Bobbin lace: grids and patterns
jo.pol
A collection of plug-ins primarily intended for designers of bobbin lace patterns. The plug-ins draw various types of printable grids of dots or pair diagrams. For non lace makers: pair diagrams are two-in-two-out digraphs. Some tools have a BSD license, others a GPLv3. An older release of the plugins (for a pre 1.0 version of InkScape) has a 5th plug-in, it complements an interactive online tool. This tool is replaced by GroundForge on https://d-bl.github.io/ The tool generates thread diagrams from pair diagrams. The new tool groups the segments of a line and doesn't need the 5th plugin any more.

Inkporter
Rania Amina
An extension that will help you to export your object in your SVG file to several formats (SVG, JPG, PDF, Multiple PDF Page, WEBP, and EPS) by its ID. If you're a book creator, icon designer, seller in a marketplace, web designer, this extension will help you with your task. This extension is also available as a CLI version (https://inkporter.raniaamina.id). How does Inkporter work? The simple explanation is that Inkporter will read ID patterns (i.e icon-1, icon-2, icon-3, etc) that you've set and then export them to the file format you need. Inkporter allows you to feel like you're working with artboard-like or multiple pages in Inkscape. How do you use Inkporter? Just copy and paste the Inkporter directory, inkporter.inx and inkporter.py to the Inkscape extension directory. If the installation is correct, you will find Inkporter menu in Extensions -> Export -> Inkporter. For a complete guide and the dependencies needed, please refer to the README.md file. If you need better performance of this tool, we provide Citramanik (https://citramanik.dev-is.my.id) the next generation of Inkporter. --- Reviewed by Martin Owens on May 12 2021 4:55 PM pytest coverage: 0% pylint score: 5.75/10 Tested on Inkscape 1.1, packaging issues. --- Curated by Martin Owens on May 25 2021 1:37 PM --- Curated by Martin Owens on May 25 2021 2:41 PM

Inkscape Axonometric Projections 4.0
Jeroen Hoek
This Inkscape extension transforms objects drawn on a two-dimensional plane to an isometric projection — or even any other dimetric or trimetric projection. Inkscape provides an axonometric grid that by default is configured for the isometric projection (i.e., the three axes are set at 120° angles). Drawing with this grid works quite well for simple shapes, but sometimes it is easier to draw the details of an object using a two-dimensional grid, and then scale, shear, and rotate the object to set it on an isometric plane. For more information, see: https://github.com/jdhoek/inkscape-isometric-projection For users of Inkscape versions older than 1.0-beta2, please use version 1.2 of this extension: https://github.com/jdhoek/inkscape-isometric-projection/releases/tag/v1.2 If you find a bug, please report it here: https://github.com/jdhoek/inkscape-isometric-projection/issues

Scientific Inkscape
burghoff
A set of extensions for efficiently importing, editing, and resizing scientific figures. 1. Scale Plots: Changes the size or aspect ratio of a plot without modifying its text and ticks. Especially useful for assembling multi-panel figures. 2. Flattener: A utility that eliminates much of the structure generated by common plot generation programs and PDF imports. For most imported plots, this should be the first thing you run. 3. Homogenizer: Sets uniform fonts, font sizes, and stroke widths in a selection. 4. Auto-Exporter: Automatically exports SVG files in a directory and keeps them updated. 5. Gallery Viewer: Provides a way to view and edit the SVG contents of files or folders. 6. Text Ghoster: Adds a semi-transparent background to text so that it can be overlaid with data. 7. Combine by Color: An extension that fuses paths of the same color and style together into a single path. 8. Favorite Markers: Lets you designate certain markers as favorites so that they can be conveniently accessed. --- Curated by Martin Owens on April 22 2022 9:10 AM

Multiple Boolean Operations with Inx Pathops
Maren Hachmann
Boolean operations for multiple objects at once - difference, union, intersection, exclusion, division or cut. The extension is a rewrite of the Multi-Bool extension, and offers many adjustable settings and improvements. It takes a selection of one or more groups, or of several elements (paths, shapes, text), or a mix of both, and applies a chosen path operation with the top-most valid object in paint order and each other valid object which is part of the selection (directly or as member of a processed group) that is lower in Z-order. For more info, please refer to the README file at https://gitlab.com/moini_ink/inx-pathops/-/blob/master/README.md .

Pixels to Objects
Scott Pakin
Select a bitmap and one or more other objects, and run Extensions → Raster → Pixels to Objects…. The extension will place one copy of an object at each pixel coordinate. For example, a 32×32 image will lead to objects being placed at coordinates (0, 0) through (31, 31). Options enable objects to have their stroke and/or fill color adjusted to match the corresponding image pixel; background-colored pixels to be either considered or ignored; image coordinates to be scaled up or down; and multiple objects to be assigned to coordinates either randomly or deterministically. For instance, in the banner image above, a 16×16 bitmap was selected along with four path objects of size at most 18×18. In the dialog box, "Apply color to stroke" and "Ignore background pixels" were checked. "Image coordinate scaling" was set to 18 to prevent the path objects from overlapping. And "Instantiation of multiple objects" was set to "By image coordinates" to cycle evenly through all four path objects.

Simple Inkscape Scripting
Scott Pakin
Simple Inkscape Scripting makes it easy to automate repetitive drawing tasks. It defines a simple set of Python functions such as "rect" to draw a rectangle and "line" to draw a line. For example, the one-line program "for r in range(7, 0, -1): circle((100, 100), 10*r, fill=['white','red'][r%2])" is all it takes to draw a bullseye. Invoking the extension (Extensions → Render → Simple Inkscape Scripting…) brings up a dialog box that lets you load a Python script from a file or enter Python code directly in a text box. Shapes produced by the script appear directly on the canvas and can be edited just like any other shape. See https://github.com/spakin/SimpInkScr for details and examples.

