pattern-fills scale according to former transformations of an object
by Henning Lorenz 30 Nov '06

30 Nov '06

How do I reset former transformations/scaling of an object? When I fill an object with a pattern, it becomes scaled according to earlier scaling applied to the object. However, I want several objects which have different "scaling-histories" to fill with the same pattern in the same scale. How can I do this? Thanks! Henning

pattern mismatch
by Henning Lorenz 29 Nov '06

29 Nov '06

I try to construct a regularly spaced, diagonally striped pattern. Beginning with on diagonal line in the upper left corner, "tile clone" produces a mismatch between the columns and the rows. When I construct the pattern by hand and use it on an object I get similar mismatches between the pattern-tiles. An example to visualize the problem: I fetched this pattern from openclipart.org: http://openclipart.org/clipart//special/patterns/pattern-pinstripes-diagona… An object filled with this pattern looks fine. Now, convert with "pattern to objects" (which I did to change the colour) and convert back with "objects to pattern". An object filled with the resulting pattern shows the mismatch. Then I changed the colour in the source, but there is a principal question: Is something wrong and if so, what? And why doesn't this affect the "pattern-pinstripes-diagonal" pattern? Maybe I just missed an important point in constructing patterns in inkscape? Cheers, Henning

cross compilation
by sylvain 29 Nov '06

29 Nov '06

Hi,I know it may not be the best mailing list to do that but as i heard you know how to do it and i didn't find resources elsewhere, i'll ask it here.It seems that you manage to cross compile programs using gtk and autotools, so as i try to cross-compile c++/gtkmm programs, i'd like to know if someone could contact me to give me some resources and help about cross-compiling such programs. I apologies for the inconvenience.And thank you. _________________________________________________________________ Essayez Live.com, votre nouvelle page d'accueil !

Just this week I was made aware of this problem by a friend: creating a guide management UI has been added to my to do list!

Is there a possibility to delete all guides in a drawing with one command? It's rather time-consuming to pull some 50 guides back onto the rulers, one by one. Thanks! Henning

NEW: grow/shrink selection in node tool
by bulia byak 25 Nov '06

25 Nov '06

* You can grow or shrink node selection by hovering the mouse pointer over a node and using mousewheel (up = grow, down = shrink) or the keys PageUp (grow) and PageDown (shrink). Growing adds the closest unselected node to the selection; shrinking deselects the farthest selected node. There are two modes that differ by how the closest/farthest nodes are chosen: o Spatial selection (Mousewheel, PageUp/PageDown): distances to nodes are measured directly, regardless of which subpath a node belongs to. o Linear selection (Ctrl+Mousewheel, Ctrl+PageUp/Ctrl+PageDown): node distances are measured along the path, and only the nodes belonging to the same subpath as the hovered node are considered (i.e. other subpaths are never selected). This technique is convenient for quickly selecting an area in a complex path starting from a center - for example, for node sculpting. Let me know if you think linear mode will be more often used than spatial - I can swap the shortcuts so that the more common mode can be used without Ctrl. -- bulia byak Inkscape.

Activating? Extensions
by Magnus Gunnarsson 24 Nov '06

24 Nov '06

Dear everybody, I have read about all the wonders that so called extensions can add to Inkscape, but nowhere can I find any descriptions of what extensions are, or how to find/install/activate them. I have downloaded the Mac distribution (0.44), and there is a folder called extensions and a set of files with interesting names, so I think that the extensions are there. However, I see no traces of them in the user interface. What are extensions? What extensions are there? Where can I find them? How do I install/activate/use them? Best regards, MagnusG!
