This is finally implemented in 4.1.18. Paths that are chopped retain the same attributes as the original, i.e. layer, width, style, extents.

If the original path had net attributes, then the chopped path(s) that result have the same net attributes.

Seems to work OK for me. Its looking for something like this:

;********************************
; LAYER RULES
;********************************
layerRules(

streamLayers(
;( layer streamNumber dataType translate )
;(

---

---

---

---

)
( ("ref" "drawing") 0 0 t )
( ("DNW" "drawing") 1 0 t )
) ;streamLayers

) ;layerRules

The stream layer parsing starts when it finds the string 'streamLayers(' (note no space before the left bracket). Then each line with a '((' (whitespace permitted between brackets) is treated as a layer/purpose pair. The line is split into tokens according to whitespace, and any residual brackets and apostrophes are removed. If the 'translate' token is 't' then the gds layer/datatype attributes are set on the laper/purpose pair, else they are silently ignored.

BTW I modified the allowed attachements to include file extensions of .log, .tf. If you find you can't upload an attachment, best bet is to zip it as .zip files are allowed.

Should say 4.1.17. Perhaps some caching of web pages is going on?

Edit: Doh! The linux builds did not have the version number automatically incremented. This is fixed. However, the build you had was updated in all other respects.

[Keith]

Hi, it doesn't look like the attachment worked. How big is the file – can you email it? Send to support@peardrop.co.uk, thanks.

Edit: I have changed the limit for attachment file sizes – it was 200Kb only before.

For the python26.dll, try looking in C:windowssystem32 (or the equivalent for 64 bit windows).

[Keith]

OK I may need some help to get this thing linked – Glade needs the ActiveState python library for the linker. However, the 64 bit version uses the 64 bit Windows Installer, which of course won't run on a 32 bit machine…

If you can download the 64 bit version of python (which you will want anyhow), unpack it and send me the following files (zipped):

python26.lib
python26.dll

then I should be able to build the 64 bit executable.

[Keith]

After a few false starts the Qt library is building using the VC2008 cross compiler… so it looks possible.

[Keith]

I will take a look. It will require building a 64 bit version of Qt, as Trolltech don't ship a prebuilt 64 bit version as far as I'm aware.

[Keith]

In theory this should be possible as VC++ supports cross-compilation to x64. I don't have a 64 bit windows platform to test on, though.

[Keith]

The Windows version is currently supported on 32 bit, not 64. Sorry.

[Keith]

In case people were wondering, the forum has had a few problems of late due to an attack of malware which compromised many html and php files.

This has all been fixed and cleaned up now. Apologies for any inconvenience.

[Keith]

Agreed but RHEL3 is pretty old now. Have you considered using e.g. vmware?

[Keith]

It seems to work fine for me, at least on version 4.1.16.

[Keith]

I'm not sure of any obvious workaround. I'd suggest updating your linux installation. Glade is compiled and tested on CentOS 4.7.

[Keith]

Can you give me some idea of the code you are using then? As all update() does is to update the cellview's bbox, calls optimiseTrees() then marks the cellview as edited.

[Keith]

I presume you are creating the shapes here in Python? In which case after all shapes have been created, call cv.update()

You should not need to call optimiseTrees() as update() does this anyhow.
