Rounded Corners
crowhoot
Rounded Corners Version 1.3 by Chris Hawley This effect is designed to round off the corners on shapes made with the pencil tool. It will round off corners made of straight edges, while ignoring bezier lines. Corners that are too short for the desired radius will also be ignored. It does not work on Inkscape objects like the rectangle or star - the user must convert objects to paths before using this extension. Installation and usage instructions are at https://github.com/hawley577/Inkscape-Rounded-Corners/wiki Download the latest version on github: https://github.com/hawley577/Inkscape-Rounded-Corners

Imagetracer.js for Inkscape
Mario Voigt
This extension is an InkScape wrapper for https://github.com/jankovicsandras/imagetracerjs. It utilized a standalone node.js executable to run the JavaScript code. It will be fed with embedded or linked images within InkScape. The big difference between this tracer and all other tracers in recent InkScape is the fact that it is capable of splitting an image into it's "isles". The regular tracers separate by colors but not by objects. That makes it hard to work with sometimes. Imagetracer.js will vectorize your beautiful image into a more beautiful SVG trace with separated infills (break apart into single surfaces like a puzzle), that means you get a lot of single areas. works for Linux and Windows

Line Animator (draw by invisible hand)
Maren Hachmann
Create simple, line-drawing animations for the web from selected paths. When you look at the file that you've applied the extension to using a web browser, it will look as if someone were drawing the paths with an invisible pen. Notes: * Find the extension as `Extensions > Animation > Line Animator` * **Only path objects** can be used for this. * **No path effects** should be applied to the paths (something may happen, but perhaps not what you expect). * The paths must have **a visible stroke** (else you won't see anything happen). * The object **lowest in stacking order** will be drawn **first**, then the one above it etc. * Animation speed can be changed by using the same animation name and selecting the same objects, then setting a different duration. * If you are animating a path consisting of **multiple subpaths**, all of them will start to be animated **at the same time**, but the shorter ones will finish first. * If you want to **change the direction** in which a path is drawn, change the path direction in Inkscape (`Path > Reverse`). Examples -------- See https://gitlab.com/Moini/ink_line_animator/-/blob/master/README.md Installation ------------ Drop the files `line-animator.py` and `line-animator.inx` into your user extensions directory. Learn where to find the directory in Inkscape: `Edit > Preferences > System > User extensions`. License ------- This software is licensed under the GPL v2.0 or higher. Note ---- Due to a bug in Inkscape (https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/issues/9327), Inkscape 1.3 instantly crashes when you open the Selectors and CSS dialog. So don't do that!

RealScale (resize by line of known length)
Maren Hachmann
Quickly resize (architectural) drawings by indicating a line and its length in real world units. Optionally scale the drawing with a specific scale factor and draw a scale rule. Version 1.2, Inkscape extension for Inkscape 1.2 and higher. Download most current version from here: https://gitlab.com/Moini/inkscape-realscale-extension/-/archive/master/inkscape-realscale-extension-master.zip Installation: Copy the files realscale.py and realscale.inx into the directory indicated in Edit -> Preferences -> System: User extensions Usage: • Import an architectural drawing / floor plan / map /... into Inkscape or open a file containing one. Make sure it is a single object (group it, if necessary). • Draw a straight line that connects two points in that drawing of which you know the distance in real life (for example, if you know how long a wall of your house in the drawing is, draw the line from one end of the wall to the other). • Select the line, then add the drawing to the selection. • Open the extension dialog: Extensions -> Scaling -> RealScale... • Enter the length of the line you just drew, as it is in the real world (for example, if your house wall is 10.5 m long, enter 10.50. • Select the unit you used (for your 10.50 m house, select m; for your 10 cm cardboard box, select cm) • If you intend to print the drawing, and the original object is bigger than the sheet, consider using a scale factor. • To do so, first select if you want to use a metric scale factor (based on mulitples of 5) or an imperial one (based on multiples of 2) or if you would like to enter your own scale factor. • Then, in the corresponding dropdown, or in the number entry field, select or enter the scale you would like to use. The dropdowns only offer scale factors for downscaling. In the 'Custom' field, however, you can also enter values smaller than 1 to upscale a drawing. • If you would like the scale rule to be drawn on the page, check the option 'Generate Scale Rule'. • Now choose the number of units the scale rule will comprise. Those will be doubled in the generated scale rule - e.g. it will show 10 cm to the left of the scale rule center (labelled 0) and 10 cm to its right. • Apply!

Contour Scanner And Trimmer
Mario Voigt
This tool helps you to find nasty contours which might bug you and prevent your work from being ready for production. It will find open contours, closed contours and self-intersecting contours. Self-intersecting contours can be closed or open contours so you can select this option additionally! Bentley-Ottmann algorithm is used to check for those intersections. The algorithm works with the accuracy of the selected paths (epsilons). Self-intersections usually happen if you just have large overlaps where the contour crosses itself like an 'eight' character for example. Using the highlighting it's easy to find contours with unproper path handles. While in a CAD system an area of of a surface can only be calculated if the contour is closed and clean, finding self intersections in InkScape is not required to do so. SVG format allows to calculate areas on open contours and self-twisted curves. This "artwork behaviour" makes it harder for handling machinery-like drawings for laser cutting, vinyl cutting or whatever. That's why we need to have extra sanity checks but we also have the great freedom of Inkscape. Finding self-intersecting contours does only work for curves with straight line segments (polylines) because it just calculates with a set of given XY points. It does not respect bezier curve segments. Bezier curves have no regular points but special handles, which define the slope of the curve per handle side (left and right). To properly handle a bezier curve we need to split the bezier curve in a lot of small linear segments (acting like infinitessimal solution). We can use the tool "Flatten Bezier to do this (will make your curve looking edgy or ugly possible). If you want to leave the shape of the line clean (bezier type, no edgy approximation) we can use Split Bezier (Subdivide) or Add Nodes instead. But remember that your calculated self-intersection points will only be an approximation then. The higher the subdivide count is the higher the precision of the calculated self-intersecting points coordinates will be.

