Currently, Sketsa Visual tool generate all coordinates and lengths without a unit identifier. Which mean the given coordinate or length is assumed to be in user units (i.e a value in the current user coordinate system).
In order to save as a svgz(compressed SVG file), on the file save dialog box, specify ".svgz" as the file extension. For example type "test.svgz" instead of "test.svg".
In order to move or resize Text Object, please use Transform tool (translate or scale).
You can change in the Preferences - Code Format. By default Sketsa use Presentation Attribute. In there you also can change several other values like tab witdh, line width, or line break. For style it only affect new or modified element, it does not change existing element.
You can change canvas size using source editor and change the outermost SVG width/height attribute. If the width/height attribute using percentage value, you can change the default width/height in Preferences - General.
Although, we try not to change your SVG code too much, certain SVG code rewriting is necessary to make it work better with Sketsa. However, the changes done by Sketsa is still SVG valid syntax.
Because there is not enough memory to perform the required task. To specify Sketsa memory, please use Java option -Xmx to specify the maximum size of the memory allocation pool. For example to use 256 Mb memory:
- | Edit the following file [install_dir]/etc/sketsa.conf |
- | Find the following default_options |
- | Edit the -Xmx128m to -Xmx256m |
Note: The '#' indicate it is a comment
It is because the Sketsa use relative path to reference external resources. Please check the external references is available and in the correct path.
It is because some image viewer does not support alpha channel correctly. Those viewers
display black transparent background instead of white background. In order to avoid this
please select Force Transparent White option on the export dialog box. It controls
whether the encoder should force the image's fully transparent pixels to be fully transparent
white instead of fully transparent black. This is useful when the image is displayed
in a viewer which does not support transparency correctly and lets the image display
with a white background instead of a black background.
Note: using Force Transparent White option the result image
will display differently over a white background in a viewer that supports transparency.
Current Sketsa release requires width and height attribute in absolute length (not percentage) in outermost svg during editing. Later, you can change the width/height attribute during the deployment. We are still looking for good solution for this problem.
It could be the viewbox attribute. Please try remove the viewbox attribute during editing and check whether it solve the problem or not. You can add the viewbox back for the deployment.
It is because cut, copy, and paste only copy the element itself, it does not copy the parent attribute or the referenced element. For example if the parent have transform attribute, the parent transform attribute are not included or if the element reference gradient, filter, etc those referenced elements are not included.
