Page Width Rounding Problem
I need my page width to be 10.425". But when I type that in, it automatically becomes 10.43. Is there a workaround for this? I really need specific measurements.

Can I increase a path's width?
I'm trying to make doodle type art (kind of like in the iPhone app Doodle Jump) and am having trouble. I draw the art by hand, then scan it as a .bmp, and import it, and convert it into a path (just one color, BTW). But sometimes my pen is thinner or thicker than I'd like. So I want to increase the ...

Re: dpi exporting to bmp
Thanks--all I need to do is multiply 72 dpi x 1.25 - 90. I just wondered if there was any better/easier way...but I guess this is pretty easy.

Re: How to make a racetrack/road?
Here's what I've done (to rezise or scale the filter down): 1. I set the page size to 4x what I want the end-image to be. 2. I apply the filter. 3. I set resize the image to 1/4 of it's current size (which makes it the width/height I want). While it might not be the best technique, it's good enough ...

dpi exporting to bmp
I'm having trouble with trying to export to bmp: Whenever I change the dpi, or height/width in pixels when I'm exporting, the other two values (out of the three) change automatically. How can I set that I want EXACTLY 72.00 dpi, 480 x 320 pixels? (Changing the page size in "Document Properties&...

Re: How to make a racetrack/road?
I've added the "Film" filter effect to the gray and green in my road, to make a pretty good grass/asphalt effect. I wondered, though: how do I scale the filter down, so that it doesn't looks so pixely (does that make sense)? The filter size is to big--I want it shrinked. I don't think I ne...

Re: How to make a racetrack/road?
Wow! THANKS for the great info! I've messed around a little bit, and figured out a few things, and made my first track. I am still having trouble with the "sand" image (instead of just a plain, grey-black color). I'll upload a screenshot, with a little more info, tomorrow. THANKS for your ...

Re: How to make a racetrack/road?
Thank you both for the responses; is there a chance you could take screenshots/video of what you did? I've tried a few different ways, and I don't seem to get it right. Here are screenshots of what I'm doing (or, what I'm not doing...) :) 1. I draw squares, to make a track "pattern." At th...

How to make a racetrack/road?
I'm new to Inkscape. I'm trying to make multiple (25+) racetrack roads. I'd like to be able to make what I want the road to look like, and then make it so that it's sort of a "pen" or stamp--so I can draw a quick line using pencil, and the computer automatically makes it a racetrack. Any h...
