Cedric,

I'm using 0.45.1 right now.  There is much other choice fro gradients manually.  Don't know if you can do something snazzy like you're talking about in the xml editor. 

I haven't checked on 0.46 development yet.  I have seen some post about pretty cool upgrades to the gradient tool where nodes can be added to a gradient and then edited to be used as color stops. 

Perhapses a request for something like path to gradient is in order?  I don't know if SVG would support something like this.

Hi Dan,

It's normal, the "pattern along a path" effect was launched with the
0.45 : http://www.inkscape.org/screenshots/index.php?lang=en&version=0.45

Perhaps there is the 0.45 on the backports.

Cheers,
