Re: [Inkscape-devel] Objects ("patterns") along path - pathscatter extension

Or would "path effects" help, which looked quite promising, but I could not find out how to use them (e.g. specify the pattern)?  In that case, I am sorry if I overlooked some documentation.

I think "Pattern along Path" is what you want. First select your pattern and press Ctrl+C. Then select the path, go to Object->Path Effects->Path Effects Editor, and apply the Pattern along Path effect. Click the paste icon near the pattern parameter. It should work now.
