What features would you like to see in Inkscape?
by Anna Morris 24 Feb '14

24 Feb '14

Hey, my name is Anna, I am a Free Software advocate from the UK. I am working for Open Initiative http://funding.openinitiative.com/ at the moment on their new feature-by-feature Free Software crowd funding platform. I am also an Inkscape user (here is something I made http://fsfe.org/graphics/xbox-infographic.png). So, some a question - which features would you just LOVE to see in Inkscape? What is missing? I will compile a list, using emails, forum posts, Facebook messages and the current list on the forums. I will also be talking to developers of course! I know crowd funding campaigns often don't get past the ideas stage because all the words and pictures are hard work to put together and people are busy etc - but I am here to help prepare the campaigns, which I am delighted to do, for at least the next month. My time is your time ;) Let me know Anna Morris

Single SVG file to multi-page PDF
by donn 24 Feb '14

24 Feb '14

Anyone know how I could layout/hack a single Inkscape SVG file so that I can get a multi-page PDF out the other end? Inkscape -> layout tricks (maybe layers?) -> some process (maybe command line) -> PDF file with pages. At the moment I am laying-out logos and designs on a single 'page' which can be as tall as 9000 pixels. Is there a way to 'chop' a single PDF page like that into smaller chunks? \d

Decatenate/split path commands in svg files
by Antonio Roberts 22 Jan '14

22 Jan '14

Hi, I'm currently attempting to address a bug in another prorgam called nodebox, whereby the svg parser has trouble interpreting svgs that have their path commands concatenated. Bug link https://github.com/nodebox/nodebox/issues/376 > [nodebox svg parser] can' t handle svg paths where the commands are concatenated to the values to preserve space. (i.e. 482.36a16 should be read as 482.36 a 16 but NodeBox reads it as one thing) Of course one answer is for the developers to improve their svg parser, but in the meantime Is there any way to save svgs in Inkscape where path commands aren't concatenated/joined? Are their any external tools I could use? Antonio -- ============================ antonio@...2662... http://www.hellocatfood.com ============================

Pasting bitmaps from other programs
by Michael Grosberg 16 Jan '14

16 Jan '14

I just tried something I'm pretty confident I did in the past: I pasted a bitmaps from another program (Irfan View, and later Photoshop) into Inkscape. It was a small bitmap - 24x24 pixels. But no matter what I did it appeared with a size of 11.81x11.81 pixels. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? I tired fiddling with the bitmap preferences in inkscape, and also changing the image resolution to 90 px/inch on the programs I copied from, but nothing helped. I'm using Inkscape 0.48+devel r12395.

The 'layer icons' is to big
by Tommy Hjalmarsson 05 Jan '14

05 Jan '14

Hi. I have my own modified Inkscape icons, and I edit the icons again after layout change in the 'icons.svg' a few years back. But with Inkscape 4,8 I have the ugliest vector program on earth. The 'layer icons' is to big, even if I change back to the original icons svg file. But direct after the installation of Ubuntu studio, with Inkscape it was honky dory. Preferences do not change the layer icons, but all other icons in Inkscape. Inkscape 4.8 Ubuntu studio 64 bit 13.10 Maybe: I have my own made icon theme, and it have a old "index.theme" file. Should I search for the problem in that file?* */Tommy Hjalmarsson Inkscape Gallery: http://zombiwoof.deviantart.com/gallery/12392182* *

Re: [Inkscape-user] What features would you like to see in Inkscape?

I'm using Inkscape to make web flash-style animations. I use the XML Editor to create and edit the SMIL animation tags, so I would like to see in Inkscape: 1.- Improved XML Editor 1.1- This bug fixed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/663779 1.2- Improved User Interface, more intuitive way to add attributes, change it's values, add and rearrange tags. 2.- SMIL Animation support 2.1- A timeline to see how the graphics change on the animations. This timeline could be absolute-time based, but also event-base (e.g.: somegraphic.click) 2.2.- User Interface for adjusting animation's attributes, spline editor, etc...
