[Gimp-developer] please use the mailing-list

2006-12-30 Thread Sven Neumann
Hi,

I would like to ask everyone subscribed here to discuss issues with the
development version here instead of using Bugzilla. If you notice a
problem, please bring it up here before filing a bug-report for it. It's
a lot easier to discuss changes here; there's a larger audience and
mails are much easier to deal with than the Bugzilla web interface.
Thanks.


Sven

[Gimp-developer] gimp source code repository migrated to subversion

2006-12-30 Thread Sven Neumann
Hi,

you probably already know about it, but just in case that you don't...

The GNOME CVS repository is being migrated to Subversion while I am
writing these lines. gimp was one of the first modules to be migrated
and is already available on svn.gnome.org.  The command to check out the
trunk (this is the equivalent of the HEAD branch in CVS) is:

  svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gimp/

In order to check out the gimp-2-2 branch, you would use:

 svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gimp/branches/gimp-2-2

Working with Subversion is quite similar to working with CVS. Still, you
will want to yourself familiar with the differences. A good resource is
the Subversion book, available online at http://svnbook.red-bean.com/

Oops. That's the command to check out the whole tree, including all
branches. Sorry for the mistake. This should have read instead:

  svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gimp/trunk

Hi,

looks like we also already have write access to the Subversion server
now. If you actually want to commit to the repository, you will have to
check out the tree using ssh. The URL for trunk is then

  svn+ssh://svn.gnome.org/svn/gimp/trunk

[Gimp-developer] Fonts Dialog

2006-12-30 Thread iwkse
Hi all,

I would like to suggest a nice feature that is missing in fonts dialog.
Actually Font Dialog allow to rescan fonts and that would be really
useful if can be on it a function(just a simlink to a new font path in
user fonts folder) that allow to add/remove a font dir making possible
to add/remove dinamically fonts.
Such feature is useful when the user has a really high number of fonts
cause loading all them slow down whole gimp at the start.

Happy new years for all ML!

Why not just fix the slow startup instead? If your copy of fontconfig
would work correctly, GIMP would only have to scan the fonts the first
time it is started. Subsequent runs will use the cache file. If that
doesn't work for you, then something is wrong with fontconfig on your
system.

Well, if you *do* have thousands of fonts and they're all activated,
the font list is two kilometers long!  That's a problem not specific
to the GIMP, but system-wide.  I've been using an app (called
fontypython) that creates symlinks in ~/.fonts and then restarting
GIMP (or whatever program) whenever I need to switch fonts out.  It
would be nice to rescan for fonts, though I'm not sure how much work
would be involved.

I'd love to hear your thoughts...

You don't really need to restart GIMP.
Its enough to rescan and it's done.
Just click on open font selection dialogue and you'll find rescan.

Awesome!

Now I feel like an ass for requesting a feature that exists...
