[mcclim-devel] pointer-tracking problems after last CVS update
by Evgeny M. Zubok 23 Aug '07

23 Aug '07

After last CVS update something changed in pointer tracking procedure (pointer-motion-event?). clim-fig example shows this issue when dragging the pointer with pressed button while drawing, say, ellipse. The movement becomes less smooth. It's regression.

[mcclim-devel] freeze time for mcclim 0.9.5 "Eastern Orthodox Liturgical New Year"
by Andreas Fuchs 20 Aug '07

20 Aug '07

Hi there, it's been too long since the last mcclim release. To hit the beginning of the Eastern Orthodox Lithurgical New Year, the release deadline is Sep 1. So, I say we freeze on Sunday, Aug 26, and release on Saturday Sep 1. If you have patches that should be added to mcclim, between now and Aug 26 would be the perfect time to send them. Also, if you feel compelled to try out the cool new stuff in McCLIM (and help us discover bugs along the way), this is a really good time for that, too. Happy testing, -- Andreas Fuchs, (http://|im:asf@|mailto:asf@)boinkor.net, antifuchs

I gave Troels instructions for reproducing the bug earlier today, and he couldn't. The instructions used Courier Default Ugly, and went: (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :gsharp) (clim:run-frame-top-level (clim:make-application-frame 'fontview::fontview)) Antialias View SPC ; and mouse over Troels was unable to reproduce it, but I now have a guess why. I'm lazy with capital letters in clim, since it corrects them for me, so I type "antialias SPC". When I hit the SPC and the initial a is upcased to A, I think that is when the oddities begin. (This is just a guess from examining the visual effect that I now see when at the command prompt, and not based on reading any of the code). Cheers, Christophe

[mcclim-devel] Gtkairo backspace issue
by Jeremy Rayman 17 Jul '07

17 Jul '07

It's great to see the additional keylayout support from this gtkairo commit: http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/mcclim-cvs/2007-July/001019.html But the following line appears to have broken my backspace key: +(DEFINE-KEY 65288 ((4 8 0) :BACKSPACE #\Backspace) (T :TERMINATE-SERVER NIL)) Now whenever I hit backspace in a McCLIM app I get the message "TERMINATE-SERVER is unbound", and nothing gets deleted. Commenting the aforementioned line makes the backspace key work fine. If it helps, here's the Xev readout for my backspace key. KeyPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x1800001, root 0xa6, subw 0x0, time 3530064260, (289,239), root:(1826,1282), state 0x10, keycode 22 (keysym 0xff08, BackSpace), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (08) " XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (08) " XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x1800001, root 0xa6, subw 0x0, time 3530064392, (289,239), root:(1826,1282), state 0x10, keycode 22 (keysym 0xff08, BackSpace), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (08) " It could also be worth noting that I use the dvorak keyboard layout.

[mcclim-devel] bezier simplification
by Christophe Rhodes 17 Jul '07

17 Jul '07

Hi, I think the attached patch implements a slight simplification of convolution of areas with regions: since segments within bezier curves are by construction connected (p3 of one segment is p0 of the next), the convolution was including duplicates from the region at successive endpoints. The gsharp :quarter-rest becomes a union of 32 bezier areas with this patch (down from 47), and doesn't look noticeably different to me, either with the X or the html canvas output methods; the canvas output is overall smaller by 20%, just from this change. I believe that there are still duplicate regions in the quarter rest, but if this change could be reviewed I'd be happy. Cheers, Christophe

[mcclim-devel] Tooltip stuff
by Fred Gilham 15 Jul '07

15 Jul '07

A few weeks ago I posted some code to do tooltips. I now have a new version that is more intelligent about placing the tooltip. Nobody responded to my previous message so I'm wondering if anyone is interested in this. It's not particularly "CLIM-y" I suppose. Anyway here it is. It does show up some issues with McCLIM's erasing and drawing stuff. For example, if you compile this code and the three test functions, then run (clim-demo::demodemo) and run the border styles test, you'll see that the drawing locations are all screwed up. However, if you run the address book you'll see that it looks OK there, but if you enlarge the address book window so that you can see the whole tool tip and move your mouse around, you'll see that it leaves turds. This doesn't happen with Allegro Clim. I've noticed issues with McCLIM's erasing stuff before. Running Abigail, for example, and running the test function from the menu, it leaves all kinds of cruft on the screen that it doesn't in Allegro. I bring this up just to inform people who might (or might not) want to fix it.

[mcclim-devel] Yet another half-baked half-finished backend
by Christophe Rhodes 10 Jul '07

10 Jul '07

Hi, I'm aware that we're accumulating broken backends faster than we are fixing them, but I'd still like to make a case for including another. Over the course of yesterday, I built enough of a backend based on the WHATWG (HTML 5) group's <canvas> widget that code which is essentially (with-output-to-canvas (s file) (gsharp:draw-buffer s buffer)) produces <http://doc.gold.ac.uk/~mas01cr/tmp/rapsoden-mostly-correct.html> (best viewed with something that's not IE; also, please don't tell me that it tells you about not supporting <canvas> even though it does). I should warn that I'm one Web Coder short of a project; I don't really have a feeling for how to take this backend much further: specifically, missing features that are moderately essential are text (<canvas> doesn't support text; apparently styled <div>s are the way forward) -- which would get the backend about up to Postscript levels of functionality -- and interactivity, which would be utterly cool but clearly won't work currently given that that html file is about 1MB big. So, any ideas? The backend itself is about 400 lines of code; should I just go ahead and check it in, or does anyone have any reservations? Cheers, Christophe

[mcclim-devel] mcclim vs slime
by Christian Lynbech 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

Am I the only one who has problems with the recent inclusion of swank into mcclim? I am not disputing the honorable intentions of adding it but it clashes with my habits of administering mcclim and slime. I update both mcclim and slime pretty frequently and I also regularly dump a core with mcclim to speed up (re)starting, and now troubles starts. When slime (from the emacs side) starts up the inferior lisp, it will set up to load swank which in my case comes straight from a CVS sandbox. But my mcclim enabled image already has a (possibly different) version of swank loaded and apart from a bunch of annoying warnings, the two versions of swank may clash in ways that makes starting fail (if for instance a struct has changed layout). Would it be possible/acceptable to factor out the stuff that needs swank into a separate system such that one could choose between basic-clim or the swank-enhanced-clim depending on what one was looking for? ------------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Christian Lynbech | christian #\@ defun #\. dk ------------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Hit the philistines three times over the head with the Elisp reference manual. - petonic(a)hal.com (Michael A.

[mcclim-devel] Tooltip code
by Fred Gilham 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

Hello, One of my co-workers wrote the following code that we're interested in making available to the McCLIM project, if people developing that project are interested in having it. However, it seems to show up some deficiencies in the McCLIM redrawing code. Or is our code wrong? Anyway please feel free to add this code to McCLIM if wanted and to let me know if there are any wrong assumptions in the code. We do intend to develop it more but for now my concern is that it doesn't work that well with McCLIM. ;;; -*- Mode: Common-Lisp -*- ;;; Use tooltips with CLIM presentations ;;; Copyright (C) 2007 SRI International. ;;; ;;; This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or ;;; modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public ;;; License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either ;;; version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. ;;; This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, ;;; but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of ;;; MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