Customise User Interface
Mr. Raven
This extension allows you to show or hide menu items and toolbar buttons in Inkscape. The purpose of this is to: - Hide user interface elements you don't want to see. - Make the interface simpler for educational purposes. - Tailor Inkscape towards a specialised working enviroment. I welcome comments, ideas, suggestions, bug reports. If you use it, please write something at the bottom of this page. Installation. Download the .zip file. Installation instructions and a manual are in the file "custui_Readme.html", which is included in the zip file. I will also submit this extension for review so it may become available in the extensions manager. Inkscape 1.0 on Windows misses a "HarfBuzz" library that is needed. If you use Inkscape 1.0 on Windows, you need to install the HarfBuzz library manually. Instructions are in the Readme file. Many thanks for testing and also advice and ideas: @Kirstie, @DoctorMo and @Adam.Belis Changes for version 0.3: - Change the interface too look a bit better - Add function to restore default settings - Make some more items in View menu immutable for Inkscape 1.1

How To Draw A Line
brynn
"New Inkscape users are sometimes frustrated when they search the manual (or forums) for how to draw a line, and can't find instructions. That's because "line" is a bit of a nebulous term, at least in Inkscape....although in some ways it can be confusing in any vector graphics program. What we generally think of as a line, is called a path, in Inkscape. But it's not just a matter of terminology." Read on to learn the basics!

Duplicate, reverse and join to create stickfont
Ellen Wasbø
With using a sketch pen with my plotter, I prefer the true single line SVG fonts that draw the lines only once. But – as these true single line fonts cannot be installed and be used as regular outline fonts I would like to offer my single line fonts as stick fonts too. A stick font is an outline font with zero with so that the letters will be traced twice. I wrote an Inkscape extension to effectively converting a single line SVG font to a TTF stick font. Visit the link to the right (my blog) to learn how to. NB! The extension uses the reverse function which was not implemented correctly in Inkscape v1.0.1 so you will need to update the paths.py. Read howto in the link.

Make Page Tileable
Scott Pakin
Make Page Tileable clones all objects that straddle an edge of the page to make the page as a whole tileable. This can be useful for making background patterns for webpages, textures for games and raytraced scenes, tiling patterns for autostereograms, and other places where seamless repetition is desired. To run the extension, simply select Extensions → Page → Make Page Tileable. If no objects are selected then all objects on the page will be cloned. Otherwise, only the selected objects will be cloned. Each set of clones is placed in a group so their positions can be adjusted in unison.

Ids to text elements
whidev
A simple Inkscape extension that lets you extract attributes (like id) from all selected paths, and show them as <text> elements inside the paths. Useful for when you want to have all paths' id shown on the SVG document as <text> nodes. You can also use it for other path attributes, like `label`, `fill`, `stroke`, `width`, `height`. Available under the Extensions > Text submenu. Check the extension's repo on GitHub for examples. Options for styling and formatting the text: Font size in pixels Color (the fill color of the <text> elements) Font (should be installed on the system) Font Weight (should be supported by the selected font) Angle (controls the rotation of the generated <text> elements, in degrees) Options for further editing the extracted text (only used with id and label attributes): Text to replace (a simple replace function to remove characters you may not want from the text) Match Regular Expression (matches the extracted text of each path to a regular expression and uses the result on the path, e.g. if the id is `Province_055` and this field `\d+`, the text on the path will be just `055`) Capitalize (capitalize all text) Group paths with the generated text elements (if checked, also group the path with its text label) Note: only works on <path> elements. If you have a <circle>, <rectangle>, <text>, etc., first use Object > Object to Path to convert it. For Inkscape v0.92 and before, you should check the extension's repository on GitHub.

Simple extension to render IFS fractals from a base image, by repeatedly duplicating and transforming selected objects.

DXF calibration frame for Silhouette Studio
Ellen Wasbø
Silhouette Studio Basic Edition can not open SVG files, only DXF. The scaling of the design is lost when importing the DXF file. Adding a frame around the design matching the size it will be forced into when imported to Silhouette Studio will cause the scaling to be kept. For a quick way of doing this I created an extension with the option to add a frame matching the 8x12in or 12x12in cutting mat and media size in Silhouette Studio. More details on how this works in the Link.

Inkscape extension for creating generative art. The scope of this extension has been kept very minimal. It simply takes the selected object(s) and creates the specified number of copies of it. Each new copy will have a cumulative transformation applied to it where each transformation consists of - a rotation around 0,0 (top left of the canvas), - a shift in x and y, and - a scale operation in x and y. The rotation and shift operation can be done either lineraly (the same amount for every copy) or by a sinusidal factor (oscillating for each copy).

path animation
katkitty
Create svg path animation from frames. A path can be animated as follows: <path d="{orignal frame}"> <animate attributeName="d" attributeType="XML" begin="0s" dur="0.73" repeatCount="2" values="{frame1};{frame2}[;{framen}]"> </path> Most browsers will draw the path, then animate it, interpolating between the paths in the animate values list. Some i-phone browsers do not animate. Grrr. To use: Place each frame of the animation in a layer named 'frame{n}'. Each of these layers should have the same number of paths, and each path should have the same number of points as the corresponding path in other layers. The animation is applied to the paths in the first layer in the sequence, so the properties of that layer are used. Animations with different numbers of frames can be put into different sequences, named 'sequence{n}', using sub-groups: Layers: > not_animated_layer1 > sequence1 >> frame1 >>> path1a >>> path2a >> frame5 >>> path1b >>> path2b >> frame2 >>> path1c >>> path2c >> frame4 >>> path1d >>> path2d > sequence5 >> frame >> frame >> frame NOTE, any numbers on frames or sequence are ignored. The z order of frames and paths determine their position in the animation. SUGGESTION: Set all frames but the first to not display or even delete them before using the animated SVG in a browser. Experiment with different duration times for each path. NOTE: The pop-up box does not close after creating the animate node. The node appears under the paths in the first frame of each sequence. NOTE: Inkscape does NOT run the animation! You need to load the svg into a web browser to see it.

