ATTN: Change to list access settings
by Bryce Harrington 01 May '06

01 May '06

This mailing list has now been modified to restrict posting only to list members. The proposal for this change was made on the "linear transparency in bitmap patterns" thread. I said I would make the change if a dozen people voted in favor, and no one voted to oppose. These conditions were met decisively this evening, and so the change has taken affect. The motivation for this change is that it will make it more difficult for spammers to send spam to the list. The one main downside to this change is that it will also make it more difficult for Inkscape newbies to post questions. This was the original reason why we did not set the list up this way. However, we have comment forms on the website that people could use if they really did not wish to join. Also, the inconvenience to users not on the list needs to be weighed against the inconvenience of users *on* the list. As well, while this may inconvenience some users, this type of mailing list setting is becoming more and more common, so should not be too surprising to new users. In addition, non-list members benefit from this change because the online list archives will have less spam, and thus will be easier to navigate through. If anyone has any concerns, then now is the time to speak up! Otherwise, this change will become permanent as of this time tomorrow. Thanks, Bryce

Re: [Inkscape-user] linear transparency in bitmap patterns. Is it possible?

Gradients with transparency in a bitmap can be used and created with gradient editor in Gimp. I was able to recreate the effects on your gnome link using it (background color to transparency over it). I vote in favor of closing the list to non-subscribers also. imigital On Sun, 30 Apr 2006, Gilberto wrote: > Date: Sun, 30 Apr 2006 13:49:28 -0500 > From: Gilberto <stoet@...679...> > Reply-To: inkscape-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net > To: inkscape-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [Inkscape-user] linear transparency in bitmap patterns.

Exporting a selection as vector graphics
by Jani Patokallio 30 Apr '06

30 Apr '06

Greetings, I'd like to export everything inside a selection box into a new SVG (or EPS) file, so that any objects straddling the selection box are clipped to fit. A more concrete example is taking a section of a large map, so any streets etc not fully in the selection are clipped to the edges. The best I've found so far is doing Path -> Intersection with the selection box and the overlapping object selected, which clips the overlapping object to fit in the box, but this has to be done individually for every single object with a new box every time and is rather tedious to say the least. Also, the standard EPS export obeys the paper size blindly, with the double problem of ignoring the actual size of content on the page if it's under the page size (so you get lots of unnecessary whitespace) but also not clipping anything over the edges (so I can't use this trick to clean up either). Is there any way of doing this neatly? Currently, I'm doing export bitmap by selection and then converting the resulting PNG into EPS, but obviously going through a bitmap format causes huge files and rather defeats the point of using SVG in first place... Cheers, -jani
