| | <<<Back 1 day (to 2013/05/09) | 2013/05/10 |
| mvrhel_laptop | henrys: the windows viewer is starting to look pretty good now | 05:44.55 |
| | just need to clean up the zoom, and fix a couple minor issues when the device is rotated | 05:45.25 |
| | and clean up my tab spacing issue | 05:45.32 |
| | and a few other minor house keeping things | 05:45.46 |
| | I need to stop and work on slides tomorrow | 05:45.52 |
| | it is hard to stop though when you are getting close | 05:46.08 |
| | sleep time | 05:51.11 |
| Robin_Watts | Morning tor8 | 08:33.38 |
| | various reviews on robin master | 08:33.57 |
| | The svgwrite one could go in now too I guess. It's not complete, but it doesn't crash, and it makes a good effort at most stuff. | 08:34.01 |
| tor8 | morning Robin_Watts | 08:52.15 |
| | Robin_Watts: why don't you call pdf_keep_gstate in copy_state*? | 08:54.11 |
| Robin_Watts | I could common up pdf_keep_gstate and copy_state. | 08:56.16 |
| | but then I'd have to split off copy_state_no_colors | 08:56.29 |
| | I can rejig it if you preter. | 08:57.09 |
| | prefer, even. | 08:57.16 |
| | brb | 08:57.53 |
| tor8 | I'd group keep/drop/copy gstate next to each other at least, to make it clear at a glance what each one does in regards to ref counts | 08:58.02 |
| | and rename it pdf_copy_gstate(_no_colors) for symmetry | 08:58.23 |
| | typo in "tweak png" comment, "doesn NOT" | 09:00.19 |
| | maybe rename fz_output_pixmap_to_png to fz_output_png for symmetry with fz_write_* | 09:01.26 |
| Robin_Watts | tor8: seems reasonable. | 09:24.21 |
| | tor8: Now I'm confused how this works at all. | 09:34.25 |
| | pdf_copy_gstate doesn't copy the whole gstate, only a subset. | 09:34.40 |
| | I'll have a think about it when I get back from standing in a field missing clays. | 09:34.59 |
| tor8 | have fun and don't get too much sunburnt | 09:35.20 |
| kens | I don't know about Robin, but we have no sun today :-( | 09:40.48 |
| tor8 | my head is bright red from yesterday's sun :( | 09:44.15 |
| sebras | is safe and sound, being indoors... | 09:47.43 |
| Robin_Watts | was just enough sun to be warm. and I wore a hat. | 11:37.47 |
| paulgardiner | tor8: of course best to avoid getting burnt if possible, but there is some new research that suggests further benefits of sun exposure, significantly enough that the medical profession is considering changing advice. | 11:39.43 |
| tor8 | paulgardiner: more benefits than stocking up on vitamin d? | 11:40.58 |
| paulgardiner | Yes. Something that reduces blood pressure. | 11:41.23 |
| wart__ | hi folks. i was reading over the news for 1.2 and i have a couple of questions: what does this mean: Highlight and copy text selection API. | 11:41.47 |
| paulgardiner | I think it was nitrous oxide, but that sounds weird, so perhaps I'm misremembering. | 11:41.56 |
| wart__ | does it mean that mupdf now allows for 'highlight' style annotations? | 11:42.01 |
| | and what does this mean: Oversized and stroke text clipping implemented. | 11:42.19 |
| Robin_Watts | wart__: mupdf does now support highligh style annotations. | 11:42.40 |
| | but that may not be what that sentence is to do with :) | 11:42.52 |
| tor8 | wart_: it means there is a convenient api for clients to find regions to highlight and also to perform text searches | 11:42.57 |
| wart__ | Robin_Watts: does now or does not? | 11:43.12 |
| | Robin_Watts: just to be clear :-) | 11:43.18 |
| Robin_Watts | does now. | 11:43.20 |
| wart__ | heh | 11:43.23 |
| | great! | 11:43.25 |
| wart__ | emerge -C okular | 11:43.41 |
| Robin_Watts | previously there were limitations in the text clipping styles that we supported. | 11:44.02 |
| tor8 | oversized and stroke text clipping are bug fixes. we used to have a hard limit on just how large text could be. now we don't | 11:44.16 |