Simpleinkscape.V0.1
Mr. Raven
This extension changes the Inkscape interface into a simpler one. It hides quite some elements from the menus and toolbars so that a more basic version of the interface remains. This can be useful for educational purposes. It is very easy to use and you can always go back to the default Inkscape user interface. After installing the extension, you restart Inkscape, open the menu 'Extensions', submenu 'Interface' and then 'Simple Inkscape'. It explains itself. This extension was made in collaboration with @Kirstie, one of the users of the Inkscape forum and writer of a very good Dutch book about Inkscape. She made the changes to the ui, I made the extension that installs or removes them. There are two forum topics about this extension. https://inkscape.org/forums/extensions/simple-inkscape-what-items-do-we-want/ https://inkscape.org/forums/extensions/simple-inkscape-extension-children-education-learning-simplified-user-interface/ It works in Windows and Linux for Inkscape 1.0 and above. Lower versions of Inkscape will not work. Mac is currently not supported since I have no Mac to test it on. It will simply give an error message on Mac. If anyone who has a Mac wants to help me test it, I believe I can make it work for Mac as well. Please contact me if you want to help me with it. If you have questions - please feel free to ask. I would also be interested to know if the extension is used and what it is used for so that I can keep that in mind for future versions. So if use it - leave a post if you like.

Delaunay Triangulation
Scott Pakin
This extension is similar to the Voronoi Diagram extension in Delaunay Triangulation mode in that it generates triangulations. The difference is that the Delaunay Triangulation extension triangulates all points in all selected objects while the Voronoi Diagram extension considers only object centroids.

incadiff
Thomas Maziere
Apply successive difference operations on superimposed paths. Useful for plotter addicts as it removes hidden strokes. I use it on Processing generative art, before plotting it with an Axidraw. Select fewer than 64 shapes/paths at a time for performance reasons. Developed thanks to Incaya, a french worker cooperative.

Get and set glyph IDs
Ellen Wasbø
A previous extension (setIDs.py) is now updated for Inkscape v1.1 with some extra features. This extension is used together with the Custom Stroke Font extension to streamline the process of font creating. There are two extensions; get and setGlyphIDs. The getGlyphIDs will fetch all path ids for the glyphs when editing an existing svg-font. The process of editing the paths frequently mess up the path ids and the order of the paths. Then the fetched IDs (or a custom string input) can be used with the setGlyphIDs when the font template is ready to generate the new svg-font. When using the setGlyphIDs, the individual characters of the string is set as path ids for the glyphs left to right as seen on screen (use one row when generating the font template from Custom Stroke Font). Known issue: If a glyph have path id " (doublequote) the extension might fail. Temporarly change that path id to something else (f.x. 'temp') and it should work.

Reverse Order of Subpaths
Ellen Wasbø
When drawing paths and then combining these the order will be from the last to the first drawn. Use this simple extension to reverse the order of the subpaths without reversing the direction of each subpath. Then the original drawn order will be restored. The extension can be found from Extensions > Modify Path. Tested with v1.0.1, v1.0.2 and v1.1 on Windows 10 Use together with the Number Subpaths extension to visualize the effect of this reordering.

