by Khiraly 21 Jun '07

Hi! I know it is a bit offtopic, but maybe somebody can help me out there. I want to print an inkscape tutorial (hence the inkscape mailing list;), but none of the programs is capable to do it. Here is the original image: http://ic3.deviantart.com/fs13/f/2007/113/7/3/a_Quick_Guide_to_Inkscape_by_… I tried firefox, but prints only the first page, so the image is cutted at the top. And after that: gimp (with gimp-print plugin), gthumb, inkscape, evince. None of them was I successful. Any ideas?

Who is Tavmjong Bah aka Stephen Schrenk of Inkscape tutorial fame?
by unknown＠example.com 21 Jun '07

Is this the same Steve Schrenk of baseball fame?? How did he come upon the nom de plume of Tavmjong Bah?? I've Googled and Wikipedia'd for all I'm worth and can't find anything about this apparently very creative individual.? Amongst other things, he's also crafted some Arev fonts, whatever they are.

New Tutorial - Color Wheel Example
by Aaron Elmquist 19 Jun '07

19 Jun '07

I posted a cleaned up solution to the color wheel question asked a couple months back on my deviant site. Looks like the number of tuts on pixel2life.com is picking up steam as well. There's a neat little tut there for creating a rubber stamp effect. To those that have posted comments on the tribal artwork tut, thanks! ironranger.deviantart.com

Layers Dialog Mockup.
by ryan lerch 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

The other day, i decided to lock an object using the "lock" checkbox in the properties dialog box, and when i wanted to edit this object again, the only way i could find to unlock it was to edit the XML using the XML editor. This got me thinking, how could an easier way be implented? microUgly and i were throwing around some ideas at http://inkscapeforum.com/ and we thought, why not be able to change these properties of objects in the layers dialog box? anyhoo, the moral to my rambilings is that i did a simple mockup of how this may work: please tell me what you think... mockup: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/images/Layersmockup.png cheers, ryanlerch

printing partially opaque objects
by David L 16 Jun '07

16 Jun '07

When I try to print objects with alpha values <255, they print as if alpha was 255. If I export them to pdf and then convert them to postscript using pdf2ps, they seem to print with the intended alpha value. I don't know if this is a printer driver problem or what. Clearly inkscape is exporting alpha information that can be used to print correctly (or else it wouldn't print correctly after converting to postscript). However, it's inconvenient to not be able to print directly from inkscape. Does anybody know what might be going on or how I can work around it in inkscape? Thanks, David _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail to go? Get your Hotmail, news, sports and much more! http://mobile.msn.com

The mockup seems an excellent GUI feature perfectly adapted to what I also believe to be a problem of usability in Inkscape... wow I wish I could code I would start this moment. It is the first idea in a long time where so many people on the list are clearly on the same wavelength, and the implementation suggestion is simple and clever... hey! just like Inkscape itself!

forum?

Are there any forums for support or is it only this mailing list. Mailing lists are sooooo hard to follow and messages are all over the place.
