[solved] Why do my strokes look different?

Postby tccambs » Thu Nov 10, 2016 10:01 pm

I'm new to Inkscape. I have three graphs that were imported from pdfs as paths. They were all created identically in Matlab. When I stretch them horizontally in inkscape, two of them look nice, but the third looks 'caligraphic' in a way that I don't desire. As far as I can tell, the line properties are identical.

I attach an SVG file of the stretched graphs. The top and bottom graphs are the look I want - the middle one looks like it was done with a caligraphy pen. How can I get it to look the same as the others?

Thanks in advance.

Hi.

That is because the mentioned paths are inside groups and the groups are transformed.
If you select the group, ungroup it twice, it will all go back to normal.
