menuproblem 0.44pre...
by Hago Ziegler 28 May '06

Hi, I have -for some time now- a problem with 4 menus in Inkscape 0.44pre... First I thought it might be a state of the work. Now I want to make sure, that the problem is known You can see it here: http://hagoschaos.de/test/test.html It's explaining itself, I think. I'm running WinXP and I'm using the "Daily Inkscape Win32 Build Snapshots" Regards, Hago

Printing revisited.
by Thetargos 28 May '06

28 May '06

Recently we had a discussion in the Fedora Marketing mailing list about color management and accuracy in Inkscape, and this discussion touched several topics like the lack of true CMYK support, not Inkscape's fault, but the format's; and other color accuracy topics including color profiling with ICC and other stuff. By looking at the SVG site over at the www.w3c.orgsite, I noticed there was a proposed spec for SVG for printing, which would be called SVGP, and if I understood correctly it would be a subset of SVG 1.2 spec with some additional features with printed media specifically in mind. My questions to the list, actually is if this is going to be supported by Inkscape, and if the developers know a time frame when we could expect to have the first implementation of the spec? In the mean time, what method do you recommend for producing printed material off Inkscape's designs? Being that currently there is no conversion table or color management with ICC (or not that I am aware of) and the issue of color accuracy, which is a major problem for a lot of people. Some one over the mailing list proposed EPS and PDF, but if further manipulation is required, how can these formats be easily manipulated? Unless you had the original SVG that originated these other files it would be impossible... Anyhow, how are people making printed materials with Inkscape doing it? Thanks in advance!

0.44: Shift+middle button drag pans, does not zoom in
by Jean-François Lemaire 27 May '06

Hello, I see in the release notes for Inkscape 0.44 that Shift+middle button drag should zoom into the canvas, but here it does exactly the same as middle button drag: panning. And yes, both my Shift keys are working fine :-) JFL -- Jean-François Lemaire

This reminds me of an idea that could be recycled: Electronic circuits as blocks. Fit all of your compenents to the same sized invisable square. Draw the connections to the midpoint of the sides of the squares. Then when compenents are placed against each other, they connect. Of course, this is only suitable for simple circuits, but it would be possible for a program to analyze the SVG file and interpret the circuit, possibly even generating Javascript for a suitable viewer to simulate the the operation. -- _______________________________________________ Search for businesses by name, location, or phone number. -Lycos Yellow Pages http://r.lycos.com/r/yp_emailfooter/http://yellowpages.lycos.com/default.as…
