I'm a web designer, and a key part of my job is to edit and make images and designs
On windows, I'm used to Fireworks, and illustrator.
Whats the equivalent in ubuntu?
Windows stinks, macs are overpriced, and linux rocks. taht's why im trying to design on linux :-
Also, do you think drawing pads will work on ubuntu?
So have you ever tried a drawing pad for GIMP before?
Do the drivers work?
What image/illustrator editor do you prefer?
I'm on F12 and looking for a CAD program that would allow me to design simple 2 dimensional scale drawings, that I can hand over to somebody else to follow my plans and make something from the plan. Can anyone recommend a suitable package that would allow me to do that?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is a good program for drawing charts of fx programs. Flow charts, Gannt charts and such.I'm sure I can get openoffice to do it, but somehow I'm not comfortable with drawing anything in that program. I don't really know why. There is a nice program for it in the OpenSuse 11.2 with gnome, but I run KDE4. Is there a good recommendable program for this under KDE4?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running 9.04 jaunty. I made a file in gimp and saved it as .xcf. I want it to be a pdf file, so I try opening it with open office drawing, but it keeps opening it with the word processor instead. The word processor starts the file if I do a right-click 'open with' on the file on my desktop, and even if I use open from the file menu in drawing itself. I'm wondering what to do to get drawing to open this file. Is it that .xcf is not supported by drawing?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI had a dual monitor setup going for a while, then one monitor broke, and I dropped back down to one. In some ways, the computer seems to have noticed this. I have an NVIDIA card and the NVIDIA drivers, and in NVIDIA X Server Settings it shows only one display. I had it configured in the Xinerama fashion, two continuous desktops side by side.
However, my desktop is still drawn as though there are two monitors, the result being that I can only see half. This is easily apparent when I zoom out to the desktop cube. It wouldn't be much of a serious problem, except for some reason, several important applications I use for work are popping up messages on the part of the desktop that I can't access. I installed the latest NVIDIA drivers,driver reset might prompt whatever the problem is to go away (and it's good to do that regularly anyways) but no dice.
I am looking to draw a curve for a given set of coordinates using java. For example;
(1,2)
(2,4)
(3,6)
I am aware that a straight line graph can be drawn for a given coordinates using Jfree, but I am not sure about drawing the curve. Any hints on what might be a good java class to use.
I would like an easy way to draw a polygon from a load of xyz points that should be on its surface. Can someone help? Ideally using java 3D but I could use something else. Quick and dirty is fine its just to see a shape. I haven't really done any 3D graphics programming.

something like IME pad for windows would be perfect. I looked at Anthy and the romanji to kanji works fairly well but it is lacking a direct mouse input method.

How is this possible to make it work in openSUSE?
Today I assembled a machine and installed Ubuntu 8.4...I think. When I opened Open office, more specifically the drawing section, the toolbars were full of a script font and I am not sure of how to change it to something I can read.
View 4 Replies View RelatedOn my terminal only system ( no Xorg or guis ) I have a font rendering issue. In place of some symbols ( eg double-lines and some other miscellaneous line-drawing shapes) are generic diamonds. Attached is a fbgrab ( png format ) of elinks showing the problem. I have now configured elinks to only use single lines drawing characters ( which work fine ) for now as a work around. Here is my /etc/default/console-setup
Code:
# Change to "yes" and setupcon will explain what is being doing
VERBOSE_OUTPUT="no"
# Setup these consoles. Most people do not need to change this.
ACTIVE_CONSOLES="/dev/tty[1-6]"

The numbers in the FONTFACE show the size of the font matrix. For example Lat2-Terminus20x10.psf is a font for codeset Lat2 with size of the font matrix 10x20 (i.e. 10 columns and 20 rows). If the number of columns is 8 then only the number of rows is specified. For example the font matrix of Armenian-Fixed15.psf has size 8x15.
In text video mode or if you use the RadeonFB kernel module only fonts whose font matrix has 8 columns can be used (that is the size should be a simple NUMBER rather than a NUMBERxNUMBER combination). The other fonts can be used only with framebuffer video modes and with the package 'kbd'. The console package 'console-tools' can not be used
with such fonts.
THE TERMINUS FONT:
The aim of the Terminus font is to reduce the eyes-fatigue when one has to read a lot. Currently this font supports only the Latin, the Cyrillic and the Greek scripts (the Lat15, Lat2, Lat7, CyrAsia, CyrKoi, CyrSlav, Greek, Uni2 and Uni3 codesets). The fonts with font face TerminusBold and size 14 or 16 are optimized for 8 pixels width glyph matrix (in most cases this means framebuffer). The fonts with font face TerminusBoldVGA and size 14 or 16 are optimized for 9 pixels width glyph matrix and can not be used with
framebuffer video modes.
The fonts with font face Terminus and size 14 or 16 can be used both with 8 and 9 pixels width glyph matrix. In the regular text video modes the width of the glyph matrix is 9
pixels. If you use the package svgatextmode then the width is 8 or 9 pixels and you probably know it. The Terminus font in this version of console-setup is version 4.26.
I upgraded in Ubuntu from 2.6.28-13 to 2.6.30 and now I get no line-drawing characters in applications like alsamixer; instead they are replaced by 127-bit chars like 'lqqk'. As a coder, I'd really like to understand what happened - what changed (file in /etc?) affecting terminal capabilities, and what does the kernel have to do with it .
PS: the distro is Jaunty and I used the debs at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-mainline/:
Code:
linux-headers-2.6.30-020630_2.6.30-020630_all.deb
linux-headers-2.6.30-020630-generic_2.6.30-020630_i386.deb

I am facing problems to restart PADS(Passive asset detection system) from java program.I used the root as a user. So from the command prompt I can start PADS with out sudo ,but when I try to start PADS from the my java program i.e.
Process proc=Runtime.getRuntime().exec("pads restart");
It throws the error in log that FATAL error ! you not root and permission denied.
Then I tried the same with sudo
Process proc=Runtime.getRuntime().exec("sudo pads restart";
Here it create another two process extra
1 for stop the pads
2) for start the pads
It does not kill the previous process of PADS .and both the process get hung.
I'm having trouble with my java, I got it to isntall, restarted but when I go to any java based chat, or drawing site it doesn't load the applet, the applet shows up it just says "Start: Applet not initialized"
Did I install it wrong?
I have a lot of RAR files and ISO. Is there a program like Winrar which could open them in Linux? Cause now it only opens zip files . Also I would like to know what the best package manager is (I mean the easiest -used to use the Software Manager in Mint 9 Xfce).At last I would like to know if there is a good program to make disk images to reset the system.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've discovered BasKet, and love it. However, I don't use KDE, and installing it on something else (CrunchBang in my case, which is Ubuntu-based) can mean a huge number of dependencies. (e.g. 28 MB just for kde-icons-oxygen, an icon theme). I don't know if most of them are actually needed though - relatively few "k..." programs are actually showing in the task manager when I run basket: kded, kdeinit, kio_file, klauncher, and knotify.
