I can not choose a fill color
by Javier Garcia 30 Mar '13

Hi, when I draw a box, it is transparent (the border is colored ok). This is what i see in "Fill and stroke": I tried to choose "Remove fill", but when i set a color again, the squares pattern on the left keeps in "Fill:" (look at the image) in "Fill and stroke". 0.48 and Ubuntu 12.10. Javi

3D .STL capabillity
by || ΣΖΟ || 26 Mar '13

I think it would be nice it there was a way to make simple .STL (3D) files. Now I know that inkscape isn't aimed at true 3D but the ease of use of inkscape is hard to find in any 3D modeling software. Now i'm not proposing to transform Inkscape into a full blown 3D modeling app. But it would be nice if it was possible to make something like this: http://worldofgnome.org/how-to-use-inkscape-to-print-3d/ completely in inkscape without the need of external software.. And have an option to cut out a few holes lets say to make a mounting plate. This is something google came up with. http://www.openbeamusa.com/images/products/226.jpg So it is 2.5D not fully 3D. All that's needed is an extrude thickness, and something that renders it to STL. I'm not into coding, but I think this could be done? There are a few other way's to do this but it would be wonderful if it could be done without external apps. Even better would be the full blown 3D transformation. But i'm not sure if I dare to ask for that.

Inkscape Blu-Ray DVD success
by Phil Shapiro 17 Mar '13

17 Mar '13

Hi Inkscape fans, Last night I had fun making this short demo that showcases how beautifully Inkscape's vector graphics can show up on Blu-Ray videos. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dWOBtGbVeo I tried quite hard to do this all on Linux, using OpenShot and k3b disc burning software. k3b will burn Blu-Ray video to Blu-Ray discs -- but not to regular DVD disks. I don't own a Blu-Ray burner yet. If anyone would like to chip in to help me buy an internal Blu-Ray burner for my Linux tower, i'm happy to give a try at making a Blu-Ray disc using only free software (Inkscape, OpenShot, k3b). The good news is that the price of blank Blu-Ray media has dropped quite a lot. I still prefer using DVD's. phil shapiro washington dc -- Phil Shapiro, pshapiro@...2324... http://www.his.com/pshapiro/briefbio.html http://www.twitter.com/philshapiro http://www.his.com/pshapiro/stories.menu.html "Wisdom begins with wonder." - Socrates "Learning happens thru gentleness."
