(Or control on windows, I don't know. One of the modifier keys.) Alt-b. It should pop up when you hover over the button. I use it *all* the time.

I haven't had any time to spend on programming lately: work and personal life are crazy busy, and I've been trying to translate some stuff lately, so I haven't been able to look at all these great bug reports. I do want to get at it though.

Alright.

Just curious. Why do you have it store the page dimensions? If the page size changes, the values become wrong, for example if you use web raws for tsling and then later get scanned ones before the release of a chapter.

Also, I've been exporting some stuff and a page called missing.jpg keeps showing up. What's the reason for it?

I store the page dimensions because I used to do some scaling that would let you zoom in / zoom out. It was a crappy way to do it though, a better way is to apply a scaling transform to the Graphics object, and not mess with translating the coordinates for the points.

If you translate on scans that are not what you want to output with you are in trouble anyway, since the bubbles won't line up. I had some code in there at one point that would let you uniformly scale the X/Y coordinates for just that purpose, but it never worked very well, and in the end I think it is best to just translate with a nice quality source that you can use to output with.

Otherwise, you might as well just type in your translation and hand it off to other people to edit in real graphics software like the Gimp... Smile

Well, it's not really a problem to move em/resize em. Sides, sometimes cleaning is just a pain in the ass and you don't want to do it. Right now I have a tsler translating from web scans, and the scanners gonna get to scanning that vol later. Then I'll just switch out the pages/combine doubles. Productivity train or something like that Razz

ah, sounds nice when you've got help. I used to get some great support from Ki Shodar back when I was doing scans and putting those out. Now I'm just doing text translations mostly, so it isn't a big deal. Smile

Well, it's a joint, otherwise I usually do everything.

I've been exporting some stuff and a page called missing.jpg keeps showing up. Just wondering what it is.

missing.jpg pops up when the page numbers are not sequential. GMAO kind of idiotically just increments each page by one to export a range.

Oh, that's cause I had some doubles in there, v03_012-013.jpg kind of thing. To the list!

Hey, would implementing anti-aliasing on text be doable?

Hmm, I guess cause someone said the fonts on my stuff looked aliased, but now that I look at it, it doesn't so never mind that.
