minute (mntmn@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 01:46:05 JST minute @whitequark maybe you were right, already getting and endless recursion (well, sigsegv is the end) just creating a new file

minute (mntmn@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 01:57:23 JST minute @whitequark highly suspicious
-
minute (mntmn@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 01:59:24 JST minute @whitequark returning early in this constructor at least makes it not crash anymore lol

minute (mntmn@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 02:03:17 JST minute @whitequark when ungrouping something from kicad it spends like at least a minute with 1 core in 100% in gtk_tree_store_iter_n_children

minute (mntmn@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 02:07:54 JST minute @whitequark not a minute. forever

minute (mntmn@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 02:12:48 JST minute @flowb creative, but in this case, no thanks
-
florian (flowb@mastodon.sdf.org)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 02:12:49 JST florian @mntmn this might be totally off, but a rather wide workaround might be to load the svg into blender, isolate what you need, then rendering to freestyle and exporting a new svg.

minute (mntmn@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 02:13:23 JST minute @whitequark returning early in ObjectWatcher::moveChild() "fixes" this... now inkscape is kind of usable
-
minute (mntmn@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 02:15:32 JST minute also funny, kicad exportgs a bunch of objects _twice_ to the svg (they're exactly on top of each other). but only some. who knows why
-
minute (mntmn@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 02:20:17 JST minute @slow same object
-
slow (slow@mstdn.io)'s status on Wednesday, 29-May-2024 02:20:18 JST slow @mntmn is it the _same_ object, or does kicad just happen to have both of those objects in the source material? (happened to me often enough when editing schematic symbols to find the same text multiple times at the same location)
