Problems

Postby oujipickle » Sat Jul 24, 2010 4:11 am

Hi guys, Im new here so please be gentle.

Just started to use inkscape, when i click the rectangle tool and then click and drag on page all i get is a dashed border with the small squares and circles to resize and radiate corners. I cannot get a radius on corners by dragging down+ctrl

when i click the circle tool and then click and drag on page all i get is a dashed square border with the small squares and circles to resize and radiate corners.

I know this will be something you will laugh at and will be something very simple, but please heeeeeelpppppp!!!!

Cheers
Ouji

Usually this kind of problem means that the Opacity of the object is 0. Can you check if that's the case?