| Robin_Watts | now we cope with the cases that we didn't before - namely oversized text and stroked text. | 11:44.26 |
| wart__ | tor8: ah thanks | 11:44.27 |
| | what of 'post-it note' style annotations? | 11:44.44 |
| | wow lots of movement on the git log | 11:45.00 |
| | did you guys get funding? oh right, its summer vacation! | 11:45.14 |
| tor8 | wart__: we can (and have been able to, for a very long time) display most annotations | 11:45.20 |
| Robin_Watts | wart__: MuPDF is commercially funded. | 11:45.36 |
| tor8 | creating annotations is a new project for us, so very recent and still in progress | 11:45.41 |
| wart__ | tor8: hmm, there must be a trick. is it documented? all i get is the sticky-note but i can't read the data contained in it | 11:45.44 |
| Robin_Watts | annotation support may be post 1.2 | 11:46.00 |
| wart__ | Robin_Watts: maybe i'll move to the git head. | 11:46.29 |
| tor8 | wart__: I suspect (but don't quote me) that the sticky-note has two different display modes that you can toggle by clicking on it | 11:46.31 |
| | we only draw the default one so far | 11:46.38 |
| wart__ | tor8: i've tried various clicks on it, but i can't get it to open (in 1.1) | 11:47.07 |
| | i'll try 1.2 then git head | 11:47.12 |
| tor8 | wart__: only the android app supports interactive features like clicking on things | 11:47.28 |
| wart__ | oh, right. i'm on linux. | 11:47.45 |
| tor8 | yeah. I'm sorry. the desktop viewer is a bit behind on the features. | 11:48.12 |
| wart__ | tor8: so not even git head will have it? | 11:48.38 |
| tor8 | wart__: no. git head will have a performance fix though, for a problem that snuck into the 1.2 release | 11:49.23 |
| | scrolling and zooming on linux may be very slow on linux in 1.2, that's been fixed in head | 11:49.45 |
| wart__ | tor8: is there an ETA on getting the linux client to have highlight and annotations features? | 11:50.46 |
| tor8 | "When it's done." | 11:51.12 |
| wart__ | i mean is it on the books? | 11:51.19 |
| tor8 | improving the linux viewer is my next task | 11:51.27 |
| wart__ | is it something that might get done? :-) | 11:51.30 |
| tor8 | so it should get done. but gui programming is such a bore, I dive on any opportunity to avoid it :) | 11:51.49 |
| wart__ | tor8: well, i among many others in the linux community would love it. so far okular is the only thing that seems to support annotations, and it has terrible loads of dependencies | 11:51.55 |
| | hehe | 11:52.07 |
| tor8 | I have an experimental branch on my personal repo which has the beginnings of a rewrite of the linux viewer | 11:52.29 |
| wart__ | tor8: you are Tor Anderson on the git, right? | 11:52.50 |
| tor8 | it's based on Gtk+ (so I don't have to reinvent text input boxes... the one in the current mupdf app is dreadfully inadequate) | 11:52.54 |
| | wart__: correct. | 11:52.57 |
| | well, almost correct. Andersson with a double s. | 11:53.12 |
| wart__ | tor8: you might think about using the dmenu/dwm draw.h stuff. probably too minimal. | 11:53.37 |
| | is this the branch you are talking about? http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=user/tor/mupdf.git;a=summary | 11:54.24 |
| tor8 | http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=user/tor/mupdf.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/viewer | 11:54.38 |
| kens | Fun weith Lego: | 12:25.50 |
| | http://www.flickr.com/photos/peggyjdb/8643486198/sizes/l/in/photostream/ | 12:25.51 |
| | "Can you tell what it is yet ?" | 12:25.51 |
| paulgardiner | Well the one in the middle is Turing | 12:37.04 |
| kens | :-) | 12:37.12 |
| | THe one in the middle looks like a lady to me.... | 12:37.35 |
| paulgardiner | Oh yeah. Maybe not then | 12:37.51 |
| kens | (admittedly its hard to tell with Lego) | 12:37.56 |
| paulgardiner | I think my guess as to the location is probably wrong anyway. | 12:38.47 |
| kens | Where do you thnk >? | 12:38.57 |
