Scripting the fill style
by singlecell 23 Feb '07

23 Feb '07

Hi, Not sure if I should be bothering this list with this, but it may also be functionality currently missing from Inkscape (?) I'm using Inkscape to create interactive SVG drawings that allow the viewer colour in the picture, painting by numbers style (I've attached a simple test svg as an example). The (minor) problems encountered so far are: 1 - Inkscape uses the style attribute on each element to set the fill colour, and I have to manually go through each element changing them for my script code to work. Manipulating the style attribute in code would require parsing to preservation all the other style definitions. Is there any way to force inkscape to save style attributes of drawing elements as separate elements (as I have altered in the attached example)? 2 - should Inkscape treat script element as CDATA, as it currently treats it as a text node and replaces " with " etc.

Beginner's question regarding default_mm template/absolute svg sizes
by Klaus Malorny 23 Feb '07

23 Feb '07

Hi, sorry if this is FAQ, but I have searched Google and the archive and did not find a suitable answer. I have a small problem. I need to prepare some SVG files for the use with Apache's FOP. Inkscape seems to be the perfect tool for this, so I installed the latest version 0.45. However, I discovered that FOP measures a pixel as a 1/72 inch, while Inkscape measures a pixel as a 1/90 inch. Then I found out that there are default templates of various sizes, and one of them is "default_mm", which actually announces the image size in the <svg> element in absolute units. Unfortunately, whenever I resize the document size, Inkscape falls back into pixel mode when saving the file. What am I doing wrong? Is it an intended behaviour or is it a bug? I found a workaround, namely scaling the image by 72/90, however, I would prefer a clean solution. Thanks in advance for any answer. Klaus

how to group layers
by Adam Pearson 23 Feb '07

23 Feb '07

Sorry folks, I am sure this has been explained somewhere but I cannot find the "somewhere": I have an image that I want to scale bigger, how do I group the layers to do this so the full image and all its layers (only 4) are scaled the same? adam

Re: [Inkscape-user] saving an svg file As jpg

Seymour, Unfortunately a paragraph text one exported is not editable, as it is rasterized (it's then just a bunch of pixels as any other object). The best alternative would be exporting the graphics to PNG and then add the text in the Gimp.

33-hour Inkscape course.
by Denis Fernandez Cabrera 22 Feb '07

22 Feb '07

Hello, This is the first time I write in this list, so I apologize in advance if this is not the place to make these sort of public announcements. I searched the Inkscape web, but I wasn't able to find a better place to post it, and I think it may be interesting as a showcase of how Inkscape is being introduced in the graphic design community. Starting on April the 11th and until the 3rd of May, the Galizan government[1], through the Multimedia Center of Galiza[2], will be offering 33-hour courses on graphic design with Inkscape, within a series themed around the creation of multimedia content with Free Software[3]. I (Denís Fernández Cabrera, Gatonegro, [4]) will give the courses on Inkscape and GIMP, and Pedro Silva (Pedro Silva Franco, Goretoxo, [5]) will read a course on Blender. Denís.
