Hidden objects

Postby Inky Hands » Sat Jan 23, 2010 9:21 pm

Ive been importing some vectors from some of my existing vectors and using sections of them. When I saved the vector I have gone and done FILE - DOCUMENT PROPERTIES - FIT PAGE TO SELECTION and saved the resulting SVG.
When i import it into SCIBIUS, I get some other objects in there as well, but when looked at in INKSCAPE I can't find them.... yet they are there.

Now i can delete these objects in SCRIBIUS. But I'd like to get rid of them in INKSCAPE.

If i had to find missing nodes or missing objects in INKSCAPE, how would you do it?

It seems to be a case of these things are white.. and using the arrow and highlighting areas doesn't seem to reveal them.

Any help would be welcome. :D

Okay - i'm back.
With the solution to my own problem. :)

FIND worked better then i thought.
The key to everything getting listed was to put in ID the word "path" in... all those mystery objects were highlighted.
