Hi all, I've been using Inkscape (version 0.45 under Ubuntu) for a couple of months mostly to make technical drawings and diagrams for use on Wikipedia.
I love it, but there's just one thing that's driving me nuts! There's no way to resize the page without resizing all the objects in it.
For example, I may have an object that's exactly 36×24 mm on an 8×10" page. If I change the page size to A4, all the objects change their size. The only way to restore it is to calculate the *exact* scale factor and then rescale them afterwards... and even then there are sometimes some rounding errors :-(
So is there a way to resize the page without scaling the objects within?
That isn't normal behavior. Sounds like you edited the files by hand and added a viewBox attribute on the root SVG element to make them scale in a web browser. If that is the case removing the viewBox should revert you to the normal behavior.
