Action: derek hates how UNITUITIVE gimp is context menu, ummm select and by color I think what is context menu? right click on image actually you should first riht click on image, go to layers, alpha, add alpha channel then r-cluck, select, bycolor... then click on the color you want on the image suck cant add alpha there is probably already an alpha channel then no worries, go to select, by color once you select the background color, you can control-k to transparentize the selection ok there um it wont let me select by color :( it just shows all black er bah it selected but picked wrong color click on the image on the color you want? did opposite fo what needed :) heh night guys chillywilly (danielb@d17.as4.nwbl0.wi.voyager.net) left irc: I wvas able to do it as I described. bingo got to work i hate gimp :) I like it but thank you solved my problem :0 nickr: let me rephrase i like it its much easier than photoshop and has a lot more option when i have someone near by to ask how to do REALLY basic things heh there ar some areas that could be smothed out I'm supised theres not an 'alpha by color' but of course its only one xtra step to do that using selections um can you not have .ico files that are transparent? I don't know exactly how it works. as it wont let me save as .bmp (i imagine because of transparency) i have a nice .xpm file now for icons on unix :) http://goats.gnue.org/~dneighbo/gnue/gnue_logo_icon.png if someone can tell me how to go from .png or .xpm to .ico i will gladly make it http://goats.gnue.org/~dneighbo/gnue/gnue_logo_icon.png oops hrm, it seems that ico files are more annoying than I thought icoconvert hrm imagemagick might be able to do it iconvert only goes from not to can someone see if netpbm exists on debian? it does yummy dood debian kicks ASS carpine:/home/dneighbo# pngtopnm gnue_logo_icon.png | ppmquant 256 |ppmtowinicon -output gnue.ico ppmquant: making histogram... ppmquant: 486 colors found ppmquant: choosing 256 colors... ppmquant: mapping image to new colors... carpine:/home/dneighbo# anyone have a windwos box?

Action: jcater has been thinking for a while that we need a "common" class that all top-level GObj's subclass from i.e., GFForm, GNProcesses, GRReport I'm wondering if we took that route (maybe GRootObj) could the init code always go in there? in GRootObj, that is hmmmm hmmmmm what all would we put in this ? well, not sure if you notice or not, but all the root objects have a slightly different dumpXML method ?? oooo well, the dumpXML methods now need to be passed an xmlElements tree I modified the root objects so they don't have to be passed this tree (as they know what it is), so youre only talking about the GFForm, GDesigner and co but they pass it on to the children not the GFEntry, etc, etc well, not GDesigner but GFForm, GRReport, GNProcesses (the top-most widget) ah the grand-pappy, if you will the master app class basically yes i like this i think StormBringer (~eugene@194.84.60.197) left #gnuenterprise ("Client Exiting").

Hey'all. Has anyone developped an app for Bayonne yet to make it act like a reasonable VxMail system? I'm thinking, if I were to build a inventory system myself, i'd do some perl-scripting on top of a database. would it be easier to build such a system with GNUe, thinking about stupid users punching in all kinds of strange data into it.... it is a fuzzy question, I know... =) forms will filter a bit out when input masks are completed it will do better job of it geas IIRC would have consistancy checks great =) but I don't know the status of that that's typical one of the technical strengths of a business-system... Anyone can build a simple database driven app but long-term it'd be very hairy if the app is not well written... the other thing would be that forms is a consistant interface to data designer will let you build the forms easily and very quickly and reports when further along will let you output reports in a varity of formats and everything will eventually apply to some sort of business logic, I assume that is the plan ToyMan (stuq@c5300-2-ip59.albany.thebiz.net) left irc: "Client Exiting" If I sell one chocolade bar, the inventory module would be triggered and decrement the number of bars in stock... can I buy the chocolate bar from you please? can I have a free reseller sample?

Too, but I ve still some 20 hours internet access left for this month, .... I will use it... :-) ouch my 56k modem sucks but at least it's unlimited I'm free (unmetered) from 6 pm to 8 am and weekends ISDN is great, .... It Still Does Nothing? I Still Don't Need I've been on the waitlist for a cable modem for a year oh... but given that my cable operator looks like going bust I guess I can't complain It is quite common for landslords here in Sweden to build their own networks within their buildings. then have a company pull a E1 and charge for Internet access... he gotta go... bedtime soon I think =) cya!

The parser is expat. chillywilly: i was a bit tired. So it took longer. jan: are you going to attempt to reimplement forms in PHP or just the UI part? I thought of a complete reimplementation wow that's cool but she's a moving target hope that doesn't drive you crazy So we need good documentation. we may be able to work something into existing code so that you could hook into it jan: just out of curiosity, what's the motivation for completely redoing forms in php? btw, that looks great its. faster to it in one language. btw, where our kde/qt ui plugin at fellas ;P Action: chillywilly noticed the KDE window decoration on the login dialog ps file is the techref available in any other format anywhere? forms techref should be in text in the last release the tarball perhaps? in the releases, its in txt ok I the techref up to date? fairly but not perfect we try to verify it before every release however it needs some cleanup Whats about some Test GFD files. in forms/samples lots of them all of them _should_ work currently and user_guide.txt file too? i thought so are there 0.1.1 tar balls? I haven't tried it in the last two weeks, but there were some trigger errors etc. in the files....
