've unified the patches for #55977 and #2981, so trying to apply the older >> patch for #2981 will fail and be not needed. >> >> however #2981 is more sexy then #55977 and #55979, these last ones are at >> the foundation of text handling support, so please apply both my patches >> for these. > > I'm a bit confused here, first you say #2981 will fail but then you say that > both patches should be applied? or is the both applying to #55979? > indeed, tu've got it right. the patch for #2981 has been included in the patch for #55977. as of #55979, it's a show stopper bug for extracting text from rtl documents with glib, and hence python. moreover, it's a regressive bug, as it has been introduced in a quite clumsy patch for rtl selection. > Cheers, > Albert > > P.S: Please in the future don't do what you just did, if you answer both here > and in the bug following the discussion is hard > >> >> #55979 shows and important regression to functionality once was better. i >> hope my later work on logical text selection would even solve the problem >> wrongly solved, which lead to #55979. >> but #55979 is a solution to last, since poppler_page_get_text (PopplerPage >> *page) has, as you see, no rectangle argument. so no need for rectangle >> handling. >> >> thanks in advance, >> alex >> >> On 11/26/2012 01:53 AM, Albert Astals Cid wrote: >>> El Dissabte, 24 de novembre de 2012, a les 10:04:38, alex bodnaru va > escriure: >>>> hello friends, >>>> >>>> thumbs up for the progress. >>>> >>>> however #2981 is more sexy, #55977 resolves a real design bug in a too >>>> superficial attempt to resolve visual to logical text conversion. >>> >>> Are you planning to answer my questions to #55977? >>> >>> Cheers, >>> >>> Albert >>>> >>>> sorry to lobby my own reports and patches (i just know them better), but >>>> #55979 fixes an even more annoying bug, with no workaround for the glib >>>> api >>>> users. python users rely on glib too. >>>> >>>> thanks in advance, >>>> alex >>>> >>>> On 11/23/2012 07:39 AM, Adam Reichold wrote: >>>>> Hello, >>>>> >>>>> Not sure if this question is intended for everybody on the list or >>>>> only the developers, but I'll just assume it's for everyone: >>>>> >>>>> Looking at the feature list and reading the bug tracker, I'd say that >>>>> thread-safety needs to be rethought.
