[Inkscape-user] How to get rid of groups' transform=translate()

Hi all,

So I managed to get a line segment to route itself between 2 circles. But if the 2 circles are in a group, and the group's been duped, the circles have the same cx and cy and their group has a different translate(). Ugh!

I have to dup groups because I want to input onclick, onmouseover, onmouseout, and class only once on the group.

Does anyone know how a group's translate() can be incorporated into its component paths' and circles' x and y or cx and cy so getting a location is as simple as reading cx and cy, rather than doing all sorts of arithmetic with the parent's translate()?

Thanks,

SteveT
