| thorwil | kwwii, hi. seems we are now running into the wiki "surge protection" with the Backgrounds page | 08:28 |
|---|---|---|
| thorwil | kwwii, maybe you could talk with newz about that | 08:29 |
| SiDi | hi thorwil | 08:30 |
| thorwil | hi SiDi | 08:30 |
| SiDi | couldnt we try to use some markup such as tables as fedora seems to do ? | 08:30 |
| SiDi | tables with just a pic + the author's name in each cell | 08:30 |
| SiDi | would be easier to read than this huge file | 08:30 |
| thorwil | SiDi, do you know how table markup looks like? | 08:31 |
| thorwil | it's terrible for editing | 08:31 |
| SiDi | hm, true :p | 08:31 |
| SiDi | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Karmic/Backgrounds#Coala%20del%20karma | 08:35 |
| SiDi | I like these ones | 08:35 |
| thorwil | is that the elephant skin texture in there? | 08:36 |
| kwwii | thorwil: hi | 08:37 |
| kwwii | thorwil: not sure what you mean | 08:37 |
| SiDi | I think the guy took some textures here n there yeh. But apart from that big logo, i like the overall aspect of the pic | 08:38 |
| thorwil | kwwii, it's an issue that arises if you have many images on a page. at some point, the wiki decides to show only some, but not all images | 08:38 |
| thorwil | kwwii, if you then try to see an image attachment or hi Reload imediately, you get a warning about the surge protection | 08:38 |
| thorwil | kwwii, and that you will get a longer timeout if you try to load right again | 08:39 |
| kwwii | thorwil: thanks for mentioning it...I'll find newz later today and see what I can do about it | 08:39 |
| thorwil | kwwii, good :) | 08:39 |
| kwwii | oh wait, I think he went home already | 08:39 |
| kwwii | but anyway, I will take care of it ;) | 08:40 |
| kwwii | I love the meditating koala, btw...nice stuff! We should talk to the author some more and see what we can get out of it | 08:40 |
| kwwii | the netbook peeps liked it as well | 08:41 |
| thorwil | kwwii, in this case we is mainly you ;) | 08:41 |
| thorwil | kwwii, i'm happy to offer further guidance if and where needed, but the "we want to use that" must come from canonical | 08:42 |
| thorwil | it's one skilled guy and very open to suggestions | 08:43 |
| kwwii | thorwil: yeah, I intend on getting in touch with him soon. if nothing else, for the alpha it would be perfect | 08:51 |
| thorwil | oh, how cruel: http://doctormo.wordpress.com/2009/05/26/uds-where-did-all-the-coffee-go | 10:59 |

| zniavre_ | background is with gnome-background pack (synaptic) | 15:07 |
| SiDi | any inkscape pro around ? :] | 15:08 |
| SiDi | I'd like to know if i can colour the start/end arrows of a line ? | 15:09 |
| knome | SiDi, i don't think you can separately | 15:10 |
| SiDi | aaaw | 15:11 |
| SiDi | And is there a way to turn my arrow into paths that i can then colorize ? | 15:11 |
| knome | not as separate paths | 15:11 |
| knome | :P | 15:11 |
| SiDi | And is there a way to get a sexy pink line+arrow at end whatever the method ? :D | 15:12 |
| knome | sure! | 15:12 |
| knome | path -> stroke to path | 15:13 |
| knome | oh my | 15:13 |
| knome | actually, just ungroup the stroke and the arrow | 15:13 |
| knome | or ctrl+click the arrow | 15:14 |
| SiDi | Yay \o/ | 15:14 |
| SiDi | Thanks knome :D | 15:14 |

| macvr | hi , anyone knows how to change the window background color of inkscape? | 19:19 |
| thorwil | macvr, do you mean the canvas color? | 19:24 |
| thorwil | if so, that's in File -> Document Properties, Page tab, General section | 19:25 |
| macvr | thorwil: i meant the display? i have set the canvas to transparent but the display is white , which makes it difficult to assess the colors | 19:29 |
| thorwil | macvr, with zero alpha, you see the always white background | 19:31 |
| thorwil | push the alpha up to get the color you specified | 19:31 |
| macvr | thorwil: so i can change the color first and then i can change it back to 0 alpha? | 19:32 |
| thorwil | sure | 19:32 |
| macvr | thorwil: but that wont have any change in the picture i'm creating, right? | 19:33 |
| thorwil | macvr, the alpha value does have an effect on exported raster images | 19:34 |
| thorwil | with zero, you get fully transparent background. a png will have an alpha channel in this case | 19:34 |
| thorwil | with 255 alpha, you get an export with solid color background | 19:35 |
| macvr | thorwil:damn, so there is no way of having the checks similar to the ones used in gimp? during editing? the only problem is i have difficukty judging the colors correctly! | 19:35 |
| macvr | difficulty^ | 19:35 |
| thorwil | macvr, i'm not aware of a way to get inkscape to draw a checkerboard. other than drawing it yourself | 19:37 |
| macvr | thorwil: oh... :( i think i just need to adjust! using gimp i got used to the checkers and the color selections... thanx anyway :) | 19:38 |
| thorwil | np | 19:38 |
| thorwil | i sometimes change the white to medium grey or black, depending on what i'm working on | 19:39 |
| macvr | thorwil: i think i'll do the same... but now... i'm trying to add the checker board to the layer below, lets see if that works | 19:40 |
