gray rectangles in window

Postby knezi » Mon Sep 24, 2012 4:21 am

Goog evening,
there are some gray rectangles in my picture, which I can't delete them and I didn't create these shapes. There are in export picture too. Do you know what are they and how I can delete they?
Thank you,
Knezi.
p.s. I'm sorry for my bag English.

Welcome Knezi!

That doesn't sound like anything I've seen before. Can you show us the SVG file? You can attach it to your next reply, or upload wherever you choose, and give us the link :D

possibly the 'greys' are on a different layer?

a work around could be to copy everything you want to a blank document.

Thank you for reply. I've uploaded attachment. Rectangles are visible only in some zooming.

There are gray rectangles in new document too.

The grey rectangles are an artifact of Inkscape's rendering of filtered objects. Here it is the 'rough paper' that you used on the stroke on the hat, (maybe unintentionally). They are persistent, which means that you will probably see them even after bitmap export. They probably will not show in another svg renderer. They do not show in the 'unstable' build of Inkscape, which uses a different renderer than the 'stable' build.
The project you are working on could benefit greatly from the use of clones rather than duplicating the unchanging central part, and your problem might actually go away...

See if this file has the same problem or if it is fixed?

Your mind is what you think it is.
