Hi there, forgive my frustration! By the way, Inkscape is definitely the best SVG editor!! you should see some of the others, they make a real mess of it. I have found that I do not need to do things the way I was. I still need the vectors in the file, they come from another system, but Ponoko only ...

I'm really struggling here! my file has lines, arcs and circles, (and text) as vectors. I am trying to send the file to Ponoko - Razorlabs, and they require the lines to be 0.01 mm, have a fill of 0,0,255,255 and be paths. The process of changing it to paths means that it is a one way process and i ...

thanks for the file - how did you convert them back to objects?

that's fine, I have them as they are and cannot change them, not as rectangles, but I do have circles but not arcs.
I think I have a way round, but the question remains: why can I not change the width of a path from that dialog, when I can change the fill colour?

Thanks

Lawrence

that's what I thought, they are paths. but if a path has a width, and the dialog shows that I can change it, why can I not change the path width? surely on would want to change the width of a path? why does the dialog seem to let ma change it but not honour it? I think that is a bug if I may propose...

Thanks

Lawrence

I have an SVG file. It had lines as strokes, and I could edit the stroke colour etc, and the width. I have converted them to paths. I can change the fill colour (the stroke colours are not available as expected). I can set the width in the same dialogue, but it does not affect the path I have select...
