Inkscape

I get this error when I use the filter effect drop-shaddow using the
dx, dy spin-control.

g_ascii_strtod does not convert correctly.

reding src/fixes.cpp it states:
/*
 * until 2004-04-22, g_ascii_strtod could not handle having a locale-based
 * decimal separator immediately following the number ("5,4" would
 * parse to "5,4" instead of "5.0" in fr_FR)
 *
 * This is the corrected function, lifted from 1.107 gstrfuncs.c in glib
 */

So the question is: how to convert strtod locale independent?

For localized numbers, one should use g_strtod or strtod.

For other uses it is operating on user-visible numbers that *are* localized. So that's why it's used at all. As to why there's a problem here, it is most likely either a problem of inappropriate copy-n-paste, or of a single bit of code that doesn't realize it needs to operate on both user-input and SVG abstract strings.

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Unable to convert "14,800000" to number From: the Adib <theadib@go...> - 2009-02-13 22:54 ok. I think it comes somewhere where the parameters are exported from the filter dialog. But I did not found the source and where it reads the number from the spin-button and forward to atod-function. Any hint where I can start?
