Wacom tablet question
by Dirk Gently 28 Feb '21

28 Feb '21

greetings netizens... I have a question regarding the use of a wacom tablet, specifically key presses that are mapped via GNOME settings on the Wacom section or if somehow wacom is the culprit in this case. I'm uncertain if the issue is as a result of mapping the keys in the GNOME settings or if Inkscape needs some time to interpret those mapped keys. So to get into it, I have mapped the three buttons in GNOME settings to use inkscape shortcuts and they work a good 85% of the time. The issue is that crops up is that, sometimes when pressing those keys Inkscape brings up another dialogue box, which I'm guessing is Inkscape interpreting me pressing those shortcuts keys and me getting the wrong resulting command (the dialogue box). Here is the exact scenario. I have a set of multiple images that need to be clipped, duplicated, and converted to a bitmap then continuing along the task of clipping those images from the various areas on the image. How can I avoid this happening? Or is the only way to press the mapped keys at a slower rate?

Updates to my SVG Clickmap Landmines page
by Steve Litt 28 Feb '21

28 Feb '21

Hi all, As you know, SVG clickmaps inside of HTML are complicated, so I made my "SVG Clickmap Landmines" page in 2017. Yesterday I completed some updates to this page, to clear up some ambiguities, add some needed content, and update which browsers do what. The URL is: http://www.troubleshooters.com/codecorn/svg_clickmaps/landmines.htm Hopefully this will prove useful for some of you.

Calling German-speaking Inkscape Community members (and those who don't mind to communicate in English with German Linux users)!
by Maren Hachmann 01 Feb '21

01 Feb '21

Hi everyone, the Inkscape project is going to host a virtual booth/stand at the Chemnitzer Linuxtage, on March 13 and 14 this year! We have already gathered a small booth team of 4, possibly 5, but the CLT (Chemnitzer Linuxtage) are all-day events and we could use your help answering user questions about how to work with the program, how to contribute to it and about what is going on in the Inkscape community. We might even do some short, up to 20min topic-focused sessions, if someone would like to organize (one of) them. So, if you're a developer, a forum member, a regular user support provider in our chat channels, an Inkscape translator, or are contributing to the project more or less regularly in any other way, and you have some time available to spend helping the Inkscape project on that weekend in March, please introduce yourself at the GitLab issue report where we're discussing the event organization! We would also be glad to have someone on board from any of the maker labs or similar communities, who are proficient in helping with maker topics, or who can demo something interesting in a short session (or both :) ). Or if you'd like to present the top 10 Inkscape extensions that people must know about, or do a quick drawing session, or want to tell people how to compile Inkscape and get started with development or ... whatever you can think of. ****************** Please get in contact with us as soon as possible and find more info at https://gitlab.com/inkscape/vectors/general/-/issues/192 Let us know how you can help make the booth an interesting place for visitors to drop by! ****************** We're going to have a meeting with all those interested in about a week, so it would be good to hear from you before that. I'm going to announce the meeting time in a separate message. Hope to see you - and if you are not able to join us at the booth, consider visiting us there! Kind Regards Maren

Dear Kolbjørn, All downloads are the same, the contain all languages. Your computer is asking for Norwegian when it loads Inkscape. But you can override this in the preferences. Best place to ask for help is chat.inkscape.org as I'm just a website administrator. Good luck!

Intermittent unexpected behavior with text vertical spacing
by Steve Litt 12 Dec '20

12 Dec '20

Hi all, I have version "1.0.1 (unknown)" on Void Linux that's within 2 days of being up to date. I have a text item whose vertical spacing is 0.8 lines. When I re-edit this text item, move somewhere within it, and press the Enter key, instead of splitting into two lines spaced 0.8 lines apart, it writes the second half of the line right on top of the first half. This happens only under certain circumstances which I haven't yet identified. This slows me down tremendously because I can't just dupe a text item and edit into something similar. Because it becomes unreadable, my ability to make it readable again depends on my using enough undos to undo it, rather than deleting the added newline. It REALLY slows me down. I've attached a file whose dark red text has this problem. Has anybody else seen this behavior? What circumstances make it happen? Is there a workaround? Thanks, Steve SteveT Steve Litt Autumn 2020 featured book: Thriving in Tough Times http://www.troubleshooters.com/thrive