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

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.

Slic3r STL Input
Mario Voigt
STL Sliced Import (by Slic3r). Supports OBJ/OFF/PLY/STL as input file formats. How it works: - projects an STL file on the X-Y plane by cutting the objects into "slices" - each "slice" is a group of polygons, with a label indicating its z position - the polygons are converted to paths for better editing in inkscape - use Object → Rows & Columns → distribute the slices in a grid Warning: Requires Slicer 1.3.1-dev (the really latest build possible) docs: https://stadtfabrikanten.org/display/IFM/Slic3r+STL+Input based on stl input extension of Jürgen Weigert.

Tabgen 3D Papercraft Extension
Sue Zakar
Tabgen Papercraft Extension for Inkscape 1.1 by Obzerving Use the tabgen extension to add tabs on pieces for assembling papercraft projects. Please read the important setup info below. After installing, it is available under Extensions->Papercraft->Tabgen Using it is very simple and straightforward. Select the path that you want to put tabs on. Run the extension. It will generate a new piece with tabs along the outside edge, and/or any enclosed path (i.e. along the inside of cutouts.) The tabs have scorelines. The path MUST contain only straight segments, as tabs cannot be generated on curves. Every segment will create a tab, so eliminate stray nodes. New version allows for selective tab placement. Options/Parameters The angle of the tab is the angle used at the edges of the tab. The height of the tab is how far away from the path the tab extends. The length of the dashline is how large any one cuts making up the score line is. Making this number too large may result in missing score marks. If zero is used, the score line will be solid, and will not be part of the path, but will be a separate path grouped with it. The choice for tab placement are outside, inside and both. This affects whether tabs are placed along the outer path, inner paths (holes), or both. Dimension units are the units in which you specify your setting for height and length. Keep this consistent with your document parameters.

Paperfold
Mario Voigt
Paperfold is another flattener for triangle mesh files, heavily based on https://github.com/felixfeliz/paperfoldmodels by Felix Scholz aka felixfeliz. Possible input files are STL, Wavefront OBJ, PLY and OFF. To run this you need to install OpenMesh with python pip. The algorithm of paperfoldmodels consists of three steps: - Find a minimum spanning tree of the dual graph of the mesh. - Unfold the dual graph. - Remove self-intersections by adding additional cuts along edges. Reference: The code is mostly based on the algorithm presented in a by Straub and Prautzsch (https://geom.ivd.kit.edu/downloads/proj-paper-models_cut_out_sheets.pdf).

Chipscratches
Andrew Kurn
This extension creates visual noise of various kinds, using 3 ingredients, scratches, chips, and specks. Extensions -> Generate -> Noise -> ChipScratches The 3 ingredients go into 3 Inkscape groups. Where they are in the tree is controlled by the object selected at the time the extension is called. They become sisters of the selected object, under the same parent. If there is no selection, they go to the root level. In the text below, each * indicates a settable parameter in the pop-up box. The extension fills a rectangle, which defaults* to the page size, or is width* by height*. The overall size* and number* of marks is set. However, for each of the 3, a multiplier changes the size* and number*. To get the overall value, just set the multiplier to 1.0 Also, each of the 3 may be separately enabled* or disabled. For each ingredient, it is possible to set the size to grow* with y. For this case, it is possible to set the size to a negative multiplier, so that it, when growing, will pass through zero somewhere in the middle of the box. For scratches, it is possible to change their orientation from vertical to angular*, radiating from the center of the box. (If so, growth is measured from the center.) The initial angle* and the change with distance* are set. For chips and specks, there are similar controls, except the angular ones, which are omitted. Last, there is the option to use a density gradient*. In the simple case, the probability of making a mark is the same everywhere. With a gradient, it changes from 0 to 1 across the box from left to right. -- Some of the features above may be of little use, while some omitted ones might be important. This is a beta version, so I await user feedback. I notice that the extension might take 5 seconds to run. Is this important? A bit of clean-up might help this. Two features that might slow it down considerably are clusters and collisions. Collisions, if implemented, would keep any 2 marks from landing on top of each other. Slow, because each mark must search all the previous marks. Clusters is some method of putting new marks near old ones. I think this would be especially useful for specks, which could be clustered around the end of scratches. Right now, they're uniform, and so fade into the background. Again, feedback? Technical note: This file may also be used to generate the inx file. (The bundled inx file was generated this way.) Set the global /inxGen/ =1 and run the file stand-alone. - AK Sept 2018