Imaseq Helper
Croben
WHAT IS IMASEQ HELPER? Imaseq Helper is a free and open-source extension for Inkscape 1.0, released under the GPL version 3 license. This extension allows you to export PNG images by visibility or layers. You can also choose to make the extension duplicate a layer base on a setting, which is a common task when making a frame by frame animation. FEATURES • Export PNG image(s) to a fixed directory. • Export images using the layer name as a file name. • Batch export of rectangles or layers with incremented naming option. • Duplicate layers with incremented name and opacity of your choice. VIDEO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYXFYsGfj7U HOW IT WORKS? To make the extension work, you will have to create a layer that has a “rectangle object” in it. And it has to be a rectangle object, not a circle or rectangle path. This rectangle object will serve as a selection export area. Everything visible within the bounds of the rectangle will be exported as a PNG image. INSTALLATION 1. You must have Inkscape 1.0 installed. 2. Close Inkscape if it is open. 3. Copy or move the imaseq_helper.inx and imaseq_helper.py into Inkscape extension folder. • On Mac and Linux it is in ~/.config/inkscape/extensions. • On Windows it is in C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions. 4. Launch Inkscape. If you install it correctly, you should see “Imaseq Helper” on “Export” sub-menu under the “Extensions” menu. HOW TO USE? 1. Select an “Export Mode” • None – The extension will not export anything. • Visible – Everything visible within the rectangle object gets exported as a single PNG image. • All Layers – Every layer except for the bounds and sub-layers will get exported individually. 2. Set a “Bounds Layer” • Create a new layer, name it, then type the name on the input field. • Add a “rectangle object” and make sure it’s big enough and position it to capture the target view. 3. Give it a “File Name” • You can choose to input a file name or leave it blank to use the layer name. 4. Choose a “Directory” • Set a folder where exported images will be saved. 5. To “Overwrite” or not • If not checked existing file will not be overwritten unless the “Export Mode” is “All Layers” 6. Set image “DPI” • To determine the desired DPI select the “rectangle object,” open export window (Shift+Ctrl+E), go to the "Selection" tab, in the "Image size" section, you can see the DPI. • If you want to export using the dimensions of the rectangle object, you can set the DPI to a number lower than one like zero. 7. To “Duplicate Layer” or not • On the “Layer Settings” tab, you can set to duplicate the selected layer if the “Export Mode” is “Visible” or “None” 8. Set “Layer Opacity” • This slider will determine the opacity of the duplicated layer. FRIENDLY TIPS 1. Using “Multiple” Rectangle Objects • Will not guarantee correct file name order, because the rectangles may get exported randomly. In this case, consider moving the target images to its own layer and use “All Layers” as the export mode. 2. Setting Export Mode To “All Layers” • This mode produces temporary files equal to or more than the number of layers to be exported. Therefore, you are advised to clean these temporary at your convenience. • Setting a file name will not guarantee correct naming order, because layers may get exported randomly. So it is best to leave the file name blank and use the layer name instead. 3. Fixed Background For All Exports • If you have a background on a separate layer and want it to be visible on every export. You can make the background layer a child of the bounds layer. Just make sure you set the alpha or opacity of the rectangle object to zero. 4. Child Layers Are Not Exported Individually • If you have a group of layers, only the parent layer is exported. But if the child layers are visible, then they too will be captured on the exported image. 5. Export Using The Dimensions Of The Rectangle Object • If you set the DPI to zero, the dimension of the rectangle object will be used as the dimension of the image. But keep in mind that if the dimension in “pixels” is not a “whole number,” it will be rounded to the nearest one. Example 24.1 pixels will be 24 pixels, 99.5 pixels will be 100 pixels, etc. GITHUB PAGE https://github.com/crobengames/Imaseq-Helper

