Connectors and grouped objects, etc.
by Phil Endecott 19 Dec '05

19 Dec '05

Dear All, I'm continuing in my attempts to draw block diagrams using Inkscape's new features, and I've just encountered some odd behaviour with connectors and grouped objects. I have a rectangle with a text element on top of it. I want to draw arrows between these blocks using connectors. There are a couple of ways that I can do it: I can group the text with the rectangle, and use the center of the group as the anchor for the connector, or I can leave them ungrouped and use the center of the rectangle. If I use the center of the group the problem is that the connector becomes detached if I ever ungroup it. Ungrouping is not unusual; although I can edit the text without ungrouping, I need to ungroup in order to reposition the text within the rectangle. If I use the center of the rectangle for the anchor, the connector seems to become disconnected if I group the rectangle and the text. There are also problems with connectors and snap. It looks as if an un-anchored connector end does not obey any snap rules, or the limited-direction feature that the line tool has when you hold down ctrl while dragging. Also, "Select All" followed by "Transform - Move" seems to not move the connectors. Are these known issues? Is this code evolving in CVS? Cheers, --Phil.

Trouble with 0.43 reading 0.40-saved works
by Gabor Nyeki 18 Dec '05

18 Dec '05

Dear Mates, I'm having some very painful troubles with the brandnew 0.43 release. Namely, when I try to open SVG files that I saved with 0.40, font elements usually get shifted, and stars, circles, and squares get totally black, even if they were supposed to be yellow with red border colour. This is kinda problematic because I don't have 0.40 installed along with 0.43, but sometimes it'd be pretty handy to work with these antique resources. Now, it's possible that someone already asked this stuff earlier here, or it was an officially announced 'Known issue,' however I haven't found anything very certain so far. Should I reinstall 0.40 and leave advancement for the pros? Or can it be solved somehow with 0.43? Thank you in advance, Gabor Nyeki. --- No funny stuff here.

resetting clones
by David Soukal 17 Dec '05

17 Dec '05

Hello everyone, just a quick question about ability to "reset" clone of an object. When I create clones on an object, I can manipulate them at my will (to some extent). Namely, I can stretch them, rotate them and so on... Is there a way to undo these transformations and reset the clones to the current "image" of the original? I realize that this sounds like a non-sense.. why did you modify the clones in the first place, right?! The answer is that I use Inkscape to annotate my plots generated by Matlab. Sometimes I replace Matlab's markers by mine: I create the marker and then clone it as needed. Now and then, it turns out despite my best efforts that it would be best to scale the whole plot.. maybe along the y-axis only... In this case the clones stretch, which is somethign I don't want. And since there are many clones (sometimes even thundreds) it is tedious to replace them again. Thank you for any insights!! Happy holidays! David

Is this code evolving in CVS? Hi Phil, I'd encourage you to submit bug reports on each of these issues, including example files, if there are not already bug reports on them. Bryce
