Skencil drawing application
Continuation of the Skencil project: http://www.skencil.org
To compile, run python2 setup.py build
and then start directly
from the build/
directory.
Packages needed for Ubuntu 20.04:
apt install python2 python2-dev python-tk python-pil python-pil.imagetk \
tcl-dev tk-dev python-gi
To get proper color scheme also:
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pygtk/python-gtk2_2.24.0-5.1ubuntu2_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install ./python-gtk2_2.24.0-5.1ubuntu2_amd64.deb
This work is heavily based on skencil-1.0alpha by Igor E. Novikov.
- Arrows which don't extend beyond path ends
- Saving inlined images in PNG format (much smaller file size)
- Option to scale line width when transforming the object
- Automatic reloading of linked images
- Move selection with keyboard keys, like in many other drawing programs
- PDF export which works
- Buttons for 90 degree rotation of the selection
- Draw text as curves if X11 font is not found
- Scroll canvas by dragging the middle mouse button and zoom in/out with the wheel
- Feedback for saving and exporting
- New types of plugin parameters
And many bug fixes.
