This should give much more consistent results. How about to within an error margin... You lose alot more detail rounding 1.4444 -> 1 rather than rounding 1.9999 -> 2 Maybe what is needed is a kind of 'normalise'. Think of a particularly bad case for rounding, say a rectangle with the left side with an X of 1.5 and the other at 3.0 Say you rounded to 0dp, then the left side moves 30%, but the right side moves 0. I wonder if you could not massage the points a bit so they both move around the same sort of amount. Would this preserve the 'image' better?!

Now if you want cleaner more readable SVG that is another issue but knowing your real motivations will make it easier for developers to fix the real problem rather than treating the symptoms. AFAIK work has already been committed to reduce this issue and at least trim the trailing zeros (I vaguely recall a bug report) and I strongly encourage you to try out a nightly build or even the testing prereleases for 0.43 (or check the RFE tracker). With careful use of a Grid and Snap to Grid you might be able to futher reduce the complex decimals output in your SVG (or maybe not, but I'd at least try it). > style="fill:none;fill-opacity:0.75000000;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke:#000000;stroke-width:1.0585089px;stroke-linecap:butt;stroke-linejoin:miter;stroke-opacity:1.0000000" > id="path1310" /> Part of the reason I asked above if you are not only concerned about file size but are also interesed in issues like clarity of markup was because then there are other changes you might be interested in. I previously asked about support for SVG tags like circle and rect rather than using paths for everything as it would produce much more readable code but it seems the techinical infrastructure required to allow this would be a lot of work and not practical at this time. (And I should clarifly that while I think it would be nice to have there are many other features which would be more important, nicer to have and easier to do.) Another thing which might be helpful would be including some whitespace and more linebreaks to the style information (which gzip will do a fine job of compressing) because not only could this make the markup more readable it and would be a big help to anyone committing Inkscape SVG into a Version Control System like CVS or Subversion (which I assume is why Sodipodi added so many line breaks into the markup in the past). (I'll try and remember to file a request, it is something I've been pondering but it isn't a big deal because most people dont tinker with the markup quite as obsessively as I like to do.) > Thanks in advance!

That's a good point you raise about throwing out zeros first because they are not significant digits.=20 It would be interesting to see a script that compressed the image by removing extra digits as Henning suggested, but also allowed you to determine how much loss you were willing to accept. With the range of compression options such as: - lossless where it only throws out zeros eg. .75000000 >> .75, 143.23123576 >> 143.23123576 - lots of loss rounds all coordinates to nearest whole number, all opacity values to two decimal digits (so the percentage is a whole number) eg. .75000000 >> .75, 143.23123576 >> 143 - somewhere in between allows a user to specify how many digits to round off eg. .750 >> .75, 143.23123576 >> 143.231 I'm sure it would be possible to further optimize the compression by doing things like changing path names to shorter values, remove whitespace, convert styles to a style sheet, etc. - Dave -----Original Message----- From: inkscape-user-admin@...

I believe that on OSX this key combination also doesn't work. I think X11 grabs it before it gets to Inkscape. -- Michael Moore ------------------------------- http://www.stuporglue.com -- Articles, software and computer tutorials. http://www.stuporglue.org -- Donate your used computer to a student that needs it. |

Hi, Is it possible to reduce the size of a SVG file by cutting off (some or all of) the digits of numbers behind the decimal point automatically? Can this be done within Inkscape or is it possible to write a script to extend Inkscape? (With regular expressions and a scripting laanguage it would be possible but I would like to know if a feature like this already exists. It should work like this: Before: <path d="M 197.50906,180.93358 C 208.42611,171.19005 243.09749,175.25444 255.13174,160.93358 C 258.56906,156.84315 258.33300,147.20836 258.33300,140.93358" style="fill:none;fill-opacity:0.75000000;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke:#000000;stroke-width:1.0585089px;stroke-linecap:butt;stroke-linejoin:miter;stroke-opacity:1.0000000" id="path1310" /> After: <path d="M 197,180 C 208,171 243,175 255,160 C 258,156 258,147 258,140" style="fill:none;fill-opacity:0.75000000;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke:#000000;stroke-width:1.0585089px;stroke-linecap:butt;stroke-linejoin:miter;stroke-opacity:1.0000000" id="path1310" /> Thanks in advance!

Dear all, Is there a way to convert a text into individual paths (one separate path for each letter or letter part), which can then be moved or modified individually? Thanks in advance, Herve |

I was already afraid of that. I managed to produce a nice looking result with your suggestion of using two circles and adjusting letterspacing.

If it does not for you, >please submit a but attaching the bad file (or giving a link to it). The letterspacing does work with text-on-path. I only needed to enter 'editing text' mode first. Maybe it would be a good idea to be able to add an alternate way (besides the keys Alt-> and Alt-<) to adjust letterspacing. Because on my keyboard I need to use the shift key already to enter '>'. So I can't use that key for the 10 pixel variant of the key combination anymore. Just an idea. |
