I found this tutorial for photoshop. Is there any way I could do this in inkscape ? http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Fold-a-Book-into-a-Word-The-original… I have a new laptop and am limited in space. If I install inkscape, how much space with it us from my hard drive ? if not I can always go back to my desktop. cheers,Joanne

Tesselation lines in svg
by Pantxo Diribarne 29 Mar '15

29 Mar '15

Hi, I use Octave [1] to generate plots as svg files and rework them later in Inkscape (0.48.4 in linux mint 17). As Octave uses opengl as its primary graphics renderer, polygons are always tessellated into smaller triangles. Unfortunately the boundary between triangles is visible on screen in Inkscape (see the attached simple plot). This is also true if I simply draw 2 triangles that have a common boundary, i.e. using "snap to grid" to ensure edges have the exact same coordinates: I can see a white boundary line on screen (and in pdf/eps outputs) between the two triangles. Is there a workaround in Inkscape? Does svg specification have a flag that tels the viewer something like "don't draw boundaries"? Thanks, Pantxo [1] https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/

You have decimals in the point positions of the triangles? > Message: 4 > Date: Sat, 28 Mar 2015 13:39:13 +0100 > From: Pantxo Diribarne <pantxo.diribarne@...155...> > Subject: [Inkscape-user] Tesselation lines in svg > To: inkscape-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net > Message-ID: <5516A0F1.3080507@...155...> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > Hi, > > I use Octave [1] to generate plots as svg files and rework them later in > Inkscape (0.48.4 in linux mint 17).

cannot do characters for text?
by Perry Kappetein 29 Mar '15

29 Mar '15

I am used to make some text characters with the Alt+0169 © But you can't do that in inkscape. Is there another way to do that? For now I do it in another program, and copy the symbol over. Thanks

GLowing Text and version
by Perry Kappetein 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

How can I make the text glow / highlight ? I tried one of the filters (Glow) but that isn't doing much) I want to use the text for a buton, and when someone presses the button, I want to see it all highlighted.. Thank you Ps. I am working with version 0.9.1 64 bit and it seems to slow, and crashing a lot (just quits) Is 0.48 better to use ? since all the videos I can find , seems to be all done with 0.4.8

Automatic replacement of ss
by Stefan Mueller 22 Mar '15

22 Mar '15

Hi all, I'm using Inkscape 0.91 on Ubuntu 12.04. With some fonts, when entering a double s ("ss") in a text block, it is automatically replaced with a sharp s (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%9F). However, sharp s is always incorrect spelling in Switzerland. This problem appears with all fonts of the ADF family and with Verana, but not with many others. I suppose this is an Inkscape feature. If so, how can I turn it off? Thanks in advance. Regards, Stefan

only 1 filter possible when grouped?
by Perry Kappetein 14 Mar '15

14 Mar '15

When you group several items, Can you do only 1 filter? I tried it, and I can only do 1, until I ungroup the items.. then I can apply several filters to it. (I have 25 squares, and wanted Button and Bloom) All selected then it works, but if I am grouping them first, then I can only apply 1, and I don't see The effect of the other ones. Is there a way to do it, without having it ungrouped ? Thank you

Turning a clone into a regular object?
by Brian Burger 11 Mar '15

11 Mar '15

Is there a way to turn a cloned object back into a regular individual object? I've got a set of symbols that I've copied, duplicated, cloned, copied to new documents, moved to other new documents, etc etc so many times I've got no idea what the "original" would be. If I use Shift+D to "discover original" in all of the several documents I'm currently working in, all I get is "original is in defs and NOT VISIBLE" - and if I try to copy one of these symbols from that document to a new one the cloned parts straight up won't cut and paste over to the new Inkscape doc. I could redraw these symbols, they're not all that complex, but I'd really rather not have to. Is there a way to turn a clone object into a freestanding regular object? Thanks, Brian
