full size image/outside link
Hi Friends, I was just looking at a new exension that's been uploaded to the website:
https://inkscape.org/en/~pacogarcia/%E2%98%85inkscape-to-povray-exporter
How did he make the outside link, when you click on the image? All the other extensions that I've looked at, when you click on the image, either you're offered the file (usually zip file) to be downloaded or you see the full size image. I mean, I realize that the link goes to his site, where the file can be downloaded. I just can't figure out how he made that link. Nothing urgent. Just curious :-)
Thanks, brynn

Using the External Link field? https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/upload/ -- Sylvain
Thanks Maren, In this one, which I also used as an example when I replied to Sylvain: https://inkscape.org/en/~Neon22/%E2%98%85lasercut-tabbed-box there's a download and an external link, but the mousing over the image shows it's a link to download a zip file.
TA :-)

How did he make the outside link, when you click on the image?If you only provide a thumbnail image and no download, but a link, then it works like this.

Yes, probably because the owner provided a resource. If he hadn't, the link would be the same at both places.
TA :-)
Means ‘thanks anyway’? -- Sylvain
I don't know what you mean by "provided a resource". Both of them have an image, which I think is the resource.
I use TA for Thanks Again :-)

No, I think the image is the thumbnail. If the image is the resource, my question would be: where do you put the ZIP file? -- Sylvain
Well, we have this extension, where you click on the image, and you don't get the download. You get the image. https://inkscape.org/en/~PacoGarcia/%E2%98%85inkscape-to-povray You have to click on the External link to get the download.
But I think I see what you mean. If there's no file, and there is an external link, the link is getting applied to the thumbnail.
I might test it later, just so I understand it. Right now, we have some kind of an issue with those images which look like a gray piece of paper with a jagged white line across the middle (on the first page of the gallery). Apparently they aren't really images. I just made a bug report, at Martin's request.
But I think I'll wait a little while for that to get cleared up, before I try a test.
Thanks again :-)

Yeah, that's because the uploading user didn't know the trick, and because that change is more recent, I believe. Fixed it, so it won't confuse users anymore.

Thanks Sylvain, I thought that was for the link in the bottom-right area of the image page. For example, this one: https://inkscape.org/en/~Neon22/%E2%98%85lasercut-tabbed-box has an external link in the bottom-right area, but when you click on the image, it's a link to a zip file (download).
