Dear all, Simon Guest's enhanced image patch has been finally reviewed, cleaned up, and incorporated into the xournal CVS repository.
If you have time and interest, please test thoroughly the CVS version, as the code of the patch has been modified significantly. In particular, the code to rescale and display at different zoom levels has been simplified considerably, and the images now look better on my system (Fedora 16), but I'd be interested in confirmation that this is also the case for everyone. User-visible changes, besides the invisible code cleanup under the hood: - a just-inserted image can now be copy-pasted (cut/copy were disabled); - "busy" cursor when compressing an image to the clipboard upon cut/copy, since it can be a lengthy operation; - image rescaling is left up to gnomecanvas, which does a better job than the code in the existing patch (at least on my system, things look much crisper that way); - it's now possible to map button 2 or 3 to the image tool. Next to do items for me in relation to this patch (in the coming days): - paste and selection resize mistakenly re-stack the selected items on top of the selection rectangle; - for the select tool, clicking in an image should select it (as with text zones) - there should be an option for the image mode to revert to the previous tool (so that the "image" tool acts as a one-time command rather than a tool) - should be able to directly paste text into xournal, same as images, without having to first create a text zone. (I know how to do all of these and will do them soon, no help needed.) Please let me know if you notice any regression compared to the existing image patch. Thanks!
