Hello list, I use Inkscape 0.44.1 on Fedora Core 6 Linux, and I would like to know how could I sort of "join" two paths together. I'm not necessarily talking about grouping them, but rather like what happens in Blender, where you can have a mesh and then start molding another mesh separate from the first, but sill be the two part of the same "object". I don't know if I make any sense with this. Particularly what I want to do is have the two objects be as one.
The reason I want this is because I'm trying to prototype a font style, so I need to have characters such as 'ñ', 'á', 'é', 'í', 'ó', 'ú', 'à', 'è', 'ì', 'ò', 'ù', 'ä', 'ë', 'ï', 'ö', 'ü', 'â', 'ê', 'î', 'ô', 'û', etc. From what I have been gathering, these have to be treated as a single entity so that the font renderer can "pick" the right character. I'm trying to make this and hopefully turn it into a TTF (would be my first). I'm not sure if I could then "import" the individual characters into a program such as FontForge and have the font made. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Very easy: first, select the two or more paths and do path-->combine (or CTRL+K).
Then go to the node edit tool, select two end nodes, and using the node tool's toolbar you can join them with a new segment.

Thanks a lot! That did it for me.
