Hi Shlomi. Add a copy to original CC, maybe could be interesting to someone. Im using Evolution in a Debian Box in plain text mode. I usualy write whith the default "normal" mode that break links. I hope if I switch to "preformated" mode the links not broken anymore. In the next line i write a link in normal mode and preformated: "normal mode" https://www.google.es/search?q=inkscape&pws=0&hl=es&num=10&gws_rd=ssl#pws=0… +a+libre+and+very+amazing+draw+editor+for+all "preformated mode" https://www.google.es/search?q=inkscape&pws=0&hl=es&num=10&gws_rd=ssl#pws=0… All the best, Jabier.

how to create new filters
by Brynn 04 Aug '15

04 Aug '15

Hi Friends, For a long time I've been trying to learn how to create new Inkscape filters. I mean starting from scratch, not just building on existing filters. I've been able to do some very simple things, but my efforts usually devolve into one at a time, trying every option available. By sheer chance, I sometimes end up with something that might be useful. It would be so very helpful if someone could write a guide, which explains the basic concepts. I think I've finally managed to work out how the Filters Editor works. But I'm missing the basic concepts which would help me make decisions about 'what to do next'. I have contacted people who I know have created filters, who know how to do it, but without success in finding the info needed. And I thought about adding this to the Community To-Do List page. It's a lot like the need for a guide to writing extensions, I guess. But for some reason, it seems to me like more of a request for a tutorial, and that's not exactly what that page is for (I don't think). Although if it seems to the website team like it's appropriate, I can see to adding it there. But otherwise, I thought I'd just make a request to the user community. Can anyone either volunteer to write such a tutorial? Or otherwise point me (and everyone) to some resources for learning how? Thank you very much :-) brynn

Combining text converts to path
by Brynn 29 Jul '15

29 Jul '15

Hi Friends, I just stumbled on this and find it surprising. I just want to make sure there's not some reason for this, before I at least consider reporting it (one way or another). If you combine 2 text objects (Path menu > Combine) they become paths! I realize that Combine is a command(?) for paths. (Or at least it's supposed to work on paths, if "command" isn't the correct word.) When I tried it, out of curiosity, I expected to get an error message in the status bar that one or both objects is not a path. So I was surprised that the text was converted to paths. Actually I was hoping it might combine 2 or more text objects into 1 text object. Yes, I know the proper way to do it is cut/paste. But that can be tedious, and I was hoping combine might just do that quickly. (And yes, I thought about grouping, but I didn't want a group. I wanted a text object. Hhmm, after further testing, this must be intentional, because combining 2 or more shapes converts them to path as well. Wow, and using combine on just 1 shape object converts it to a path too. Let's see....yes, using combine on a Group of shapes converts them to a single compound path! I can see where this can be convenient, especially it saves a couple of steps for a group -- if one knows about it. But is it really appropriate? Hhmm, well this is inconsistent then. When combine is used on a group of 2 text objects, it's changed to a compound path, but it's still ID'd as a group of 2. Shouldn't it throw an error in these situations, rather than convert to path? And for the group of text, the "Group of 2" seems incorrect....assuming this whole 'combine converts to path' is intentional in the first place. Thanks for any comments, brynn

Problem with snapping
by Pierre Massat 27 Jul '15

27 Jul '15

Dear all, I am new to Inkscape, and I'm very much in the discovery phase. I'm trying to understand how snapping works (I am aware of the snap controls bar, of the snap tab in the preferences, and of the snap tab in the document's properties). It seems to work all right when creating a new object. However no snapping happens when moving an existing object. This behavior is very counter-intuitive to me. In GIMP for instance when snapping is enabled it works when moving objects too. Is this the normal behavior ? If yes, how can I do precision work when copy-pasting objects (I need to draw a timeline, with 120 rectangles, one for each month for 10 years) ? Thank you very much in advance for your help. Pierre.
