Text to path(?) question (ES: poner en trayecto).
by Thetargos 25 May '06

25 May '06

I have some questions about the text to path[1] tool. 1) Is there a way to control where will the text be placed after you run this tool? For instance, I draw a stroke, write my text, then select the two elements and go to menu text->text to path, then the text follows the stroke (I assume from the 'fill side'). However, if wanted to place the text in a paticular part or segment of the stroke, how would I do it? (a not so elegant solution that occurs to me is using empty spaces by placing tabs or the like with the text tool). 2) Is there a way to make the text "adapt" when I move the text element along the course of the stroke to that of the stroke? I don't know if I made much sense there, but imagine a winding line, when I place the text in the path, what it will do is place the text at the begining of the line (or strarting point, I assume), so if I move the text along the line, it retains the 'shape' of the starting segment of the line, and does not adapt to that of the other segments of the line through its course, is there a way to attain this? Is it a thought of feature or is it simply not possible to do? Thanks in advance, and thank you VERY much for this incredible app, Inkscape is, keep up the good work! [1] I am not sure that is the name in the English version of Inkscape, as I use a spanish session, my Inkscape is in Spanish, and the name of the tool in Spanish is "poner en trayecto".

Object group origins / anchor points, and subgrids
by unknown＠example.com 24 May '06

24 May '06

Hi, I've been using Inkscape to draw some circuit and block diagrams. This has involved a lot of grid and snap use, and a few times I've thought, wouldn't it be great if I could do 'x'... I'm new to Inkscape, so there may be ways to do these things that I don't know about.....if there are, great, please let me know! So, wouldn't it be great if... * You could define an origin/anchor point for a group, so only that point will snap to the grid....this would mean your circuit symbols and blocks would always line up with their connecting lines. * You could set different grid settings for groups, so that you can do fine detail editing to your symbols, without having to reduce/increase the grid settings every time. (Also some shortcuts to automatically reduce/increase the grid spacing x5 or x10 would probably be useful, and maybe they should also zoom too...........are shortcuts configurable enough already to be able to do this?) One other cosmetic thing I noticed was that all the dialogs were different sizes (on my Windows Inkscape 0.43 at least). It would be nice if they had the same widths or heights so they could be lined up tidly around the sides of the main Inkscape window. Best regards, Ken

Tablet use.
by Thetargos 24 May '06

24 May '06

Ok, first of all, sorry if I flooded the list with my other "issue" about text-on-path (I'm still learning and since I'm not contaminated with any other drawing tool [CorelDraw or Illustrator] I'm quite new to vector graphics, but I'm loving it!). Anyway, I have noticed that Inkscape can take advantage of extended input devices such as tablets. I have a tablet (Wacom Graphire 4) which works just fine with The GIMP, but I have been having trouble working with it in Inkscape. Either I don't fully understand how it is supposed to work with Inkscape or it simply does not work correctly with Inkscape. When I enable the stylus device in the extended input device configuration window in Inkscape, everything seems to work just fine, however there are some quirks: Using the tools feels odd, as it would seem as if the tools won't be reacting to the usual commands, for instance, when drawing a shape, by taping on the tablet with the stylus and trying to drag that shape, won't have any effect, but doing so with the eraser (not configured in Inkscape) does, as Inkscape would register the tap as a left-mouse-click event. Another example of this is node editing: when pressing F2 to edit the nodes a drawn line, I don't seem able to move the nodes with the stiletto-like pointer, however taping anywhere on the stroke I can move that section of the stroke, and the nodes become anchors. Again by tap-dragging with the eraser, which is not configured, I can drag the nodes just as if I were using the mouse. I noticed a keys section with 32 total keys which can be configured... How exactly do they work? What are they useful for? I'm sorry if my questions seem rather n00b'ish, but I'm still learning trying my best to master this wonderful program Inkscape is!

