Author Anyone know the status of these 5 TIPs?
Larry W. Virden

2006-10-30, 7:32 pm

There are 6 TIPs which have passed the voting stage, but which are not
yet marked as final, meaning that some portion of the work of
implementing, writing test cases, doc, etc. or integrating into the
code line hasn't been completed... or perhaps the status hasn't been
updated yet.

Anyone out there familar with these? the two not listed are Tile and
the TEA upgrade, which I'm sure will be completed if at all possible.

tip#119 angled text on a canvas
tip#141 multiple initial-files in tk_getOpenFile
tip#145 enhanced tk font handling
tip#242 preselect filter on tk_get*File dialogs

Given there's only about 5 ws left before the freeze, I was just
wondering whether these items were going to be completed.

Let's see. #119 probably just needs someone to check the code in, #141
had some gnarly issue somewhere (Windows?) so implementor help is
welcome, something odd happened to stall #145 and it needs chasing, and
#242 is probably worth combining with #141 for inquiry - the issue is
probably closely related.

This is all off the top of my head. :-)

If this means that working code is already there,
then this is very good news.

If there are problems with the current implementation,
that might endanger it altogether, I'd still be happy if at least
"90deg ccw" rotated text was possible for labels&buttons.
Actually, this rotation was the only one I personally missed
so far.
