Could you please advise where the locales folder is to translate this plugin into hu (Hungarian - magyar) locale? Thank you

Hi, John. Thanks for developing this plugin to integrate Etherdraw with Etherpad.

I tried to install it from the console, but I get this error:

etherpad@conference:~/etherpad-lite$ npm install ep_draw
/opt/etherpad/etherpad-lite
└── [email protected] 
 
npm WARN enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/opt/etherpad/etherpad-lite/package.json'
npm WARN etherpad-lite No description
npm WARN etherpad-lite No repository field.
npm WARN etherpad-lite No README data
npm WARN etherpad-lite No license field.

Do you know what the problem might be?

I'm using Etherpad 1.6.1.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Daniel

The server at draw.etherpad.org isn't happy - currently I get a 503.

Can someone fix this?

The implementation now is more like a paint tool, it would be fantastic if it supported simple thin lines, boxes, text, etc. thanks!

when ep_draw is installed, etherpad-lite startup hangs here:

the draw host is set, running, and accessible.

When the vertical scrollbar become active on the page, the framework doesn't move and so is a bit hidden behind the bar.

Instead of opening the small preview, and animating to fullscreen on click on the pen/ double click on the icon, it would be great to just open it in full on a single click on the icon.

I already added the options, but I sadly couldn't test it out. Maybe someone can help me out

It would be helpful if a variable could be used (or if the default could be changed) so that the "toggle transparent background" option is set to non-transparent by default.

The issue is that, with the background transparent, users think that they are drawing on the pad and that all users can see their drawings as they appear on the pad itself. By making the default opaque, the transparent ability would be retained, while making it clear that drawings are separate from and unconnected to the pad text.

The package repository location points to an invalid GitHub page.

"repository": {
"type": "git",
"url": "https://github.com/johnyma22/ep_draw"
},

Should point to:
https://github.com/JohnMcLear/ep_draw/

Semver is probably a good choice, it's popular and works with everything.

We should outline some goals for the next release - what version # will it be? what should we add? etc., etc.

Personally, I think it should be a bit more speedy and also eliminate the scrollbar issue.

did i miss something for prozy settings?
I only install ep?_draw plugin in my etherpad and added below in setting.jason

/* EP draw configurations */
"ep_draw": {
"host": "localhost:9001",
"onByDefault": true
},

No matter what is set in settings.json, Etherdraw always binds to all interfaces (*). Localhost or 127.0.0.1 makes no difference.

{
  //IP and port which etherpad should bind at
  "ip" : "localhost",
  "port" : 9002,

  ...

}

# lsof -i | grep :9002
node      11085         etherpad   10u  IPv6 155125050      0t0  TCP *:9002 (LISTEN)

This is an security issue.

Because the draw window opens with a transparent background, users believe that, if they circle or mark text that is on the pad, all users see that circle or mark in the same place--over the same words on the pad itself. Since they don't, this leads to confusion.

Could there be a way to connect a mark on the drawing to a specific passage of text, while accounting for all screen sizes? I suspect that this would be impossible, but I wanted to raise the issue nonetheless.

I installed etherpad on my centos 6.3, works well.

I installed ep_draw plugin, but I get this showing on my pad:
502 Bad Gateway
nginx/1.2.6 (Ubuntu)

I guess I need to install the correct package, but I don't know which one.
Or should I tweak the server setting ?

I can log in (ssh) but I don't have root privilege on the server.
etherpad version: c9b80c6 (HEAD, origin/develop, origin/HEAD, develop) *
centos version: 6.3

Hey,

it would be great to have an option to export the drawing.
I already have working code to export it as an .svg file, all that would be needed is an extra button.

function download(filename, text) {
    var element = document.createElement('a');
    element.setAttribute('href', 'data:text/plain;charset=utf-8,' + encodeURIComponent(text));
    element.setAttribute('download', filename);

    element.style.display = 'none';
    document.body.appendChild(element);

    element.click();

    document.body.removeChild(element);
}

canvas = document.getElementById('canvas'); 

var styleNode = document.createElement("style");
styleNode.innerHTML = "path { 
    fill: none;
    stroke-linecap: round;
    stroke-linejoin: round;
} ";
canvas.appendChild(styleNode);

Then you can download the file with

download("file.svg", canvas.outerHTML)

The drawing part works well, but it's not shared.
I mean if I draw something, the other users don't see my drawing and vice-versa.

I see nothing in the logs.

Etherpad v1.2.9

The function to move the whiteboard content around is not working on touch screens. Tested on Android (9) and iOS (13.6)

Should collaboration with WBO - Collaborative whiteboard be looked at?

Thank you

The first one is "Make the AuthorName, padID and Authorcolor passed to draw.etherpad.org". We can cross off authorcolor, but what did you want to do with author name and padID? I guess we should at some point add "Artist names" to Draw where that can translate over.

As it is on the right by default...

Add a showChat = false query to the EtherDraw url so that we can add a chatbox to EtherDraw and not have two chat boxes for the Etherpad ep_draw plugin.

JohnMcLear/draw#22

EtherDraw is ready to accept initial author colors.

This is like line 21-ish from draw.js.

I really like the idea. Especially with webrtc in etherpad, this makes a whole new form of collaboration possible.

In my installation ep_draw only allows to draw to the top fraction of the screen.
Test here: https://pad.new.uugrn.org/p/drawtest

Draw itself works fine... see: https://draw.uugrn.org

to enable zooming in/out to edit images past the current window size.
for example http://sketchub.com/ie2gx8i8v3

The installations of ep_draw and etherpad-lite work well for me.

When I enable ep_draw within etherpad, I have an issue with ep_draw only displaying the top bit of the document.

Etherdraw: (http://ip:9002)

Etherpad w/ Etherdraw: (http://ip:9001)

Both are current from git as of yesterday. Ubuntu 20.04

If anyone has input as to what I'm doing incorrectly, I'd love to hear :)

Hello, I'm currently trying this plugin. I've hosted on my server an Etherdraw server on port 9002 and an Etherpad server on 9001. Both are working fine separatly but it seems I can't use the plugin to access etherdraw from etherpad. The reason is really stupid : The button just does not appears.
Is there something I'm missing? I configured the plugin to access http://localhost:9002 so it wasn't a communication-to-server problem.

Thanks for any hint or advice.

If one individual on a large screen draws, those drawings could easily be inaccessible to those users who are on smaller screens. Would there be a way to offer either a zoom function or a scrolling function to allow users to always be able to see each other's drawings? Otherwise, this can appear as a software fault since it looks like the drawings from one user aren't showing up on the drawings of another user.