[Fwd: SourceForge.net mailing list service upgrade (Mailman)]
by Bryce Harrington 23 May '06

23 May '06

Good news is we're finally seeing an upgrade to the mailing list software. Bad news is that they're not supporting the customized templates, which may impact the language-specific inkscape user lists, unless they include non-English versions of the mailman pages. Would someone mind checking into this? We should raise this issue with SourceForge if it's the case. Bryce ----- Forwarded message from "SourceForge.net Team" <noreply@...1910...> ----- Date: Tue, 23 May 2006 05:50:37 -0700 (PDT) From: "SourceForge.net Team" <noreply@...1910...> To: bryce@...69... Subject: SourceForge.net mailing list service upgrade (Mailman) Greetings, You are receiving this mail because you are listed as an administrator of a SourceForge.net project that has active mailing lists. As a continued measure to improve our service offering, we are migrating all existing mailing lists to Mailman 2.1.8 (latest stable release). This is the first major upgrade to the Mailman software used for mailing list service in more than four years. We expect this upgrade to both improve security and performance, and to provide a number of features not available in our existing Mailman service offering. We have been testing the new mailing list infrastructure for several weeks with the assistance of a few select projects. Our general migration of all mailing lists to this new infrastructure will begin 2006-05-23. Migration is being handled in several one-day segments and minimal downtime for list service is expected. Before the migration begins in earnest, we wanted to provide you this notice of some specific service changes: 1. Our new Mailman install will no longer permit the editing of HTML page templates and existing customizations to these templates will not be migrated. We made this decision to ensure consistency of the UI among all projects, allow future upgrades without worry about the compatibility of customized templates, eliminate issues related to broken or corrupt templates. In lieu of template modification, we encourage projects to provide list details and instructions via the "introductory description" list configuration option. This option supports basic HTML, so should be powerful enough for conveying intended information, while adhering to common look and feel. 2. List archival is implicitly enabled. It is not possible to opt-out of mailing list archival. As per our Mailing List site documentation (http://sf.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=12983&group_id=1#mlarchives), list archival is mandatory. In reviewing data to be migrated, we have discovered a small number of older lists which had archiving turned off. The ability to disable archival is no longer supported, and archives will be maintained for all lists. If you currently run lists without archival, we encourage you to revisit the perceived need for unarchived lists (for example, we have found unarchived lists that were used for the distribution of centralized team passwords, and upon review by the project, it was clear that this was a practice which should be changed). Control over access to your mailing list archives is established on a per-list basis from the mailing list administration page for your project on the SourceForge.net site. Lists in a 'deleted' status will not have web-visible archives. Individual mailing list posts may be excluded from view by project administrators from the mailing list archive pages. Additional details on data visibility may be found at: http://sf.net/docs/G03#mailing_lists Questions or concerns regarding the mailing list service upgrade may be raised at: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=1&atid=200001 Thank you, The SourceForge.net team . ----- End forwarded message -----

Inkscape Book question
by Tavmjong Bah 23 May '06

23 May '06

Hi, There is a publisher who is interested in the book that I have written (http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/index.php) but needs to be convinced that there is a real market for the book. In the proposal I have already quoted the growth in downloads from SourceForge and the inclusion of Inkscape in most major Linux distribution. Can people on this list think of other ways to document Inkscape's growing popularity? I believe I am up against poor performance of previous books on Open Source drawing programs (which may account for the fact that there are over 1000 Photoshop books versus about a dozen on Gimp, all but one published four or more years ago. Thanks, Tav

Autosave and "lost connection to X server"
by Phil Endecott 21 May '06

21 May '06

Dear All, Does Inkscape have an autosave feature? I thought not, but searching finds some oblique references to such a thing. Generally I have found Inkscape reliable enough that autosave is not necessary, but I've just lost about 40 minutes work with this message: The application 'inkscape' lost its connection to the display :0.0; most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed the application. Any idea what's going on there? It could be that the fault is with the X server, which suggests that Inkscape needs autosave even if it is itself bug-free! One of the search results for "inkscape autosave" mentions something about autosave in response to SEGV and similar. Perhaps what's necessary is for an unexpected X server disconnection to be treated in the same way. Cheers, Phil.

