I am trying to scatter a series of bricks along a semi-circle. I copied a brick from a photo in photoshop, saved it as a jpeg, brought it into inkscape and it scattered just like you want around he semi-circle.
However, instead of gray mortar between the bricks, it was white. When I cropped out all all but the red brick color in PS, and brought it into Inkscape to scatter it, it would not work. Got the "Must have two path objects. So I traced it and that produced a brick with node handles. But when I tried to scatter along the semi-circle I got this message.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pathscatter.py", line 295, in <module>

I have run out of ideas.
Removing duplicated nodes in the arc works here.
