Cell Display?
by Chris Spencer 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

I'm trying to compose a small comic, and I'd like to create the panels and layout in Inkscape. Is there any way to take an arbitrary closed path (not necessarily a square) and use a raster image to fill it? The closest thing I could find was to import all the raster images, convert them to patterns, fill the shapes using those patterns, then rescale the shapes while toggling on/off the "Transform shape along with object" button until the patterns fit correctly. This whole process is extremely awkward and time consuming, and it would really be convenient to just fill a shape using an image, without first having to import/pattern/transform an image. Is there an easier way? Thanks, Chris

Inkscape PDF output
by Tobias Eitel ... unterwegs ... 05 Feb '06

Hi, I have a question about PDF output. When you look at the screenshot http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/8774/bildschirmfoto40ji.png you can see the inkscape window on the left side and on the right side the corresponding pdf. I created the pdf with inkscape 0.43 on Debian linux with the "Save as pdf" command. As you can see it's not very nice. When I "Save as ps" without converting text to path, I can import the ps into scribus and create a pdf from there. Then at least the text is antialiased, but the rest of the drawing still looks ugly. My question: Is there currently any way to create antialiased graphics / text in the pdf? Is there any software that does nice svg-->pdf conversion? Linux or windows, I don't care, I just need a good result. For now I have found a workaround: I export as hi-res png then I can use imagemagick to convert to pdf, but I would prefer a solution which does destroy the vector information of the original file.

how do i clear the settings for a shape
by s a 05 Feb '06

I have added a star shape to my drawing and changed the number of nodes, size and rotation, to a point where it no longer looks like a star. Now when ever I add a new star shape to my drawing, it remembers my previous edits. How do i clear this sticky setting and revert back to the default shape thanks sanubolu

Default line width
by Abrolag 04 Feb '06

04 Feb '06

Is there any way to set a default line width? Inkscape seems to always wants to use zero width, which isn't very useful, especially for line and bezier drawing! It also doesn't seem to remember the width from one line to the next. Is this intended, or a bug? Using v 0.43 on Mdk 10.1 -- No Sig

Object manager
by Aaron Meder 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

Hi there... I used to work with Corel Draw and I would like to get started with Inkscape, because it looks very promising and is good open source software. One problem I have is that I can't find something like an "object manager". This is a nice sidebar in Corel that show you all your objects in the current document (all rectangles, circles, texts you've drawn and written). If you click on one of them it selects it on the drawing. I hope you understand, what I mean. Why do I need something like this? I've you've got a quite complex drawing (10 layers on top of each other), how can I select the 5. layer of them? Maybe I just don't understand something here ;-) I hope you can help me :) Greetings Aaron -- meder, aaron - www.telltec.ch
