Re: [Mars-sim-developers] inkscape problem in editing svg

[Scott D. <mar...@gm...>]

Hi Manny,

I've been doing fine.  I hope you are well.

I loaded the lander_hab.svg file in my installation of Inkscape (version
0.92.3).  It had a dialog that this file was created in an earlier version
of Inkscape and needed to be converted from 90 DPI to 96 DPI, but it seems
to load correctly once that is done.

I saved it again with Inkscape without problems and it will now load in
Inkscape without having to convert the DPI value.  I ran the Mars
Simulation Project and the lander hab appears correctly in the settlement
map tool.

I wonder if you accidentally edited the lander_hab.svg file before saving
it, or that it became corrupted somehow.  It appears that white circle
representing the floor was deleted from layer "frame", and layers "central
ladder" and "interior" were changed from 50% to 100% opacity.

I've attached my copy of the lander_hab.svg that was saved from my Inkscape
with the converted DPI.

Best of luck.

Scott
