problem importing ps
by manouchk 09 Sep '05

Hi, I'm trying to import ps from inkscape, it does not work here. I use mandriva and version of inkscape inkscape-0.42-0.1.102mdk. Is there any bug fixes related to this in version 0.42.2. Is it possible to read directly the changelog of inkscape for different version? it seems to run pstoedit that isn't not able to convert from ps to svg (I tried on the command line. When tenting the importation it gives a popup window with this message : pstoedit: version 3.40 / DLL interface 108 (build Mar 19 2005 - release build) : Copyright (C) 1993 - 2005 Wolfgang Glunz Warning: some types of raster images in the input file cannot be converted if the output is sent to standard output and then it says that there is an error : /usr/share/inkscape/extensions/sk2svg.sh: line 9: /home/manu/tmp/tmp.zNhkh10874/sk2svg10872.svg: No such file or directory (probably because the svg file was not created) (By the way to convert from ps to svg I'm using right now pstoedit to convert to .sk and then load the .sk file in skconvert and export to svg, a bit unpractical!!)

Another Inkscape Book update
by Tavmjong Bah 09 Sep '05

09 Sep '05

Hi, I've once again updated my book "A Guide to Inkscape": http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/index.php The book should now cover almost all (if not all "non-experimental") features of Inkscape v0.42. The biggest changes are the completion of the Tiling and Tracing chapters as well as adding an index. This is still a draft. I plan on adding more examples and of course the new v0.43 features when they have stabilized. There are a few things that I don't fully understand. Perhaps someone could enlighten me: 1. Find dialog: What is the use of the "Text" entry box. I could not get it do anything. 2. Gradient handles: Is there a good use for gradient handles that snap to each other? 3. Text and Font dialog, Spell checker: Does this actually work? Thanks, Tav

Hi there, how can I setup %subj% (Alt+B) on 0.42.2? Export resolution from preferences doesn't affect that. Michal

Pen shortcut, xywh precision
by bulia byak 08 Sep '05

There are two RFEs that I want to do something about but not before I hear people's opinions: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1167787&group_id=9… I agree that Pen deservers a better F-key shortcut than Shift+F6. But I also need the freehand drawing (F6) very often and don't want to demote it. Any ideas? http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1165049&group_id=9… Are there others who would like to see 0.001 precision in X/Y/W/H, or is this a too specialized need? -- bulia byak Inkscape.

Exactly. That's what I was in support of, as opposed to having both significant English and Spanish traffic on the same list. --------------------------------------- Traducción de Babel Fish Sí. Exactamente. Eso es cuál estaba en ayuda, en comparación con tener tráfico inglés y español significativo en la misma lista. -------------------------------------- Que trabajo me están dando hace falta más gente si ya somos tres. ----------------------------------------- Traducción de Babel Fish In English: That work is giving me more people make lack if we are already three.

espero con alegria noticias

Very well, all conditions are met, and it appears all comments voiced have been in support of the proposal. I've submitted the request to SF to have inkscape-user-es@ added. It should become available within the day. > Probably after this is announced as a news item, more people will be > interested. Once the list is available, I'll put out the official announcement, however I would encourage the new members of this list to take the duty to promote it and encourage other Spanish speaking users to join. I think seeing news in the native language will be the most effective way of building the community. Also, if speakers of other languages would also like to have lists set up, and can meet the same conditions that were met for the Spanish list, I will create them as well. Bryce ----------------------------------------------------- Traducción de Babel Fish En español: Muy bien, se resuelven todas las condiciones, y aparece que todos los comentarios expresados han sido en la ayuda de la oferta. He sometido la petición a SF para hacer el inkscape-usuario-inkscape-user-es @ agregar. Debe llegar a estar disponible dentro del día. Probablemente después de que esto se anuncie como noticia, más gente estará interesada. Una vez que la lista esté disponible, pondré hacia fuera el aviso oficial, no obstante animaría a nuevos miembros de esta lista tomaran el deber para promoverlo y para animar a otros usuarios de habla hispana que ensamblen. Pienso que viendo noticias en la lengua materna sea la manera más eficaz de construir a la comunidad. También, si los altavoces de otras idiomas también quisieran hacer que las listas instalen, y puedo resolver las mismas condiciones que fueron resueltas para la lista española, las crearé también. Bryce --------------------------------------------------------------------- Traducción de Babel Fish In English: Thanks! I am very happy I wait for with alegria the news. Norberto Greetings ----------------------------------------------------- ¡Gracias! estoy muy feliz espero con alegria noticias. Saludos Norberto
