HI.

I have watched this from time to time and also downloaded. So, I must say: I like this. Very Happy

Last version I've tested was 1.4 - it could not set/paint a single dot.

Suggestion:

Make it able to draw a single dot and insert a function to zoom single dots to (let's say) 8 pixels (for the use of small images).

It could be then a very nice and really useful Icon Editor. Idea Very Happy Laughing

Hope you like this.

Sure I do like! Me personally can't draw a straight line, so I always appreciate such a help.
Your icon has been included.


PLEASE!

Sure you can, just choose "Line", increase stroke-width a bit, and...start making dots.

Just kidding, I know what you mean. Wink

You can do it this way: choose some bigger drawing area size to get control on details, eg. 480x480, make an icon and then save it as .png with 48x48 resolution.

Zoom option has crossed my mind, but it doesn't make sense really, since it's vector graphic, so even if some part of the picture would be zoomed, you couldn't see its "pixels" anyway.

I'm really hopeless in drawings, isn't that ironic..? Laughing

I couldn't stop myself: Version 1.6 uploaded.

Only one purpose: performance optimization in critical functions.
Result: ~15% less resource hungry.

Actually it's efficient enough to add (rough) preview for "Freehand" mode, what I did.
"Arc" preview has been improved too - now all stages of creation are shown.

First post updated.

Greetings!

BDraw looks promising but I have no idea how to use it in Lucid Pup 528005 (icewm as window manager)?

bdraw-1.61 reports "something is missing or doesn't work right" and "Double check requirements"

it is not an installable program so I do not know how to check for dependencies

bdraw-1.51 does work but it does not open existing png files, after I click on open picture the program returns to the Welcome to Bdraw dialog

BDraw won't load directly any other image type than .bdr (which is .svg really, but has "one-shape per one-line" layout).
If you'd like to include a .png image in your drawings, just choose "New" and then "Import Clipart" from Toolbox.

Ok, just launch the app from command line and post the results...

Deps are listed in the first post, but I don't recall including anything new between 1.5.1 -> 1.6.

And since you're running Lupu always choose '<button>' as drawing area in initial window, unless you have upgraded Gtkdialog to >= 0.8.1

There were some problems with IceWM + specific theme(s?) reported earlier and it's been fixed in 1.5.1, but apparently I broke it again in 1.6.

Greetings!

The console doesn't show much when I execute bdraw-1.6.sh (see screenshot)

But I am not sure yet if this is the tool I am looking for. What I would like to have is a simple screenshot annotation tool, something which does what shutter for ubuntu can or awesomscreenshot for chrome does
http://awesomescreenshot.com/
take a screenshot, add text / ellipses / arrows, perhaps a text bubble.
I know it can all be done with GIMP but it involves a lot of steps
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/create-speech-bubbles-screenshots-gimp/

Likely it can be done in mtPaint as well but I have not found a good tutorial yet

What really matters - what's the terminal output when you click 'New', adjust resolution (or not) and click 'Ok'?
Also, what's the name of your current theme? I'll try to recreate the issue.

As for annotation tool, the purpose of BDraw is just to doodle (i.e. there's no arrows and stuff), but as a last resort, why not..? Wink (see screenshot)

Greetings!

Subject description: bDraw 1.6		  
Hi SFR

Using icewm theme ElbergBlue-anim

(but I do not think that is important since the same thing happens in JWM)

This is the terminal output after clicking click 'New':

sh-4.1# testbdraw

(gtkdialog5:23535): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_spin_button_new_with_range: assertion `step != 0.0' failed

(gtkdialog5:23535): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_spin_button_set_value: assertion `GTK_IS_SPIN_BUTTON (spin_button)' failed

Ok, I see that <spinbutton> has something to do with this, but I still cannot recreate the issue under Lupu...
Could you post the exact version of Gtkdialog(s) you have installed?
Code:
gtkdialog --version
gtkdialog4 --version
gtkdialog5 --version

Also, it's worth to see how v1.6 works with pfix=ram and (it's a wild guess) with different GTK theme.

