inkscape doesn't like my serial wacom tablet
by Dwain Alford 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

hi, i've been following the thread about inkscape running slow. there was something that the poster said that triggered this email. it had to do with a dialog box going blank. that's the problem i have with the external devices. first inkscape said there was no external devices. i reset the external devices to normal, reset the settings on my tablet and rebooted the machine (w2kSP4,786mb ram,pIII 450mhz processor - and yes it runs the program ;^) - with a serial wacom gd (#1) tablet). when i opened the external device dialog box the wacom puck shows the settings, but when i try to look at the stylus and eraser settings, the box settings disappear and it seems that the function locks up except for being able to exit. i don't remember this being a problem in 0.44. any ideas? oh yeah, it happens in gimp too. dwain -- dwain alford p.o. box 145 winfield, alabama 35594 u.s.a. tele: 205.487.2570 cell: 205.495.5619

Snaping to Objects
by Marc Fouquet 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

Hello, I have a problem regarding the "Snap nodes to Objects" feature. When I created a simple test document, the feature worked as expected. I drew some straight lines and moved them and their ends snapped together. When I tried exactly the same thing in a more complex document (not too complex, a 33kB SVG-File), it didn't work any more, "Snap nodes to Objects" appeared to have no effect at all. The fun part is that I tried copying the objects in question back into a plain document - and then it worked again. Any ideas? Thanks Marc -- Dipl.-Inform.

question about eps under inkscape
by Elwin Estle 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

I tried to export a graphic I created in Inkscape to eps. It worked, sort of. It seemed to trash my gradients, making them solid, and it looked like there was no anti aliasing. Does eps not support gradients? Or is support for eps incomplete in Inkscape? ____________________________________________________________________________________ The fish are biting.

Re: [Inkscape-user] I'd prefer guides per layer
by momo 14 Feb '07

IMO a much better improvement of the guides would be colored guides, so they could be distinguishable.

I find this quite restricting. Please think about changing this. Dennis

To Scale Drawing
by Brian Cochran 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

I'm using inkscape for crime scene drawing. It works great and is very easy to teach. I have tried to do to scale drawings and been unable to do so. What I'm looking for is 1 inch = 60 inch type feature. I'm fairly certain there is no easy way to do that now. I was wondering if this was a feature that might in enough demand that it maybe included in future releases? If not any ideas on a work around would be great.

Determining the size of selections
by D. Jones 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

I know in the gimp when you use either the rectangle or elliptical selection you are able to see what the size of the selection. Is there a way in inkscape to determine the size of lets say square or circle. Because right now it seems that I am just guessing as to the dimension even with the ruler in use. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Cheap talk?

Raster looking hard edges and lines
by marc0047 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Is it possible to generate objects and line with hard edges? The Illustrator version would be to convert vector shapes into rasterized versions of itself. Is there a way to do that in Inkscape? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Raster-looking-hard-edges-and-lines-tf3225173.html#a8… Sent from the Inkscape - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
