only 1 filter possible when grouped?
by Perry Kappetein 14 Mar '15

14 Mar '15

When you group several items, Can you do only 1 filter? I tried it, and I can only do 1, until I ungroup the items.. then I can apply several filters to it. (I have 25 squares, and wanted Button and Bloom) All selected then it works, but if I am grouping them first, then I can only apply 1, and I don't see The effect of the other ones. Is there a way to do it, without having it ungrouped ? Thank you

Turning a clone into a regular object?
by Brian Burger 11 Mar '15

11 Mar '15

Is there a way to turn a cloned object back into a regular individual object? I've got a set of symbols that I've copied, duplicated, cloned, copied to new documents, moved to other new documents, etc etc so many times I've got no idea what the "original" would be. If I use Shift+D to "discover original" in all of the several documents I'm currently working in, all I get is "original is in defs and NOT VISIBLE" - and if I try to copy one of these symbols from that document to a new one the cloned parts straight up won't cut and paste over to the new Inkscape doc. I could redraw these symbols, they're not all that complex, but I'd really rather not have to. Is there a way to turn a clone object into a freestanding regular object? Thanks, Brian

new feature worth requesting - Find/Dropper/Selection ?
by Brynn 08 Mar '15

08 Mar '15

Hi Friends, Do you think it would be possible, for a new feature, to be able to use the Dropper tool to identify what one wants to search for, using the Find dialog? So for example. I want to find everything with a green fill #00ff00ff using the Find dialog. Would it be possible, with Find dialog open, to click on something with that green fill, with the Dropper, and have the proper info entered into the Find dialog? Or maybe instead of Dropper, use the Selection tool, since it can already identify everything? Just select one of whatever you want to find all of....and maybe context menu > Find, or a key shortcut, and all the proper info is entered into the Find dialog. Or maybe there's a button in the Find dialog, "take from selection"? Or something like that? Maybe this is "mission impossible" but I guess it can't hurt to ask :-) (....much!) This would just make finding things a little easier, because I can never remember, from one time to the next, exactly what I need to enter in the Find dialog. And I have to look up the manual every time. And because I don't know much about SVG/XML, there's often a lot of trial an error, figuring out exactly what to enter. (Now and then, I can't figure it out at all, and have to just give up.) So it would be nice not to have to know or understand those technical details. Just select one of whatever you want to find, and it's automatically entered. Thanks for comments, brynn

View > Page Grid 0.91
by Brynn 07 Mar '15

07 Mar '15

Hi Friends, Nothing serious, mostly just curious. But possibly a bug? When I open a new blank document, and decide I want to display a grid (rectangular, haven't tested axonomic/isometric), and I click the View menu, it shows a checkmark beside the Page Grid option, even though I haven't yet displayed it. Once I display the grid, the checkmark remains beside the Page Grid option, and when I click to....un-view the grid, (not sure if unchecking Page Grid option is the same thing as "hiding" the grid) the checkmark disappears, as expected. And after that, it works as expected. It's just curious to me, why it originally shows the checkmark, on a new blank document with no grid showing. I found this bug report which might either be the same thing I'm reporting, or related. https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1318318 I'm not sure about such technical details. So is this issue the same bug, or a new bug, or not a bug at all? If not, can someone explain? If it's a new bug, should I report, or should a developer report? Thanks for your help :-) brynn

Material Design icon set to use as inkscape 0.91 symbols
by Xaviju Julián 05 Mar '15

05 Mar '15

Hi! I just send you this email to let you know that I created a symbol set for inkscape with the *Google Material Design Icons* (at the moment only this set) that you may find useful for design and development. https://github.com/Xaviju/inkscape-open-symbols I also encourage you to collaborate as indicated in the readme to make it even better and make designers and front-end developers happier. Lets open source and share our own icon libraries as well. Hope you enjoy it. :) Xaviju

Automatically adding xlink refs based on text in the .svg file
by Peter Brooks 03 Mar '15

03 Mar '15

I've been trying to do this for a while now, and I hoped that it'd be possible with the inkscape command line, but I'm new to this, so I can't see how. I've got a .svg file that's from the OpenGroup's Archi application. It's got boxes and links with names. What I'd like to do is make the names clickable. So, for example, the box: ---------------------- | | | my_label | | | ---------------------- Would be clickable, as a box, and go to: http://mywebsite.com/my_label This will work because I'm using a wiki, so the 'my_label' will become a page on the wiki. Is there a way to get inkscape to add the link: <a xlink:href="http://mywebsite.com/my_label"> box </a> Or, in other words, to translate: <a xlink:href="http://takingserviceforward.org/wiki/index.php?title=Service_agreement"> <text fill="black" x="332" xml:space="preserve" y="159" clip-path="url(#clipPath8)" stroke="none" id="text88738">My_Label</text> <rect x="1356" y="370" clip-path="url(#clipPath5)" fill="none" width="246" rx="27.5" ry="27.5" height="54" stroke="rgb(255,255,181)" id="rect88726" /> To: <a xlink:href="http://takingserviceforward.org/wiki/index.php?title=My_Label"> <text fill="black" x="332" xml:space="preserve" y="159" clip-path="url(#clipPath8)" stroke="none" id="text88738">My_Label</text> <rect x="1356" y="370" clip-path="url(#clipPath5)" fill="none" width="246" rx="27.5" ry="27.5" height="54" stroke="rgb(255,255,181)" id="rect88726" /> </a> I'd be grateful for any suggestions - if there's something else that manipulates .svg files that could do this, it'd be good to know!

