Yes, similar is also the Inkscape Export. If you zoom in you can see the Gaussian Blur is rendered by pixels (resolution depending on settings).

Re: Recreate embossed logo for vector/pdf

Thank you very much Polygon! Very kind to provide the file. I was able to open it in Inkscape, remove unwanted effects as well as to tweak others like "Offset" so that the result is very much what I want. Since "Gaussian Blur" is involved (twice) it is however not possible to exp...

Recreate embossed logo for vector/pdf

I'm not an expert with Inkscape filters. I would like to recreate an embossed logo effect as shown on the attached pictures (taken from a printed label). Trying Inkscape filters aside from not giving me a satisfying recreation AFAIK mostly creates pixel effects. I would prefer recreating the effect ...

Re: Problem with text baseline spacing (line height) in 0.92 Pre

Since using Inkscape 0.92.0 r15299 I'm also really struggling with text formatting GUI regarding spacing between baselines. While reading some bug reports I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1590141 + https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1617692 I still could not figure out why some...

Re: ungrouping in 3d party SVG changes font size

With Ctrl + click, you can select individual objects inside a group, and work on them that way. Hhmmm....I'm not sure why this works....but if I select the group, and do Path menu > Object to Path, before Ungroup, then the text does not change when ungrouped. However, the text is no longer text, an...

ungrouping in 3rd party SVG changes font size

I'm using Inkscape 0.91 on Win7x64. If I open a SVG created by TreeGraph2 I see that lines, dots and text are grouped together. When I would like to edit some of those elements and use ungroup in Inkscape the text (font) settings seem to change because the font size gets bigger. I attach a sample fi...

Re: Curved Gradients

Thank you for the tutorials here. I think curved gradients are very requested for advanced drawing. I have the problem that shaping a curved gradient with linear pieces, the PDF output was oddly different - see screens: http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/ws126hro/thumb/curvgradInks.png http://img6.imag...

Re: Preview SVG files before opening?

Open -> select file -> click show preview, then you can scroll through the files with thumbnails! Good tip, however you see only the SVG when you click on it. I'm searching more a SVG-Image-Thumbnail-Preview-Browser and on Windows I could find only IrfanView with a bad SVG rendering using CADImage ...

Re: Transparency opacity alpha with Color Extensions Graysca

This filter was known to me: Color Matrix > Luminance to Alpha . Howewer the result is not the same; this filter only allows to get black transparency by filter. Neither the color nor the transparency can be adjusted manually. If possible, I guess only a color extension will be able to do the same a...

I do the following on color vector logos and images to make a nice white or black colored version (depending on background) with transparency / opacity / alpha of the paths set to Luminance of the previous color (dark paths should become opaque, light paths transparent - see example): ⋅ se...
