Possibly useful extensions...

Postby RobA » Tue Jun 19, 2012 1:37 am

I was working with an externally generated SVG file that created everything as groups. I wanted to manage these as layers, so I wrote a quick pair of extensions to turn any selected groups into sublayers of the existing layer, and turn the active layer into a group in the layer above (or root).

I think the group->layer extension could use a recursion option, but I haven't gotten that far yet. Please let me know if this is useful.

They show up under Extensions->Convert Groups or Layer.

Awesome, RobA :D
Are these going to go into the Extension Repository?

fyi, causes inkscape to crash in version 0.48.3.1

Nevertheless, just because of this awesome extension, i keep on using a 0.48.2 version although.
