Printing Resolution
by Craig Leat 21 Apr '09

21 Apr '09

Hi Thanks for a great app. My GIS app has limited print composer functionality and I've been looking for a tool to create fancy titleblocks around my maps. I'm able to export a map from my GIS app and export a titleblock from my CAD app both as pdf files. Using Inkscape I'm able to overlay the titlebock on the map, mask some of the map with a white hatch, save as a pdf and finally print from Adobe Reader. This works well as both the vector titleblock and raster map print clearly. I could save some time if I could print from Inkscape directly instead of going via pdf to Adobe Reader. I tried file -> print -> rendering -> vector, but I lose my bitmap. I also tried file -> print -> rendering -> bitmap -> DPI setting, but always get a low resolution print out. The manual [1] states "The second option is Bitmap which rasterizes the output. There is an option to set the DPI for the output but this does not appear to have any effect (Bug). All drawing elements are rendered correctly but with poor resolution." So my question then is "has this bug been resolved yet?" I searched on Launchpad, but didn't find it. I'm using version 0.46 on Windows XP. I tried to compile the development version on Ubuntu 7.10, but ran into problems with a Cairo library that appears to be too old (1.4). Thanks for your time.

a few issues
by ryrych＠...400... 21 Apr '09

21 Apr '09

Hi guys and girls! Working in Inkscape I've found some inconvenience recently. I often work in Inkscape creating and experimenting with logotypes. I do like this vector application. :) I migrated to Gentoo a few months ago and didn't have time to deal with Inkscape devel especially of dependencies. So, I use stable version now. If I remember correctly there was available many LPE in dev Inkscape, but they disappeared somewhat. I especially pay attention on envelope, which was very helpful. I'm lack of it. I had to use GIMP to use perspective on shapes, save them to png and then trace them in Inkscape which was a little tricky. I hope guys you restore adequate LPE or some perspective tool for users. :) Next issue. Sometimes I have to add some nods on a shape in a straigh line (horizontal or vertical - it doesn't matter). So I adjust a guideline and "cut" shape - that is, add nods. I had a short experience in Blender - the 3D application and still remember helpful tool which cuts shape to add nods (velocities? - I don't remember) on it. I think of a thing that it would be useful in Inkscape too. Operating on nods during play with logotypes is really common - so you often move them forward and backward. I don't mind that the tool (let's call it interactive knife) cuts one shape into antother two like difference. I want it to add series of nods on a shape cause adding them by clicking is very tricky. Imagine - Hold [ALT] keys and LMB and move your mouse - such an interactive selection tool could add nods on a shape (outline). See? I had to use offset or dynamic offstet (excuse me, I don't remember actual name because I use Polish version) just today. I found this feature quite interesting, but in rough use. I needed to enlarge a shape about literraly a few pixels - you know - logo require precission, and found it a little tricky to do it. It would be fantastic to add some numeric fiels for offsets like for width/height. What do you think about it? Some months ago I told one developer about my idea of eraser improvement. He found it quite interesting. So I repeat it. So could you add default shapes for eraser for instance a circle or a square? The tool uses calligraphy mechanism today. Do you intent to improve it before next release? Eraser is quite interesting tool but is really useless as far the calligraphy philosophy is concerned - you know, utterly useless change of angles while moving/turning. What's your plan for eraser tool? So, that's all now. I hope I expressed myself clearly and made myself understandable. :) cheers, Wojciech Ryrych :)

objects along path extension
by Alexandre Prokoudine 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

Hi, A user published his own extension for Inkscape here: http://www.linuxgraphics.ru/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=545&pid=4921#pos… As you can easily decipher, the extension places multiple objects along a path (which should be bottom object in a selection) Code: http://www.hotlinkfiles.com/files/2459363_ia86q/placeonpath.ink.7z Do we want this in upstream?

Inkscape "simple" Configure bug-fix needed
by Joshua A. Andler 18 Apr '09

18 Apr '09

Could someone who is competent with configure options take a quick look at the following?: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/169097 I'm not a configure guru by any means, but it seems like it should be straightforward. Just thought I'd point out A low hanging fruit for anyone who might want to fix it (and close a bug). Cheers, Josh

Broken icon build
by Jon A. Cruz 18 Apr '09

18 Apr '09

It appears that the build has been broken this evening due to addition of icons and makefile changes. I am working on this, and should have things tracked down shortly. I do want to test it before committing, though. So it's being worked on. If anyone runs up against this, just drop in the chat room to check the status. Thanks.

Conical gradient simulation using filters
by Jasper van de Gronde 17 Apr '09

17 Apr '09

I've been playing with simulating conical gradients a bit more and have updated the Wiki page with the latest results (including some SVGs and some PNGs showing how they are rendered by Inkscape and Batik): http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Advanced_Gradients As can be seen Inkscape can now render all the required filters properly and in agreement with Batik.

Please leave the icons alone
by Jon A. Cruz 17 Apr '09

17 Apr '09

Krzysztof, Please STOP touching the icon code and icons. You have been ignoring the problems others are seeing, have ignored the information provided to you on them, and have been breaking existing functionality. It is clear that you don't understand the aspects that are tripping you up (since I don't believe you're being malicious about it), but you are causing serious regressions in behavior. I've also have had to spend a lot of time unbreaking things that I otherwise need to be able to finish some of the new work I had been adding. Also could you *PLEASE* complete the list of icon renamings that I've asked you for. We need this for compatibility, including needing to use it in some icon.cpp code that you removed yesterday. But the list of name changes is very important to document. In case you're just stuck, I've gotten a start added under src/widgets/mappings.xml Please get that updated with all the changes you've made. Thanks.

I have assigned the mentors for gsoc. If you had offered to mentor a student/proposal, chances are good that you have been assigned to them. If for any reason you feel you won't be able to mentor, please let me know asap. Thanks, Josh
