Re: Download 0.47 Tonight McAfee Alerted on it.

Well I downloaded it anyway and McAfee claims it took a virus out of it. A-square and malwarebytes didn't find anything in it. :P

Are you getting an error message? If so post it here. The file you download should have everything and install itself. I haven't have any problems yet with 4 installs of the regular version and I don't know how many of the developers version. I have at least 5 different version of inkscape install o...

Re: Unable to Open Extracted Files

The zipped versions are not self extracting you have to get the 7-zip (or equivalent) utility to open them. I think link for the .exe file is right in front of the compressed file link on the inkscape site. I usually get the zipped file and uncompressed it with 7-zip. Which for some reason will only...

Re: Fiddling with paths

Well in inkscape there away a bunch of way to do anything. And how you color those areas depend on how the black part of the cactus is construed. Is it all closed paths with fills? Or mixed? (I'm assuming the parts of the path you can see through are not exclusions because, if they were you already ...

Re: Selection for path difference operation

Sorry I did see the SVG file. I was rushing. It's because of the group. You currently can't do path operations on a grouped set of objects. Un-group them and you can do a difference on the individual path. Or ungroup and then do a combined cntl k on paths (that were converted from text). Then you ca...

Re: Strange export bug

If that is the export bug where part of the path is dropped. You can get around it by export at a much bigger resolution then scale it down in something like gimp. Or you could try another program to make the png: Batik http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/batik/too ... rizer.html

Re: rectangle horizontally

You can do it with the snapping options. Turn on either bonding box snapping or node snapping under Shift Cntl D . Also turn on either snap to grid or pull down a guide line from the ruler and turn on snap to guides. If you want to keep the proportions probably using the snap bonding box corners is ...

Re: Bus stops with name

Inkscape will only store the directory path to imported images by default. You can embed them so they are stored in the inkscape file effects menu >> images >> embed all images. Or you can put them in a subfolder you move with the SVG file. If you move the PNGs to a sub file you will have to up date...

Re: Editing path data ('d') attribute directory for an arc

I think it's more likely you put in some coordinates that weren't executable. That d (line node what ever you want to call it) has the coordinates of the open circle nodes on ellipse. The handles you move to make a particle ellipse or arc . If you typed put in points that aren't on inkscape's extrap...
