Re: [Inkscape-user] Preserving resolution of embedded bitmaps
by Robert Davis
Can't you tell in Inkscape Preferences to scale as 300dpi and not 72?
Haven't tried it since everything I did was 72.

RE: [Inkscape-user] Preserving resolution of embedded bitmaps
by Joshua A. Andler
When you say that it is a bit fiddly to scale it back to the correct
size... have you done it numerically? Such as right-clicking on the
image and going into 'image properties' and modifying the width and
height that way?
Hopefully that helps...

embedding SVG in (X)HTML
by Steffen Glückselig
Hello,
I'd like to embed some SVGs in XHTML. I'd use the object-Element of
(X)HTML for that task.
I'd like to scale the SVG to fit the dimensions given by the
object-element via its width- and height-attributes.
Is that possible? What would I have to add to my svg-file or to my html?
best regards
Steffen

centering diagonal line points
by Rob Benton
I've been working some with inkscape some and I have a problem I'm not
sure how to solve. Let me draw a simple diagram:
+----------+
| Box 1 |
+----------+
/
/
+----------+
| Box 2 |
+----------+
Is there a way I can exactly line up the end of those points to the
center of each box? The top point of the line to the middle of Box 1
and the bottom point to the middle of Box 2.
I didn't know if there was a good way to do this. Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks

POV-Ray users?
by Jon A. Cruz
If there are any POV-Ray users kicking around out there, could you drop
me a mail directly and let me know? I've seen a few of you lurking
around out there (especially given the new POV-Ray export), and was
looking for any guinepigs for a little util I'm working on.
Thanks.

Performance Qs...
by Joshua A. Andler
I have just a few Qs regarding performance that I'm just curious about
(not complaints, just wanting to understand).
1) Why does inkscape respond much slower when moving grouped/multiple
items via arrow keys vs mouse?
1a) Why does it take so long to regain control of objects when they've
been moved? (once again, those grouped/multiple objects)
2) Why does it sometimes take up to 2 mins to start responding again
after moving grouped/multiple items (via KB)... longest I've seen by
mouse is 20 seconds? (sometimes processor is pegged, other times only
using 3%, but still not responsive)
3) Why does inkscape explode in RAM so much? Basically if I have an
800k document, why would inkscape be using 133megs of RAM (not always,
but if working with it for like 30mins), vs a smaller (500k) document
that only uses like 40megs.
Thanks

Splitting one large image into several small
by Frans Englich
Hello all,
I have a problem which perhaps isn't strictly related to Inkscape, but perhaps
you now the solution for anyway, if it's not possible to solve with Inkscape.
I have large SVG images which at the end will be transfered to wood -- they
are lineart blueprint acting as templates which the wood will be cut after.
The blueprint are large -- 0.5m x 1.0m -- and it's too expensive for me to
let a printing office print them, so I am looking for alternative solutions.
My plan is to apply a grid on the image, chop it into A4 chunks, and play
puzzle afterwards. But how do I convert this large SVG image(or converted to
any other format) into a "mosaik" of small images, suitable for printing?
Manually would take too long and be too error prone.
Anyone has an idea?
Cheers,
Frans
