I dont want you to trust me or judge me. I just rise a question and a request to discuss a matter and you go far away from what I ask. If you don't have trust that I am serious please ignore the mail and dont wast our time. The fact that you dont know something it doesnt mean that it is so difficult. In the main time when I am working in separating layout from storytext other person from my team work to integerat harfbuzz with ubidi. These libs will allow for us to have a left to right text and right to left text which basically allow to us have complex text layout in scribus. Maybe this is not an easy task but we work according to a plan and we hope we succeed. </p>
<p dir="ltr">The buges that I was working on I know That I have to comlete it but as I mentioned I was busy and I will come back for it when I have time</p>

Mr Gluc I told you in IRC that I am working with group to sdd support for CTL in scribus and I was looking in bugs only<br>
to understand the nature of scribus code. I will come back for bugs when I have free time but now I have time line I<br>
plain it for finishing this project. Please if you have thoughts or any thing will help share it bur don't question my<br>
abilities or capabilities to solve an issue.<br>

<br>
I have shared thoughts : follow the links and read the comments.<br>
<br>
You have written that you would do things.<br>
<br>
Walk your talk and thou shall be trusted.<br>
<br>
CTL is not a game but a big a project<br>
that will require lot of smart and dedicated work.<br>
IMO, proposed fixes are less than 0.1% of the expected work for CTL.<br>

As you know Mr VOX has start project to make scribus support complex text layout. Therefore I am willing to work<br>
in his<br>
plan that he posted in githup in the following link:<br>
andreas-vox/ScribusCTL/issues/3 <<a href="https://github.com/andreas-vox/ScribusCTL/issues/3" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/andreas-vox/ScribusCTL/issues/3</a>><br>
<br>
<br>
This is big work, not to be entered without experience.<br>
<br>
As for now, have you coded some lines for scribus ?<br>
<br>
You have provided a patch for <a href="http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=11926" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=11926</a><br>
if i understand well, Kunda tested it and found it ok.<br>
Great !<br>
Even greater when one of the devs looks at it and merges patch into core...<br>
<br>
I see you have also worked on <a href="http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=11071" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=11071</a><br>
and 10 days ago you said you would come back with more answers<br>
What is your conclusion ?<br>
<br>
You proposed a patch for <a href="http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=6230" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=6230</a><br>
but it was not finished and required care.<br>
3 weeks ago, you said you would propose a better patch<br>
for <a href="http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=6230" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=6230</a><br>
Can you please provide it ?<br>
<br>
Maybe some of these 2 issues require discussing<br>
and bigger CTL project will for sure also require even biger discussions.<br>
<br>
IMI, it's not safe for you to begin work on CTL,<br>
even if your ideas might look nice,<br>
as long as you have not sorted out these easyhacks,<br>
because foss code is not only ideas,<br>
but also code and discussion, amongst others.<br>

To complete the project, the first stage was to separate textlayout from storytext. So I started to separate all<br>
functions that related to glyphs.<br>
<br>
GlyphLayout* getGlyphs(int pos);<br>
const GlyphLayout* getGlyphs(int pos) const;<br>
LayoutFlags flags(int pos) const;<br>
bool hasFlag(int pos, LayoutFlags flag) const;<br>
void setFlag(int pos, LayoutFlags flag);<br>
void clearFlag(int pos, LayoutFlags flag);<br>
<br>
These functions were in storyText but I am moving<br>
If any one have thought about the process I want a feedback. For example if there are any other function that<br>
related to<br>
layout and I didn’t mention it<br>
<br>
