DIY Book Scanner

I checked it on Windows and 9pt is not acceptable there - it actually makes it bigger than the text directly above it. This means in order for it to get fixed, someone would have to write a patch that applies different values depending on the platform.

Strange. The text above it is 13 pts.

This is how the dialog appears when I change the font from 7 to 9 pts and recompile for OS X:
There must be a bug somewhere when the Windows version is created. Unfortunately, I have no idea where that might be.

On Windows, text next to checkboxes is 8pt, which is the default value. So no, you can't get away without platform-dependent code.

I just built 1.0.0beta10, and it looks OK to me. A bit on the small side, but I can read it. But jimboh's looks nicer!

Can you please share the binary that you've built from the latest source?

Thanks!

Thanks for the builds, guys.

Which one is the one to grab now, btw? I remember having trouble with the latest build I tried and having to choose an older one some months ago.

Something new coming soon, perhaps?

Will a Mac version be linked to the official page, Tulon?

Here is my build with the snapshot as of Sun, 29 May 2011 08:01:34 +0000. This one includes the patch that fixes the crash when we use the right mouse button to invoke the context menu over a picture zone. (That may not describe it perfectly, but that is what I have been doing when I see the crash.)

I forgot to increase the font size for this one. I will do so for the next one I build, after the next interesting snapshot.

Hey jimboh,

Questions: Does your build link to external libraries, or is it statically linked? Also, is it PPC, Intel or universal? 32-bit or 64-bit? I'm wondering if we can come up with a script that will build a universal, statically linked binary that will work no matter what on anyone's OSX box...

rob, I cannot answer any of your questions because I am not a programmer. I simply follow the instructions for building on OS X with Xcode and MacPorts at http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/s ... d_Mac_OS_X

I don't know if this is relevant, but I have the following in my environment.plist:

-DCMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib
-DCMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/local/include
-DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE=/opt/local/libexec/qt4-mac-devel/bin/qmake

With those settings, this is all I do:

cmake .
make
sudo make install

If it works for others, it works; if not, oh well.

Thanks for this.

Forgive this stupid question: Is this not a build of the actual program?

I get a Terminal message when I open this saying:

"dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/libexec/qt4-mac-devel/lib/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/QtGui