Dxf2papercraft

Unfold and import DXF into InkScape using dxf2papercraft. This is some kind of wrapper extension utilizing kabeja to convert the dxf output from dxf2papercraft into SVG. To make it work you need to install at least java. Works on Windows and Linux. dxf2papercraft itself is a tool to make flattened 2D output from a 3D DXF file. Note that kabeja and dxf2papercraft are really old tools. There might be a lot better solutions out there but this is a good starting point and it basically works :) You might have a look at https://inkscape.org/~MarioVoigt/%E2%98%85dxfdwg-importer and https://inkscape.org/~MarioVoigt/%E2%98%85inkscape-papercraft-unfold-stl too.

vpypetools - vpype for Inkscape
Mario Voigt
vpype is a command processor working with SVG files. It can do a lot of productive steps to optimize files for different purposes like pen plotting, laser cutting or the generation of creative artwork. vpype is really powerful and helps to extend Inkscape feature capability. vpype contains a lot of functionality which is included natively within Inkscape. The extension "vpype for Inkscape" does not deal with all features but with a set of important commands like linemerge, linesort, linesimplify, occult, etc. We can use it to shorten tool path lengths, remove hiddenlines and so on. vpype converts all elements into simple SVG elements like svg:line, svg:polyline and svg:polygon. They can be displayed properly in Inkscape, but they have no knot handles to edit (see https://alpha.inkscape.org/vectors/www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopicb51d.html?f=16&t=32562). We need to convert those elements to svg:path using key combination CTRL + SHIFT + C ("object to path"; do not use "stroke to path" because it will duplicate your outline with inset and outset contours). Our extension allows to do this conversion automatically. Documentation: https://stadtfabrikanten.org/display/IFM/vpypetools

Ungrouper And Element Migrator/Filter
Mario Voigt
This extension parses the selection and will put all elements into one single group. If you have a cluster with lots of groups and elements you will clean up this way (one top level group, all elements below it). If you select a single element or a set of elements you just wrap it like using CTRL + G (like making a usual group). You can also use this extension to filter out unwanted SVG elements at all. This tool is also able to drop elements with certain SVG tags to perform some kind of cleanup in the selection. You can drop elements like circle,ellipse,image,line,path,polyline,rect,text,tspan and some more. Notes: - includes "Remove Empty Groups" extension - includes "Apply Transformations" extension

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.

Ink dbus
inklinea
Ink Dbus ------------------------------------ 21.01.23 update to automatically detect the python path on windows so should work if you have installed Inkscape to non default folder. ------------------------------------ A test of the new dbus features of Inkscape 1.2.1+ This allows an Inkscape session to be controlled from a separate gui. It supports running basic macros. There are 3 branches of dbus actions: Application / Window / Document Choose an action - add a parameter if required, click run to activate the action. Double click the action to add to the macro list. The items in the macro list can be toggled on / off or deleted. The macro list supports drag reordering of items. You can set a number of repeats - for example you could simplify 72 times if you wanted to. For Ubuntu 20+ everything should work. For Windows 10+ The 'Window' branch of dbus does not work. I have raised an issue on Inkscape gitlab for this. Please note: It does help if you have some knowledge of how the command line works. Most of the Application dbus actions mirror the command line and its parameters. Some of the commands act as 'flags' which are set, for example if you set export-area-page to True, then it has to be set to False again before you can use export-area-drawing set to True. As a quirk export-area which takes dimensions, once used you cannot go back to export-area-page etc. for that session. This is a new feature of Inkscape - so be prepared for exciting things to happen unexpectedly.

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

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.

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.

Batch Add & Sort Symbol
RuaridhW
This emulates Inkscape v1.3 gui add_symbol action but also: -Adds each selected object individually NOT grouped as a single symbol. -Alpha-Numeric and Canvas Position sorting options. -Auto-labelling options. -Sorting adjusts object z-axis like Rob Antonishen's restack extn. *NEW* - Alpha-Numeric Sort can be interleaved with existing symbols. -Positional Sort does NOT interact with pre-existing symbols. New symbols added below existing. -Adds an editable Title element to symbol if object title blank. Allows easier retroactive symbol label/name adjustment. -Also includes Quick Add extn which batch adds selected objects unsorted. But .inx adjustable to create own preset of main extn; see readme.txt. -Help and Troubleshooting advice in extension dialogue -For use in managing symbol library file and is intended to aid symbol library creation only. Other uses not tested. -"Symbols Batch Sort and Add..." + "Quick Batch Add Symbols" Placed in Extensions>Symbols -As with any v1.3 extension can give keyboard shortcut. The premise for this extension is that the inbuild symbol add function only allows adding one symbol at a time; multiple selected objects added as a single grouped symbol. Also with 1.3 the symbol library is only displayed in z-axis order NOT alpha-numerically; whilst potential for sort options to be introduced in 1.3.1 in the interim z-axis sort is all that is available. Other Symbol management extensions available: -Alpha Sort (sorts All symbols in current file) -Batch Remove (with Quick Remove Selected) _____ v.1.3 (14/08/23) -Bug fix remove debugging errormsg pop up; no functional change. _____ v.1.2 (14/08/23) -Alpha-Numeric Sort can now be interleaved with existing symbols. _____ v.1.1 (12/08/23) -bug fix unsorted add -simplification of main dialogue tab and py code -Added auto-label number format option -Now 'quick add' + 'add and sort' run off same py. i.e. both .inx ref same .py -'Quick add' + 'add and sort' included in package. -Quick Add Settings guide to allow setting of own preferences(readme.txt)

