Intersecting lines
by iomeneandrei 19 Jul '10

19 Jul '10

Hi all, I have two intersecting lines drawn with bezier tool. I need a tool that split these lines at every intersection, but I'm not able to find the right tool in the path menu. My goal is that one you can see in this image (only one intersection): http://old.nabble.com/file/t20100/path.png Which kind of tools I could use?

Cannot get condensed fonts
by Daniel Carrera 18 Jul '10

18 Jul '10

Hello, For some reason Inkscape does not show me the condensed fonts on my system. I am running Ubuntu (Lucid) and I have some DejaVu condensed fonts installed: % ls /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/*Condensed* /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed-BoldOblique.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed-Bold.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed-Oblique.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerifCondensed-BoldItalic.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerifCondensed-Bold.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerifCondensed-Italic.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerifCondensed.ttf So I go to inkscape, select some text and click on the little "T" button to get additional font options. There, I select DejaVu Sans and under "Style" I see options like normal and Semi-Condensed, but I do not see Condensed. Does anyone know what's going on? Is it possible that DejaVu does not actually *have* condensed fonts and all the files that say "Condensed" are actually mislabeled and they are really only semi-condensed? Thanks for the help. -- Intolerant people should be shot.

Inkscape problem or broken svg ?
by Hadmut Danisch 16 Jul '10

16 Jul '10

Hi, have a look at http://de.wikibooks.org/wiki/SVG , there's an embedded SVG graphics. When I dowload this svg from http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikibooks/de/7/72/SVG_Buch01.svg I can use it with rsvg, but not with inkscape. inkscape just shows a completely empty canvas. (using inkscape 0.47.0 from ubuntu 10.04). Is that a problem of inkscape or a problem of the svg file? regards Hadmut

Inkscape just stop
by Krappies 15 Jul '10

15 Jul '10

Good day. Using inkscape about to finish a drawing I get a screen that say INKSCAPE HAS STOPED WORKING. I am fairly new to the program and enjoying it a lot, I have still got to learn a lot about the use but have made a lot of drawings that really impressed me. Another point how do you upgrade inkscape I can't seem to find it. I am running Windows 7 Professional and have seen that it is not on your list for compatible programs, could this be a problem I use to run on XP Professional with no problems at all and that was before the 4.8 upgrade. Hope you can help as I am trying to convince a lot of Corel users that this is the ultimate program to use. KInd regards. Krappies. Cell +27 76 822 3030 Fax +27 086 566 4555 Skype Krappies6

UniConvertor 1.1.5 release
by Igor Novikov 07 Jul '10

07 Jul '10

Hi all! sK1 Team are proud announcing UniConvertor 1.1.5 release. I think you remember UniConvertor is used by Inkscape as external set of import/export filters (like for CorelDRAW files, WMF etc.) A year of hard work, the masses of improvements and innovations, some multi platform feature in new version - detailed description you can find an excellent review of Alexandre Prokoudine: http://www.libregraphicsworld.org/articles.php?article_id=20 UniConvertor 1.1.5 for win32 is prepared as a standalone application bundle with some interesting feature. It includes small script which integrates external UniConvertor into Inkscape 0.47/0.48pre1 installation. So right now Inkscape win32 users can upgrade Inkscape import/export features without waiting for a new Inkscape version! Regards, Igor Novikov sK1 Project http://sk1project.org

weird behavior of gear renderer
by Elwin Estle 07 Jul '10

07 Jul '10

I make use of the gear renderer all the time and haven't run into this before, I don't think. I am running 0.47, downloaded just today from inkscape.org, on mac OS X Leopoard. When I render a gear, I cannot get the boolean operations to work with it. So if I want to make a "hole" in the center of the gear, I can't put a circle there and do a difference operation to cut a circle into the center of the gear. >From a 2D standpoint, this would not be a big deal, but since I import the gear .svg files into Blender for later 3D operations, this is something of a problem. What am I doing wrong, or what is it about the gear paths that is preventing this?

365 Sketches (Inkscape) show and opening talk video

Dogfighter raining down bones <http://www.flickr.com/photos/30654084@...1706.../4427943149> Image by lemasney <http://www.flickr.com/photos/30654084@...1706.../4427943149> via Flickr Hello, Most of you already know that I am doing a /sharism/ project called 365 Sketches, in which I present one digital image a day made using free and open source design software called Inkscape. The project is chronicled at both http://365sketches.org and http://facebook.com/365sketches and in other places -- If you've not heard of it, you're included here because I believe you might be interested. (Sharism is discussed here: http://freesouls.cc/essays/07-isaac-mao-sharism.html) I also recently got the opportunity to present the work as a rotating show (with Charles Viera) at Princeton Public Library (65 Witherspoon, Princeton, NJ), produced by Janie Hermann, and sponsored by the Princeton Arts Council. I gave a talk at the show's opening on the 21st of June to discuss its origins, processes, and reasoning. http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/8022746 is a new, clean audio recording from the talk synchronized with 160 brisk, clear, fully sized slides from the talk. Try full screen mode for the best effect. This is also a thank you note. Some of you were kind enough to attend the show opening and talk, some of you were kind enough to suggest it to others, and some of you mentioned that you were sorry to have missed it. Many of you have been so generous as to have purchased sketches from the show. Many of you were mentioned in the talk. Please share this email or the video with anyone who you think might enjoy it. You should know that the PPL show is on the second floor, free, will be changing over time, and will be up through the middle of September, 2010. I am showing alongside Charles Viera who I'm proud to share the space with. Charles and I overlap in a lot of fun ways in content and story, but are quite diverse in style and approach. Special thanks to Janie Hermann and Maria Evans, both of whom made the show possible. Thanks also to all of you for participating, if you have or if you would. Thanks!
