A shorter video this week; though I did manage to do a couple of things including a very useful node selector which involved removing a whole bunch of useless code to allow the select and node tools to use the same selection code. (why did we have two different select code paths?)
I also put in a small cloning feature, pressing C to stamp clones while dragging. This is a bit incomplete though.
A fair bit of time was actually spent reading the PDF 1.7 specification and experimenting with pdf reading and writing. I didn't say this in the video, but the goal is to get much more familar with PDF so we can either write our own, or understand the existing PDF writers in Scribus and other places that support CMYK. Althoguh I have some other PDF cleanups because honeslty our PDF reading (and ai file reading) is terrible at the moment.
Thanks for watching and if you can support my work, it would really help: https://patreon.com/doctormo or contact me if you'd like to contract with me.
