>Fill the circle with the picture, that should do the trick. I tried this the other day, it's nice, but there are a few steps to get it right. 1. Drop the picture into the document, move it over the object and resize it so it lines up how you like it 2. Edit -> Object(s) to Pattern (Alt-I) 3. Delete the picture 4. Select the object, and assign the new Pattern as the fill. If you move the filled object around, the pattern moves with it. If you select all the nodes and move them, it doesn't. This is quite a cool effect. Is there a way of moving or rotating the pattern once it's in the object? __________________________________________________ Phil Hibbs | Capgemini | Rotherham Technical Consultant __________________________________________________ This message contains information that may be privileged or confidential and is the property of the Capgemini Group.

Loading a SVG file with included SVGs
by Joost De Cock 28 Sep '05

28 Sep '05

Hello list, I'm loading SVGs into Inkscape that included small SVG icons with a relative path. (It's a network diagram generated by Grapviz in SVG format using SVG shapefiles for the nodes). When I load them in Inkscape, the icons (shapefiles) aren't loaded. I've looked around, but all help seemed to be geared toward how to actually do something usefull with the program (and that's quite reasonable) but I couldn't find an answer to my problem. So where's the 'Load external referenced SVG files by default' option, or something similar. Here's a snippet of the SVG code: <g id="node7" class="node"><title>roupubli.office.astrid.be</title> <clipPath id="mypathcustomroupubli.office.astrid.be"> <polygon points="286,783 214,783 214,855 286,855 286,783 "/> </clipPath> <image xlink:href="shapefiles/router.svg" width="72px" height="72px" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet" x="214" y="783" clip-path="url(#mypathcustomroupubli.office.astrid.be)"/> <text text-anchor="middle" x="250" y="824">roupubli.office.astrid.be</text> </g> Loading this in ksvg (the KDE svg viewer) does load all external images, but doesn't allow me to pan. Thanks for any pointers, joost

Many keyboard shortcuts do not work as explained in the tutorial: Thanks, I added your report to this bug: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=978017&group_id=9… The eventual solution is to implement customizable keymappings and to ship custom keymaps for various platforms/localizations. Some of your issues may be resolved in a simpler way, but I don't have OSX to work on that. -- bulia byak Inkscape. Draw Freely. http://www.inkscape.org

Inkscape on MacOS X: great, but...
by H.Fagard 27 Sep '05

27 Sep '05

Dear all, I'm a new user of Inkscape and I've just subscribed to this list. I have installed Inkscape 0.42.2 on MacOS X using the standalone installer, no problem. If the developers read this message: thanks and congratulations for this wonderful software, and for the easy installation under MacOS X. I have already used several vector graphics applications: - MacDraw (later renamed as "Draw"), limited features, but incredibly user-friendy. - Corel Draw : very powerful, but Corel stopped supporting the Mac a couple of years ago. - Freehand : I bought it several months ago but never managed to get comfortable with this software, the user interface is not very intuitive IMHO and I have been having a hard time sometimes to achieve very simple tasks. I have started learning Inkscape with the basic tutorial at <http://www.inkscape.org/doc/basic/tutorial-basic.html>, and my first impression is very good, I find it quite user-friendly while being very powerful. I have nevertheless noted a few issues that may be specific to the MacOS port: 1. The characters on the status bar, and especially the pointer position at the bottom left, are almost unreadable: really tiny, and the font used makes it even worse. Same problem for the rulers numbers. The font used also makes the menus items not very nice to read, although they are readable because they are bigger. I haven't found a way to change this in the preferences. This is my major criticism as it makes the pointer coordinates and rulers unusable. 2. Many keyboard shortcuts do not work as explained in the tutorial: - Alt+Tab will select one object after the other in the drawing, not navigate amongst windows. But Ctrl-Tab will do it so this is OK. - Shift + arrow keys on a selected object moves it by 10 times the default move, as explained. But "Shift+<" doesn't allowing a 10 times resizing, because on a Mac keyboard Shift+< is equivalent to > which scales the object up by 2 px. - Alt+arrow keys does the same as "arrow keys": movement is always 2 px, whatever the zoom factor is. - Alt+> and Alt+< do the same as > and <, whatever the zoom factor is. - "Selecting under" with Alt+click doesn't work (Alt+click zooms up!). 3. Out of the three zooming actions in the Command bar: - zoom to fit selection in window (3) - zoom to fit drawing in window (4) - zoom to fit page in window (5) only one keyboard shortcut (5) works as expected (but clicking on the icon works for all three actions). Best regards, Hervé
