texture extension
by Andrew Kurn 02 Aug '18

02 Aug '18

This is to announce a new extension. It generates random blobs in a rectangle for use in a texture. There are controls for the roundness, sharpness, branchiness, number of blobs, and size. Hope you like it. If you can think of more controls to add, drop me a line. Andrew

Why is inkscape no longer able to handle jpeg files
by Bernhard Kleine 30 Jul '18

30 Jul '18

I have win7-64 and are running inkscape .92, gimp, lightroom and many other programs. The jpeg files from lightroom 4.4 are no longer accepted by inkscape. Everytime I want to load a jpeg it throws an error. Very strange! Once converted by gimp to png they are accepted. Most propably this is a bug. Please let know what to provide to report the error correctly. BTW Where do I find the saved files during a shutdown?

custom objects?
by Bernie Cosell 30 Jul '18

30 Jul '18

I'm a newcomer to Inkscape so apologies if this is obvious... is it possible to set up a bunch of "custom" objects? i can do it by putting them in a separate window and copying them, but it'd be handy to have them tucked in below box, circle, star, etc. i was thinking about this because i just recently did that in visio {i think they're called "stencils" there}. thanks {and kudos:Inkscape is really quite amazing} /Bernie\ Bernie Cosell bernie@...3350... com — Too many people, too few sheep —
