help with font
by Joanne Rancourt 03 May '15

03 May '15

I have not used inkscape for a while and was self taught. It is a long learning curve which will be even harder now on my laptop with no mouse. I have a file created years back and need to add one number to it to make it 2015. I can't for the life of me remember which font I used and how to add the 5 in the right size and right angle. Could someone help please ? I would also like to remove the date completely but don't think that is possible, or is it ? am attaching the file if someone can help I would appreciate. cheers,Joanne

Exported images' colors won't match colors displayed in Inkscape
by Juha Salo 03 May '15

03 May '15

Hi I seem to be having a color management problem. I don't know how to fix it. When I export my drawing from Inkscape as PNG and open it in Windows photo viewer or Adobe Lightroom, the colors don't match those I see in Inkscape. However, if I view the image in Windows 8 Photo app (Metro app), the colors do seem to match Inkscape. I have created a color profile for my monitor. I have tried to change Inkscape's settings to use it through Document Properties > Color > Linked Color Profiles as well as Preferences > Input/Output > Color Management. Changing those settings don't seem to have any effect on the colors when I export the drawing. I'm a newbie when it comes to color management, so I don't know what I should be doing to preserve the colors.

How to set default fill and stroke for texts?
by Chris Green 02 May '15

02 May '15

I'm a new Inkscape user, I'm using it to draw some simple network diagrams. I seem to have got my text set up so that that default fill is 'None' and the stroke is not 'None'. For the small size text I'm using this produces rather rubbish looking text. I can't work out how to set the defaults back to what they should be. Clicking the 'Set as default' box in the text pop-up doesn't help, as expected that sets the default font style and size. Can anyone help? -- Chris Green

Save selected image
by Perry Kappetein 08 Apr '15

08 Apr '15

I've looked online and through the manual, but cannot find what I was looking for, so I am not sure if you can do that. When I select the image I want to save on my screen. It's always selecting a bigger area around it. Is there a way to just select that image without a big blank border around it? Tried the Custom as well, but I don't see anything happening.

Pixelate an svg using filters
by Antonio Roberts 07 Apr '15

07 Apr '15

Are there any working filters that are able to pixelate an svg? That is, make an svg appear as though it were made from blocks? I see the Pixelise filter effect in the filters list but this does it very little. Thanks, Antonio -- ============================ antonio@...2662... http://www.hellocatfood.com ============================

Re: [Inkscape-user] Urgent help needed + Erase possible?
by Perry Kappetein 05 Apr '15

It's not a SVG file, it was the PNG file I just imported. But I got that part figured out.. (Exporting the png first, did the trick) Now the other problem I am having it. (And I don't know if that's possible or not) If I import a PNG image. Can I erase parts of it? I tried adding a square on top to hide it, but that doesn't work, if I put an effect over it. So I need to delete part of the png, and keep the background Transparent. Is that possible ?

sadness for photorealistic artists
by Brynn 05 Apr '15

05 Apr '15

Hi Friends, As much as I'm SO happy with the new renderer that Inkscape acquired new in 0.91, it seems to have taken away the ability to see the pixels, which I rely on to locate the precise edges of of shapes, and to get accurate colors (with Dropper tool), for photorealistic work. When viewing raster images or photos, there are no pixels to be seen, even zoomed in to 25,600%!! So I may have to tweak my workflow for that. And I guess I'll have to go back to 0.48.5 to finish my in-progress drawings. I might even have to give up photorealistic drawing, because it's impossible to find the precise edges of objects, when the colors are quite similar! I suppose there will be no compromise possible -- to have the nice performance of the new renderer, yet still be able to see the pixels of photos or raster images? Thanks for any comments :-) brynn

Urgent help needed
by Perry Kappetein 04 Apr '15

04 Apr '15

Hello, I am trying to figure this out for weeks, and I am lost. I have my original image: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ni1jiik9q936131/help1.png?dl=0 Which has a transparent inside since it’s used for a bouncing ball. I applied an effect button to it. (or any other effect) To get this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bjd9l5vr35a97ve/help2.png?dl=0 But I am losing my transparency. Even in my other program, I selected Grey as transparency. It’s still not working. So how can I fill it with an effect, that it’s only doing the blue part, and not the inside of it? Or how can I make the Grey part transparent in Inkscape? Thank you so much
