History

#1 Updated by Philippe May almost 2 years ago

  • Assignee changed from Philippe May to Selvarani C

This file is incredibly big! The original gisafSymbols.bf is less than 200kB, 30 times smaller than this one, only for around 100 more glyphs.

I could open few glyphs (characters) in Birdfont and noticed that there are a lot of useless points defining the paths (Bezier curves). Generally, we try to draw the shapes with the least possible points.

I fear that it might impact greatly the performance of Gisaf - we can try though, but the ideal would be to simplify those path.

Meanwhile, i cannot convert the file to .ttf, which is the first step. The software just hangs. Can you please try, using the export function?

#2 Updated by Selvarani C almost 2 years ago

Hi Philippe,

Here below i have attached the .ttf of the same file, Please find it.

#3 Updated by Philippe May almost 2 years ago

Thanks. As i feared, the .ttf file is very big, 30 times bigger than the original. This will definitely impact the performance of Gisaf (loading time, rendering time...) Acceptable or not, we'll see.

#4 Updated by Philippe May over 1 year ago

OK, after quite a lot of work in-between (various major updates) i could generate the font files for the map and... they are almost the same size than previously bowtie! So i'm optimistic now that this new font won't create any issue with the rendering.

But there will be quite a lot of work adjusting all the layers with the new character codes. Some you can do (the survey/ISO layers), others i'll have to do (the "Misc" ones).

I hope i can put the new version online tomorrow. We're almost there, thanks for your patience.

#5 Updated by Selvarani C over 1 year ago

Hi Philippe,

Here below i have attached the updated bird font file, ttf file and doc file with default symbols.
Please find it. Thanks.

#6 Updated by Philippe May over 1 year ago

Thanks. For reference, the default characters (please avoid attaching files when a simple copy/paste is possible):

Point Default Code - U+e32b (0xe32b)
Line Default Code - U+e32c (0xe32c)
Polygon Default Code - U+e32d (0xe32d)
Well Default Code - U+e32e (0xe32e)

Note that i'm currently working on the server, updates etc, so it Gisaf might not be available.

I installed the new font, and reset the symbols for the layers in the "Misc" section.

#9 Updated by Giulio Di Anastasio over 1 year ago

Thanks, the defaults for the Misc are now ok, with the exceptions of

AVES HT Equipment - U+e367 (0xe367)
AVES LT Equipment - U+e368 (0xe368)
Weather Station - U+e36d (0xe36d)

The Survey Major groups are still messed up, perhaps you can refer to the list I posted some days ago...
