Inkscape is een opensource vector graphics editor en is in bepaalde opzichten te vergelijken met Illustrator, Freehand, CorelDraw of Xara X die gebruik maken van de W3C standaard Scalable Vector Graphics. De ontwikkelaars willen van Inkscape een krachtig tekenprogramma maken dat zich aan verschillende standaarden houdt zoals XML, SVG en CSS. Voor een overzicht van verschillende screenshots verwijzen we jullie door naar deze pagina. Versie 0.44.1 is sinds kort beschikbaar met de volgende aankondiging:
Version 0.44.1:Version 0.44:
- fix a crash on Windows ("python.exe can't find msvcrt71.dll") by providing that dll in the package;
- added missing German version of the advanced tutorial and made corrections to the calligraphy one;
- several changes to allow compiling on glib-2.4 systems (e.g. RHEL4);
Inkscape 0.44 is bigger and better than ever. Some highlights:
- Layers dialog
- Outline mode, many performance improvements
- Native PDF export with transparency
- Clipping and masking support
- Configurable keyboard shortcuts, including optional Xara X compatibility
- Docked color palette in the editing window
- Interactive indicator of the style of selection in the statusbar
- Innovative "node sculpting" and other improvements in Node tool
- Extensions are enabled by default and work on all major platforms
- Better SVG support: <switch> element, ICC color profiles for images
- Persistent rotation centers, Paste Size command
- New icons, redesigned preferences dialogs, rearranged menus, many cosmetic improvements
- Hundreds of bugfixes and smaller features
- Not directly related to Inkscape, but important nevertheless: since our last release, Firefox 1.5 was released with SVG support enabled by default. This means that you can now view any Inkscape document right in your Firefox window without any format conversions or installing any plugins!
