Hi, Actually, I am not a designer, but a researcher that deals with "social network analysis". The software I use (Visone) provides images of Social Networks in .SVG format. I consider the image much "plain" and I know that Inkscape could improve a lot .SVG images. So, I am going...

Hi, I will try to deal Inkscape Open dialog! About Renesis I just have found this link: http://www.localinformationsystems.co.uk/Downloads.aspx Also I found this another that provides thumbnails to many many formats (it seems not be able to load SVG although, but deal with XCF - GIMP): http://code.g...

Hi, It seems the "Renesis Player" which made available thumbnails from SVG in windows explorer isn't more available (http://www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=973&p=26323&hilit=thumbnail#p26323). Does anyone know other way to visualize .SVG "Thumbnails" throug...

Thanks again. I will take a look on this solution. Anyway it is giving some work and I am not completely confident in the conversion results. Maybe I will try Illustrator...

Hi. I could use it now. After have converted to .EPS file, I realized the output format isn't good to use in Boris FX. In my test I created a simple 3D box and I could visualize just the form with both fill and stroke black. Do you know other software that convert to an EPS file compatible with Adob...

Hi. Thanks for information.
The downloaded file was "xpdf-3.03.tar.gz". But inside the file there are a plenty of others but none with .exe extension. How could I install the software? Did I download the wrong file maybe?

Best,

Hello, I am using Inkscape to created vectoral images (EPS format) to be used in video editing through Boris Graffiti application. However, Boris is unable to load EPS from Inkscape properly. When I was reading the Boris help guide, it was mentioned that the EPS file should be compatible with Adobe ...

Hello, O exported a chart from MSPowerPoint in WMF format. I open and tried edit WMF file into Inkscape. First thing I did: right-click to context menu and "ungroup". After that some objects could be manipulated, but other seems to be grouped yet. But "ungroup" option isn't avail...

I solved this latter question about handling SVG (the problem was with my inexperience with Inkscape yet). But it seems to me that WMF has a better definition than SVG. Would be it just my impression? Is there any significative difference in use WMF or SVG? In my case I am just importing an chart ge...

Hi, I made some tests in Gimp. To this usage (remove/create transparent background), Gimp works great when background is more homogeneous or single color. In these cases, it is just to make an selection and use in Gimp menu [ colours=>colour to alpha ]. The results are great and fast to any type of ...

Hi, Thanks everybody for information. I have tried all of them. IMHO the best "initial" way is using Draw (from OpenOffice). This is a vectorial tool and its graphs and charts have great quality and possibilities of handling. Moreover, there are a plenty of formats to exports, including SV...

Hello, Is there any smart way (or plugin) to create charts (bar, line, pie etc.) through Inkscape? I mean something like an interface where I could insert data and the chart is created automatically... Mainly, my interest is because I begin to use Inkscape plugin Sozi (http://sozi.baierouge.fr/wiki/...

Hi Maestral, Thanks for your elucidating answer! I am studying this whole thing recently and my own "learn curve" is showing that it could be really difficult to fit easy to non-animators in academic context. Anyway, I will have a better idea of the whole thing soon. I would appreciate new...

Hi Maestral, Your answer seemed little bit abstract for my understanding (I am not english native speaker). So, I am deducting Inkscape could provide powerful tools than Gimp, is it? I really don't know both but I will need to chose one soon. Or will both software be useful in some way? I am confuse...

Many thanks for your encouraging answer!!! I am not familiarized with Inkscape features yet. In the same way, I was wondering if Gimp could be useful as well. I just found Gimp has the plugin GAP (the GIMP Animation Package). I know Gimp forum will be best place to approach this software features, b...

Hello, I would like to try creating an animation like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcIxD070LJg - originally made through Apple Keynote Animation). a) Could anyone inform if Inkscape is able to give me tools to create similar still drawings/images? b) If yes, does anyone know any tutorial tha...

Hello, When picture background has just one color, is there in Inkscape a simple way to pick transparency index from this background (JPG) and to save picture with transparent background (PNG)? Ps.: I am looking for a simple way that isn’t necessary to use Bezier tool around picture, since the backg...
