A New Inkscape Pictorial

If it helps anyone I'm using the .47 version #21612-0906172010 which you download here I think the date is June 17th.

I haven't had a play with that yet and tried to refine where the cut area is except it cuts where it is on the screen, unless I assume you are out of the cut area.

Doreen if it is doing a test cut you should be able to cut, so it might be your settings are not quite right or it doesn't recognise you design as vector.

I just used the rectangle tool and drew a square Lucille.

I'm using June 20th so that could be the problem. I've got a thread going here
http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/boards/...d.php?t=268204 which could also be the problem.
I phoned Brian and he thinks my antivirus might be blocking part of the installation. I'm uninstalling the antivirus and going to try again to solve it

I'm still using 0.46, so that could be why it wouldn't do it. I'll attempt to download 0.47, thanks for the link Lucille.

No I think it is the rectangle, when you first draw them they don't have what I call real nodes, do Object to Path and try again, fingers crossed.

Still not working Lucille but I've got rid of the box that my pops up every time I turned the machine on and it's installed properly now HOORAH

I hate to tell you this girlies, but I just opened Inkscape .46 and it still works!! I'm using RM 5.1 does that make a difference perhaps?

**Fuschia** · 03-07-2009, 05:03 PM

I think Doreen uses 5.1 too Lucille.

Yes that's what I use Anne

**Fuschia** · 03-07-2009, 05:05 PM

So it must be something 'we're' doing wrong then Doreen.

I've added it to my first post, but I'll put it again here in case you didn't see it, could it be any of the following that I'm using and your not, if there is anything else you can think of that might affect how it works.

WinXP
RM 5.1
and it cuts from both .46 and .47
CR - CC100

I'm using all of those except my Inkscape is June 20th and my Robo is the latest machine could that be the problem

**Fuschia** · 03-07-2009, 05:11 PM

I'm using

Vista (this could be the culprit)
RM 4.4
Inscape .46
