Version: 1.6.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Ubuntu RPMs Right now it is possible to organize the different drawing objects into groups and layers, which make the whole drawing process a whole lot easier. One thing that I enjoyed having was the possibility to toggle the visibility of individual groups and layers. That feature has the potential to speed up the drawing process, specially when drawing lots of diagrams which differ only in small variations. For example, right now I'm trying to use karbon14 to draw a series of diagrams depicting various stages of the traffic flow through a few crossings when managed by traffic lights. So to make my job easier I just grouped the crossing diagram on a layer, the traffic flow arrows on another and the labels on a third layer. Now I can generate all the diagrams I need (the crossing presentation including track legends, various traffic flow phases, saturation points, etc...) by toggling the visibility of those layers. Well, that works in karbon14. The problem is that to be able to include them in my report which I'm writing in LaTeX, I need to export those diagrams to the enhanced postscript format and karbon14's export functionality renders every drawing object, whether they are marked as visible or not. So, although the karbon14 file is neatly organized, thanks to the exporter's behaviour, I still need to draw the individual diagrams. So it would be nice if the exporter feature could only export the visible drawing objects. That would be a heck of a feature and would speed up the drawing process in those cases similar to mine.

Yes that seem like a nice feature to me. Problem is koffice 1.6.1 is about to be released in the next days. So that feature will only get into 1.6.2 if there is any.

SVN commit 616263 by jaham: Make it optional to export hidden layers to eps. This works only with layers as the hidden/visible state of objects is not preserved when saving and i do not feel like changing karbons default file format in the stable series. Introduced a new visitor which calculates bounding boxes configurable to use hidden objects or not. Add missing initialisation of member variable in VSelectObjects visitor which fixes selection of all objects. Merry Christmas!
