Any collaboration features built into Inkscape?
by Steve Litt
Hi all,
I'm writing a book, and one chapter compares and contrasts vector
drawing programs. This specific section is about several people in
several cities getting together via Jitsi or Zoom or GotoMeeting or
whatever and working on a diagram together. I'd envision one
participant making changes, then another participant, etc. I wouldn't
anticipate two doing it simultaneously: That would be a recipe for
disaster.
So does Inkscape in any way facilitate this kind of collaboration?
Thanks,
SteveT

Unexpected behavior in version Inkscape 1.1 (c68e22c387, 2021-05-23)
by Steve Litt
Hi all,
I'm using Inkscape 1.1 (c68e22c387, 2021-05-23), and running into
unexpected behavior with text, as explained below:
My drawing has a text item with hard newlines and specific spacing
between baselines (1.1). I save it as plain SVG, close the file, then
reopen it. The text item's baseline to baseline appears to have
reverted to 1.0, but the text now appears to be on one line, and if I
insert newlines, everything just gets jumbled together on the same
line. If I add material, different lines have different baseline to
baseline distances.
The bottom line is I have to completely recreate the text item from
scratch on every edit, which slows things to say the least.
This is probably intermittent, because I have another text item that so
far, from minimal investigation, appears not to have this problem.
I can also tell you that I seem to remember problems like this (rarely)
in earlier versions, but I can't remember any details.
* Has anybody else encountered this?
* Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong, and how to do it right?
Thanks,
SteveT
