Typeface.js - embedded HTML fonts sans Flash

by Rob

It's always struck me that font embedding is a huge omission from the web standards toolkit. If you're not satisfied with Georgia and Verdana, you usually need to turn to images or Flash to get the typeface you want. Tools like sIFR have made this a lot more functional, allowing you to write standard HTML and have Flash dynamically replace content in the page, but using Flash just to display HTML text seems a little unsavory. Typeface.js changes all this, providing a standards-compliant way t

SVG Wireframe For Your Website Design

So Long and Thanks for the Blit!

by Rob

There have been a number of requests to be able to replace the rendering engine used for widgets and pixmaps to be either OpenGL or the Raster backends as these have much better support for more advanced graphics features, such as gradients, blending and transformations compared to, specially, the X11 painting backend. There existed some previous tricks to swap these things around. For instance, it was common to do “setViewport(new QGLWidget())” on a graphicsview it if ran slow. Similarly, on
