Do you think that just because there's a line in the source that says 
FIXME or TODO, someone would do it, sooner or later? I think not.


Thus a rant is a vote for a feature or fix.

Yeah, that's why I am starting this translation process now, rather  
than
waiting until the full text is in the template.pot.  Please report  
these
issues so I can fix them.  Its not hard to make the panel adjust  
width,
though oftentimes the panels end up getting quite wide in some  
languages.

...

I've tried to standardize the punctuation but haven't messed with the
language too much because its been around so long.  I think you are  
talking
about the iemguis (hslider, vslider, etc.) or do you also mean the  
gatoms

(number box , symbol box) and arrays.


Mainly talking about the iemguis, yes. I could imagine taking away the
-dimensions(pix)... headings and having boxes instead.


Unfortuntely, that's on the C side.  The iemguis are hard to modify,  
but its definitely possible.  One thing that might be easy is to  
localize those strange iemgui headers.



When it comes to labels getting cropped, i've so far only seen it
happen to the Messages labels in the iemguis, and now I see it
happen to the english translation as well. Maybe it would be and idea
to lose the symbol part of eg Send symbol and have a heading like
Message symbols, besides of course to make them take up the whole
width.


That's a good idea.  The hard part is which language to use.  How  
about this:


Bind symbols
Send:
Receive:

or maybe this:

Bind to symbols for
Send:
Receive:


And here I had a long rant about having checkboxes instead of buttons
for Init/no init until I viewed source and saw that it was already
planned...


Hmm, I wouldn't say planned as much as noted.  That wouldn't be hard  
to fix, and it would be all Tcl.  The more contributions there are,  
the better it gets. :)

[PD] openpanel window popup behaviour

2009-08-25 Thread glerm soares
Hiya,

Is the openpanel popup window for choosing files default behaviour to appear
back from the window you are running your patch? Seems tha this don't make
too much sense and the worse is that some people get stuck when the window
is invisible if the patch is with window maximized. I have seem this several
times...

Strange that in ubuntu-gnome with compiz working the default behaviour is
not that because the window is poping up in front of all patches. That's the
more desirable, but seems that's it is dependent of desktop configs?

Is there anyway to assure the openpanel window will popup in front of the
running patch window?

abraço

This is because in Pd, all dialogue windows are declared as transient 
windows of the main window.


... Whereas in Dd, each dialogue window is declared as a transient 
window of the window that had the focus at the moment of window creation. 
This should be what you want it to be 99% of the time.


Transient window means a window can't go under a certain other. This is 
supposed to be used for temporary windows that are associated to another 
non-temporary window in particular. It seemed to me like the consensus 
of the nineties was to ignore this setting, and at one point the new 
generation of window managers (which became default in linux distros) all 
supported the feature.

There are differences in how the concept of transience is interpreted. 
Logically, IMHO, if focussing on a transient window shall raise that 
window, it shall also raise its parent window up to just under itself 
(except for any other transient windows of that parent, that have to stay 
on top of the parent anyway).

Yes, look in desire.tk...

There is also an issue with how metacity window manager treats  
windows.  You can get around using [wm group .] This is added to Pd- 
extended 0.42.5 and pd GUI rewrite.


I found out this thing here:

[PD] pd 0.43 branch with the new GUI code

2009-08-25 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner


A complete rewrite of Pd's GUI is starting to be usable.  Miller has  
accepted the core of this code into his repo for 0.43.  Now we need to  
get the whole thing done!  There is now a branch for continuing off of  
Miller's initial 0.43 commit here:


http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/branches/pd-gui-rewrite/0.43

There is a wiki page to keep track of progress with build  
instructions, etc.:


http://puredata.info/dev/PdGuiRewrite

Try it out on GNU/Linux or Mac OS X, no one's tried to get it running  
on Windows yet, you could be the first.  Shouldn't be too hard since  
its all Tcl.  There is lots of work left to do, and you can contribute  
in many different ways. We always need testers, try using this Pd  
version in your normal work, and report any and all bugs, problems,  
feature ideas, etc. The simplest way is to contribute code is to  
create a translation for Pd. You can also look thru the Tcl source for  
things marked TODO and take a stab and doing them. If you want to  
improve the GUI, make the new Pd window for example, an announce your  
interest to  pd-dev to make sure there are no duplications of efforts.
