Dear all
The following concerns outstanding issues in DR 13-0014 relating to
§19.5.28 cmd (@cmd) and §19.5.4 animMotion (@ptsTypes)
Following clarification from Microsoft experts and brief discussion in
today's WG 4 meeting, I propose that the following text be added to the
description of @cmd, immediately before the Example, in the attribute
table in §19.5.28 cmd:
_If the cmd attribute contains an empty string value or is omitted,
no command is issued._
In today's discussion we also agreed that the value of @ptsTypes in
§19.5.4 animMotion should be constrained to the pattern "[AFTSafts]*". I
therefore propose that the description of this attribute be changed as
follows:
This attribute describes the point type of _each of _the points in
the path attribute. The allowed values that are understood for the
ptsTypes attribute are as follows:
A = Auto, F = Corner, T = Straight, S = Smooth
UPPERCASE = Straight Line follows point, lowercase = curve follows
point.
Thus, the total allowed set = {A,F,T,S,a,f,t,s}
The possible values for this attribute are_strings_ defined by the
W3C XML Schema string datatype_ST_AnimMotionPtsTypes simple
type__(§20.1.10._9_)_.
_[/Note:/ If the number of points in the path does not match the
string-length of this attribute value, an implementation should
either ignore excess path type characters or infer appropriate
default path type characters according to the corresponding points
in the path attribute. /end note/]_
I am unsure as to whether the Note should be in the attribute
description table or in the new section §20.1.10.9 - see below.
I suggest that a new section §20.1.10.9 ST_AnimMotionPtsTypes is needed
(preserving the alphabetical ordering of simple types defined in
§20.1.10), and therefore subsequent subsections will need to be re-numbered.
20.1.10.9 ST_AnimMotionPtsTypes (Animate Motion Point Types)
This simple type describes the point types of the points in a path
used to to specify the animated motion of a drawing element.
This simple type's contents are a restriction of the W3C XML Schema
string datatype. The string is restricted to match the W3C XML
Schema data pattern "[AFTSafts]*", where the nth character in the
string represents the point type of the nth point in the path that
defines the animated motion, to be interpreted as follows:
Character Value
Point Type Description
A
Auto, straight line follows point
F
Corner, straight line follows point
T
Straight, straight line follows point
S
Smooth, straight line follows point
a
Auto, curve follows point
f
Corner, curve follows point
t
Straight, curve follows point
s
Smooth, straight line follows point
