Page moved to the wiki: Releases/0.61.03

This time I have confirmed that this version will build with GCC 4 on Debian. I can only assume that if there are issues on other distributions or platforms, that it is not related to GCC 4. Other than that, there isn't too much new in this build. I figured I was sitting on the GCC 4 fix in subversion long enough. Grab it from the download page. Win32 and MacOSX binaries are also available.

    Hi, Why you not put the binary ones that it compiled in the Debian? The way most easy of you make this is using ¨checkinstall¨. Thanks and Good job!

    When building on FC4 (well... at least it started as FC4, it is more like Frankenstein's monster now) with gcc 4.0.2 I get:

    dockdialog.cpp: In constructor ‘studio::DockDialog::DockDialog()’: dockdialog.cp​p:131: error: call of overloaded ‘memfun(studio::DockDialog&, )’ is ambiguous /usr/include/sigc++-2.0/sigc++/functors/memfun.h:5452: note: candidates are: sigc::boundmemfunctor0 sigc::memfun(Tobj&, Treturn (Tobj2::)()) [with T_return = void, T_obj = studio::DockDialog, T_obj2 = Gtk::Window] /usr/include/sigc++-2.0/sigc++/functors/mem_fun.h:5476: note: sigc::bound_mem_functor1 sigc::mem_fun(T_obj&, T_return (T_obj2::)(Targ1)) [with Targ1 = guint32, Treturn = void, Tobj = studio::DockDialog, T_obj2 = Gtk::Window] make[3]: * [synfigstudio-dockdialog.o] Error 1

    Haven't touch ++ in 6 years, but still trying to figure out what's happening there. It seems that template doesn't know which variant of itself to expand, must be a different version of gtkmm ?

    $ rpm -q gtkmm24-devel gtkmm24-devel-2.8.1-1.1.fc4.nr

    (NB: this version number looks really really weird to me)

    synfig compiles for me on archlinux 0.7.1 (gcc 4.0.3 20051006 (prerelease), gtkmm 2.8.1). But I had to make one change in synfig to include /usr/include/OpenEXR:

    sed -i ‘s|@WITHOPENEXRTRUE@libmodopenexrlaCXXFLAGS.*|@​WITHOPENEXRTRUE@libmodopenexrlaCXXFLAGS = @SYNFIGCFLAGS@ -I/usr/include/OpenEXR|g’ src/modules/modopenexr/Makefile.in

    (probably it should be @OPENEXR_CFLAGS@ instead of -I/usr/include/OpenEXR)

    For synfigstudio, I have got the same error as artm in dockdialog.cpp:131, canvasview.cpp:1251, canvasview.cpp:1282, canvasview.cpp:1220, canvasview.cpp:1211 and toolbox.cpp:380.

    I have just comented out those lines and it at least compiles fine (but you can't run it).

    sorry, my bad, i should have filed normal bug (or actually find out that somebody already did!). I've posted the patch to fix my problem on sourceforge patch tracker + description on bug tracker.

    Well, fellas, the app seems to be really cool. I am waiting impatiently for testing builds. And one more thing I wait even more is rendering as SWF. That feature would be a really cool one.

    Hello,

    I didn't have much time to test the programm, but it looks good to me. I'm missing a good animation programm since switching from Amiga (DeluxPaint was great) to Linux. I've added synfig rpm-packages for SUSE Linux 10.0 at the packman page: http://packman.links2linux.de/?action=760 http://packman.links2linux.de/?action=761

    PS: you should remove or updated the included spec files it's allways the etl version and it's broaken for etl and completely unuseable for synfig and synfigstudio.

    I have tried out your new program on Suse 10 - it installs easily with the packages provided by Packman - thanks. From the stills it looks like it would make a great drawing program in terms of quality results. The drawback is that the interface although probably optimized for someone's design habits is not intuitive at all. I figured out how to draw, but could not get the bucket to fill in the area that I drew and I couldn't get the gradient to fill in the area either. One of things I would suggest is to make the menus fixed at the top of the canvas window like Gimp 2.x as oppossed to right clicking for the menus as was the way in Gimp 1.x. There are so many options that I don't understand how to use, but if the guide could explain in simple terms how to create shapes and fill them with gradients or solid fills, that would make it much easier. And I have used a number of vector illustration programs like Expression, Toon Boom Studio, RealDraw, and Inkscape to name a few. Maybe you could pattern your interface like Toon Boom Studio for the general layout as with Ktoons - if you make the layout like the Toon Boom/Ktoons layout but with your quality graphics, you'd have a killer application. I also had trouble detaching the properties windows.

    The mailing lists would be the best place for such discussions.

    Hello, I am running ubuntu breezy final and cannot get synfig to install with deb files too many contradictory dependency errors. anyway, there is another application named MoHo. It works fine and I believe the company has just made it a free application

    I was just wondering - this may not be the appropriate place, but I can't seem to get ./configure to work. It tells me I need to install ETL, but I have installed it. I don't know enough about configure files - anyone know what I might be able to do to get it to recognize ETL? Thanks for any help...

    A quick look at the Moho's website shows that it is NOT free.
