the content of a layer is partially inaccessible

Postby petitours » Wed Oct 10, 2012 4:58 am

Hello

I did 4 months ago a brochure with Inkscape with many objects on different layers. Today I would like to change it, but I can not select some objects, text boxes.
All the layers are unlocked (open padlock).
Some of the concerned layer objects can be selected.

What else could lock text boxes on a layer apart from the padlocks ?

Thank you very much in advance

I think objects can be locked, via Object Properties. You can't select a text box iteself, but you should be able to select the text. Unless by "text box" you mean you drew it with something other than the Text tool. The only other thing I can think of, would be if you had sublayers that were still locked.

If you can't figure it out, you'd be welcome to provide the SVG file, and then someone here can have a look at it. You could attach the file to a message, or upload wherever you choose, and give us the link to it :D

The probleme is on left page text
"INDEPENDANCE" to "SIRET....."

Thank you very much

Oh, I'm glad you found it, because I couldn't get your image from that link. Or maybe you deleted it after finding the problem? Anyway, nice work :D
