A new #Hieroglyphic release is out now. Thanks to the exciting work done by @bnyro,
Hieroglyphic can now also recognize @typst symbols (a modern alternative to
LaTeX). Hardware-acceleration will now be preferred over using the CPU, when
available, reducing power-consumption.
Head over to @flathub to download the latest version: https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.github.finefindus.Hieroglyphic
And slowly we're inching towards a release for the next version of Graphs.
Currently working on documentation. With the next release at least all features and such should be described, making it complete in principle (which was a blocker for 2.0). That's the net 700 new lines coming in.
Later on I intend to add some more explicit how-to's, and maybe explanations on e.g., statistics or mathematics behind certain transformations (e.g., what does the Fourier transform do).
As you may already have learned from the @gnome 50 release notes, Sessions has been accepted into #GnomeCircle ✨
Sessions is a simple visual timer application designed specifically for the pomodoro technique and maintained by @pojntfx.
#Eyedropper 2.2.0 is out now, bringing support for color picking without
having the application open. It also now supports RGB in decimal notation
and improves support for systems without a proper portal setup.
As always, you can download the latest release from Flathub https://flathub.org/en/apps/com.github.finefindus.eyedropper
Thanks to an update of the underlying libraries the next release of #Hieroglyphic will automatically use hardware acceleration (i.e. NPU) when available, improving efficiency.
Error bar functionality in Graphs is basically ready for now. So soon you'll be able to use error bars in graphs, turn them on or off on demand. Style them as you like, and even exporting works as intended.
Coming to a beta branch near you soon (tm) :)
Current progress on error bars in Graphs. Basically everything works quite well now, and you can pick error bars for either axes (or none at all).
Apart from more testing, I mainly want to add options to style them a bit maybe before merging this in (could be a separate MR though). Also maybe a row in the "Edit Item" menu with the option to hide the error bars for the item in question.
More errorbar experiments on Graphs. Definitely getting this in for next release.
Core functionality is working. Just need to implement things on the UI-side of things. E.g. turn errorbars on/off, pick a column to choose errors on import, and adding options in the style editor to customize them.
Toying around with error bars. This is probably a reasonable goal to have in the coming release of Graphs. Likely one of the last things to add before announcing a full release (which is a bit overdue).
Has been plaguing me for a while now, but I could fix the blocker I had last time (the error bars not updating with the data on changes). So now it's just a matter of a clean implementation, and exposing options to style them a bit more reasonably in our style editor.
Now the all new custom math parser has been merged in Graphs, we officially have more lines of #Vala than #Python.
Thanks cmkohnen, the other Graphs-maintainer who has been working on this. Now we no longer depend on regex hackery for parsing equations, which is always a bit brittle. Also comes with a significant performance boost.
