Re: [Sodipodi-list] Sodipodi & Cinelerra integration

[Lauris K. <la...@ka...>]

Hello!

Thank you, this sounds really interesting!
I think, I can add this to sodipodi main, but I'd prefer to
refactor namespacing a bit ;-)
But on the other hand - having --cinerella-export-file does not
hurt either... We can reserve more generic names for better
refactored functionality.

Have you more clear ideas, which UI functions should be modified
and/or restricted while working as plugin?

Also, if you are interested in developing dynamic SVG layer
using sodipodi code, I can probably help you. It is not very
different from current SVG viewer, except instead of custom Gtk+
widget, we attach NRArena to non-ui GObject, and let it render
RGBA buffers for overlay.

Best wishes,
Lauris Kaplinski
