Hi,
long-time Inkscape user here, looking to get into coding for it
too.
I created this really simple extension
for setting CSS classes on elements.
It has an option to clear inline styles of the elements, so that
the css class would have an effect.
It is useful when having numerous elements that repeat or have
the same styles.
First, select a correctly styled one, use "Merge styles into CSS".
Then select the rest and use "Set CSS class" to apply the new
style on them.
I am aware of the extension
posted on the forums that sets classes, but having to
manually clear styles after is a bit of a pain, so not completely
usable for my case... and it's not in a code repository, so no way
to contribute.
I read that in GSoC CSS handling will be improved, which is awesome!
Hope someone finds this useful.
Regards,
Mois