Inkscape 1.0alpha Source Code
Bryce Harrington
Inkscape 1.0alpha Release highlights Released on 2019-01-16. • Themeing support • Origin in top left corner (optional) • Canvas rotation and mirroring • Better hidpi screen support • Control width of PowerStroke with pressure sensitive graphics tablet • Fillet/chamfer LPE • New PNG export options • Path operations and deselection of a large number of paths are much faster now Important changes For users Custom Icon Sets Icon sets do no longer consist of a single file that contains all icons, but of single files for each icon. The directory structure must follow the standard structure for gnome icons. If you would like to create or convert your own icon set to the new format, please see the 'hicolor' and 'Tango' icon theme folders in your Inkscape installation 'share' directory for suitable examples. As a side effect of a bug fix to the icon preview dialog (see below), custom UI icon SVG files need to be updated to have their background color alpha channel set to 0 so that they display correctly (see Bug #1661989). Third-party extensions Third-party extensions need to be updated to work with this version of Inkscape. For extension writers [TBC - not final] Extensions have undergone some fundamental changes. Inkscape's stock extensions have been moved to their own repository and were updated for compatibility with Python 3. Internally, extensions have been reorganized and many functions have been deprecated. [Extension manager? How-to-guide for updating? New API elements? Documentation?] Instructions for updating old extensions are available at Updating your Extension for 1.0 Also note the changed command line options. For packagers and those who compile Inkscape • autotools builds have been dropped. Please use CMake for building Inkscape from now on. More info is available on our website. • libsoup dependency added: we use libsoup for making http requests without the need for dbus and gvfs. • Inkscape now uses a git submodule for the extensions directory. If you have cloned the repository and are not building from the release source code tarball, please note the updated build instructions • On Ubuntu 18.04, Gnome's fallback icon set (package 'adwaita-icon-theme-full'), that is needed to display Inkscape's default icons completely, is no longer automatically installed. It has been added as a 'recommends' level dependency. • lib2geom: [insert up-to-date info here] General: Application Several small performance improvements in various areas add up to make Inkscape run more smoothly than before (e.g. MR #448). General User Interface The user interface has been changed to using a more recent version of GTK+, the widget toolkit that Inkscape uses to draw the user interface on the screen. This new version brings a lot of improvements, especially for users of hidpi screens. Updating Inkscape for using it has been a large effort that has been anticipated eagerly for a long time, and was a focus of the Boston Hackfest. Window position / size Improvements and fixes to the code for handling/restoring window size and position [1] . The window manager handles most of the job now which should make it much more robust. If you still encounter problems with this, please report those to our bug tracker. HiDPI Icons [Please fill in] Y Axis Inversion During the Inkscape Hackfest in Kiel, a large change by Thomas Holder was integrated into the Inkscape codebase. It allows you to optionally set the origin of your document to the top left corner of the page. This finally makes the coordinates that you can see in the interface match the ones that are saved in the SVG data (unit conversions/transformations may be required), and makes working in Inkscape more comfortable for people who are used to this more standard behavior. • Option in the preferences' 'Interface' section Option in the preferences' 'Interface' section • Effect of the option (left upper page corner at 0/0) Effect of the option (left upper page corner at 0/0) Canvas Canvas Rotation With Ctrl+Shift+Scroll wheel the drawing area can be rotated and viewed from different angles. In the bottom right corner of the Window, the viewing angle can be entered manually. Right-click to select between a set of preset values. Keyboard shortcuts for clockwise/counter-clockwise/no rotation can be set in the preferences. Canvas rotation.gif Canvas Mirroring The canvas can now be flipped, to ensure that the drawing does not lean to one side, and looks good either way. The vertical/horizontal flipping is available from the menu View > Canvas orientation > Flip horizontally / Flip vertically. Keyboard shortcuts for flipping the canvas can be set in the preferences (Edit > Preferences > Interface > Keyboard shortcuts). Flip canvas 300px.gif Pinch-to-zoom On supported hardware (trackpad, touchpad, multi-touch screen), the canvas can be zoomed with the two-finger pinch gesture. Visible Hairlines Display Mode This new display mode is available under the "View->Display mode" menu. It ensures that all lines are visible, regardless of zoom level, while still drawing everything else normally. This is especially useful for some CNC machines like laser cutters and vinyl cutters which use hairlines to denote cut lines. Visible hairlines.gif Paths Changed behavior of Stroke to Path The 'Stroke to Path' command now not only converts the stroke of a shape to path, but effectively splits it into its components. In the case of applying it to a path that only has a stroke, the behavior is unchanged. For paths that don't only have a stroke, but also a fill and/or markers, the result will be a group consisting of: • Stroke outline turned to path • Fill (if there was one) • A group of all markers (if applicable; one group per marker, consisting of its outline and its fill turned into a path) Stroke to path.gif Unlinking Clones for Path Operations Clones and Symbols are now automatically unlinked, before a Boolean operation (union, difference, etc.), or one of the Path operations 'Combine', 'Break apart', or 'Stroke to Path' is performed. A setting in the preferences at Behavior → Clones → Unlink Clones allows to disable the automatic unlinking. Tools Calligraphy Tool A new option to add dots has been added to the tool. Click in place without moving the mouse to create a dot, Shift+Click to create a larger dot [needs documentation in keyboard shortcut list]. Circle Tool The circle tool can now also create closed ("filleted") circle shapes (closed arcs) with the click of a button. • Circle tool shapes in this release Circle tool shapes in this release Eraser New option to erase as clip, which allows to non-destructively erase (parts of) all kinds of elements, including raster images and clones. Erase with clip.gif Measurement Tool Hovering over a path with the tool now displays the length, height, width and position of the path. If you hover over a group, it will show the width, height and position of the group. Holding Shift switches to showing info about the constituents of the group. The tool also has a new option to only measure selected objects when using click-and-drag. • New info text from measurement tool (for a group) New info text from measurement tool (for a group) • Measurement tool info text for a single path (in a group with Shift) Measurement tool info text for a single path (in a group with Shift) • Measuring only the selected object (the ice cap) Measuring only the selected object (the ice cap) Pencil Tool PowerPencil Pressure sensitivity can now be enabled for the Pencil tool. This feature makes use of the PowerStroke Live Path Effect (LPE). New settings for the tool are available for tweaking the behavior of the PowerStroke LPE when it is being created with the Pencil tool (and a graphics tablet/stylus): • Use pressure input (in the tool controls bar): activates the PowerStroke feature, if a pressure sensitive device is available. • Min/Max (in the tool controls bar): determines the minimal and maximal stroke width (0 to 100%). This does not change the number of available pressure levels, but spreads them out in the available line width interval. • Additionally, the PowerStroke LPE itself has been improved, to better work when used in this new way, see the section about LPE updates. • Pressure change for new knot (in the global Inkscape preferences, Edit > Preferences > Tools > Pencil): adds a PowerStroke Knot when the stylus pressure changes by this percentage. [needs video/gif] Clipping / Masking Clip paths and masks now have an inverse mode in the menu, using the PowerClip and PowerMask LPEs. Inverse clip 400.gif Live Path Effects Live Path Effects received a major overhaul, with lots of improvements and new features. The main changes are: • Set default parameters: default values for any LPE can be set in the respective