GSoC report for the past week

[L. E. Segovia]

Hey all,

I wasn't able to attend today's meeting because of uni commitments (two 
essay defences and one essay to submit on Wed), so I'm sending you my 
project report through this medium.

Last week the SeExpr generator was merged to both 4.3 and master (see 
https://invent.kde.org/graphics/krita/-/merge_requests/380, 
https://invent.kde.org/graphics/krita/-/merge_requests/411). After that, 
I started working on porting the existing user documentation of Disney's 
to our own docs.krita.org. This is available as a MR here:

https://invent.kde.org/documentation/docs-krita-org/-/merge_requests/145

So far, I have ported the Quick Reference document to rST,  added an 
entry to the Fill Layers and Resource Management docs, and a tutorial 
showing how to create SeExpr script resources.

As part of the review of that work, Wolthera found that two of the 
built-in functions did not work as expected, dist and Perlin noise. The 
first was fixed to match the docs, the latter was removed from the 
documentation as it wasn't implemented anywhere. See 
https://invent.kde.org/lsegovia/seexpr/-/commit/b807bfebfec9edc4197ca3561f53625895edc96e.

Additionally, I found two uninitialized memory access bugs on 
VectorControl (the widget for editing vector and color variables), which 
meant that if a vector was later changed to be a RGB color (in the range 
0-1), the application would crash. See 
https://invent.kde.org/lsegovia/seexpr/-/commit/904c607d408cee1a9ea3eca02397b4aa62e15262. 


While checking the above, I fixed Disney's original support for vector 
variables, which now allows users to manage them as RGB colors while at 
the same time being able to constrain the valid value range. See 
https://invent.kde.org/lsegovia/seexpr/-/commit/74737606c01c8a591659c1561b07b695c70f6997.

Best regards,
