Although I am really only guessing.Īlso, I wanted to encourage you to search at Launchpad, where bugs can be reported, and where developers read and respond to bug reports. But I have a feeling that using Import from the File menu, might enable you to sort of get around that difference. There is some kind of difference between "regular SVG" and "Inkscape SVG", which I don't really understand.

SVG, please try Importing from the File menu. Or are you using File menu > Import? If not, even if it's already. SVG, are you simply opening it in Inkscape?.

Well, in either case, even if it's already. SVG file? In one place in your message, you mention. The file that you want to use in Inkscape, do I understand correctly that it is already an. But I do want to ask a couple of questions. I doubt if I can really help, as I've never even heard of the program you're using. I'm not sure why no one has replied, except maybe that none of our regular members use this program? Thank you for your very detailed and thorough report. It is not very fast ! I can say a little slowly, isn't it ? Inkscape take 24 minits to do that ! That is 1.45 object manipulated/second ! I'v tried to create a group with 4200 objets : 4 hours !īut QCad Prof woks fine with so many objets but I can't load dxf file into my Scribus docs that's why I have to convert my drawings in SVG format. In this case, it is possible but when it will not be possible. My first way to get some solution is to brake my drawing in 4 or 5 parts. I have 2 GiO ram, a swap partition of 2 GiOĬPU Dual core Genuine Intel CPU 2140 1.60 GiHz. and when the objet must be moved 2500 places further. I only can move it using the arrows but step by step. The other times, the element I try to drag stay in his place in the hieararchy.

Using XML editor in Inkscape is also very very long and unusable !ġ time on 15, I can Click and drag a element in the list of elements in the XML editor. The file is OK but I lose all the layers. That's why I generate a SVG file from QCad Prof. I have had several problems when importing dxf file created by AutoCad and aloso fils from QCad Prof. My file is a image SVG (image/svg+xml) and is 4,4 Mio (4633454 octets) big. It use "only" between 4 and 12% of the swap memory. ! To recreate my drawing whith the different parts in they own layers : 8 hours !Īnd when Inkscape is cutting and pasting the elements of my drawing, it use 100% of the first CPU and between 30 and 90% of the second CPU, and it use 100 % of the mémory of my computer ! That represent no problem in it self but where I have a problem it is the time used to move the part of my drawing to the layer : 20 to 40 min. I'm obliged to cut them, activate the layer I want to use and paste them. I select a part of my drawing (100 to 200 little elements) but I can't mothem to a layer via the "Layer" menu. To do that, I create several layers and under-layers. I want to replace parts of my drawing in they own layer. The drawing, in QCad Prof have several layers where I distribute different parts of the drawing.Īll the drawing is open on the "background" of the file that Inkscape open. I save it once in dxf format and twice in the SVG format to be able to open the drawing in Inkscape.
