wireframe preview?
by volvoguy 06 Dec '04

06 Dec '04

If there's a way to view a wireframe version of a complex graphic, I haven't found it yet in Inkscape. This seems to me a very common feature in vector graphics editors. If it's not possible now, is the bugzilla the best place to make feature requests? :o) Thanks! -- Aaron Ubuntu SVG Artwork - www.volvoguy.net/ubuntu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Art, like morality, consists of drawing the line somewhere. ~ G.K.

Re: your blog for the gimp gradient editor

Well, one of the issues is that the importer doesn't 'show' you anything. Actually the gradient gets imported, but there isn't an object with that gradient on it. If you go to the fill & stroke dialog, you can add it to a shape by clicking on the gradient for the fill or stroke of any object on your canvas. Bulia and I have been talking about ways to make this more obvious -- hopefully it will be more user friendly in the next Inkscape release. --Ted

RPM build errors
by Jonathan Leighton [Turnip] 04 Dec '04

04 Dec '04

Hi, I've tried to build an RPM of Inkscape 0.40 on FC3, but I keep getting an error: RPM build errors: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found: /usr/lib/inkscape/plugins/libgimpgrad.a /usr/lib/inkscape/plugins/libgimpgrad.la /usr/lib/inkscape/plugins/libgimpgrad.so.0.0.0 Anyone know what that means? Also, if and when I build it, who should I send it to so that they can upload it on SourceForge?

Firefox 1.0 Linux on Gentoo has SVG plugin installed by default!!!!!!!!
by Jon Phillips 03 Dec '04

03 Dec '04

Hello all, I just opened an svg file by accident in Firefox 1.0 just to find that it displayed properly in my browser!!! Upon closer inspection I thought that I had setup svg to display in inkview, but no, I looked in the MozillaFirefox plugin folder and found these: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5632 Nov 18 04:20 libmozsvgdec.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1368 Nov 18 04:20 libmozsvgdec.la -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 8536 Nov 18 04:20 libmozsvgdec.so Thus, could you all check to see if the Mozilla SVG is provided with your Firefox 1.0 install? I am ecstatic with joy if this is installed by default on all Firefox 1.0 browsers, because that means we now have penetration into the world with SVG. I have just ruled out that I built my Gentoo install of Firefox with SVG, as it is not an option. Thus, the gentoo ebuild builds the SVG plugin by default. Hmmm...if you all could report if you have the SVG plugin on your install, it would be great to know to promote via our website. In the end, we have to consider that our app's usefulness will scale dramatically if SVG is adopted by more user's. As of now we are using more as a meta-format not much unlike Illustrator using AI as a default format for creating illustrations. With viewing of SVG files on the web, so much more will be possible.
