RE: [Inkscape-user] Preserving resolution of embedded bitmaps

File->Inkscape Prefs.->Misc tab. On a related note. When I import a picture (tried PNG and BMP) the image size says the correct resolution but the selection size is too small.

I would do just that if I knew how, but I have not seen control for the resolution of imported bitmaps in the Inkscape Preferences. Can you point me to it?

color of arrow-head
by Steffen Glückselig 16 Oct '04

16 Oct '04

Hello, I just noticed that changing the color of a line won't change the color of the arrow-head. Is this on purpose? Is there are workaround other than drawing one's own arrow? best regards Steffen -- Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/

Can't you tell in Inkscape Preferences to scale as 300dpi and not 72? Haven't tried it since everything I did was 72.

When you say that it is a bit fiddly to scale it back to the correct size... have you done it numerically? Such as right-clicking on the image and going into 'image properties' and modifying the width and height that way? Hopefully that helps... -Josh > -----Original Message----- > From: inkscape-user-admin(a)lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:inkscape-user- > admin(a)lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Henry House > Sent: Friday, October 15, 2004 7:44 AM > To: inkscape-user@...84... > Subject: [Inkscape-user] Preserving resolution of embedded bitmaps > > I have a high-resolution bitmap (300dpi JPEG) that I want to insert into > an > inkscape drawing.

embedding SVG in (X)HTML
by Steffen Glückselig 15 Oct '04

15 Oct '04

Hello, I'd like to embed some SVGs in XHTML. I'd use the object-Element of (X)HTML for that task. I'd like to scale the SVG to fit the dimensions given by the object-element via its width- and height-attributes. Is that possible? What would I have to add to my svg-file or to my html? best regards Steffen

centering diagonal line points
by Rob Benton 14 Oct '04

14 Oct '04

I've been working some with inkscape some and I have a problem I'm not sure how to solve. Let me draw a simple diagram: +----------+ | Box 1 | +----------+ / / +----------+ | Box 2 | +----------+ Is there a way I can exactly line up the end of those points to the center of each box? The top point of the line to the middle of Box 1 and the bottom point to the middle of Box 2. I didn't know if there was a good way to do this. Any ideas appreciated. Thanks

If there are any POV-Ray users kicking around out there, could you drop me a mail directly and let me know? I've seen a few of you lurking around out there (especially given the new POV-Ray export), and was looking for any guinepigs for a little util I'm working on. Thanks.

Performance Qs...
by Joshua A. Andler 13 Oct '04

13 Oct '04

I have just a few Qs regarding performance that I'm just curious about (not complaints, just wanting to understand). 1) Why does inkscape respond much slower when moving grouped/multiple items via arrow keys vs mouse? 1a) Why does it take so long to regain control of objects when they've been moved? (once again, those grouped/multiple objects) 2) Why does it sometimes take up to 2 mins to start responding again after moving grouped/multiple items (via KB)... longest I've seen by mouse is 20 seconds? (sometimes processor is pegged, other times only using 3%, but still not responsive) 3) Why does inkscape explode in RAM so much? Basically if I have an 800k document, why would inkscape be using 133megs of RAM (not always, but if working with it for like 30mins), vs a smaller (500k) document that only uses like 40megs. Thanks -Josh
