Rubber stamp effect
by sunil joshi 10 Nov '05

10 Nov '05

I am working on a design - and I would like to make it look a bit "rubber stamp" like. I know this can be done in GIMP, but could this "worn out" effect be potentially done in Inkscape itself? __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail - PC Magazine Editors' Choice 2005 http://mail.yahoo.com

Missing Connector Tool
by Dave Holmes 08 Nov '05

08 Nov '05

I'm using Inkscape 0.42.2 on Windows XP. For some reason, I can't seem to find the connector tool. In the reference documentation ( http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/ch02s01.html) the connector is shown between the gradient tool and the eye dropper tool; however, in the application that I'm using, it's not there. If I go to the inkscape preferences > tools dialog, I cannot find the connector tool either. Does the tool not exist in this version? If so, which version should I be using? I've attached a screenshot of my version of inkscape for reference. Thanks for the help, - Dave

Move gradient with
by Michael Moore 07 Nov '05

When I move objects in my drawing, the gradient stays behind. I don't think it used to do this. Is there a way to make the gradeint move with the rest of the drawing?

You may need to increase letterspacing a bit for it >to look good. Thanks for the suggestion, but it doesn't look as nice as the text on top. Increasing the letterspacing creates a slightly better result, but this is not exactly the solution I hoped for. (I was looking for a behaviour similar to CorelDraw, where it is possible to have the upper side of the text on the path.) Also, increasing letterspacing does not seem to work when the text is already on the path. And increasing letterspacing before putting it on the path makes it difficult to predict the final result (and is a lot of trial-and-error work).

Inkscape 0.43pre2
by Ted Gould 07 Nov '05

https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93438&package_id=991… It is likely that this will be the last prerelease for Inkscape 0.43. If packagers can make packages to ensure the completeness of the package, and if users could make sure it is stable, we'll hopefully be ready to release 0.43! Please submit comments quickly, this prerelease will be a short lived one.

document boundaries
by Jiri Barton 05 Nov '05

05 Nov '05

Hi everyone, I created a document a la inkscape tutorial in inkscape (you can find the links below). I used File | New | no_borders. The problem is this document displays right only in inkscape, at least on my computer. What is wrong? In all the other viewers/editors on my installation, there is only like a small section of the document; this includes inkview (!), scribus, and ksvg (konqueror). When I export the svg to PDF (which was my intention) or PS, the result is the same - only the same old section from the first sixth by the first half of the document. Now, get this. When I view the inkscape tutorial (just any) by inkview, it shows okay. However, it does not show well in scribus or ksvg, nor is the resulting PDF or PS nice at all (missing some images and texts). My questions are, what should I do to make my document view ok in inkview, like the tutorial does? What page, format, or is there another trick? Is there a good paved road to converting an inkscape's document to PDF, so I can show it to other people (on Windows, for example)? Thank you very much in advance. Jiri http://www.hosting4u.cz/jbar/videostop2.svg http://www.hosting4u.cz/jbar/videostop2.pdf P.S. Kubuntu 5.10 Linux on AMD64 Inkscape 0.42 or CVS (2005-10-30) - makes no difference

text style
by Karol Krenski 05 Nov '05

05 Nov '05

Hello list, Would it make sens to include text scale information via Edit->Paste Style? I am talking about XML editor attribute: transform scale(X,Y) I understand that most objects shouldn't have scale information contained in their style information (so that it doesn't automatically scale the objects that will have this style applied), but isn't text different? How else can I have my text look like other text in the document? Isn't this what most people would need/expect? Karol

Rouge Lines
by Bungee 04 Nov '05

04 Nov '05

Sometimes while generating complex drawings I find that I have accidentally created zero width lines. The first I know of this is when printing the document. These lines are quite invisible on-screen unless you *massively* zoom in, and of course know where they are in the first place. They are also very hard to catch and delete. My feeling is that they only show up when printing as the printer has a minimum line width. Would it be possible for Inkscape to incorperate a 'cleanup' feature where such lines/paths can be identified and removed? -- Bungee
