I believe relative paths are the solution to #1 & #2.
Hi,
I'd like to make a couple of requests for features (or perhaps
explanations/pointers to why they can't be included).
1) It would be really cool to have a proper directory selection (or
popup directory chooser) as an option on the inkex dialog. This way
the user doesn't have to memorise their favourite directories etc.,
they can browse to them, or use favourites, etc.
2) Someone on #inkscape mentioned that the filename/directory
information was excluded from the SVG for security reasons, but this
class of information is still freely included in the form of export
hints. It's inconsistent for one, and inconvenient for another. I've
just been developing an extension where it would have been much nicer
to export the necessary files to the same directory by default. A
possible workaround if 1) is ever implemented, would be to optionally
default the directory chooser to the drawing's working directory,
thereby bypassing the security problem.
3) Possibly related to 2. Whenever I export a document from inkscape,
then move the file (I have a bunch of folders/hierarchies and the
files move depending on various states), if I then need to export
again, I have to tell it where to export to, and it's a bit of a pain,
it would be nice for an option to always export to the working
directory.
Thanks,
Craig
