the code is partially there already, when I wrote the code to retrieve stock markers, I made it based it on a generic stock item system and put a bunch of the back end in for the others. Just never got round to doing ui. oddly enough, was looking at what was needed to go about adding the pattern stuff last night. initially just trying to see if the code I put in there before works. (remembering where it was in the first place was a challenge) No promises on a timescale for progressing it, but the intent is there...

Hi,

To the best of my knowledge, by default several empty directories are created by Inkscape installations: $PREFIX/share/gradients, fonts and patterns. I've already seen several times people asking, where they can find patterns or gradients for Inkscape, because they think that something is supposed to be put there :)

Should we get rid of them until we properly support that functionality?

And do we have some kind of vision for patterns/gradients libraries?

Alexandre