| paulgardiner | Bletchley Park | 12:40.42 |
| kens | Yep, its the colossus mark 2 | 12:40.56 |
| paulgardiner | Ah right. On second look I thought there might be too few of those sticky-out red and black things. | 12:41.32 |
| kens | THere are way too few, but its a fair attempt for Lego | 12:41.48 |
| chrisl | It looks more like a variation on a Bombe | 12:42.02 |
| kens | http://www.tnmoc.org/sites/default/files/styles/lightbox/public/colossus22.jpg?itok=5xhYZ_Fw | 12:42.14 |
| paulgardiner | And I'm not sure what the floor clamp is for and the big pulley wheels. | 12:42.25 |
| kens | THe tape reader is the give away | 12:42.27 |
| | the big wheels are the tape | 12:42.43 |
| paulgardiner | Oh wow | 12:42.53 |
| kens | Well, they run the tgape.... | 12:43.33 |
| | the clamp is that stand with teh typewriter affair on it (a modified enigma I htink) | 12:43.54 |
| | Actually, on closer inspection, it may just be an output termianl | 12:45.38 |
| henrys | off to the coffee shop for a change of scenery - bbiab | 13:53.39 |
| Robin_Watts | aargh. patterns are bonkers :( | 16:12.05 |
| kens | yep | 16:12.14 |
| deleet | you're bonkers | 16:15.50 |
| | patterns are awesome :D | 16:15.55 |
| kens | Not the way they are defined in PDF | 16:16.24 |
| | Anywya, night all | 16:16.29 |
| Robin_Watts | night kens. have a good weekend. | 16:16.42 |
| | bah. | 16:16.44 |
| | Bah, bah, and thrice bah. | 17:18.54 |
| | Kens comments have sent me completely off in the wrong direction, I think. | 17:25.04 |
| | A patterns ctm comes from a mixture of the top level page ctm and the pattern matrix. | 17:26.06 |
| | It is unaffected by any changes of matrix due to any intervening xobjects. | 17:26.42 |
| | or any matrix setting at the top level. | 17:27.45 |
| | hence we don't need to store a parent ctm at each content stream entry. | 17:28.22 |
| | (I am not blaming kens here.) | 17:28.56 |
| | tor8: ping | 17:46.07 |
| tor8 | Robin_Watts: yeah, your moving of the topctm up to the content stream beginnings looked a bit odd | 17:52.09 |
| Robin_Watts | tor8: so, did you look at the svgwrite device? | 17:52.31 |
| | I've made the corrections to the commits you asked for and pushed them (but not the gstate one obviously) | 17:52.55 |
| tor8 | svg device looks sound. typedef tile is a bit dangerously close to colliding with variable names. | 17:54.41 |
| | (I dislike typedefining structs as a general practice, but it's what we settled on doing 10 years ago when defining the coding standards for mupdf) | 17:56.07 |
| Robin_Watts | suggestions for better name ? | 17:56.07 |
| tor8 | prefix it svg_tile | 17:56.15 |
| Robin_Watts | ok. | 17:56.23 |
| tor8 | or let it be "struct tile" | 17:56.26 |
| | for internal types, I don't really think it matters | 17:56.42 |
| | whether they have typedefs or require the struct keyword | 17:56.54 |
| | another thing I've found to be good way to print xml strings is to put the space before the attributes. makes it easier to concatenate and not get extra spaces on the end | 17:57.53 |
| | printf("<tag"); printf(" attr=%d", a); printf(">\n"); | 17:58.16 |
| | i.e. putting the space before the attribute, and leaving it off the end of the tag | 17:58.40 |
| Robin_Watts | tor8: yeah. I understand. | 17:58.46 |
| | I probably had a reason for not doing it that way for the first one, and the others followed. | 17:59.04 |
| | I'm not changing that immediately though :) | 17:59.15 |
| tor8 | it's counter-intuitive to do it that way (space before) but it works out better in the end | 17:59.30 |
| Robin_Watts | yes, you may be right. | 18:01.10 |
| mvrhel_laptop | whew. ok with a bit more work I have the zooming working nicely in with windows viewer now. | 19:43.14 |
| Qcoder00 | Hello? | 22:46.18 |
| | Where in the documentation are the exit levels documented? | 22:46.30 |
