Agreed, the reason one is using a pattern in the first place is you are creating a repeated aligned pattern. Visual bounding box hinders accomplishing this.

If the geometric BB were considered when making object to pattern, the endcaps would not be in the pattern.

Thanks for making it clear for brynn!

The reason I came across this, is because I made a website with a pattern stroke background, and in CSS it tiles perfectly (geometrically box). However when I tried to make a PDF out of it, and use inkscape to tile the pattern, I encountered these problems when repeating the pattern (visual bounding...

Thanks bryn,
Thanks for the suggestions.

It with happens with small files of a few kb, or large files. I have 16GB RAM.
Process manager shows while it freezes: 0% CPU usage, RAM usage remains the same, and the network usage is 0%.

I have actually raised bug report.

HI Brynn, I read the FAQ in your signature, it does not offer any insight to this problem, it only covers the basics. Thanks.

Hi All, I am using the pattern tool, and I am sure it works well for filled objects with no stroke, but when I try to tile a pattern which uses stroke, it treats as a visual bounding box, not a geometric one (even though I have setting Preferences > Tools > Geometric bounding box enabled). What this...

I tried running it from the command line (quite a while ago, using the command inkscape.com or something similar), but no debug is ever output from when it starts, including when it hangs.

Any recommendations on how to proceed? Trying to make a website, and the tweaking, check, tweaking check, is taking so long.
Can I report a bug if its not reproducible on other machines?

Hi Moini, thank you! "Do Object > Pattern > Pattern to Objects" did the trick! Brilliant thanks!

Thanks for the reply Xav, I currently do not have any network drives attached. In windows explorer if I go to This PC-> Map network Drive -> disconnect network drive, there are no network drives. I have a NAS drive I connect about one every 2 weeks to back up to, but I manually control the IP addres...

Hi All, I imported a flow diagram a friend made on a free online tool (it exports .svg), and opened it with inkscape to improve it a bit. However the embedded raster images seem to be a viewport/window to the image, which seems to be wallpapered (repeated) in the container window. Moving the image o...

Hi Guys, Before I register a bug on launchpad, would you guys help me dig up some info so it would be a useful bug report. When I start, open, or save a document, it freezes for 46 seconds. For example when starting up it says in the title Bar: "New document 1 - Inkscape (Not Responding)"....