LPE's dialog, when it is applied to an object (Note: we have the 'multiple desktop preferences' problem here: If you have multiple Inkscape windows open, the last one will determine what will be saved to the preferences file, as preferences changes are only saved when Inkscape is closed, and the settings are only loaded from file when a new window is opened. ) • Clip and Mask: improved handling • Fix multiple LPE BBox: a problem with the size of the bounding box when applying multiple LPEs to an object has been fixed • Knots on shapes: show edit knots in LPE shapes • Switch knots: change the handles to the correct LPE handles when one selects an LPE in the list of active LPEs for the selected object. In addition to this, the LPE list now features an icon for each LPE (TBC). • Set default values for Mirror LPE Set default values for Mirror LPE Boolean Operations LPE [The Boolean Operations LPE finally makes non-destructive boolean operations available in Inkscape. It works by adding the LPE to a path, then linking a copied path to it by clicking on the 'link to path' button. That way, two [more?] paths can be combined to a single shape, and both are still editable. Available options: • union • symmetric difference • intersection • division • difference • cut outside • cut inside • cut ] functionality incomplete currently, does not hide linked operand, see https:/ /gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/merge_requests/20#note_100799480 • Boolean Operations LPE Boolean Operations LPE BSPline and Spiro Improvements in Pen/Pencil mode. With "Alt", you can move the previous node. 'Clone Original' Improvements This path effect now allows various objects instead of only paths and is even more powerful. Demo Video Demo Video Dash Stroke LPE This new LPE creates uniformly dashed paths, optionally by subdividing the path's segments, or including dashes that are symmetrically wrapped around corners. • Rectangles with dash stroke LPE with various settings Rectangles with dash stroke LPE with various settings Demo Video Ellipse from Points This new LPE creates an optimally fitted ellipse from a path's nodes. In contrast to the already existing LPE "Ellipse by 5 points" this LPE is more flexible (since, depending on the number of points available, it can fit both circles and ellipses) and has more features. Especially technical illustrators can benefit from these features. See LPE:_Ellipse_from_Points for a documentation. • Ellipse (5 nodes), circle (3 nodes), circle segment (3 nodes), isometric circle (3 nodes), isometric circle with frame (3 nodes) Ellipse (5 nodes), circle (3 nodes), circle segment (3 nodes), isometric circle (3 nodes), isometric circle with frame (3 nodes) Embroidery Stitch LPE This new LPE can add nodes to your paths and create jump stitches, to create data that can be converted for use with a stitching machine. To view the stitches that you added, activate the 'Show stitches' checkbox, and, if necessary, adjust the 'Show stitch gap' value, so you can see the single stitches. There are various options for calculating the order of the stitching, for connecting the parts of the drawing and 3 different stitch patterns available. It is suggested to play around with these until you like the result. For exporting your data, you can, for example, use the HPGL file format and go from there. • Inkscape Logo with Embroidery LPE (stitches made visible) Inkscape Logo with Embroidery LPE (stitches made visible) • Options: left: methods to order subpaths, right: methods to connect end points of subpaths Available options: left: methods to order subpaths, right: methods to connect end points of subpaths Fill Between Many / Fill Between Strokes LPE New options added: • Fuse coincident points: [describe] • Join subpaths: [describe] • Close: [describe] • LPEs on linked: [describe] (Fill Between Many only) Fillet/Chamfer LPE This new LPE adds fillet and chamfer to paths. Also adds a new internal class that allows to handle extra info per node, the LPE itself is an example of use the new classes. Demo video • Chamfer by LPE Chamfer with LPE • Chamfer with 2 steps Chamfer with 2 steps • Inverse Chamfer with 2 steps Inverse Chamfer with 2 steps • Fillet with LPE Fillet with LPE • Inverse fillet with LPE Inverse fillet with LPE Knot LPE New options added: • Inverse: use the stroke width of the other path as basis for calculating the gap length • Add stroke width: make the gap wider by adding the width of the stroke to the value for the gap length • Add bottom (other?) stroke width: make the gap wider by adding the width of the bottom (other?) stroke to the value for the gap length • Crossing signs: [not final] Measure Segments LPE This new path effect adds DIN and custom style measuring lines to "straight" segments in a path. Demo video • Measure Segments LPE Measure Segments LPE Mirror Symmetry and Rotate Copies LPE • Split feature: This new feature allows custom styles for each part of the resulting drawing without unlinking the LPE. Demo Video • The LPE display now updates accordingly when there are objects added or removed. • Separate styles for rotated copies Separate styles for rotated copies Power Clip and Power Mask LPE This new LPE adds options to clips and masks. PowerStroke LPE Improvements • Width scale setting added: adjust the overall width of the stroke after it has been drawn. • Closed paths: PowerStroke now works much better on closed paths. Import / Export Linking and embedding SVG files On import of an SVG file, there is now a dialog that asks if the user would like to link to the SVG file, to embed it (base64 encoded) into an <img> tag, or if the objects in the SVG file should be imported into the document (which was how Inkscape handled importing SVG files previously). [ TBC: The dpi value for displaying embedded SVG files can be set in the import dialog.] This makes importing SVG files work (almost) the same as importing raster images. The 'Embed' and 'Extract' options in the context menu for linked SVG files work the same as they do for raster images. The 'Edit externally' option will open the linked SVG file with Inkscape per default. This setting can be changed in the preferences' 'Imported Images' section. The displaying of the dialog can be disabled by checking the 'Don't ask me again' option. Linked and embedded SVG images are displayed as their raster representations. The resolution used for displaying them [TBC: can be set per image? can be set in the xxx dialog for the selected image] is the default image import resolution set in the preferences' 'Imported Images' section. A change in this option will take effect upon closing and reopening the file, and will affect all linked SVG images in the file. Export PNG images The export dialog has received several new options which are available when you expand the 'Advanced' section. • Enable interlacing (ADAM7): when loading images, they will be displayed faster • Bit depth: set the number of bits that code for the color of a pixel, supports grayscale and up to 16bit • Compression type: choose strength of lossless compression • pHYs dpi: force-set a dpi value for the image • Antialiasing: choose type of antialiasing or disable it • PNG export options PNG export options • PNG bit depth options PNG bit depth options • PNG compression options PNG compression options • PNG antialiasing options PNG antialiasing options Extensions Extension development • All INX Parameters now have the common attribute indent="n" where n specifies the level of indentation in the extension UI. • Add appearance="url" for INX Parameters of type "description". You can now add clickable links to your extension UI. Plot extension The new option 'Convert objects to paths' will take care of converting everything to a path non-destructively before the data is sent to the plotter. [gives wrong error message, maybe not working? https://gitlab.com/inkscape/ inkscape/commit/dd3b6aa099175e2244e1e04dde45bf21a966425e#note_100908512] Palettes The Munsell palette has been added to Inkscape's set of stock palettes. • Munsell palette Munsell palette Templates • The Desktop template has new options for 4k, 5k and 8k screens. • A new template for an A4 3-fold roll flyer was added. • New template options for 'Desktop' template New template options for 'Desktop' template • New A4 3-fold roll flyer template New A4 3-fold roll flyer template SVG and CSS • Dashes: Inkscape can now load and display files with dashes and/or dashoffsets defined in other units than the unitless user unit (e.g. %, mm) correctly. There is no user interface for editing these values currently, except for the XML editor. Values for the dasharray that are entered in other units (except for %) will be converted to user units when the new values are set. • [Please fill in] Dialogs