In the mean time, I have a hack of a trouble to upgrade to 0.42 (loads of dependencies to also upgrade) All the best, Adrian -- This message was scanned for spam and viruses by BitDefender.

images for a magazine...
by Emanuel Glitia 22 Aug '05

22 Aug '05

hi. I'm writing an article about Inkscape for a Linux magazine in Romania, and I wanted to ask if I may put images from the website in the article showing off features. I would rather use those rather than screenshtos made by myself as they look better for the ammount of time I have. Also if there are inkscape artists here who would allow me to put artwork they made I would be highly interested. For artwork I would have text under the images in the form of "artwork_name - artist's name". Thank you... and big thanks to the creators... I didn't find how I could reach you directly: thank you for this great product! PS: I was just showing it off to my coleagues excited about the great "about"s you have/had, real artwork/desing... and about opening tutorials inside an inkscape document... has a great inpact and also great functionality (you can try it as you do it). PS2: If you think I might not showcase enough a particular great feature the program says please feel free to underline it to me so I don't forget it. Thank you!

Inkscape 0.42 on CD in German Magazine c't
by Colin Marquardt 21 Aug '05

21 Aug '05

Hi, the issue of the german computer mag c't with Inkscape 0.42 on CD is out (18/2005). The CD contains only the Windows version, but mentions that Linux and Mac OS X are available for download. It's listed on page 146, together with many other programs that are on the CD, like Scribus (which comes as a Linux binary FWIW). Cheers, Colin

Attaching path nodes to objects
by unknown＠example.com 19 Aug '05

19 Aug '05

Hi, I'm an Inkscape newbie; Is there any way I can attach a path node to something else (say, a shape)? so that, when the shape is moved, that node of the path moves with it, but the rest of the path stays put (so the shape of the path will change)? -- John.

Writing an extension
by Karol Kreński 18 Aug '05

18 Aug '05

I think I may have found the idea to resolve the issue I myself submitted: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1261413&group_id=9… I would like to try and write an extension in perl. I have never writen any plugin, but it looks possible for me to complete. After a quick look at perl dropshadow plugin and SpSVG.pm, the only problem I seem to have is how I should ask inkscape to pass the coordinates of selected nodes. It will have to be passed to my script together with object id. Can anybody help? Karol
