properties change

Postby Dman » Fri Jan 22, 2010 12:55 pm

I would like my board to measure in inch's I go to Properties change the setting to "in" and proceed.
Next new project I have to change it back to "in"
Any way to make it stay in inch's?

What is the latest version of inkscape and how do I know what I have?

Thanks
Newbie

Hi D'man,

The settings you refer to are part of the DOCUMENT.
So everytime you open a new document, it is reset to the default.
Fortunately, you can define your own default template, and that will solve your troubles. More info in the Inkscape Guide.

Hope this helps,
Syllie
