Extra note: Don't delete the pixels definition or your zoom factor goes wacky!

Gonna put on my pajamas and go to Walmart!

Thanks to Eduard Braun who gave a perfect solution: you can easily restore "feet" to the list of usable units by modifying the file "/usr/share/inkscape/ui/units.xml" add this below centimeters: <unit type="LINEAR" pri="n"> <name>foot</name> <plural>feet</plur...

Let the "ME TOO's" commence!

Thanks for all the replies. I personally HATE feet inch yd, 7/32, cup, pint, gallon. But I live here and have to deal with it. To Brynn - At this moment I have up scaled images of an enclosed trailer. I am figuring each panel size to see how much vinyl I need to cover it without overlapping seams. F...

I do signs and car wraps and gym floor graphics. These are all drawn exactly to scale in Inkscape. No, I will not do it at 1/10... Currently I have cm, pt, pc, px, in, mm Of course, the only useful scale for me to use is inches. Why did FEET get removed? I love all the updates and do not wish to rev...

Hey, 5 years is pretty quick. The solution is Bezier Envelope extension. As of 2017, here is the link for the extension: https://github.com/shlomif/Bezier-Envelope-for-Inkscape In Ubuntu, Copy files to /usr/share/Inkscape/extensions (in the terminal type 'sudo nautilus' or 'sudo caja' or whatever yo...

No...not many at all. Only around 950...Is that alot?

If that is the reason for the delay, I will just deal with it. I really do need them all.

Thanks!

My current config is a quad core processor with 4 gig ram. Time to start when another instance is not running is 48 seconds. That is to l...

I've found how to cut vinyl with inkscape - finally. Now, Inkscape has updated and my previous method doesn't work. So I downgraded and did it the way I did before. Select 'Print' , then in the box that comes up paste the following: | /home/bruce/hpgl/print-to-cutter.sh that is a nice shell script f...

WONDERFUL! How have I missed this for so long?? Now I have all units in inches and 3 layers all ready to roll. I also moved to another folder the templates that I NEVER use. /usr/share/inkscape/templates You'll need to edit it as root, I believe. Otherwise you won't be able to save to that folder. I...

I'm now getting quite used to doing CTRL+SHIFT+D to set defaults. One little problem - I have NEVER in the past 5 or however many years I've used inkscape needed ANYTHING except inches. I don't need to set pixel size, being a dumb american, (no offense to the millions of others...) I have not needed...
