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.

pattern fill
by Marco A. S. Netto 21 Feb '07

21 Feb '07

Hi, I'm trying to draw some boxes with pattern fills similar to those we can find in Xfig. If I understood, we have to manually create a pattern by using the option "Objects to Pattern" and after apply to my boxes. The problem is that I'm having problems to create those patterns. Depending on the size of the boxes, the result is very different.... Has anybody tried to draw boxes with those patterns we can find in Xfig? Or know how to do this? (I'm using inkscape 0.44) Thanks, Marco

selecting rectangles making me crazy!
by Tyler Smith 20 Feb '07

20 Feb '07

Hi, I'm a new user of Inkscape 0.44.1 as distributed with Debian Etch. I'm very impressed with the features it provides, but some basics are escaping me. I'm working with a postscript file, converted via pstoedit -pta original.ps output.svg I import output.svg into Inkscape with no problem, and the image displays the image and text labels exactly as it should. I need to mark up the image with transparent boxes. I draw the boxes using the rectangle tool. However, I when I try to reselect them it gets very weird. Clicking on a rectangle actually selects a different rectangle, lower on the image than where the mouse is pointing. The other rectangle has a dotted outline (bounding box?) that is many times bigger than the rectangle itself. I managed to fix this before by playing with the snapping options in document properties, but I am not able to repeat that early success. When I open the shapes tutorial I can draw and select boxes normally, and the dotted outlines appear to (almost) exactly match the outline of the rectangles themselves. Please, what am I doing wrong? This is very frustrating, and I'm sure it's something really simple that I'm missing. -- Regards, Tyler Smith