Export to LaserGRBL for laser cutting
Nikki.Smith
This free extension for Inkscape speeds up preparation of laser cutting jobs by exporting Gcode to LaserGRBL (included with most laser cutters). Pick your model of laser and material / thickness from pulldown lists, then export a complex job directly into LaserGRBL with one click. Use different coloured lines for each part of a job. eg, red lines to engrave in a single pass at 3000 mm/min @ 80% power, but blue lines cut in 3 passes at 300 mm/min @ 90% power. The emphasis is on it being very easy to use, with the bare minimum of settings. v1.10 14/Oct/2024

Create Links (Breakaway Connectors)
Mario Voigt
To create tabs in Inkscape, we cannot properly use the integrated eraser tool. It will clip only in a cosmetic fashion but we do not get the real paths we need. Creating links (also known as microtabs, tabs, bridges, breakaway connectors, links, perforations) is sometimes required for laser cutting or vinyl cutting. This extension allows to pinch paths to create according segments - no cosmetic one's, but real segments. It will split up open or closed contours with user defined rules. To get best output please try to close open paths before using. Docs: https://stadtfabrikanten.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=104923235

Batch Remove Symbols
RuaridhW
This emulates Inkscape v1.3 gui remove_symbol action but also: -Removes symbols of selected clones on canvas OR ALL symbols and clones. -Also packaged is a Quick Remove Selected extn(.inx) using same py as main Batch inx. -For use in managing symbol library file and is intended to aid symbol library creation only. Other uses not tested. -"Symbols Batch Remove..." + "Quick Remove Selected Symbols" placed in Extensions>Symbols -As with any v1.3 extension can be allocated a keyboard shortcut. The premise for this extension is that the inbuilt symbol remove function only allows removal one symbol at a time; even using xml editor. (Batch Add and Sort extension also available)

Alpha Sort Symbols
RuaridhW
In Inkscape v1.3 the symbol library displays in XML stack order only. -This z-axis restacks the symbols in alphabetical order -This functions similar to Arrange>Restack extension by sorting symbols in the Z-axis. -For use in managing symbol library file and is intended to aid symbol library creation only. Other uses not tested. -"Alpha-Numeric Sort Symbols..." placed in Extensions>Symbols -Whilst this does reorder the SVG XML file structure and it is likely that 1.31 or later version will provide inbuilt non-structural sorting, but in the interim this is probably of use to some as an extension to allow the display of your symbols in alpha-numeric order. Other Symbol management extensions available: -Batch Add & Sort (with Quick Batch Add) -Batch Remove (with Quick Remove Selected)

Prover iLock attributes
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.

Sibelius ViewBox
musikai
This is an extension for Inkscape 1.2 for correcting SVG-files that were exported by Sibelius via the graphic selection tool. These SVG are always the full page with 4 white rectangles that cover the unwanted area. The page size and viewbox isn't set correctly to show only the selected area. The extension will correct this and has the options to - remove the white cover boxes - remove all elements that are outside the page (most of it). #### Download: Click on the image above #### Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jg7QqarVrA4 #### Installation: On Windows extract the zip file into something like this path: C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\inkscape\extensions\ To find and open the correct folder you can also open Inkscape->Edit->Preferences->System->User Extensions->Open After installation and restart Inkscape you can run the extension in "Extensions"->Document->Sibelius Viewbox. #### (Optional) Usage as .bat-file to process multiple SVGs: As it is a python script it also can be used to batch process multiple files via command line. Put this line into a text-file, edit the paths (yourname) and save as SibeliusViewbox.bat: for %%a in (%*) do python.exe "C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\inkscape\extensions\SibeliusViewbox\SibeliusViewboxExtension.py" --remove_whiteboxes=True --remove_elements=True %%a > %%a_viewbox.svg An example .bat-file is included. Once created you can drag and drop multiple SVGs onto the SibeliusViewbox.bat-file and the script will generate the corrected SVGs. Note: If Inkscape is not installed in "C:\Program Files\" you must edit the Python script. #### (Optional) Add .bat-file to Send-to-Menu: You can add the .bat-file to the Windows Send-to-menu. Open Windows-Explorer and insert this into the address-bar: shell:sendto This opens the Send-to-folder. Copy the .bat-file into it. Now you can select all your SVGs, right click -> Send-to -> SibeliusViewbox.bat

Dynamic GUI example extensions with GTK
Nikki.Smith
For extension developers. Most extensions to Inkscape use an .inx file that describes a static user interface, then a Python script is run one time when the user clicks "Apply". To create a dynamic UI (that changes as the user clicks buttons, selects from dropdown menus, etc) you can build it in GTK using a Python script that runs immediately. Requires Inkscape v1.1 or newer. These short examples demonstrate a handful of functions in GTK+ 3. Now includes an example extension that uses a .glade XML file to create the UI with Gtk.Builder(). Also many small changes that result in much higher pylint code scores.

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.

