Call for help: Screenshots needed for 0.46

by bulia byak

As we're nearing the release, we need more screenshots to show off the new features in 0.46, to be published at http://inkscape.org/screenshots/index.php?lang=en. Here's a page describing how to create good screenshots: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/MakingScreenshots. Use the information on that page and the best of the existing screenshots in our gallery as inspiration. At the very least, we need to illustrate: - 3D box tool - SVG filters - more live path effects (we only have one screenshot for path along path) - gradient tool's on-canvas mid stops - a (meaningful) illustration of the color management at work - new extensions - new grid and guide features - perhaps something with custom markers, along the lines of http://needcoffee.deviantart.com/art/Gradients-To-Path-78650259 - any complex, stunning, impressive Inkscape art even if it does not use the new features :) See the release notes for a list of all new features: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ReleaseNotes046 You can send your submissions to me for publishing on the site. Thanks in advance! -- bulia byak Inkscape. Draw Freely. http://www.inkscape.org

Re: [Inkscape-user] translate Attribute stored in SVG Graphic

by Diederik van Lierop

Op Do, 3 april, 2008 08:46, schreef Rottgardt, Jens (K-SIB-2/3): Hi Jens, That would indeed be possible, but we haven't implemented it like that (yet) for circles. Storing a separate transformation, like we do now, is needed for example when stretching or skewing the circle. How does your application store such a transformation? Storing a separate transformation, like Inkscape does, allows for any affine transformation (see wikipedia) to be applied to an object. Modifying the center position and radius, like your application does, only allows for translations and symmetrical scaling. That's why we prefer the former, although we could also have both methods (if only someone would take the time to write the code for that). Just out of curiosity: what application are you using?

Import .cdr files?

by John Culleton

On another list I found someone who had a whole library of clip art in .cdr format which appparently is a Corel Draw vector format. Will Inkscape import these files? I don't have a sample to test. -- John Culleton Resources for every author and publisher: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf http://www.creativemindspress.com/newbiefaq.htm http://www.gropenassoc.com/TopLevelPages/reference%20desk.htm

'inkscape:original-d' attribute

by Alvin Penner

what is the significance of the 'inkscape:original-d' attribute, I mean what action causes it to be present? I'm finding that when it is present, then it is no longer possible to edit the d attribute as one normally would in the XML editor, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/223986 . Is it possible to remove the 'inkscape:original-d' attribute, once it is present? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/%27inkscape%3Aoriginal-d%27-attribute-tp16957161p16...

printing images

by unknown＠example.com

Hi, I have a file containing some text and one image which is embedded in the file. It all looks fine on the screen, but when I attempt to print the artwork (to a pdf file or a physical printer) the image does not appear. I have attached the Inkscape file in question. Any help would be much appreciated. I am using Inkscape 0.46 on Windows XP and Windows 2000.

SVG Viewer for IE

by Rottgardt, Jens (K-SIB-2/3)

Hi, to view SVG in IE I use the Adobe SVG Viewer Plugin. The plugin is not longer supported from Adobe and I am looking for a new plugin. Are any other viewers for IE available ? My tests with IE 7 have shown problems, eg. SVG overlaps divs as you can see in the screenshot. I have already tested the Renesis Player without success! I know that this is not a special Inkscape question but due to the enormous SVG know how of the community I hope to get a recommendation ! <<screenshot IE 7.jpg>> __________________ Jens Rottgardt Buildmanagement ITP Fahrzeugherstellung, K-SIB 2 Postadresse: Volkswagen AG Brieffach 1839 38436 Wolfsburg Besucheradresse: Volkswagen AG Hermann-Münch-Straße 1 (MobileLife Campus) 38442 Wolfsburg > Telefon +49 -5361-896-3276 Telefax +49 (0) 5361-896-3296 mailto:jens.rottgardt@...2472... <http://www.volkswagen.de> > VOLKSWAGEN AG > Sitz/Domicile: Wolfsburg > Registergericht/Court of Registry: Amtsgericht Braunschweig > HRB Nr./.
