Object outline

Hello - As a newbie I cannot find how to draw the border or outline of an object such as a rectangle. I would have thought this would be blindingly obvious, but somehow I am missing it. I cannot find anything in the manual. I would be grateful for advice. Regards John Sampson

Thanks - Running Inkscape in XP Windows compatibility mode has no effect on the problem. I will see if I can learn to report a bug. On 06/03/2016 11:41, C R wrote: > > Sure.

Hi Todor. The work on mass tool in eraser is previously done, because the eraser tool get code from caligraphic tool, so I only show mass widget. Anybody is thinking in another widget to show to eraser tool from caligraphic tool? About your concrete question: Is not as easy implement it, maybe the best option to it is add a option to caligraphic tool to only do one direction line instead the current shape, for example with width = 0. But is only a idea, not sure about, because you loose another pencil tool features :( Cheers, Jabier > --------- Mensaje reenviado -------- > De: Todor Imreorov <blurymind@...155...> > Para: jabier.arraiza@...2982... > Cc: inkscape-devel <inkscape-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net>, inkscape- > user <inkscape-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net> > Asunto: Re: [Inkscape-devel] New video three features. > Fecha: Mon, 7 Mar 2016 13:45:44 +0000 > > > Hi Jabier, > > I noticed that there is now a "Mass" value in the eraser tool. > > Would > > it be > > possible to also add it to the PENCIL tool?

Making "Fill and Stroke" work [Was: Object outline]
by Mick Ralph 08 Mar '16

08 Mar '16

John, I use Inkscape to produce drawings for use with the Silhouette cutter for making model railway carriages and buildings. You are unlikely to be particularly interested in this use, but there is an excellent tutorial on the various features of Inkscape as used for this purpose at http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/80563-introduction-to-usi… Mick Ralph >Message: 6 >Date: Tue, 8 Mar 2016 15:00:02 +0000 >From: John Sampson <jrs.idx@...3210...> >Subject: [Inkscape-user] Making "Fill and Stroke" work [Was: Object > outline] >To: inkscape-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net >Message-ID: <56DEE8F2.1070705@...3210...> >Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252; format=flowed > >Hello - > >I do not want to separate the lines I described.

Font bug?
by John Sampson 05 Mar '16

05 Mar '16

I have had a problem when working with a text box. I select some text in it in order to change the font. On clicking on the font selector, an alert box appears with the title "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library". The notice is "Assertion failed". "program C:\Program Files\Inkscape\inkscape.exe file cairo-font-face.c Line 144 Expression: CAIRO_REFERENCE_COUNT_HAS_REFERENCE (&font_face->ref_count)" The program then shuts down. I am using Inkscape 0.91 r13725 - the binary installation on Windows 7. Regards John Sampson

Re: [Inkscape-user] [Inkscape-devel] Website Design

I think there is no need for a framework for responsive design. Just a css with imports, and use the "mobile first" way. @import url('typography.css?v=0.01'); /* Extra Small Devices, Phones */ @import url('s300.css?v=0.01') (min-width: 300px); /* Custom, iPhone Retina */ @import url('s480.css?v=0.01') (min-width: 480px); /* Small Devices, Tablets */ @import url('s768.css?v=0.01') (min-width: 768px); /* Medium Devices, Desktops */ @import url('s992.css?v=0.01') (min-width: 992px); /* Large Devices, Wide Screens */ @import url('s1281.css?v=0.01') (min-width: 1281px); /* Shared*/ @import url('inkscape.css?v=0.01'); To write, or better to no write too much code we can use the "rem" unit for font size -and others- and adjust this in each s300.css, s480.css... with a line like this: html { font-size: 62.5% !important; //s300.css } changing the proportion in each css file. Cheers, Jabier.

Superscript
by John Sampson 05 Mar '16

In Inkscape 0.91 on Windows 7, there is a facility to select "superscript toggle" but it does not toggle - clicking again gives what looks like superscript of superscript. Regards John Sampson

New video three features.
by Jabiertxo Arraiza Cenoz 05 Mar '16

05 Mar '16

Hi, here are my last video. Is a kind of showcase of three features: * Eraser tool with no width now in trunk. * Randomize color extension now with a limit slider, also in trunk. * Optional auto fill Delaunay triangles with color and thin stroke in the same color. The code of this are in this bug:https://bugs.launchpad .net/inkscape/+bug/1553497 Anyway, there is better/faster ways to make Delaunay based in a image. So this is just a example. http://jabiertxof.marker.es/2016/03/no-width-eraser-mode-limit-random.h tml Cheers, Jabier.