Inkscape on Spanish / Inkscape en Español
by Juan Miguel Ramirez 20 May '06

20 May '06

First I want to thank you (developers, translators, designers, etc) for your brilliant effort to improve Inkscape. I'm a designer, member of differents free software associations like Iniciativa Focus <http://www.iniciativafocus.org> or Linux-Malaga <http://www.linux-malaga.org> who some time ago chose to bet for free software like present and future on the world of graphic's design. Until now i only have contributed to the inkscape's community with some works and designs and some presentations and workshops around Spain: 2ª Jornadas Tecnológicas Andaluzas de Software Libre <http://jtasl.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=52&Itemid=99>(How to begin to design with free software: Inkscape and Gimp), Congreso Hispalinux 2005 <http://congreso.hispalinux.es>(Collaborative design with Inkscape) and Jornadas de Software Libre de Linux Malaga 2006 <http://jornadas.linux-malaga.org> (How to begin to vectorial illustration and make websites and corporate identities with Inkscape). Even though i want to promote inkscape on spanish and help with this task. This is the cause i want to help not only the project itself but to look for more interested people (there is some volunteers on the spanish's mailing list). I would to do it officially through the website because do it apart it would harmful for all and this is all i propose: * Translate the entire website (there is some parts without translations): o Translate all the news (old an new) o Translate the FAQ o Translate all the documentation (nowdays there is only translated the tutorials that comes with the program) o Translate Tools Section * Translate the interface (nowdays it is at 100% but i think the new version has going to have new terms) * Translate the mailing list(there is a spanish's mailing list but when you, for example, have to register all the messages are on english) * Generate new content for the website: o Create new tutorials o Create a planet inkscape on spanish o Insert new screenshots o Insert new elements into the gallery (illustrations, designs, etc) * Improve Inkscape's website trying to do it more autonomous on certain aspect (for example users can upload new designs, news,etc even though has to be supervised by another) To do all this i need to know who are the people in charge of the differents sections (i think it would be useful to create a section with the differents names and mails to contact them) and begin to coordinate with them on how we can do all this. (some sections like galleries, screenshots, some tutorials, presentations,etc are already made) Regards, Juan Miguel Ramirez (yomizmo) And now on Spanish ... Y ahora en español ... En primer lugar agradecer a todos y cada uno de los desarrolladores, colaboradores, diseñadores, traductores, etc por vuestro brillante esfuerzo en mejorar Inkscape. Soy un diseñador, miembro de diferentes asociaciones relacionadas con el mundo del software libre como pueden ser Iniciativa Focus y Linux-Malaga que hace ya algún tiempo decidió apostar por el software libre como presente y futuro en el mundo del diseño gráfico. Lo poquito que he aportado hasta ahora a la comunidad de inkscape han sido algunas presentaciones y talleres sobre inkscape en diferentes eventos en España: 2ª Jornadas Tecnológicas Andaluzas de Software Libre <http://jtasl.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=52&Itemid=99>(Iniciación al diseño gráfico mediante software libre: Inkscape y Gimp), Congreso Hispalinux 2005 <http://congreso.hispalinux.es>(Diseño colaborativo con Inkscape) y Jornadas de Software Libre de Linux Malaga 2006 <http://jornadas.linux-malaga.org> (Iniciación a la ilustración vectorial y Creación de páginas webs e identidades corporativas con Inkscape). Sin embargo después de llevar un tiempo suscrito a la lista de correo de Inkscape en español me he dado cuenta de la necesidad de promover inkscape en mi lengua materna, el español, y ayudar a la comunidad de inkscape en ello. Por eso me he propuesto no sólo a ayudar al proyecto sino a buscar más personas interesadas en hacerlo para ir sumando día a día(hay algunos voluntarios en la lista de correo española). Me gustaría hacerlo de manera oficial a través de la web de inkscape puesto que hacerlo de manera independiente sería perjudicial para todos los usuarios y por ello propongo: * Traducir la web de inkscape completamente al castellano (hay partes sin traducir): o Traducir las noticias (las ya existentes y las que vayan apareciendo) o Traducir la FAQ al español o Traducir la documentación al español (tan sólo están los tutoriales que vienen con el programa) o Traducir la sección herramientas * Traducir la Interfaz al español (ahora mismo está traducido pero hablo pensando en la nueva version, la 0.44 que sé que trae nuevas novedades que habrá que traducir) * Traducir la lista de correo al castellano (ya existe una lista de correo en castellano pero por ejemplo los mensajes a la hora de suscribirte están en inglés) * Generar nuevo contenido para la web: o Crear nuevos tutoriales o Crear un planeta inkscape en español o Insertar nuevas capturas de pantalla o Insertar nuevos elementos en la galeria (ilustraciones, diseños, etc) * Mejorar la web de inkscape intentando hacerla lo más autónoma posible en ciertos aspectos(que los propios usuarios puedan subir diseños, noticias, etc aunque estas tengan que ser aprobadas por alguna persona) Para todo esto necesito saber quienes son las personas encargadas de las diferentes secciones (creo que sería interesante no sólo para mi, el crear una sección con las diferentes personas encargadas de las diferentes secciones y como contactar con ellas) y empezar a coordinarme con ellas cómo realizar todo este proceso. (algunas cosas como graficos para la galeria, capturas de pantalla y algunos tutoriales están ya hechos) Saludos, Juan Miguel Ramirez (yomizmo)

