[Kde-games-devel] KMahjongg frameworks branch

[Frederik Schwarzer]

Hi Ian,

today I had a short look at the Classic tileset in Inkscape. I wanted 
to decrease the intensity of the shadow a little bit. When I changed 
the opacity property of the tile in the upper left by "enter group", 
tree of the tile's shadows below was changed accordingly. One of the 
four tile's shadows remained the same.
Do yoou know how this linkage is achieved?
The IDs of the "correct" ones are "use1234" with different numbers for 
"1234". I cannot find those numbers anywhere else, so I cannot guess 
what the right number for the forth tile would be. Any idea?

I also saw the shift between the rotated tile representations but it 
behaves strangly when I try to move the tile. I moved one tile inside 
its group by 10 px down and left and in the game it was moved by 2 or 
3 px. So no luck yet. :)

Regards,
Frederik