Inviting you to LGM and Inkscape Hackfest in Toronto
by Bryce Harrington 24 Feb '15

24 Feb '15

Hi all, I would like to invite you all to join me in attending the Libre Graphics Meeting in Toronto! It is held April 29 to May 2 at the University of Toronto. Inkscape will also be hosting a Hackfest the three days prior to this event, April 26-28. If you've done any development on Inkscape, and wish to help us plan our future, then definitely please come! ~=> Please let me know ASAP if you can attend! <=~ We have sponsorship available on a limited basis to Inkscape contributors, first come first served, so make sure to RSVP with me quickly. Our community has been coming together with donations specifically to enable developer attendance. We've got $10,000 set aside for this event, and with this hope to assemble 10-12 developers there. Maybe more depending on how the fundraising goes! Speaking of fundraising, please help us spread the word that our project needs more cash donations for this event. Point folks here for details: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/hackfest/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ * The Libre Graphics Meeting is the major event of the year for FOSS graphics application developers and users. I've only been once myself, but Inkscape has attended many times. It's a great way to network with our peer projects, share ideas, and get inspired. * The Inkscape Hackfest is new this year. It's rare for us to have dedicated time face-to-face to work on Inkscape. We're going to use this valuable time to design some major new features and to plan out a roadmap that will take us to 1.0. Other topics I hope we can work on include designing a new extension system, re-thinking our UI design, improving our pdf/printing capabilities, and all the other things listed as 'Future' on our current roadmap page. Personally, I'm hoping to experiment with running Inkscape with cairo-gl, and test getting Inkscape running as a Wayland client. * Are you located in Toronto and available to help Inkscape? We're looking for someone who can assist with local logistics. Please contact me and let me know your availability. * Sponsorship amounts will vary according to your history with the project. We definitely want everyone but in particular we're hoping to encourage high volume, long term contributors, so will try and skew sponsorship their way. So if you're a long term contributor, you really need to come! Bryce

Hi! Seems I'm lacking the editing functionality for symbols in 0.91 (windows 64 bit) According to: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/SymbolsDialog , there should be a menu item object => symbol to group and object -> group to symbol....... Was it left out in 0.91, or is it hiding in the menus somewhere , have you found it ?? Regards Kjell L.

In my case, I copied an image our of a web page viewed in Firefox. 4) Observe crash. Alternately 1) Launch Inkscape 0.91 to a blank page. 2) Paste an image onto the blank page. In my case, I copied an image our of a web page viewed in Firefox. 3) Open a pre-existing drawing. 4) Observe crash. Cheers, Steve

building a team of Inkscape forum representatives
by Brynn 14 Feb '15

14 Feb '15

Hi Friends, I want to create a small team made up of representatives from all the Inkscape forums which are listed on the Community page of the website. (https://inkscape.org/en/community/) This could be useful for making certain announcements to a broader community of Inkscape users, only a fraction of which are even aware of the mailing lists. For example, it would be nice to have a message posted in all the forums, linking to the recent news items about the need for donations for Hackfest. (https://inkscape.org/en/news/2015/02/11/inkscape-developers-need-your-help/). For another example, to announce a world-wide drawing competition, perhaps such as the About Screen contest, or others which may be created in the future. In the past, since I only understand English, I've run into problems trying to figure out who the admins are, for the non-English forums, and problems communicating, even if I can identify the admins. But that was before I joined this user list. And so now, maybe I can reach out on this mailing list, and begin to build this team. It would involve very little efforts or time/energy, on the part of these volunteers. Such representatives would receive very occasional emails from me, with the links and info that needs to be posted. We just need 1 person from each of the forums listed below, who would be willing to receive these email messages, and post the info in new topics on the appropriate board of their forum. It doesn't have to be the admin of the forum (but it could be). Any registered member who is allowed to post messages could do the job. InkscapeForum.com - I can post here myself Inkscape Community - same here InkscapeForum.de (German forum) - we already have a volunteer for this forum Inkscapeforum.it (Italian forum) Open Draw Community (another German forum) LinuxGraphic.org's Inkscape board (French forum) Russian Inkscape forum (Russian) Inkscape Google Plus Community (https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/117926126525789007045) Just reply to this mail with your name and contact info. If you don't want to announce your address on the mailing list, just send the reply to me directly. And by the way, I know there are more Inkscape forums in existence, which are not listed on the Community page. I'd be very happy to add them to the list, if the admins of those forums would like to be listed. Just reply to this message, to let me know. Thanks for your help :-)
