When to use onclick(evt) and when to use onclick(event)?
by Steve Litt 25 Apr '17

25 Apr '17

Hi all, Within a <svg> element in my HTML body, I can use onclick(evt), as exemplified below: ============================================================ <svg width="500px" viewBox="0 15 80 30"> <circle id=circ1 r="6" cx="10" cy="30" onclick="top.doit(evt)" /> </svg> ============================================================ I can change the "evt" to "event" and it still works, but if I change it to anything else, for example "e", it fails. Is evt some kind of reserved word within SVG? By the way, if an item in HTML itself (like a paragraph) has an onclick, you need to remove the "top." and only "event" will work. I have the rudiments of a clickable map using SVG, CSS and Javascript, and am starting to build it into something useful.

Clickable SVG map
by Steve Litt 24 Apr '17

24 Apr '17

Hi all, I've read that, when making an HTML page with a clickable map (a map of the states in America, for instance), it's very doable in SVG. Has anybody done this? If so, did you need to copy and paste the svg code into the HTML, or were you able to work from an image imported with the <img src="mymap.svg"/> tag? Did you need to do something to tell the CSS in your HTML doc's head that you meant #rect1234 in the <css> tree? Does anyone know of a document that unambiguously tells exactly how to do it?

Leaflet does a fairly good job of showing a map which can be constructed from svg paths, you can choose to have open street map tiles or not.

Do we have a map sample on inkscape website? I mean... can we promote our tool as an app that does this? Do you guys think more people would be interested?

Snap Version 0.92.1, Extensions: ImportError: no module named site
by Daniel Johannsen 24 Apr '17

24 Apr '17

Hi, first let me say that this new effect "Perspective/Envelope" is totally awesome. I was waiting for this for a very long time! But with the latest snap installation, i am having trouble to run extensions. No matter if i try to run my own extension or the already included extensions, when i hit the "Apply" Button i get the message: "Inkscape has received additional data from the script executed. The script did not return an error, but this may indicate the results will not be as expected. ImportError: No module named site" I guess that some paths don't point at the right location, e.g., the path to site.py. Maybe something is messed up with the snap and standard file locations? Is there a way to figure out, if my guess is right? Then where to change settings for the extensions to work again? (I am running ubuntu 16.10.)

open file into existing instance from terminal?
by Orm Finnendahl 07 Apr '17

07 Apr '17

Hi, is there a way to send an existing inkscape instance a file-open message (with the document name as argument) from a terminal or another process? It seems, the dbus interface would be the way to go but the API documentation only mentions a command to open a new document (which works BTW). I'm on linux and inkscape is bzr-inkscape 0.91 -- Orm

2 entries for 1 object in XML Editor
by brynn 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

Hi Friends, I was just using the XML Editor to try and help someone in a forum. Completely unrelated to their problem, I noticed that 2 entries are being created for each object, in the XML. I've never noticed that before. Have I inadvertently changed some option that might be causing this? Because wouldn't this kind of behavior result in file size that's double what it's supposed to be? Just making up a test file, in case anyone wants it. And doing that, I noticed that it's only happening if the Fill and Stroke dialog is open. After closing the F/S dialog however, it's still happening. Wow, and sometimes adding 3 or 4 entries for each object! But if F/S dialog is not open when the file is opened, it doesn't happen. At first I thought this was something I did wrong. But with F/S dialog being involved, now I wonder if it's a bug? I searched in LP and didn't find anything similar. But there's a good chance any existing report uses terminology that I don't understand or recognize. Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit, Inkscape 0.92.1, 64-bit, exe installer. I can test in 0.92pre3, 64-bit, 7z version and 0.91, 32-bit, 7z version, if it would be helpful. What else can I give you, if necessary? Hhmm, another new file doesn't show this. Curious. Well, fwiw :-) Thanks, brynn