NEW: node sculpting
by bulia byak 20 May '06

20 May '06

http://www.inkscape.org/screenshots/gallery/inkscape-0.44-nodesculpting.png An entirely new way of manipulating paths in Node tool is added in this version: Node sculpting. Normally, when you have several nodes selected and you drag one of them, all selected nodes move by the same amount. Now, if you Alt-drag one of the selected nodes, only that node is fully displaced; other selected nodes are moved less than the full amount, so that those farthest from the drag point remain stationary. So, for example, if you select several nodes on a straight line and Alt+drag the middle selected node, the path will bend into a smooth bell-like curve. Nodes' handles are also adjusted correspondingly to keep the overall shape smooth and natural. (If you don't have enough nodes on a path fragment that you want to reshape in this way, just select the end nodes of that fragment and press Ins a few times to populate it with nodes.) Moreover, node sculpting is sensitive to pressure of your tablet pen. If you press slightly, your curve will have a narrow sharp tip (i.e. the nearest neighbors of your dragged node will move only a bit); if you press hard, the curve's tip will be wide and blunt (i.e. the nearest neighbors will move almost as much as the dragged node). (Hint: to stop dragging without losing your shape, first release Alt and then lift the tip of the pen.) There are many possible applications of the sculpting technique. To take a simple example, selecting all nodes of an ellipse-like shape and Alt+dragging one of them will smoothly and naturally stretch and skew the entire shape in any direction. Doing the same to a complex path, such as star or spiral, will twist and punch it without destroying its intricate structure - this is the way to get squashed or self-intersecting stars, eccentric spirals and other shapes not easily doable before. Selecting only part of all nodes allows you to smoothly reshape parts of the figure without disturbing the rest. Especially useful node sculpting is for complex natural paths, such as calligraphic strokes or bitmap traces, where you often want to do large-scale pushes and bends without destroying the small-scale features. Things like making a calligraphic stroke narrower in one place and wider in another, or extending the ear or flattening the nose of a head, or any other reshaping of complex paths - all this is now much faster and more natural to do using sculpting. Starting from en ellipse with added nodes, it takes just a few Alt+drags to tweak it into a silhouette of a head, or a map of Australia, or an Inkscape logo! -- bulia byak Inkscape.

