Error with exported image

Postby Uktrunie » Fri Mar 25, 2011 3:44 am

Hello guys.

I'm having a pretty mysterious problem with an image.

This is how it looks in Inkscape:

And this is how it looks like when exported to png:

Note the problem with Bart's hear... I don't know what to do here, if I move the different object around in some point the problem goes away, but I don't want to move things around :)

Any idea? Does anybody know if this is a known bug?

Thanks for your time and help.

Uktrunie.

Are you Exporting or Saving as a png?

I can't reproduce the problem either. Using Export Bitmap.

I'm using Export Bitmap. If I use Save As the problem disappears but the png looks really ugly.

I wander what could it be... Some config for the exporter that I might have inadvertently modified?

Thanks for the time.

Ok, well this is interesting, although I can't explain it, lol.
When I used Drawing for the export area, there were no problems. But if I use Page for the export area, there the same problem you are having!

The rendering glitch occurs for me when exporting the 'Page' area to bitmap, and also can be observed on-canvas at certain zoom levels, or when changing between tools (select and node tool IIRC). AFAICT it's among the known issues with Inkscape's current renderer - among the reported workarounds are a) varying the dpi value slightly, or b) inserting an additional node into the path that is only partially rendered in the exported PNG (I haven't tested any with this file though).

Yes, sorry, I should have said I was using Page export...

As ~suv said, adding a node solved the problem. Modifying the DPI had some strange behavior: a value of 89 produced a point clipped and a point kind of displaced, a value of 91 reduced the clipping to only one point of the hear, 92 solved the problem (although you get different image sizes of course).

So, yes, adding a node to each of the points nailed the problem, no need to move the objects or the nodes, just add one node and voilà.

Anyway, thank you guys. :mrgreen:

EDIT: hahahaha, I just realized that the word is hair, not hear... that's the problem with spell checkers, two words exist but only one means what you one.

ahh yes...english is a strange concoction of latin, german, french, + other. you cannot write/spell most words going by the sounds. and there's also a few homonyms = words that sound same but have different meaning and spelling: one - won, eight - ate, night - knight, etc. and there's even some words that are exactly the same on paper and spoken the same, but mean different things: spell - spell....one is for spelling, and other for casting a spell. no wonder the spell checker for english misses quite a bit. also no wonder it's so hard to communicate precisely in english.
learning these confusing words helps with the madness.

stroke: the outline, movement or line of a writing tool, to pet a pet (lol), the travel of a piston in an engine, a blood clot causing oxygen deprivation in the brain, an occasion different to normal e.g. stroke of luck.

i think Shakespearean english was easier in a way, as it was much less information dense. "A feast of languages"