Inkscape 0.91.0 Portable
Josh Andler
Inkscape 0.91 Released on 2015-01-27 Release highlights ------------------ • Cairo rendering for display and PNG export • OpenMP multithreading for all filters • C++ code conversion • Major improvements in the Text tool • Measure tool • Type design features [1],[2] • Symbol library and support for Visio stencils • Cross platform WMF and EMF import and export • Improved support for Corel DRAW documents, Visio importer • Support for real world document and page size units, e.g. millimeters • Numerous usability improvements • Native Windows 64-bit build • See Notable bug fixes ------------------------- Rendering and performance ------------------------- Inkscape 0.91 includes a new renderer based on the Cairo library. This work was done mainly during Google Summer of Code 2010 and 2011 projects. • Improved performance. The new renderer is significantly faster on most drawings. Renderings of the most complex objects are automatically cached to improve responsiveness during editing. • OpenMP multithreading for filters. Filters use all available processor cores for computation. This results in substantial speedups when editing drawings containing large filtered objects on multi-core systems. • Substantial memory savings. Inkscape now uses less memory when opening complex drawings, in some cases using only 25% of the memory used by Inkscape 0.48. Larger files can now be opened. • Responsiveness improvements. The rendering of the SVG drawing is now cached. This results in massive improvements in responsiveness of path highlights, object selection / deselection, and path editing in delayed update mode. • Rendering bug fixes. Most of the rendering glitches in our bug tracker are no longer present in Inkscape 0.91. The following things now render correctly: - Pattern fills (no more gaps between tiles, regardless of transformation) - Stroke of transformed objects in patterns - Patterns containing clipped objects - Nested clipping paths - Masked and clipped objects with large masks / clipping paths in Outline view - Paths with wide strokes and long miters - Fonts Color display mode ------------------ A grayscale display color mode has been added, that shows a preview of your drawing in grayscale. Shift+numpad5 toggles the color display mode between normal and grayscale. ----- Tools ----- Node tool --------- The tool control bar for the Node Tool features a new dropdown to insert new nodes on the selected segments extreme values. For example, (as demonstrated in the image below) it is possible to add a new node at the highest point in a curve using Insert Node at Max Y Measurement tool ---------------- The Measurement tool is a new feature for the artist to measure the elements in their drawing. To use the measurement tool, simply choose the tool, click anywhere on the drawing and drag the ruler out. The measurement tool will live-update with measurements of length and angles as you pass over objects in your drawing. Text tool --------- • Text size default unit is now points (pt) and is customizable (px,pt,pc,mm,cm,in,em) • Text toolbar shows full list of font style variants for that font • Files with text in em units read correctly • Font substitution warning dialog ------- Dialogs ------- Gradients --------- • Gradient toolbar enhanced to select and modify gradient stops, invert, repeat, and link gradients • On-canvas gradient editing fixes: double clicking to create stops, correct focus on select • Gradients sortable by color, name and usage in Fill/Stroke • Gradients can be renamed in Fill/Stroke Arrange (was rows and columns) ------- • NEW: renamed to 'Arrange' - NEW: polar arrangement (separate tab) <http://issuu.com/ddeclara/docs/inkscape_radial_arrangement> Align and Distribute -------------------- • The new updated Inkscape features a new set of buttons in the Align and Distribute Dialog called Exchange position of selected objects. It adds the ability to exchange the positions of the objects that the artist has selected. - In the following example, three objects were selected, and their positions were exchaged with each other (using this new feature) according to their selection order. - There are also two other new buttons in the dialog that allow the artist to exchange the selected objects based on the stacking (z-index) order, or just exchange them clockwise based on the object's position on the page. • Keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+Alt+Keypad numbers) for align operations Document Properties ------------------- Optionally disable antialiasing (bug #170356, interface partially implemented) Find/Select ----------- • It is now easier to select items which are not at the top of the Z-order: use Alt+mouse wheel scroll to cycle through all items that are stacked on top of each other at the location of the mouse pointer (use Shift+Alt+mouse wheel scroll to add to the existing selection). At present, groups are not honoured, i.e., only individual items within groups are considered. • New Find/Replace dialog can operate on text or any attribute • "Select Same" is a new feature that allows an artist to select objects that have the same properties as the currently selected object. For example, you could select an object that has a fill of blue. Then, using the new feature select all other objects in the drawing with a fill set to that same shade of blue. The new feature is a menu choice under Edit ▶︎ Select Same or as a Context menu if you right click on a selected object. Also there are other choices available to select same, including: matching both Fill and Stroke, matching just stroke, matching stroke style, or matching on object type. Fill and Stroke --------------- • The Gradient view in the fill and stroke dialog now displays a list of all the gradients in the document. The list displays the gradient, the gradient name, and number of uses of that gradient in the document. • More compact Markers selectors Layers ------ • Drag and drop to reorder layers and create sublayers • Show/Hide All layers options in context menu Symbols ------- Inkscape has a new Symbols dialog. The dialog displays symbols from a symbol library. Inkscape 0.91 includes five example libraries: logic symbols, AIGA/DOT transportation symbols, map symbols, flow chart shapes and word balloons. The dialog will also create a pseudo-library of all existing symbols in the current Inkscape drawing. (A symbol is defined by an SVG <symbol> element.) Symbols can be dragged from the dialog onto the Inkscape canvas. Any document with symbols can serve as a source for a symbol library. Simply copy it to the symbols directory in your configuration directory (typically share/inkscape). If proper care is taken, symbols can be provided with default fill and stroke colors that later can be overridden by the user. Visio Stencil files (.vss) can also be used by dropping them in the same symbols directory. Results may not be as satisfactory as using SVG symbol libraries. See the Symbols Dialog Wiki page for more details. Text and Font ------------- • NEW: lists fonts used in the current document at the top • NEW: select all text objects with same font as current selection • NEW (to be verified): support list with fallback fonts (CSS2) Transform --------- • Rotation of objects clockwise or counterclockwise