NEW: more gradient stuff
by bulia byak 12 Mar '05

12 Mar '05

Some improvements since the last announcement: - All tools that were previously able to click to select (namely node, shapes, and gradient tools), can now do Shift+click (add to selection) and Alt+click (select under) exactly as the Selector tool. - Dragging a gradient handle with Ctrl+Shift will scale the entire linear or radial gradient around its center. - Gradient handles for each gradient are connected by blue lines for fill gradient and yellow lines for stroke gradient. - In gradient tool, instead of dragging, you can double-click an object to create a new gradient centered within the object's bounding box. If you have several objects selected, or if your selected object is behind another one, you can double-click with Ctrl to create gradients on selected object(s) without changing selection. - The selected gradient handle will intercept any color/opacity setting commands and apply them to the corresponding stop(s) of its gradient(s). This means that at least two-stop gradients can be completely edited without ever opening the Gradient Editor dialog. In particular, you can use these methods to change the color of the selected handle: + Dropper tool (for example, to blend a radial gradient onto background, select its outer handle and pick the background color with the dropper). + Paste style (if the pasted style contains both fill and stroke style, the stop will take the fill style). + Fill and stroke dialog [this does not quite work yet because the dialog switches to gradient button and won't let you edit the color] - Double-clicking any gradient handle will open the Gradient Editor dialog with that handle's gradient loaded and the corresponding stop selected in the list. - Before, the actual direction of the linear gradient was not always perpendicular to the line connecting it handles if the bounding box of the object was not a square. This is now fixed, though the fix only works for new gradients that you create (i.e. gradients in old files are not affected). In other news, Richard Hughes' text layout rewrite appears to have reduced the memory consumption on a text-heavy document by about 20%, and rendering is faster by the same percentage. Hooray! :)

autopackage

Just installed inkscape 0.41 with autopackage. When I open it, I get a message saying that one or more extensions failed to load. When I close that window, I get another message saying that Inkscape encountered an internal error and will close. In the command line, this is what appears: SCIM: im_module_init free(): invalid pointer 0x9453670! free(): invalid pointer 0x9453650! Emergency save activated! Emergency save completed. Inkscape will close now. Do I have to uninstall SCIM? How do I get around this?

However, it is not feasible to create a cooperative open-source project (see: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CostumeShop/ ) which relies on an expensive piece of proprietary software.

EPS, PDF, PNG support for transparency, gradients
by oisin feeley 09 Mar '05

09 Mar '05

Hi all, I posted this comment on the gnomedesktop.org article about Inkscape and am reposting it here in case none of you read that article. I've just started using Inkscape and am mighty impressed. The collection of tutorials that comes with the program is great and got me up to speed very quickly. I have one major stumbling block to using this program in the way that I want to though: I would like to create vector graphics with Inkscape, then save them to EPS and use those EPS figures in LyX (LaTeX) created documents. Currently (inkscape-0.41-1, lyx-1.3.5-3) I cannot do this with figures that have transparency or gradients. What happens is that EPS exported figures with more than a single layer are completely munged so that a single plane of color is produced. PNG exported are slightly better. So here's a sort of work around if anyone has the same problem: use Scribus to take the SVG file and export it to PDF or PNG. I should add to the above that when exporting a multi-layered SVG document to PDF using Inkscape the same problem occurs. However scribus-1.2.1-3 is able to get the layering and gradient fill correct with PNG exports and the layering correct with PDF exports (but not the gradient, even if I choose the Acrobat-5.0 compatibility) Hope this helps someone out and is useful feedback to the developers whom I must thank again.

I made a flyer with front and backside in Inkscape. In OpenOffice.org Draw I could use two pages and print it doublesided. Just had to cut the A4 in for pieces and I have 4 double sided flyers. Can I make a second page in Inkscape and do the same? I didn't find how to add a page in a document.