Document Properties • When resizing the page, the page margin fields can now be locked, so the same value will be used for all margins, but only needs to be entered once. • The guides panel now has controls to lock or unlock all guides, create guides around the page, and delete all guides. These actions also appear on the Edit menu, making it possible to assign custom keyboard shortcuts. • Grids can now be aligned to the corners, edge midpoints, or centre of the page with a button click in the grids panel. • Lock to set same margins for page resizing Lock to set same margins for page resizing • Document properties: Toggle guide lock for document, create page border guides, remove all guides Document properties: Toggle guide lock for document, create page border guides, remove all guides • Grid alignment options in document properties Grid alignment options in document properties Preferences • The Bitmaps subsection has been renamed to Imported Images, as it now applies to both imported (embedded or linked) raster images as well as to imported (embedded or linked) SVG images (i.e. to everything in <img> tags). • The System subsection lists more relevant folders and offers buttons to open those folders with the system's file browser. This makes it easier to find the correct folder, e.g. for resetting the preferences or for adding an extension or a new icon set. • The System subsection now has a button for quickly resetting all Inkscape preferences. • An option for scaling a stroke's dash pattern when scaling the stroke width has been added and can be found at Behaviour → Dashes. It is activated by default. • Autosave is now enabled by default. The default directory has changed (the path is displayed in Edit > Preferences > Input/Output > Autosave: Autosave directory). • Important folders can be opened from the preferences Important folders can be opened from the preferences Symbols • The Symbols dialog can now handle a lot of symbols without delay on startup, and also allows searching. Symbols and symbol sets now displayed in alphabetical order. • Symbol sets ordered alphabetically Symbol sets ordered alphabetically • Searching for symbols Searching for symbols Filter Editor • The filter primitives now also have a symbolic icon (one whose color can be changed). Customization Customize all files in the share folder All files in /share can be over-ridden by placing files in the user's configuration folder (e.g. ~/.config/inkscape). Configurable contents now includes extensions, filters, fonts, gradients, icons, keyboard shortcuts, preset markers, palettes, patterns, about screen, symbol sets, templates, tutorials and some user interface configuration files. Only the file 'units.xml' cannot be overridden. Fonts • Inkscape can now load fonts that are not installed on the system. By default Inkscape will load additional fonts from Inkscape's share folder (/ share/inkscape/fonts) and the user's configuration folder (~/.config/ inkscape/fonts). Custom folders can be set in preferences (see Tools → Text → Additional font directories). • Set custom font folders Set custom font folders Keyboard shortcuts • Allow to use "Super", "Hyper" and "Meta" modifier keys • Improve shortcut handling code. This should fix a lot of issues and allow to use a lot of shortcuts which were inaccessible before, especially on non-English keyboard layouts. User interface customization • Inkscape is starting to use glade files for its dialogs so they can be reconfigured by users. Only one is currently supported (filter editor). • The contents of the menus can be configured by customizing the menus.xml file. • Toolbar contents for the command bar (commands-toolbar.ui), the snap bar (snap-toolbar.ui), the tool controls bars for each tool (select-toolbar.ui), the toolbox (tool-toolbar.ui) is now configurable. • The file keybindings.rc allows you to... (TODO: do what? What does it do in comparison to keys.xml? Seems to not work at all... seems to be ancient. Can be deleted?) • The interface colors and some more UI styles can be customized in style.css (very raw themeing support). Theme selection In 'Edit > Preferences > User Interface > Theme', users can set a custom GTK3 theme for Inkscape. If the theme comes with a dark variant, activating the 'Use dark theme' checkbox will result in the dark variant being used. The new theme will be applied immediately. New theme folders can be added to the directory indicated in Edit > Preferences > System : User themes. A large selection of (more or less current) GTK3 themes is available for download at gnome-look.org Icon set selection In 'Edit > Preferences > User Interface > Theme', the icon set to use can be selected. By default, Inkscape comes with 'hicolor' and 'Tango' icons. In addition to this, it offers to use the system icons. Inkscape also comes with a default symbolic icon set as part of the hicolor icon set. These icons can be colorized in a custom color. Changes to the icon set take effect when Inkscape is restarted, or when the entire user interface is reloaded by clicking on the 'Reload icons' button. This rebuilds all Inkscape windows. Rebuild takes a couple of seconds, during which the Inkscape interface will be invisible. • Light theme and Tango icon set Light theme with Tango icon set • Light theme and hicolor icon set Light theme with hicolor icon set • Dark theme and symbolic icon set Dark theme with symbolic icon set • Dark theme with custom colored symbolic icon set Dark theme with symbolic icon set and a custom icon color Saving the current file as template A new entry for saving the current file as a template has been added to the 'File' menu. You need to specify a name for it, and optionally, you can add the template's author, a description and some keywords. A checkbox allows you to set the new template as the default template. • Save current file as a template Save current file as a template Custom page sizes in Document Properties Inkscape now creates a CSV file (comma separated values) called "pages.csv". It is located in your Inkscape user preferences folder, next to your 'preferences.xml' file. This file contains the default page sizes that you can choose from in the 'Page' tab of the 'Document properties' dialog. You can edit the pages.csv file to remove the page sizes you won't use, or to add new ones. Inkview Inkview was considerably improved and got some new features: • Support folders as input (will load all SVG files from the specified folder) The -r or --recursive option will even allow to search subfolders recursively. • Implement -t or --timer option which allows to set a time after which the next file will be automatically loaded. • Add -s or --scale option to set a factor by which to scale the displayed image. • Add -f or --fullscreen option to launch Inkview in fullscreen mode • Many smaller fixes and improvements Command Line The Inkscape command line has undergone a large overhaul. The most important changes are: • verbs/actions ....... • order of commands ....... • parallel exports .... • shell mode(s).... • ........ • Probably not in release: xverbs (command line commands that take parameters, e.g. for saving the selection under a specified filename as svg file) (mailing list thread) • New verb allows to swap fill and stroke from command line: EditSwapFillStroke (a keyboard shortcut can now be assigned to it) (bug 675690) • Files can now also be saved as Inkscape SVG without calling the GUI save dialog (new command: --export-inkscape-svg) • Inkscape can now import a specific page of a PDF file from the command line, for batch processing (new option: --pdf-page N) - does this still work after Tav's changes? Translations [as of 2019-01-08] Translations were updated for: • Basque • British English • Catalan • Croatian • Czech • French • German • Hungarian • Icelandic • Italian • Latvian • Romanian • Russian • Slovak • Spanish • Ukrainian • Swedish The installer was translated to: • Korean Notable Bugfixes • Symbols: Visio Stencils loaded from .vss files now use their actual name instead of a placeholder derived from the symbol file's name (bug 1676144) • Shapes on Pen and Pencil tools now retain color and width (bug:1707899). • Text and Font dialog: The font selection no longer jumps to the top of the list when clicking Apply. • Docked dialogs now open on their own when the corresponding functionality is called from a menu or button [TBC: Bug: if minimized, this requires a second click] • The icon preview dialog now correctly shows the page background (Bug # 1537497). • Improved UI performance of handling large paths and selections: □ Accelerated path break-apart and Boolean operations by disabling intermittent canvas rendering during these operations. □ Accelerated "deselect" speed by improving internal data structure algorithms.

