Hi, Yes that is the work around and would have been my first action of choice. However I wanted the whole set aligned to another box, which I assume just selecting them all will move all objects and align to the top of the box, but if you group them they will stay relative towards eachother. However...

I posted a feature request to Launchpad. https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/622589 Like I said I will be more careful in the future, but selecting multiple objects on different layers can happen acidentally and usually one does not want those objects to jump from layer to layer, so a warning d...

Well ok if it is no bug, it can cause irreversable damage to people's work who are not aware of the "SVG standard" limitations. I would vote for a warning message box telling me that all my objects will be grouped to one layer. Like I said it really screwed me over not knowing this side ef...

Hi All, I wanted to know before I report this, if this is a bug or a "feature" .. It really screwed me over that it acted like this, but maybe there is a good explanation for it .. ok here we go; When you have various objects on different layers, and you group those objects, it puts them a...

Thanks!

And I am glad I rediscovered drawing cartoons and Inkscape is a *great* tool to use!

Thanks everybody for helping me with my (cartooning) Inkscape problems. After inking and coloring it, this is the final result:

Well it is a nice gesture of the server to lean us some foreign languages ;-) I am also a developer, so I always think in solutions and reasons why this happens. I think a good guess might be that the server session information gets screwed up, and new visitors get old session information hence a wr...

I apologize, I was still in the context of the bezier pen and I could not find it there. I never looked back at the freehand pencil tool, I wish I had

Thank you all for your help!

I didn't need to download, I was more looking for version information. Like I said in Firefox it was all ok, maybe a browser identification problem? It was more annoying that I could not switch to English. I don't mind being presented with a foreign language as long as there is a little english flag...

I wanted to add that this painful method of how I drawn my cartoons (point to point bezier pen, doubleclick, ctrl-a, shift-a on every single line) is obsolete now. I totally missed out on the "smoothing" slider on the pen tool. I had to ink the last frame of my cartoon, and darn, I found i...

Hi, I was just looking for a new version. I am from the Netherlands but when I go to Inkscape.org I get a japanese page! And oddly enough there is no little flag icon that can kindly redirect me to the english version?? I would even do with Dutch is that was an option :shock: When I click on the dow...

So when I read this correct, they are working on exact that same feature? That's very cool! It will help us cartoonists a lot and save us from the hazard of RSI

To add to my previous post, this is the example. The lower "nose" is drawn with the freehand pen, then simplified (Shift-L) and smoothed. The top nose (that is where it should be) is drawn point to point with the bezier/pen tool and also smoothed. You can see the minor mistakes when tracin...

Hi, Maybe using Pencil tool and holding Alt to "fix" the line could help When I use either bezier or pen tool with alt held down it shows me a hand to move the picture. When I hold alt down while drawing it does not show me a red line. It just draws. I am using Inkscape 0.47 I am not sure ...

Hi all, I was using Adobe Illustrator a very long time ago, which has one advantage over Inkscape which was I could "auto-draw" bezier curves. Meaning I would trace my cartoon sketch line and it would find the best bezier path for the lines I traced. This worked nice, but it is not present...