Markers ------- • Markers now take objects color Trace Bitmap ------------ • Trace bitmap preview updates live and is resizeable Live Path Effects ----------------- An object's Live Path Effects are now forked upon object duplication. PowerStroke ~~~~~~~~~~~ Here a list of the current state. Note that this is very much work in progress and anything can change. I think this is the most efficient place of keeping track how the powerstroke LPE works. • Stroke knots are purple diamonds • When first applied, 3 stroke knots are added: start, end, and somewhere in the middle along the path • Add nodes: Ctrl+click purple knot • Delete nodes: Ctrl+Alt+click purple knot • "sort points" reorders the stroke knots according to where they lie along the path (where they are closest to the path), instead of keeping them in original order. • Start and end caps can be specified. The SVG cap types are available, as well as an extra type, "Zero width", that is identical to adding a width control knot at the start/end of the path with zero width. • Join type can be specified. In addition to the SVG join types, there are two new types: - Extrapolated: this extrapolates the contour of the stroked path to obtain a more natural looking miter join. - Extrapolated arc: Mathematical explanation. - Spiro: rounds the join using a spiro curve (the rounded type rounds the curve using an elliptical arc). Clone Original ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Clone original LPE ignores the path data of the path it has been applied to; instead, it copies the original-d path data, i.e. the path data before LPE calculation, from the path linked to by the Linked path parameter. The Clone original LPE is made to be used in conjunction with powerstroke. Powerstroke creates a path with a variable stroke, but this path can then not be filled (because the fill is used as the stroke). To fill a powerstroked path, one must create a second path (dummy path), apply the Clone original LPE and link it to the powerstroked path. Because this second path clones the original path data before the Powerstroke LPE, it can be used to fill the powerstroked path. To quickly create a dummy path and apply this effect, one can select the path to 'clone' and click the menu item Edit ▶︎ Clone ▶︎ Clone original path (LPE). Like for normal clones, pressing Shift+D, when the selected path has the Clone original LPE applied, selects the path referred to by the LPE. Another very useful ability of the Clone original LPE is to create a clone with a different style than its referred path. To facilitate this, the LPE dialog will add the Clone original LPE when a clone is selected and the "+" button is pressed. Filters ------- The new Custom predefined filters allow users to create predefined filters with custom parameters. See SpecCustomPredefinedFilters. Trace Pixel Art (libdepixelize) --------------- A new library developed for Inkscape to automatically vectorize raster images specialized in Pixel Art was integrated in the form of the "Trace Pixel Art" dialog (menu item Path ▶︎ Trace Pixel Art...). Good and old general "Trace Bitmap" is still there. Check the supplementary material of the algorithm authors to see a preview of how the algorithm behaves. -------------------- Other User Interface -------------------- General ------- • Canvas background color can be set without exporting it (background transparency is only used for export but not the canvas). • Panning the canvas with the Space bar is now always turned on and doesn't require an additional mouse button press to grab the canvas: just press the Space bar and move the mouse pointer to pan the canvas. Guides ------ • Guides visibility can be toggled by clicking the ruler • Guides can now have labels, and the colour of individual guides can also be set by the user. To label or colour a guide, double click on the guideline to bring up the guide properties dialog. Menu/Access ----------- • The interface elements are accessible through the keyboard with ALT+key in many more dialogs • "Text and Font", "Fill and Stroke", and "Check Spelling" dialogs are added to the text object context menu (right click) • Menu items renamed: □ Edit ▶︎ Preferences □ Edit ▶︎ Input Devices □ File ▶︎ Cleanup Document • Checkboxes to indicated status of View ▶︎ Grid/Guides/Snap/Color Management • Group/Ungroup from the context menu Preferences ----------- • New keyboard shortcut editor • Prefs ▶︎ Interface -- New option for dockbar and switcher style (icons, text, icons & text) (bug #1098416) • Prefs ▶︎ Interface ▶︎ Windows -- optionally don't save & restore documents viewport (bug #928205) • Prefs ▶︎ Behavior ▶︎ Steps -- unit selector for steps (move, scale, inset/ outset) (bug #170293) • Prefs ▶︎ Behavior ▶︎ Steps -- option for relative snapping of guideline angles (rev 10307) • Prefs ▶︎ Behavior ▶︎ Clones -- optionally relink linked offsets on duplication (bug #686193) • Prefs ▶︎ Input/Output ▶︎ SVG output -- NEW: optionally enforce relative or absolute coordinates (bug #1002230) Dialogs ------- • Dialog status and position is remembered between sessions • Most dialogs now dockable (including "Object properties", "Object attributes", "Text and Font", "Check spelling", "Export PNG image", "XML editor", "Find/Replace", and "Tiled clones") • New preference to allow Windows users to choose between native and Gtk Open /Save dialog • Preferences dialog cleanup • Document Metadata dialog merged into Document Properties Simple calculations in spinboxes -------------------------------- In most spinboxes (a spinbox is an entry field with up and down "spinbuttons" next to it) you can now write simple calculations. Some examples: • 2 * 3 • 50 + 100, or • ((12 + 34) * (5 + 5) - 2) / 2 Moreover, you can use units in entering values, like 2 + 2 cm. The result will be converted to the selected unit for the particular entry. Configurable Control Handles ---------------------------- New preferences have been added to allow for the size of the on-canvas controls to be increased or decreased. The "Input Devices" section has been updated to control this. ------------ Translations ------------ • The Keyboard and mouse reference (inkscape-docs project) and the labels of color palettes are now translatable. • New UI translation in Latvian. • New tutorial translations in Galician and Greek. • New Keyboard and mouse reference translation in Belarusian. • New man pages in Chinese (zh_TW) Greek (el), Japanese (ja) and Slovak (sk), and updated French translation. [Galician (gl) and Polish (pl) in progress] • Man pages now use PO files for translation (inkscape-docs project). • The tutorial generation system now fully supports RTL languages. ------------------- File format support ------------------- • New Flash XML Graphics (FXG) export format. • New Synfig Animation Studio (SIF) export format. • New HTML5 Canvas export format • New Visio (VSD) import format, based on libvisio. • New internal CorelDraw (CDR) import format, based on libcdr. • XAML export improvements (including a new Silverlight compatible mode). • Compressed SVG and media export extension improvements. New options: □ set an image directory in the zip file □ add a text file that lists the fonts used in the SVG document. • New preference to allow users to always link, embed or ask when importing