Still more update. I opened a new file. Used the box tool to make a box. Copied and pasted it. ...and got a nice .png file on my desktop again. And the copy pasted in Inkscape was an image. --- On Wed, 2/24/10, Elwin Estle <chrysalis_reborn@...12...> wrote: From: Elwin Estle <chrysalis_reborn@...12...> Subject: Re: bug?

To: inkscape-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net Date: Wednesday, February 24, 2010, 9:38 AM I have this oddball behavior going on with copy/paste. I am running 0.47 on a mac with OS X Leopard. I have a path that I am trying to copy and do "paste in place". However, when I paste the path, what I am getting is an IMAGE, not a path, I can't edit it. It has a white background, which shouldn't be there, and it doesn't paste in place. It pastes off to the left of where it should be. I am wanting to paste it in place on a different layer, but even pasting it on the same layer creates an image, instead of a copy of the original path. How I determined that it was an image was to go into the XML editor and watched what happened when I did the paste. Sure enough, the XML editor states that the copy is an image, not a path. What is going on? Have I changed a setting somewhere by accident? Or is this a bug?

suggestion for guide creator extension
by unknown＠example.com 20 Feb '10

20 Feb '10

Hi, I LOVE the guides creator extension, it's almost perfect for what I want to do ..... the only issue I'm having is that the file I need to make has 11 vertical stickers. Would it be possible to change the 'pull down' menu to a 'write in' field which I could change to however many I need? That would make it perfect! Thanks, Dale

Inkscape 0.48 About Screen Contest - slight delay
by Joshua A. Andler 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Hey all, I was looking forward to announcing the contest beginning today... however we will have a slight delay before it begins. The reason behind the delay... we need some new builds with new features for our users! So, would packagers for win32 and OSX be willing to put some builds together soon for our users? Please respond if you will be able to help with this. Cheers, Josh

Inkscape and automatic art
by donn 10 Feb '10

10 Feb '10

Hi, I found a website that lists a lot of very fine free software for art and design (http://www.libregraphicsworld.org/ ) and in that list I found one app that is wonderful... It's called contextfree (you can apt-get it!) and it's all command-line based. You write a small script kind of thing and then use the cfdg command to make a png -- and here's the coolth -- or an SVG! (http://www.contextfreeart.org/index.html) How would one go about interfacing this into Inkscape? I can see a really nice extension arising out of it; a little preview, a link to a text editor and a Render button. While you are here, there's another generator app that takes it into the 3rd dimension. This one is called 'structure-synth' (also apt-gettable). Imagine if that could also be brought into Inkscape! (although it does not supply svg output :( ) (http://structuresynth.sourceforge.net/) \d -- Fonty Python and Things! -- http://otherwise.relics.co.za/wiki/Software
