[solved] Change front of 3D box

Postby miggols99 » Fri Mar 21, 2008 8:03 am

I want to change the colour of the front of a 3D box, but I can because it keeps trying to select the sides behind it. Can I do it without ungrouping the box or having to make a new one?

Ctrl+click works for me.

That doesn't seem to work...it just selects the sides behind it.

I don't know why it doesn't work for you. What version of Inkscape are you using?

You should at least be able to select any face using the XML editor: select the 3D box, open the XML editor (the <> icon, or Shift+Ctrl+X), expand the selected svg:g element, and click on one of its six svg:path subelements.
