Hi,
I'd like to have in xournal beside the ruler tool a rectangle tool.
This would be most useful when highlighting formulas.
I'm currently using Shape Recognizer trying to make a rectangle with it.
But it only works sometimes, and there's no more frustrating tool than the
one that
works only sometimes.
I've made a quick fix to make ruler tool do exactly what I want
(but I loose ruler functionality doing so):
in xo-paint.cc:
@@ -333,6 +333,23 @@
void finalize_stroke(void)
{
+ if (ui.cur_brush->ruler) {
+ double x1 = ui.cur_path.coords[0];
+ double y1 = ui.cur_path.coords[1];
+ double x2 = ui.cur_path.coords[2];
+ double y2 = ui.cur_path.coords[3];
+ ui.cur_path.coords[2] = x2;
+ ui.cur_path.coords[3] = y1;
+ ui.cur_path.coords[4] = x2;
+ ui.cur_path.coords[5] = y2;
+ ui.cur_path.coords[6] = x1;
+ ui.cur_path.coords[7] = y2;
+ ui.cur_path.coords[8] = x1;
+ ui.cur_path.coords[9] = y1;
+ ui.cur_path.num_points = 5;
+ ui.cur_item->brush.variable_width = FALSE;
+ }
+
if (ui.cur_path.num_points == 1) { // GnomeCanvas doesn't like
num_points=1
ui.cur_path.coords[2] = ui.cur_path.coords[0]+0.1;
ui.cur_path.coords[3] = ui.cur_path.coords[1];
Unfortunately I don't know how to edit the GUI to finish the job.
Could you please include this tool into xournal?
regards,
Oleh