bitmaps. • New preferences that allow the checking of SVG on input and/or export for invalid or not useful elements, attributes, and properties. Options control whether such items generate warnings (when Inkscape is run from the command line) or in removing such items. • The --export-text-to-path option now works with Plain SVG export. EMF/WMF ------- EMF and WMF input and output filters have been completely rewritten and are now cross-platform. It is now possible to copy and paste EMF files between Windows applications running in Wine and a native Linux version of Inkscape. Gimp XCF -------- • The Save Background option allows users to choose if the page background is saved with each GIMP layer. • The exported layers now use the label attribute or, if not set, the id attribute • New Resolution option • New Help tab • Some bugs and warnings fixed PDF --- • Bleed/margin: Added an option to specify an extra margin by which the bounding box to be exported is expanded. This may be helpful to export a PDF with a small white margin around the drawing, or for exporting a bleed region a few mm outside the area of the page. PDF/EPS/PS + LaTeX ------------------ • Added the possibility of scaling the image. The calc package must be included in the preamble. Then the image can be scaled by defining \ svgscale instead of \svgwidth. • The font shape is now also exported. \textit{} for italic text, \textbf{} for bold text, and \textsl{} (slanted) for oblique text. It is important to note that Arial has an oblique font shape, not italic. Thus, the result in LaTeX will be slanted, instead of italic. It is better to use another font in Inkscape when you want true italics. ---------- Extensions ---------- Units: Breaking change ---------------------- Due to the implementation of proper document units, the functions inkex.unittouu and inkex.uutounit had to be modified and moved to the inkex.Effect class. Unit conversion calls should be replaced with inkex.Effect.unittouu and inkex.Effect.uutounit calls (usually self.unittouu and self.uutounit). See also: Notes On Units Handling in Extensions in 0.91 New --- • The new guillotine extension is used for exporting PNG slices from a drawing. The slice rectangles are defined by adding horizontal and vertical guides within the canvas boundary, the canvas boundary serves as the outside of the sliced area. • The new G-code tools extension converts paths to G-code (using circular interpolation), makes offset paths and engraves sharp corners using cone cutters. • New QR code generator. • New isometric grid generator. • New bitmap crop extension. • New Extract text extension. Outputs a document’s text elements in a chosen order. • New Merge text extension. • New HSL adjust extension. • New Replace font extension. • New N-Up layout extension. • New Voronoï diagram extension (creates Voronoï diagrams and Delaunay triangulations based on the selected objects' barycenter). • New Interpolate Attribute in a group extension. • New Typography extensions menu. • New Hershey Text extension. Improvements ------------ • Number nodes. New parameters allowing users to choose the starting dot number and the numbering step between two nodes. • Color Markers to Match Stroke extension improvements. The markers can now inherit the fill and stroke colors and alpha channels from the object, or be customized with color selectors in a separate tab. • Optional sliders added on float and int extension parameters (full and minimal modes). • Extension parameters values (except attributes!) can now be contextualized for translation (with msgctxt). • New sub-menus in the Render menu, grouping the bar-codes, grids and layout extensions. ----------- SVG Support ----------- Rendering of the following properties is now supported (without UI except via XML editor): • clip-rule • color-interpolation-filters: Non-Inkscape filters that specify linearRGB color interpolation will render properly. Filters created inside Inkscape will still use sRGB color interpolation by default. • text-decoration: Underline, strike-through, over line. • text-decoration-line, text-decoration-style: Preliminary support (CSS 3). • paint-order: Allows stroke to be painted under fill; useful for text. -------- Snapping -------- • The snapping preferences and the snap toolbar have been reworked (in the underlying code and in the GUI) to should make the snapping preferences easier to understand, maintain, and find and fix any remaining snapping bugs • Inkscape now also snaps perpendicularly and tangentialy to paths, when creating paths in the pen tool, when dragging nodes, or when manipulating guides. Newly created guides (dragged off the ruler) will snap perpendicularly or tangentialy to any curve that is being snapped to. Two checkboxes have been added to the document properties dialog (on the snapping tab). Please note that snapping perpendicularly or tangetialy will not work in the selector tool when transforming an object or a selection of objects. • Intersections of paths and guides can now be snapped to too • Snapping has been implemented fully for transforming selections of multiple nodes in the node tool • Snapping to text anchors and baselines has been implemented properly • If one has chosen for only snapping the snap source closest to the mouse pointer, then the tab key can be used to cycle to the next closest snap source ----------------- Notable bug fixes ----------------- Notable bug fixes since last bug fix release (0.48.4) -------------------------------------------- • Images are no longer recompressed when embedding or exporting them. [3] • Relative image paths are no longer stored as absolute (regression introduced with 0.47). • Many rendering glitches were fixed. • The rendering of the stroke on transformed objects now matches the SVG specification. • Values entered in the numeric input boxes for the selector tool (X, Y, width, height) are much more accurately applied. • Inkscape launches faster due to new icon cache (on disk) and improved font loading. (Bug #488247) ------------ Known issues ------------ • On MS Windows when the desktop colordepth is set to 16-bit, Inkscape is unusable because of exploding memory usage. Please set the colordepth to 32-bit. • The Cairo library used in the new renderer does not implement downscaling, which causes large bitmaps to be pixelated on export. (bug #804162) The issue can be fixed by upgrading to Cairo 1.14.0. (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41745) • On OS X, the conflict with X11/XQuartz's pasteboard syncing has not been solved yet: turning off "Update Pasteboard when CLIPBOARD changes" in X11 Preferences prevents that vector data copied or cut to the clipboard gets rasterized on paste. (bug #307005) • On OS X 10.9 or later, embedding bitmap images on import or paste from clipboard may crash Inkscape. (bug #1398521, #1410793) • On OS X 10.9 or later, turning off "Displays have separate spaces" in Mission Control helps when using X11 across multiple displays. (bug # 1244397) • The reworked Import Clip Art feature is not available with current OS X packages. (bug #943148) • On MS Windows, the icons for Preferences, Undo, Redo and Revert are missing. (bug #1269698) For information on prior releases, please see: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Inkscape