extensions problem (extensions-error.log)
by Khiraly 20 May '06

20 May '06

Hi! I have just discovered, that there is an extensions-error.log file, and for this reason many extensions are not working. So I have installed the following debian packages: apt-get install pstoedit apt-get install libwmf-bin apt-get install transfig apt-get install skencil (this was the biggest, it installed 12MB additional packages: blt python2.3-imaging python2.3-imaging-tk python2.3-tk skencil) So the error log file reduced for the followings: Extension "DXF Input" failed to load because a dependency was not met. Dependency:: type: executable location: path string: dxf2svg description: dxf2svg may come with Inkscape, but is also at http://dxf-svg-convert.sourceforge.net/ I have installed inkscape from source via debian commands. And I dont find any dxf2svg file. Is this extension supposed to be in inkscape source? However the following extensions are not working for me: render->function plotter (no error message) render->latex formulas pstoedit: version 3.44 / DLL interface 108 (build Mar 11 2006 - release build - g++ 4.0.3 20060304 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.2-10)) : Copyright (C) 1993 - 2006 Wolfgang Glunz Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/inkscape/extensions/eqtexsvg.py", line 121, in ? e.affect() File "/usr/share/inkscape/extensions/inkex.py", line 102, in affect self.effect() File "/usr/share/inkscape/extensions/eqtexsvg.py", line 107, in effect svg_open(self, svg_file) File "/usr/share/inkscape/extensions/eqtexsvg.py", line 49, in svg_open svg = open(filename, 'r') IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/inkscape-latex.tmp.svg' Thanks any advice!

I built the CVS version so I could play with node sculpting. I'm running the latest Dapper. All dependencies are there. When I went to install, the libglitz package was broken (but present), so I downloaded the deb from a Debian repo and manually installed it. Since it's a pretty important package, I can only assume it will be fixed before Dapper is stable. Apt-get insall automake installed version 1.4, but versions 1.4-1.9 are present in the repos, so it was just a matter of telling it to get the right one, and pointing the automake symlink to the right place.

Is that not so? A measure tool in the sense of what the GIMP has, yes. But for precision and numerical entry (very important), you have to select the actual nodes. That is, this should work from the node tool, not be another tool. Select 2 nodes of 1 segment, read the distance (= lenght in case of a straight line), see it's not what you want, enter desired value ... that's the kind of workflow I'm about. Actualy, wether the nodes are the ends of one segment or not isn't important, linear distance could always be measured and changed (moving the nodes in a colinear fashion). There should just be a way to make one node stay in place or to move both by the same amount (could be just likw with Align and Distribute). > Ah, that I added it long ago.

So, what you need is not really a separate tool, but a way to see and enter numeric coords for nodes, first. For that we have an RFE.

Is this what you want? Nope. Say you have a parallelogram and want to keep the angle of the left side, but don't care about the angle of the upper line. With this option (however triggered ui-wise), you could move the upper left node only colinear (congruent was the wrong term) to the left segment. A real world example i've had is a letter V and tweaking the hight of the right end of it. The 2 nodes have to be moved colinear to the sides of the right arm of the V to keep all angles the same. --- Thorsten Wilms

Bug Organizer person needed
by Bryce Harrington 18 May '06

18 May '06

For the 0.44 release, we will be making an attempt to close critical bugs in the bug tracker. However, first those bugs need to be prioritized. We have a system for prioritizing bugs, and it's pretty straightforward to do, even by someone with minimal technical experience. Thus this makes an excellent task for someone who wants to contribute to Inkscape but haven't found other tasks they're comfortable doing. Basically, you go through the bug tracker and review bugs set to priority 5 (the default). If it involves a crash, data loss, or other serious issues, mark it critical (9). Otherwise, mark it 6 if it looks important, or 3 if it looks like a lower priority issue. If you're interested in helping in this area, contact me either on IRC or by email, and I can set up your access and help you get started! Thanks, Bryce

layer icons
by Jakub Steiner 17 May '06

17 May '06

Howdy. I'm very pleased by the introduction of a layer window. Will help greatly to manage more complex artwork. I noticed however the button icons are quite poor in doing what they should - being easier to distinguish than text labels. They all include the rectangle signifying "layer". But the fact that this element appears on evey single one of them makes it nothing but visual noise. I suggest simplifying those icons to the core of what they are trying to say. Use distinguishable silhouettes, color. An image is worth more than my poor writing: http://jimmac.musichall.cz/stuff/visual-noise.png Having said all that, I don't think the metaphor for delete you see on the mockup is particularly strong. cheers -- Jakub Steiner <jimmac@...469...>

