Review request for Viewer.


Summary
---

Current code composites RGBA PNG images that contain a bKGD chunk down to RGB, 
discarding the alpha channel. This patch removes that code, since it 
contradicts purpose of the bKGD chunk as described in the PNG spec and as 
commonly used.


This addresses bug VWR-24420.

Testing
---

Tested uploading the 2 images attached to VWR-24420 with and without the patch. 
Before patch, "bad alpha.png" was uploaded as RGB, after patch, both images 
were uploaded as RGBA.


Thanks,

Thickbrick

Can someone give a cheap estimate of how hard this will be to fix?

if it is easy to fix, I agree that it should be done soon.

Is there a cost/benefit analysis done when Sprints are prioritized?

 i would say that a full audit of the hover text submodule would be in
order (say 4 hours of junior grade programmer??)

I'd say a udo of the changes since 2.1 is in order, it seems to be a 
regression...

[opensource-dev] Why no single axis resize on linked prims??

2011-01-09 Thread Robert Martin
Does anybody know of a good reason why when you are resizing a set of
linked prims you do not have the single axis resize??
(also could we get a way to resize a linkset with 0.001 meters as a
floor not as a locking measurement?)

I'm not sure it is a separate problem, or related, but I've been able
to see people's voice dots for extreme distances (whenever they are
>1px,) through any number of intervening prims.  Even if the nametag
is obscured, the voice dot comes through.  Has given me quite the
advantage in "hide-and-seek" style gameplay.

Not sure when I first noticed this, and I haven't started any digging...

As I understand it, there's no way to do it without breaking a lot of content.  
Vehicle wheels that are no longer round (or that fit into a wheel well), skirt 
pieces that when stretched in certain directions are no longer facing the right 
directions, etc.

Re: [opensource-dev] Why no single axis resize on linked prims??

2011-01-09 Thread Erin Mallory

As for the why, probably because it would be both hard to resize in only one 
direction or two directions without majorly distorting the linkset, and the 
number of usecases where it would be useful to only resize a linkset in one or 
two directions after finishing a build is probably fairly low. 

as for the second question, the .001 is already a floor.  once a prim reaches 
that dimension the set cannot go further because at this time we don't have 
prim sizes any smaller without scripts.  to change that would, I would be 
considerable effort for very little gain.   Furthermore it doesn't "lock" an 
item it simply limits how much further it resizes down.

Personally, rather then worry about this and the hovertext both of which are 
legacy behaviors, i'd far rather see the major snowstorm developers work on 
issues that affect usability and accessibility for much larger parts of the sl 
population, as well as much more destructive bugs.

For example, I'd much rather see things like storm-526 addressed, or snow-423, 
or cts-337, or better appearance editors, or any of a whole list of bigger 
issues.

You can't see the private favorites before login, so you shouldn't expect to 
see the "favorite landmarks" setting during login. You can only see it after 
login. This is because you don't have a private prefs available until after 
login.

Re: [opensource-dev] Why no single axis resize on linked prims??

2011-01-09 Thread Aleric Inglewood
And now for the real answer...

You can't resize a prim  along an arbitrary axis, so if any linked
prim is rotated, it's simply not possible (in 99.9% of the cases).
You might be able to pull it of for many special cases by changing
sheer values, and use rotation (and texture rotation to correct for
that) etc,
 but even then it only works in so many cases, never along any
arbitrary axis for any arbirary prim shape.
