Hello, Is there a way in Inkscape to crop images? It may be in pure svg xml, because I'm only using the Inkscape viewer. the problem is when I put nested <svg> tags arround the <image> tag, the cropping is never executed. Example: <svg width=... height=... viewBox=....> ... some tags to draw like rectangles, .... <svg width="100" height="100" viewBox="0 0 100 100"> <image xlink:href="image_to_show.jpg" x="0" y="0" width="200" height="200"/> </svg> </svg> In this example I would expect only 1/4 of the image to be shown, but the image is always shown in total. Anyone an idea how to do this?

Inkscape 0.42 Release Preparations
by Bryce Harrington 07 Jul '05

07 Jul '05

Hi all, We're getting close to being ready to make the 0.42 release. Currently we are in Feature Freeze mode while we fix bugs. We've closed a lot of bugs over the past few weeks and are nearly ready to move into the next phase. Here is our process: 1. Start of release process - Finish up work on features. 2. Feature Freeze Mode - Shift focus from feature implementation to bug fixing <--- ** You are here ** 3. Hard Freeze - Two freeze wardens are named. All development must be done as patches submitted to the freeze wardens for review and integration. 4. Branch - The codebase is tagged and branched. Final release tarball is posted. The codebase is returned to regular open development. 5. Packaging - Three days are allowed for creating release dists (rpm's, deb's, exe's, and autopackages). 6. Release Announcement - A Release Announcement and a Press Release are written and circulated to relevant online news sites. Our Freshmeat record is updated. Judging from the speed of our development work, we may be entering into Hard Freeze mode as early as this weekend. At this time, in addition to resolving the remaining 'Must Fix' bugs, we need to wrap up work on the following: * Everyone who has added features, please describe your work on the ReleaseNotes page. * Arpad, can you let translators know we will be in Hard Freeze (including String Freeze) in about a week? * ScislaC, would you mind bringing AUTHORS up to date? Several people have submitted patches lately, and I want to make sure we have all the credits in time for the about screen. :-) * Jon & Kees, let me know if you two will be our Release Wardens this time through. * Bulia, please let us know if we have the right set of Must Fix bugs accounted for. * Ted, when you get a chance, can you put up another pre-release * Rejon, can you prepare a preliminary press release for us? It's been a while since we had a release, so this will be important news. :-) Thanks, and happy 4th to the usians. :-) Bryce

Recent XML-RPC vulnerability
by Jonathan Leighton 06 Jul '05

06 Jul '05

Just a FYI: I was going to delete xmlrpc.php from our WP install until I had time to upgrade it, but I realised that I had already replaced the contents with "This file is not used." previously anyway, so we are not vulnerable (so there's little point upgrading). -- Jonathan Leighton aka.

Hello, I can find no way to make a canvas item a singleton, i.e., ensure that only one of its class is created. Is there a way? Thanks, ralf

That might be nice to have for now. I think after the 0.42 release, I'd like to try rewriting the clonetiler in terms of a simple CFG engine. All of the plane symmetry groups should be expressable that way. Users wouldn't see anything different, except we could (for example) allow an additional option of specifying a ContextFree-style grammar instead of a symmetry group. -mental

0.42: Call for screenshots!
by bulia byak 06 Jul '05

06 Jul '05

We need more screenshots for 0.42. I recently added one screenshot for the new Align options: http://inkscape.org/screenshots/index.php and we have enough screens for clone tiler and i18n, but for the rest of the features, submissions are solicited. We would appreciate both "demo" (focusing on features) and "work" (showing real work projects) screenshots. Here are some requirements: - 1280x1024 PNG - Visually interesting. It's not to be a design masterpiece but it must not be too ugly, too unbalanced, etc. - Sufficiently informative. We can't have too many screenshots on that page, so we must try to cram as much stuff as possible into each screenshot. Don't waste space. Add objects, captions, explanations. Open dialogs, switch tools, make tooltips appear before shooting. Use objects both large (visible on the thumbnail) and small (visible in full image only). Make each screenshot a story that invites close examination, thinking, and experimentation. The screenshots page is usually the first one that new users go to, so let's work on a 0.42 screenshots collection that makes justice to this great release. -- bulia byak Inkscape.

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Finally got distcheck to pass! https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93438&package_id=991… If the people who can build binary packages would, then we can send an e-mail to the user's list for wider distribution. Whew! Thought that would never get out! --Ted
