Web design using Inkscape.
by john Culleton 11 Apr '13

11 Apr '13

I bought the book "Inkscape 0.48 Essentials for Web Designers." Unfortunately the boook is light on worked examples. Does anyone here care to post the url of a site using Inkscape, either for main pages or for embedded svg images in an html page? Incidentally Chapter 23 of Tavmong Bah's manual has more useful infomration on this subject then the entire book that I bought, referenced in the first sentence. Live and learn. FYI my first baby steps toward such a site are at http://webdesign.wexfordpress.net -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html

Is there any way to see in real time the rendered text?
by Javier Garcia 09 Apr '13

Hi, I mean, I have a selected text, I would like to see the effect of the different fonts of the list that there is in the upper left corner going down in the list one by one with the cursor, instead of clicking on them to see the result. Do you understand me?? :) Javi 0.48

Will the latest version of Inkscape read and process all files created by earlier versions? If not what are the limitations on backwards compatibilty? -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html

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.

Fwd: Looking for Native Inkscape for Mac 10.7.5
by Jake Johnson 25 Mar '13

Hi All, I really love inkscape, but I am ready to ditch my mac just so I can run native inkscape in linux. Before I do, does anyone have a native version that doesn't use X11 on mac? Best JJ
