Oh, then I should have read the FAQ! I'll do that then.

Hi fellow Inkscapists, I was looking to (1) achieve an effect like with the "Motion" extension. However, my use case is a bit particular, (2) applying it on clones of text ( (2') or at least groups of paths). Right now I do it just by making a small number of duplicates (of the clone) that...

Sadly, this won't work with window managers that already use Alt + Left mouse drag for moving windows. But I'm sure someone else will find it useful! And of course it's always good to refer to Tavmjong's site.

Thanks for all the info! It's reassuring that this is a known issue, my bad for not checking the bugtracker. Of course I don't want to abuse this forum for bug reports! The reason I wrote in the first place was the fact that it is the same in LibreOffice, but not Scribus. To me that seemed like a hi...

Hi everyone, I figured this might be a good place to ask this particular technical question. I'm using Inkscape 0.92.3 and Scribus 1.4.3. My issue is that I have OTF fonts (both bought and free) which are found and usable in Scribus, but not in Inkscape or LibreOffice. If someone knows a difference ...

I didn't know the eraser tool! Using that in "delete objects" mode made it pretty convenient, at least for simple shapes. So, thank you! I still think it would be a good feature, especially if you can switch between "any overlap", "at least half the bounding box", or &q...

Hi everyone, I thought it would be nice to select objects that are defined by the overlap with a path. You could see it as a "lasso select", but more general since the shape does not need to be hand-drawn on-the-spot. Use example, illustrated in the attached file: I have a complicated path...

Sorry brynn, guess it's too late over here... Now this (see attachment) is what you were asking for, i.e. the "manual" version of achieving the same result. I see the overlap with your wishlist request! Your idea of the interactivity is more fleshed-out than mine. I feel like this feature ...

Of course, sorry I forgot to provide this from the start! Here you go.

My fellow Inkscapists, what do you think about interactive distance-only scaling? Would it be useful for you? Let me elaborate: 1. You all know the interactive scaling of one or object several objects, using the handles on corners and sides of the bounding box. This has modifier keys that (Ctrl) kee...
