The Road to 1.0

[Josh Marinacci]

I'd like to get Leonardo to a 1.0 release this summer.  Here's the main things on my list. The overall goal is stability for the vector editor, finish up the exporters, and alpha versions of the presentation and bitmap modules.  I really want Leo to be user driven, so please chime in with features / bugs that you want for 1.0.  My goal is to finish it up in time for OSCON at the end of July.

General

Add ID property to all nodes. Unset by default. You can edit in floating props, persist to xml, used by exporters if desired.

Build a set of leo test files to stress test all exports

Separate straight canvas export from Amino canvas export

Vector Mode:

Fix bounds calcs on paths and polygons

add floating palette to path tool so you can switch modes w/o knowing the keyboard shortcuts

Add layer effects for innershadow/glow, outershadow/glow, grow border, and blur.

Presentation mode

Be able to use preso mode to build a full 20 slide deck without huge pain

Improve the default style to use a better font, turn off grid, activate node snapping, center text.

Add bullet points to text box

Bitmap Mode:

Make pencil and brush separate tools in the bitmap mode

Make selection for copy and paste and color fill work in bitmap mode (selection becomes it's own infinite bitmap)

Line tool for aliased and non-aliased lines

Fixed size bitmap zoom so we can do pixel art

save to leoz xml or export to PNG

What else should we get in here?

thanks!
