How to round rectangle corners with number parameters

Postby umen » Fri Sep 12, 2014 5:51 pm

Hey
i know i can round the simple rectangle with mouse click in the top right rectangle corner ,
but i have several rectangles that i need to round them the corners .
i didn't found any where in the inkscap GUI some kind of parametrical way to round the corners
where does it hide ?
for example i need to round the corners 15 px down on the Y .

Hi.

You can specify those numeric values in the xml editor (Shift+Ctrl+X), as the rx and ry attributes.

In case you don`t have to many different parameters, you could use Grid and Snap to grid along with "mouse click in the top right rectangle corner". In some cases, Grid & Snapping to grid might also work even if you have several different parameters - perhaps they have common quotient?
:tool_zoom: <<< click! - but, those with a cheaper tickets should go this way >>> :!:
