HSL tab in 0.92pre2(beta)
by Brynn 23 Oct '16

23 Oct '16

Hi Friends, There seems to be some drastic changes in the HSL tab of the Fill and Stroke dialog. I've looked through the Release Notes page, but I don't see any info. Did I just not see it? These are my questions: The top bar used have colors from red on the left to red on the right, and every other color in between. And if you wanted precision, you could use the numbers from 0 to 255 to set the color. But now, the top bar is something else entirely. It goes from white on the left, to some 2nd color in the middle (red) to some 3rd color on the right (aqua). But *none* of those 3 colors are the color of the object (which I initially set from the palette along the bottom). If I slide the bar, it doesn't change the color I set to white, the 2nd color or the 3rd color. It sets some other odd colors. How can I adjust the color now - especially if I don't want to use the palette to start with? There's now a new 5th bar at the bottom, under the Alpha bar. It goes from white on the left, to the middle color, which is not the color of the object, back to white on the right. Adjusting that bar seems to have no effect on the color of the object at all. Changing the number value doesn't do anything either. What is it for? The bars on the HSL tab used to be labeled, like the bars are still labeled on the RGB and CMYK tabs. If they were labeled, it might at least give me a clue. Thanks for your help :-) brynn

Dear Users, I've just updated the website software to host our About Screen Contest. I'll be running the real contest very shortly, but before then I need your help. There is a new gallery which should contain all entries to the contest here: https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=about-screen-contest/about-test-contes t/ This software update to the website is new, so expect a bug here or there, but please do try and submit an entry. You can submit an old entry or a new entry, it's up to you. It will: Stop you uploading anything other than svg files, uploading to the wrong category, uploading using the wrong license, uploading the wrong image size (fixed size in the contest rules of 750x625). If you find any faults with these or other errors, please respond to me here on the mailing list, privately by email or by submitting a bug report to inkscape-web on launchpad. Thanks a lot! Best Regards, Martin Owens Webmaster

Gradients along a path?

Is there a way to do this in inkscape? For example, is there a way in Inkscape to do something similar to http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/4163057, but using the Inkscape UI, not writing code? - Joe */#!/*JoePea

Answers section: Spanish question about changing font size
by Maren Hachmann 16 Oct '16

16 Oct '16

Hi everyone, would someone help a Spanish-speaking user by explaining how to set defaults for the text tool? While I do understand the question, I don't think I'd be able to answer in Spanish in a way that the user will understand... Plus, I'd like to get more different people to answer questions there, until we can direct users somewhere else ;-) The question in question is here: https://answers.launchpad.net/inkscape/+question/403034 Thank you! Regards, Maren
