Re: [Inkscape-user] Need help using Render Gears tool

I've been using a r15987 svn build on Windows. What i've done is:

1. Use Bezier tool to draw some straight lines with a few 90(more or

less) degree turns. 2. Convert to path. 3. Effects --> Render --> Gear

So far, it only creates one "gear" from the selected set of path. I may be doing it wrong, if so, how should I use the gears tool?

I don't know about the Gears extension (called Effects in the menu) Did you try LPE's? There is a nice live-gear-thingie. See examples/live-path-effect-gears.svg. http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Image:Lpe-gears.png
