Bucket Fill
by Docsonic 22 Dec '07

22 Dec '07

I couldn't figure out why bucket fill didn't seem to work lately - I finally realised, the grow/shrink comes up as 100000 by default so it *does* work but the result is nothing like what is expected. Shouldn't the default for the grow/shrink be 0?

.46 enhancements
by Rob Antonishen 21 Dec '07

21 Dec '07

Just wanted to say "woo-hoo" for this one: "The Tile Clones dialog now uses the object's defined rotation axis (which can be freely moved by Selector tool and which is saved separately for each object) for all rotations (including both symmetry rotations and the Rotation tab rotations), scales, and flips. This renders unnecessary the previous workarounds where you had to group an object with another transparent object to affect how it's rotated by the clone tiler." from the .46 draft release notes. -Rob A>

My Scalable Vector Graphics Don't Scale
by Frank Gilroy 21 Dec '07

21 Dec '07

Hi Folks, This is probably a newbie kind of a question but I couldn't find the answer in the docs or FAQ after 30 minutes or so of looking. When I create an drawing and save it as .svg the image doesn't scale when I open it in Mozilla Firefox or embed it in HTML. Examples: The following image is in SVG format and scales when the browser is resized (I don't know what was used to create this SVG): http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/samples/canvas_norelief.svg The following image was created in Inkscape and doesn't scale: http://frankgilroy.com/uploaded_images/bootstrapgirl.svg Is there a simple setting that will update the XML in the SVG file to allow for this scaling?

Frank, it is an issue with the image viewer, not with the XML file itself. I use Opera - and it scales correctly in this browser. Another example is Gnome's default image viewer (in Fedora, I forgot its name). It doesn't scale the SVG, instead it stretches it (with interpolation) as if it were a raster image; at least this is what happens on my computer. Alex Railean

Re: [Inkscape-user] My Scalable Vector Graphics Don't Scale (Benjamin Huot)

Interesting. I'm assuming you're on a Mac. Safari on Windows doesn't scale my Inkscape created image either. And when I embed the images in HTML they don't scale in any browser I tried. I haven't tried it on my Mac yet, I'm on a work PC at the moment. Regardless it seems the images should scale when embedded in HTML. Does anyone know the XML tag that controls this? I noticed in the Map image referred to below that the dimensions of the image are specified but when I tried to manually remove them from the Inkspace generated XML it didn't help.

Re: [Inkscape-user] resizing page without resizing drawing?
by Tony Vigil 19 Dec '07

19 Dec '07

I've never seen graphics rescale when I change my page size. Opposite to what was originally asked, how would one force objects to scale with the page when the page size is changed? I see mention of a viewBox attribute. Is that something that is only available through manual editing of the XML, or does Inkscape have this feature per object? If Inkscape isn't capable of doing this (yet), could it be a useful feature? - Tony

match properties
by heathenx 19 Dec '07

19 Dec '07

Was thinking. In AutoCAD we have this feature called "Match Properties". Basically, if you have two different objects with different properties, say color, layer, or linetype, one can select the source object (the one with the properties that you want) and apply it's properties to the target object. Is there anything in Inkscape that is similar? heathenx
