[Inkscape-user] Fwd: Automatically set Z-order

Woo-Hoo

Thanks to Kurt I was able to pull together an extension. It is ungainly slow because of the whole "calling another instance of Inkscape" deal , but it does work. This provides an option of restacking the selected objects in a direction (left to right, right to left, top to bottom, or bottom to top) as well as the point of each object to compare (top left, bottom middle, etc).

Attached are before and after samples, as well as the extension. It registers as "Effects->Modify Path->Restack"

I am running on Inkscape 0.46dev+devel, built Apr 28 2007, so ymmv if running .45
