0.92pre3 - error with 7z version
by Brynn 22 Nov '16

22 Nov '16

Hi Friends, I've just downloaded 0.92pre3, 64-bit, 7z version, for Windows 7, 64-bit, sp1. After extracting it, when I click on inkscape.exe, I get the following error message. "C:\Users\.....inkscape.exe is not a valid Win32 application." Same thing with 32-bit, 7z version. For both, 7z gives me a long string of Diagnostic Messages. I don't see any way to save this list of messages. (There are over 4000.) There is no option for saving or exporting. The only available option is Close. There is no context menu for the contents of the window. I can't highlight anything either. (Well, I can highlight the message numbers, but if Ctrl c is copying them, then Ctrl v is not pasting (into Notepad).) Oh, but every single one of them starts with "Unsupported compression method for....." It's possible my version of 7z is old. I could try upgrading, if it's possible that could be the reason. Let me know if I can provide any further info, files, docs, etc. Or make a bug report. Thanks, brynn

fill pattern to explicit paths
by unknown＠example.com 22 Nov '16

22 Nov '16

Hi, I'm looking for a solution to convert my fill pattern which looks like this: <pattern id="diagonalHatch" patternUnits="userSpaceOnUse" width="4" height="4" patternTransform="rotate(45 2 2)"> <path d="M -1,2 l 6,0 M 2,-1 l 0,6" style="stroke:#000000; stroke-width:1" /> </pattern> and then: fill="url(#diagonalHatch)" to explicit paths, cause in my use case I cant use the fill argument, everything must be paths. For now I convert my svg to pbm and back to svg, this is quick'n'dirty but was the only solution I found til now. I want to do this automated on linux, so I'm looking for a cli solution so I can integrate it into my process. Is this even possible with inkscape or are there other tools I could use? Regards Matthias

Survey
by Victor Westmann 21 Nov '16

21 Nov '16

Hi Folks, I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the correct mailing list but here it goes: Wouldn't it be cool if we could have a survey of, let's say, max 8 to 10 questions to understand better how much our users are involved with the inkscape project and how they use the Inkscape. If they use it more to do mockups, design templates, buttons for websites, to vectorize raster blueprints or what. What do you guys think? This way we could try to bring more users to get involved with the project and try to understand better what do they look in the project. Maybe we could prioritize that. What do you guys say? --Victor Westmann

Re: [Inkscape-user] [Inkscape-devel] Entries to the contest
by Brynn 13 Nov '16

13 Nov '16

Suggestions for future contests. With so many entries, it's going to be really hard to choose just one. I seem to recall from the last contest, that the community was allowed to choose a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place vote. It also seems like there were 2 stages of voting, and in the 2nd stage, we only got one vote. But there were much fewer entries in the 2nd stage. Hhmm, looking back at the instructions for the last contest, it doesn't indicate what I remember, about the voting. So it's possible I don't remember correctly.... But if it was a dream, it was quite satisfying as a voter, to be able to choose 3. And the 2nd stage of voting made it more fun! Also might be nice to show the running vote count on the contest gallery page. If it's possible. Just some thoughts :-) All best, brynn ________________________________________________________ From: Victor Westmann Sent: Friday, November 11, 2016 3:26 PM To: Martin Owens Cc: inkscape-devel Subject: Re: [Inkscape-devel] Entries to the contest Can we vote more than once ?

I'm still working on fixing the rendering a little bit, so that entrants that used our advanced features won't be left with bad browser renderings during the vote (starts on Sunday!). I didn't get a response for the whole self-contained-package thing, so I guess it must not be possible.

by Maren Hachmann 13 Nov '16

Hi everyone, it's time to vote for the About Screen for the upcoming Inkscape version 0.92! We have a very diverse gallery with 56 entries, by 43 different Inkscape-using artists on the website. Everybody in the Inkscape Community is invited to cast their vote. In order to do so, you will need to log in or register an account for the Inkscape website (https://inkscape.org), if you don't have one yet. This is how it works: - Everyone gets 1 vote and all contest entrants may, of course, vote as well. - To vote, visit the gallery (https://inkscape.org/gallery/=about-screen-contest/contest-for-092+0/) and check out all those amazing works of art. - Click on one of the thumbnails to see the a larger version of the image and a description. Here, you can also comment on the entry. - To cast your vote, either click on the check mark below the image here, or hover over the small image in the gallery, to see a circle-shaped checkbox you can click on. When you accidentally voted for the wrong entry, you can correct your vote by just voting for a different one. - Voting will ONLY be accepted via the Inkscape website. - You can vote until November 19th 2016, 23:59h (UTC). - Once the community voting is done, the 3 top-voted entries will be passed on to the developers who will have the final vote for the winner. For the contest participants, ANY modifications of the files are prohibited from now on. Good luck to all who entered and thank you very much for all those cool pieces of art!
