Re: [ubuntu-art] Icon for LibreCAD (future CAD program in Edubuntu/Ubuntu)
The splash looks good; I would reduce stroke width on the crosshatching and maybe add a engineer's grid to the background. -- Saleel Ok added the grid and made it thinner Thick http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2869749/splash.png Thin http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2869749/thin%20splash.png thoughts? -- Kind regards, Alexander King Oxodise Media | ABN: 93 128 144 953 310 24 oxo (310 24 696) | enquir...@oxodise.com | www.oxodise.com -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

Included with v0.4: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/2011/01/23/backtestground-0-4-context-extraction-automated/ Thanks! I'm glad to work on something meaningful. I've googled for a way to do this in KDE 4 and found none. It used to be done via dcop in KDE3, but it's gone in KDE4 and looks like there's still no replacement for it. Proof link: http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?p=86449sid=5fb9da0115274b7f46806e3fb8f8ac6f#p86449 Though, even better than all of this would be a low level approach that gets the code responsible to draw all the stuff seen on top of the background to do so for various resolutions and to save that in image files right away. I doubt it's possible, but there's a way to switch between screen resolutions from the command line, so we can take screenshots of the real context in that resolution. We can even set higher resolutions than the monitor supports. It doesn't work with Nvidia proprietary driver, but works fine with everything else. Probably you can reuse large pieces of code from this script: http://gtk-apps.org/content/show.php/newrez+-+Screen+resolution+with+scaling?content=134686 Respectfully, -- Sergey Shnatsel Davidoff -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
Re: [ubuntu-art] Backtestground Explained
Oh, and it would be a very nice not to be limited to zoom mode. I'd appreciate the ability to test other options: centered, scaled, stretched, zoom, spanned, there also was some weird name for tiling. And for scaled and spanned options arises background color problem, so you might need to implement that someday as well. Making gradients is simple with Imagemagick - just write a primitive SVG gradient template and pass it with the needed colors to render it or (even simplier) generate a 2-pixel BMP image (from a template, of course) and make imagemagick resize it with linear or bicubic interpolation.