Meanwhile I attached version 1.6.1 - I replaced spinbuttons with comboboxtexts, as it was in v1.5.1, so hopefully will work ok for you now.

Greetings!

Hi SFR,

tested 1.6.1 with Slacko 5.4 today, and it's great Very Happy . Really good work. Haven't tested everything, but what I did by now, worked.

Not so with 1.6. Program allways stops quite after choosing picture resolution.

Error message:
Code:
# ./bdraw-1.6.sh

(gtkdialog4:26977): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_spin_button_new_with_range: assertion `step != 0.0' failed

(gtkdialog4:26977): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_spin_button_set_value: assertion `GTK_IS_SPIN_BUTTON (spin_button)' failed
**
ERROR:variables.c:189:variables_new_with_widget: assertion failed: (widget != NULL)
./bdraw-1.6.sh: line 1079: 26977 Aborted                 $GTKDIALOG -c -p MAIN
#

No matter I used my save file or pfix=ram, original gtkdialog 0.8.2 or new installed gtkdialog version 0.8.4 r503M. As you mentioned in your last post, there seemed to be a problem with the spinbuttons.

No problem for me, because 1.6.1 works fine Wink .

Cheers and thanks again Very Happy ,

Rolf

Hey, thanks a lot for confirmation, Rolf. Very Happy

But it still bugs me I can't recreate this. Confused
Anyway, before I replace v1.6 with v1.6.1 in the first post officially, I'd like to test one more thing.

Rolf, if you have a couple of minutes to spare - could you check out this piece of code?
First dialog (taken from v1.6) should produce the above error...but how about subsequent ones..?
Also, there's official spinbutton example script which also works fine for me.

Code:
#!/bin/bash

# This one should invoke GTK error
export MAIN_1='
<window>
  <vbox>
    <text><label>FIRST DIALOG</label></text>
    <hbox>
      <spinbutton range-max="100" range-step="1">
        <variable>SW</variable>
        <default>1</default>
      </spinbutton>       

      <spinbutton range-max="1.0" range-step="0.01">
         <variable>OPAC</variable>
         <default>1.0</default>
      </spinbutton>
    </hbox>
 
    <button><label>Next one please</label></button>
  </vbox>
</window>'

# How about this one?
export MAIN_2='
<window>
  <vbox>
    <text><label>SECOND DIALOG</label></text>
    <hbox>
      <spinbutton range-max="100" range-step="1">
        <variable>SW</variable>
        <default>1</default>
      </spinbutton>       

      <spinbutton range-max="1.00" range-step="0.01">
         <variable>OPAC</variable>
         <default>1.00</default>
      </spinbutton>
    </hbox>
 
    <button><label>Next one please</label></button>
  </vbox>
</window>'

# And finally how about that one...
export MAIN_3='
<window>
  <vbox>
    <text><label>THIRD DIALOG</label></text>
    <hbox>
      <spinbutton range-value="1" range-min="0" range-max="100" range-step="1">
        <variable>SW</variable>
      </spinbutton>       

      <spinbutton range-value="1.00" range-min="0.00" range-max="1.00" range-step="0.01">
         <variable>OPAC</variable>
      </spinbutton>
    </hbox>
    <button ok></button>
  </vbox>
</window>'

gtkdialog -p MAIN_1
gtkdialog -p MAIN_2
gtkdialog -p MAIN_3

Thanks again & Greetings!

Hi SFR,

it seems to be a general problem. spinbutton_advanced also doesn't work for me. Error code:
Code:
# ./spinbutton_advanced

Hope this helps,

Thank you Rolf!

Looks like there's nothing I can do about it at the moment...

Ok, I have attached v1.6.1 in the first post.

Greetings!

Thanks for the info Dromeno

Looks ok...I have no idea why doesn't it work for you and Rolf, even with pfix=ram...
Hope v1.6.1 runs ok for you as well.

Greetings!
