Hello everyone,
recently I created a presentation using inkscape. I specified 1280x1024 under File|Document Preferences|Custom Canvas. Then, I found out most installations use the display ratio 4:3 (e.g. 1600x1200, 1024x768, and 800x600) - including the computer that will run the presentation. Now, if I use inkview to view the presentation full-screen on such a computer, a white stripe is added to the right of each page - to keep the aspect ratio; compensating the difference 5:4 and 4:3. Of course, this white edge is unacceptable.
How can I avoid this? Inkview has no options yet, and so the only solution is to change each SVG in the presentation. But how do I do this? Changing Custom Canvas again won't rescale the SVG - I have to:
* select everything - Ctrl+A * Object|Transform|Scale - Vertical = 93.75% * Object|Transform|Move - Vertical = 32 * File|Document Preferences|Custom Canvas - 1280x960
This is a pain when I have to do this for all the pages in the presentation. Is there a trick that will achieve the same? Or a tool/script (possibly outside of inkscape)? Or am I to create a script in the inkscape (I have not looked into it but I would be able to write one using the Python interface for embedded scripting)?
Another question, is there a repository/web page/whatever for sharing these scripts?
TIA, jbar
