Re: [Inkscape-user] Perspective Path Effect on groups
Hi is a problem because when you group a "circle" change from svg:path to svg:ellipse and this dont handle well LPE inside grups.
Workarround: convert circles to paths pre-lpe it if inside a group.
Cheers, Jabier.

Alvin, you are a genius! I see what you mean. I can group stuff, but must make sure that everything is a path.
I wish one could do this to objects, text, clones and so on, but it's better than what we had before.

Yes. Everything must be a path. It's a pity.
(The release notes say "Can be used on paths, shapes and groups." So there's something wrong.)

Not wrong you can use on groups of paths ;)

Hi, thanks for the feedback. I see now that if you apply the menu operation 'Path->Object to Path' to the object before you group it, then the LPE will work normally. It might be worthwhile to put a warning of some type to the user to let them know that this is required, when it fails. A warning message of this type is given by the Python extension in the menu item Extensions->Modify Path->Perspective. If you use a star as the first object in this extension, then the procedure will fail and you will get the message:
The first selected object is of type 'star'. Try using the procedure Path->Object to Path.
just my 2cents, Cheers, Alvin
