List of features to be implemented (not in any particular order)
----------------------------------------------------------------
-
-- de-map space key from button bar
-- lasso selection tool
-- prefs file, save prefs
+- paste text directly into xournal, from xournal?
+ (instead of starting a text item and pasting into/from it)
+- internationalization / translation of interface
+- a command + keyboard shortcut to switch between mappings (1<->2, 1<->3)
+ (A. Rechnitzer Sept 11, 2007)
+- rewrite printing using GtkPrint + Cairo as GnomePrint replacement
+ (keep GnomePrint option for compatibility with GTK+ <2.10)
+- xournal_page-shadow.diff (Martin Kiefel Feb 5 2007)
+- "organizer" side panel (hierarchy of notes), cf. gjots
+- xoj2pdf on command line
+- 'insert blank page after' command (more useful in PDF annot !)
+- load images as bg if given on command-line (as with PDF on commandline)
+- load PDF pages only on demand (create empty pixmaps at first if can
+ parse PDF geometry ourselves, else try pdfinfo ??)
+ (and config option to limit total memory usage for PDF bitmaps)
+ --- switch to poppler lib instead of pdftoppm
+- lasso selection tool (see shoffsta patch)
+ (http://shoffsta.afraid.org/Projects/Xournal/)
- flatten (incl undo/redo...) - enabled only if nlayers>1
- resize selection
-- text tool, font chooser, default font
- color chooser (papercolor, pen color); maybe more default colors
- printing: print-options, save printer settings (throughout a session,
and on disk) (maybe a separate config file .xournal/gnome-print-settings)
- more pen/highlighter shapes (chisel)
- convert to/from Jarnal format; to/from MS Journal format???
- recalibration upon screen resize / compensation for miscalibration
+ (use ConfigureNotify event and XInput? cf "Bugs" tracker 08/2007)
- find a better behavior for vertical space tool across page boundaries ?
-- key mappings (pgup/dn for full page, up/dn for scroll)
-- zoom increments more flexible (1% instead of 5% ?)
+ config options? 1) when there's not enough space at bottom of page:
+ - resize the page
+ - move stuff to next page
+ - move stuff to a new page
+ 2) when moving to another page:
+ - move everything
+ - move only what doesn't fit (??? looks hard)
+ option for vert space tool to also move the background??
+ (PDF: cut-and-crop by running PDF code twice with 2 different clipboxes?)
- copy/paste of an entire page (beware if PDF bg is not compatible!)
+- simple drawing tools: rectangles, ellipses
+- option to save all annotated files within the .xoj
+- non-antialiased version for handhelds
+- customize autogenerated save file names
+- layer dialog box to set visibility status of each layer regardless of
+ which layer is being edited
+- display corruption on scroll down when bottom of window is obscured??
+ (probably a gnomecanvas or X bug -- expose event generated for wrong
+ region, or not processed?)
+- bitmap preview for document icon in desktop environments?
+- autosave at a regular interval in a given location
+- keep only a few pages of a PDF file in memory at any given time; generate
+ pages by parsing pdf info rather than generating bitmaps for all of them.
+- win32 port (Matteo Abrate)
+- snap-to-grid tool? (Matteo Abrate)
+- EPOS 7/24/07: Thumbnails pane
+- EPOS: Connect to EPOS api which sends A4 mapped points
+- EPOS: Cut and Paste into OpenOffice applications and the GIMP (as bitmap??)
+- EPOS: Export pages to pictures in the Jpg and Png formats.
+- EPOS: Rotate Ink in custom angle.
+- handwriting recognition???? (cellwriter?) unlikely. we don't have grids
+- handwritten stroke search in document (see cellwriter?)
+- option: export to PDF with incremental pages for successive layers
+ (for presentations) (Daniel Brugarth 8/18/07)
+- render page to bitmap: for export, preview, and copy-paste
+ (render using libart, see how gnomecanvas does it?)
+ (copy-paste: config option to render only current layer or all below?)
+- cut-and-paste of selection into other apps (as bitmap; as SVG?)
+- ability to select entire page for copy-paste (as bitmap / reorder xournal)
+- Lukasz Kaiser 8/15/07 shapes patch (approximate stroke by geometric shapes)
+ (make it an optional mode of the pen, like the ruler)
+ (rewrite without gsl dependency?)
+ (config file should be loaded from share/... and .xournal/...)
+ (disconnected shapes: add timestamps to strokes?)
+- Samuel Hoffstaetter: lasso, gettext localization, sidebar thumbnails, ...
