People, I have set up Inkscape 0710231640-dw2 and immediately ran into a problem with gradients. It may be something dead simple.
I drew a rectangle I filled it with colour I set up a linear gradient from colour to white. I selected the rectangle plus gradient and rotated it. Both rotated but when I deselected the rectangle went black.
Similarly I duplicated the rectangle plus gradient. It looked good and I moved it. Still looked good but when I let it go it went black. The original still had its gradient. The fill is a liner gradient and the rotate/trnslate button is on.
Can someone verify this behaviour or tell me what I am doing wrong? Please tell me I should have switch on that is off or summit.
The standard 0.45 release works OK.
cheers, Erik kaver@...45...
