1. Ease 0.1
Ease 0.1 will be the initial release of Ease.
1.1. Features
These features are proposed for Ease 0.1.
Feature |
Progress |
Creating / Opening / Saving. |
Documents can be created, opened, edited, and saved. However, they are not currently linked to themes after being saved and closed, as they should be. |
Exporting to PDF. |
PDF exporting is partially functional, but text layout is inaccurate compared to the Clutter representation, and no thumbnails are displayed for videos. |
Exporting to HTML5. |
The HTML5 exporter is quite good at the moment, fully supporting text, image, and video. However, all testing has been done in WebKit based browsers - tests should be done in Firefox, Opera, and IE6-9. Good IE6 support will be considered a lovely surprise. |
Adding text (choosing font and size). |
Text editing is functional, but font size and color do not currently work. There is no interface to add text. |
Adding images. |
Images are supported, but there is no interface to add them. Progress has been made on plugins to search images from external websites (Flickr and OpenClipArt, at the moment). |
Resizing and moving for the two above. |
Fully working for normal resize and move, as well as mirrored resize with Ctrl. Proportional resize with shift is still buggy. |
Basic set of transitions. |
Complete. A few transitions are buggy, but are unneeded and can be disabled for the release if necessary. |
Playback. |
Currently in a fairly releasable state. |
Documentation. |
The goal for Ease is 100% Valadoc coverage, this is fairly close to being met, with most of the missing documentation being for fairly "obvious" constants or members. Regardless, these should be documented. |
Website. |
Ease needs a website, beyond a live.gnome.org page. Of course, this is not a feature of Ease, but something should be ready for the initial release. |
1.2. Bugs
Bugs for Ease can be reported on the Ease Bugzilla.
Major problems that 'must' be corrected for 0.1:
- Segmentation fault when saving on Ubuntu 10.04 (does not occur on Fedora 13)