Drawing Stick Figures

Exponential X-Axis
Jürgen Weigert
This Inkscape extension transforms an object along the x-axis. The bounding box remains unchanged. Points near the center of the object move to create the illusion of a curved surface. Points move left, if you choose an exponent > 1, and right if the exponent is < 1. An exponent of 1.0 does exactly nothing. This can be used in combination with the bend path effect to create a cone projection that retains aspect ratio. Idea from Simon Budig while preparing for the lampshade workshop.

Luthier Fret Ruler
Neon22
An Inkscape extension that draws full sized Fretboards for stringed instruments. Guitar, Ukulele, Banjo, Dulcimer, etc Appears in Extensions menu under Music. Will draw a fret ruler in three useful ways: 1. Ruler - ideal as a Lasercut metal rule or paper printout, 2. Template - to be used as a guide in a router or table saw, - e.g. https://youtu.be/0niBEfb5csk?t=95 3. Full neck to be printed and glued onto the neckstock for accurate sawing and marking. Includes fret marker placement and tapered necks. Scales: The fretboard can be drawn with a single scale or in a fanned format with two scales, on the bass and treble sides of the fretboard. The methods for constructing scales are: - 12th root of 2 - ratios of 17.817, 17.835, or 18 - scala files. Also draws a curved arc template for curved fretboards. This is in two styles: 1. Block - to be extruded into a sanding block or neck support. Possibly using the Inkscape to openscad extension to export to an STL for 3D printing. or: 2. Thin finger-like tabs to set the correct heights of strings at the saddle. Be sure to unzip the scales zip enclosed into the same directory. It will create a scales folder with 4580 interesting .scl (scala) files to choose from. There is a special tab in the extension for finding useful scales in this enormous resource. Works in Inkscape 1.0 - 1.3

Openclosedpath
Ellen Wasbø
This extension will open up closed paths by removing all z-commands from the selected paths. My purpose: to use single line svg-fonts as otf/ttf/opf fonts. These font formats require closed paths and will add a closing command to the glyphs. This closing can be removed by converting the text to paths, ungroup and then using this extension.

Number subpaths
Ellen Wasbø
Visualize the order of subpaths within one path. Each start and end node will be marked with green/red dots and a text flag according to its order. Optionally the path ID could be visualized if working with more than one combined path. I use this for various projects where combining paths is needed and the order is of importance - embroidery designs, developing and testing extensions for cutting/plotting. This extension is based on the Inkscape included extension Visualize Path > Number Nodes by Aaron Spike from 2005. Number Subpaths can be found in the same menu when installed. Tested for v1.01, v1.02 and v1.1 on Windows 10.

Horizontal Lines Effect (hlines)
Sue Zakar
Inkscape extension for "unwinding" paths For each selected path element consisting of straight segments, this extension creates an additional path element consisting of horizontal line segments which are the same size as the original line segments. Installing: Copy hlines.inx and hlines.py into your Inkscape user extensions directory. Where is that? Open Inkscape and go to the System section of the Preferences menu (Edit --> Preferences --> System). You will find a User extensions item containing the path to your user extensions directory. NOTE: As of this time, this extension works under Inkscape 1.0, but not the 1.1 release candidate. However, it will work on 1.1 (and above) by commenting out line 45 of hlines.py and uncommenting line 46. Update: 06/24/2021 new version handles transforms better

hugo_at_prover
This extension opens up a dialog that allows the user to set some Prover iLock specific attributes. The attributes decide how Prover iLock will display the svg file, in particular they are used to associate layers to "visualization features" that are used to dynamically change the drawn symbol based on the current state in the tool.

Localization / translation example extension
Nikki.Smith
For extension developers. This minimal extension pulls together some helpful documentation about adding localization to an extension, including where the translation files go and what gettext commands to use on both Windows and Linux. Now includes localized text in the Python script. Also many small changes that result in a much higher pylint code score.
