It's getting pretty long in the tooth since that last header page saying 48.1 has been delayed. I don't care about that...what I'd like to know *what's going on* and it would be nice to get some further information from the Inkscape team on a time frame for the update. Christmas? New Year? Give us a...

There is *no* option in Adobe Illustrator 9 for SVG compatibility mode. I checked. You may be referring to compatibility mode in *Inkscape* when saving SVG files to be read by other vector programs like AI or CDR. I've tried this option and even this is not read correctly by CorelDraw. Illustrator 9...

Yes...I've tried SVG standard format and it still doesn't work correctly. So saving SVG files from Inskcape is out of the question. Which means I can't depend on Inkscape when creating files to be read by commercial software. If I needed to work on vector artwork in a hurry and had to do something q...

CorelDRAW X3 supports importing and exporting SVG files. Unfortunately Inkscape doesn't correctly save to the SVG format because when I do this and open them in CorelDRAW X3, the paths are flying all over the artboard. When I create and export SVG files from CorelDRAW X3 into Inkscape...everything i...

Another issue...how can Inkscape be taken seriously if it can't import AI or CDR files? This is a big no no in my book. SVG capabilities which *only* emulates layers is another trick I don't like. Inkscape needs to fully support AI or CDR files to really be taken seriously as an alternative to comme...

I've been using Inkscape for the past 6 months and I've come to a few conclusions. These are my personal observations but my comments should be taken seriously. 1. The Layers palette is woefully inadequate for serious vector work. I've been using Illustrator and CorelDRAW for years now and I can see...

I need a way to copy a path exactly a certain distance away from the original so I can duplicate it in the same distance between two objects. In Illustrator this is easy. I can't find a way to do this with Inkscape except eyeballing the distances.
