Modify clipping object without releasing the clip
by microUgly 20 Mar '07

Is it possible to modify a clipping or masking object without releasing it? I know how to edit the objects that are clipped/masked, just not the object that does clipping/masking.

Easy way to push attributes up?
by Jeffrey Brent McBeth 20 Mar '07

20 Mar '07

Is there any easy way to push attributes up the heirarchy? Say I have 20 objects in a group that all are drawn with the same stroke-fill-etc, and I would like the group to now have those attributes (so the underlings all inheret them instead of have them explicitly). Is there any way to ask inkscape to push these common attributes up the ladder? Also, one big deal with GTK+ used to be the ability to key bind anything in an appliction. I can't find how to assign a keybinding to the "Delete Node" button in the XML-Editor (my favorite place to live in this app) Jeff -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hofstadter's Law states: It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, >From the lack of replies to my previous email, am I to assume that there is no way of turning off anti-aliasing on fonts or objects in Inkscape? Best, Chris. ------------------- chris@...2138... http://mccormick.cx

perspective and numpy stuff
by Donn 17 Mar '07

17 Mar '07

Hello, fresh thread. I installed numpy from source (*) and put a link to it into the inkscape extensions folder. Okay, so the "no module named numpy" errors have gone, but now I get this: ** (inkscape:4250): WARNING **: Format autodetect failed. The file is being opened as SVG. ** (inkscape:4251): WARNING **: Format autodetect failed. The file is being opened as SVG. ** (inkscape:4252): WARNING **: Format autodetect failed. The file is being opened as SVG. ** (inkscape:4253): WARNING **: Format autodetect failed. The file is being opened as SVG. So, no actual result, just more mystery! /d (*)http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1369&package_id=175103

I don't know about Ubuntu but on Debian python-numeric and python-numpy are two different packages. I'm pretty sure the latter is the one that you want as NumPy is a replacement for the older Numeric which is no longer maintained.

by Bryce Harrington 16 Mar '07

May 4-6 is the Libre Graphics Meeting in Montreal. Mark it on your calendars! http://www.libregraphicsmeeting.org/ We hope to gather a huge number of Inkscape developers and users to talk face to face about Inkscape, new features, ideas, and so on. See It would be useful to know who all will be there. Can you email me off-list if you are thinking about attending? (Sponsorship will be available, so if cost is an issue let me know.)

Perspective 0.45 and numpy
by Donn 16 Mar '07

16 Mar '07

Hi, wondering how to get 'numpy' installed on my Kubuntu Dapper system so I can muck about with perspective tool. I installed 'python-numeric' via apt-get but that puts 'Numeric' into the system-wide Python directory, not the Inkscape one. I have not had much luck with making links from /usr/local/share/inkscape/extensions to /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Numeric either. I also remarked: self.q['y'] = docheight - self.q['y'] - self.q['height'] in summersnight.py as per Tav's suggestion. Any help? /d -- When you allow legends to rule your life, your world is based on fiction -- Segio Aragones (Groo the Wanderer Number 99)
