Hi!

I'm trying to use inkscape to create some nice graphics in order to include them in a presentation which itself is being made using LaTeX beamer/PSTricks. However, the presentation requires some pictures to be shown stepwise per click. Now, that's exactly where I'm having a problem (which seems to be difficult to google , too):
Is there a way using inkscape to write the requiered \pause-commands straight into the output tex-file?
I already tried giving my objects custom Ids, Labels, Titles and Descriptions, hoping I could find those words in the corresponding .tex-file (so I actually could identify the given object) to place the \pause-commands right after them myself, this failed (for some good reasons, of course ).

I'd love to learn how this limitation can be overcome and btw., I'd be excited to learn any other possible solution apart from those explicitly mentioned above!

I do this all the time, but my method is utterly lacking in elegance and I imagine there is a better way.

I simply produce multiple pictures, each one drawn with the next element that is to appear. Save each as its own frame and display the frames in order. The way to get the pictures to align perfectly so that nothing jiggles as each new element appears is to create the original inkscape diagram in layers, each layer corresponding to what should appear in a single frame. Then from the original .svg save a sequence of .pdfs to be displayed via \includegraphics, beginning with all but the base layer invisible and sequentially making visible each layer in turn.

Text on the diagram itself can be added with tex text and can appear sequentially using the same technique. Since editing tex text is annoying and can become impossible, it may be easier to use minipages, one for the picture and one for the sequence of text lines.