Open Clip Art Library Release 0.11 Announcement
by Jon Phillips 08 Mar '05

08 Mar '05

Open Clip Art Library Release 0.11 Announcement March 8, 2005 UTC - Release 0.11 of the Open Clip Art Library (www.openclipart.org) is now available for download on-line as an individual package consisting of 2896 images submitted by over 200 artists from around the world. Some of the new clip art received this month includes more images of food, computer-related items and even a little boombox. In addition to the collected 0.11 package, each clip art file can now be found by keywords using developer Jonadab's new Keyword Search Tool. The Open Clip Art Library is growing rapidly because of increasing submissions from artists. Currently, the top five artists in terms of the amount of clip art submitted are: Danny Allen (951 images), Nicu Buculei (456), Jose Hevia (453), Andy Fitzsimon (250), and Alan Horkan (119). These Artist's and others contributions are the life blood of the Library. While the critical unit of contribution in traditional Open Source is code, it is a little different with the Open Clip Art Library project in that an actual clip art donation is just as helpful as the code supporting it. For March the Open Clip Art Library encourages submissions of clip art related to the concept of "Spring." In the coming months as the library grows in size, the project needs new developers to help build tools to process this growing repository. Upcoming planned features that the project needs assistance on include capturing and tracking of clip art requests, user account management, adding WebDAV support, and developing wizards to aid in composition. Use the following URLs to download the latest release of the Open Clip Art Library: http://www.openclipart.org/downloads/0.11/openclipart-0.11.tar.bz2 http://www.openclipart.org/downloads/0.11/openclipart-0.11.tar.gz http://www.openclipart.org/downloads/0.11/openclipart-0.11.zip http://www.openclipart.org/downloads/0.11/openclipart-tools.zip The Open Clip Art Library (http://www.openclipart.org/) aims to create an archive of clip art that can be used freely for any use. All graphics submitted to the project are placed into the Public Domain according to the Creative Commons Public Domain Declaration.

Hi! I am a new user of Inkscape, and as for now I just have one purpose of this. I want to convert a jpeg-file to a vectorized EPS file? The purpose of this file should be to give the eps-file to a printing company who should create a commersial sign for my small business. Is there anyone of you who can tell me the easiest way to get this eps-file from the existing jpeg-file, if this is possible in Inkscape? Best regards Lars T.

NEW: gradient tool
by bulia byak 05 Mar '05

05 Mar '05

New in CVS: The Gradient tool (Ctrl+F1 or the g key) is a new convenient way to create, edit, and manage gradients: o Simply drag anywhere on canvas to create a gradient on selected objects. Existing gradients can be edited by dragging their handles (as in any tool that has on-canvas gradient editing enabled). o The tool's controls bar lets you choose the type of the newly created gradients (linear or radial) and whether they will be applied to the objects' fill or stroke. o For the gradient(s) of selected object(s), you can choose one of the gradient definitions in the document from the drop-down list in the controls bar. The Fork button creates a copy of the selected gradient definition and applies it to the selected objects, which is useful when you have several objects sharing one gradient definition but want to change that. The Edit... button opens the gradient dialog where you can edit the gradient definition (add/move/delete stops and change colors and opacities of stops). o The selected (blue) on-canvas gradient handle can be moved by arrow keys with all the regular modifiers (Alt ro move by 1 screen pixel, Shift to move by 10 times the distance). The Tab and Shift+Tab keys let you move selection from one handle to the next or previous. This functionality is largely equivalent to that of the Fill&Stroke dialog, but is much more convenient. Still TODO: - toggle buttons for spread (none/reflect/repeat) - button/dialog to rename selected gradient definition - X/Y spinbuttons for the position of the selected handle - the ability to assign color to the selected handle, so it's possible to edit at least two-stop gradients without opening the gradient editor - additional draggable handles for multi-stop gradients Also today I eliminated the old gradient position widget in Fill&Stroke as redundant. I'm thinking about removing the remaining gradient controls there too ("vector" list, Add/Edit, spread) because they are a duplication of what is available in the gradient tool, and have no added advantages in the dialog. All these changes were rather disruptive, so please test everything thoroughly. Of course any feedback on the usability, terminology (e.g. I had to invent the term "gradient definition" for that color strip with stops that can be applied to objects' gradients; Sodipodi termed them "vectors" which is incredibly misleading), or anything else is welcome.

Text on a path
by aaron Moore 01 Mar '05

01 Mar '05

Hi Can any one please tell me how to place text on a path. I do not understand the tutorial on the subject, particulaly the 'convert object to curve , and the break selected paths to subpaths, operation. Is there an easier way to do it like in the previous release?

Use a font or draw it myself?
by JR 26 Feb '05

26 Feb '05

I've never used inkscape before. I would like to design a logo for the band almost identical to this http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00008WJBF.01.THUMBZZZ.jpg But with a curve in the middle. Should I scour the web for a font or is it feasible to draw this myself? Thanks for any advice, Jarlath
