Allow me to start by introducing myself, I'm Eya LOUKIL a junior consulting at "Yasmine Engineering Systems " a private Tunisian software Integrator editor. For years now we have been using Inkscape and finding it quite helpful. Lately we thought about integrating a similar version to Inkscape in our platform for our clients to use and we were wondering if there's anything you can to help us do that. Sincerely, Eya LOUKIL

on-screen color palette
by Larry Pryor 14 Oct '19

I recently downloaded Inkscape (windows version). It was running great, as I was watching the youtube videos how to use it. However, somewhere along the line, I must of hit and/or clicked on something by accident, because NOW the fill/stroke color palette along the bottom of my screen is NO LONGER displayed. What did I do and how do I undo my mistake in order to be able to select colors again? Your help and assistance is greatly needed & appreciated… Larry
