Forgive me for being a back-seat driver, I know how frustrating it can be to receive unsolicited and uninformed comments from random users, yet here I go any way.
I can't speak for anyone else, but all I really need is for coordinates to be displayed in the GUI using the correct origin and it really doesn't matter at all how they are represented internally. Does the difficulty in implementing this arise from trying to change the whole internal coordinate system? Some of the comments seem to suggest this because they mention backwards compatibility and the xml (perhaps erroneously because the xml ironically is correct). If that's the case, has the possibility of flipping the values only upon display as an interim fix been considered? This may involve touching more areas of the code than the proper fix, but it sidesteps the backwards compatibility issues and is much less likely to introduce regressions because it shouldn't touch any positioning code. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/170049 Title: Inverted ruler co-ordinate system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/170049/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