inkscape bucket fill?
by j michaelson 11 May '06

11 May '06

hello everyone, i've been dabbling with svg cartoons. i've been scanning black and white line drawings and converting them to svgs with the trace bitmap tool. i then colour them in by drawing blocks of colour and lowering them behind the outline. this is an incredibly time consuming way of doing things and i was wondering if there is a quicker way of doing it that i'm missing. i've tried exporting to a bitmap, using the gimp to bucket fill the gaps and then tracing it back to an svg again, but it's not the most elegant way of working. is there some kind of tool in inkscape equivalent to the bucket fill tool in gimp? thanks. john michaelson.

Rectangle Shape: Not Rounded, but 2 white dots are not in Upper Right Corner
by unknown＠example.com 09 May '06

09 May '06

i'm doing the Tutorial Shapes.and I'm working on the blue rectangle. it's a perfect angular rectangle. A white dot appears in the upper right corner. I drag it down. The rectangle 's corners get rounded.We now can see another white dot in upper right corner. I drag it to the left. Rectangle's shape changes further. I drag this same dot (on the top part of rectangle) back to the corner. And i'm surprised to see that it has become a prefect rectangle again i thought it could only be a perfect (angular) rectangle if the two white dots are in the upper-right corner. It gets even stranger. I play around with the up-and-down white dot (the dot on the right side of the rectangle). Dragging it up or down doesn't change the shape of the now not-rounded rectangle.

New Feature: View Rotation
by Aaron Digulla 09 May '06

09 May '06

Hello, An idea just struck me: A View Rotation Tool Depending on the angle, stokes are more or less difficult. We all know the effect: Drawing a freehand circle. One part is ok, the rest is ... well ... So I propose to add a tool to rotate the view to any angle. This way, we can work with the perfect angle (just as on paper). The tool should be a small circle in the bottom bar. Clicking it turns the image upright. Drag left - Rotate clockwise, drag right - rotate the other way. Always rotate around the center of the visible area. Regards, -- Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla a.k.a. Philmann Dark "It's not the universe that's limited, it's our imagination.

Print Margins
by Michael Pope 05 May '06

05 May '06

I'm running inkscape 0.43_1 on FreeBSD 5.4 & when I go and print it will not display a config box where I can set margins. Is there anyway to set margins when printing through inkscape? I can set some options if I use Print Direct. I'm not using CUPS because that crashes gnome ports (which includes inkscape as it requires libgnomeprint). The only way I can print correctly with margins at the moment is to export each picture I want to a image and use another program to print it correctly. This is annoying. Michael Pope

new path tool?
by j michaelson 05 May '06

05 May '06

hello, i've been using inkscape to colour in cartoons. i've been doing this by drawing a block of colour behind the outline, select both and use the path division tool to seperate the excess colour from the bit i want to keep. the problem is that the division tool cuts the outline down to fit the colour. i've had to duplicate the outline first and use that to do the division, then clean up the remnants of the duplicated outline. this is obviously a slow and painful way of working. what i need is a path tool that does the division thing on the lower vector (the colour) without affecting the upper vector (the outline). is there such a path tool? if not, would it be hard to implement? maybe it could be done with a script or something? thanks. john michaelson.

keeping configuration of straight lines

Hi, I'm trying to draw a set of blue straight lines with arrows but I don't know how to keep the configurations of my lines. That is: To make a blue straight line with an arrow I create a line and after I use the fill and stroke window to set the arrow and the color of my line. After this and I try to draw my second line, so I have to set the arrow and the color again... So, I'd like to draw the following lines with the same configuration of my last one. Is it possible? When I draw rectangles inkscape keeps the last configuration. I'm using inkscape 0.43. Thanks, Marco