Lock/Unlock all layers
Jacob Grobler
# Inkscape Layer Locking Extensions This repository contains three Inkscape extensions for managing layer locking: ## 1. Lock/Unlock All Layers This extension provides a convenient way to toggle the lock state of all layers in your Inkscape document. **Functionality:** * If any layer is unlocked, the extension will lock all layers. * If all layers are locked, the extension will unlock all layers. **Usage:** 1. Install the extension by placing the `lock_unlock_all_layers.inx` and `lock_unlock_all_layers.py` files in your Inkscape extensions directory. 2. Open your SVG document in Inkscape. 3. Go to `Extensions > Layer > Lock/Unlock All Layers`. ## 2. Lock All Layers This extension locks all layers in your Inkscape document, regardless of their current state. **Usage:** 1. Install the extension by placing the `lock_all_layers.inx` and `lock_all_layers.py` files in your Inkscape extensions directory. 2. Open your SVG document in Inkscape. 3. Go to `Extensions > Layer > Lock All Layers`. ## 3. Unlock All Layers This extension unlocks all layers in your Inkscape document, regardless of their current state. **Usage:** 1. Install the extension by placing the `unlock_all_layers.inx` and `unlock_all_layers.py` files in your Inkscape extensions directory. 2. Open your SVG document in Inkscape. 3. Go to `Extensions > Layer > Unlock All Layers`. ## Acknowledgements This extension was developed with the help of [Gemini Advanced](https://sites.research.google/gemini), Google's next-generation AI model. Special thanks to the Inkscape community for their valuable contributions and support, particularly the following resources: * Inkscape Forum: [https://inkscape.org/forums/](https://inkscape.org/forums/) * Inkscape Wiki: [https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/](https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/) * Inkscape Extensions Documentation: [https://inkscape.gitlab.io/extensions/documentation/](https://inkscape.gitlab.io/extensions/documentation/)

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.

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.

Probleme mit Neje Laser gcode
WernerHohmann
Hat jemand eine Idee warum plötzlich der Neje Laser die G Codes nicht mehr richtig darstellt ? Ich habe Inkscape bei Neje mit deren Extension geladen. Wenn ich ein JPG importiert habe und den G Code erstellt habe, sind beim Laser die Schneidelinien nicht mehr durchgängig. Bis vor kurzem lief das alles wunderbar, nach dem Update auf die neuste Inkscape Version nicht mehr. Bei der „alten“ Version geht es nun auch nicht mehr. Die alten Vorlagen funktionieren einwandfrei... was mache ich falsch ? Kennt jemand das Problem ? ImmAnhang ein Sreenshot, der die unterbrochenen Schnittkanten zeigt, irgendwie werden nicht alle Kurven geschlossen? Wer kann helfen oder hat eine Idee ?

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.
