Hi again,
while creating a document for my next workshop, I noticed that the default stripes 1:1 pattern I applied to a (circular) path does not render correctly, depending on the zoom level (at 417%, only the upper half of the object is filled, at 428% just a tiny stripe at the top has the pattern, and from 459% upwards the pattern doesn't show at all).
Second observation: png export of this object gives an empty circle without any pattern, depending on the selected resolution. At 350dpi, there's a fill pattern in the exported file, at 380dpi, I get a partially filled object, and at 400dpi, it's empty.
The file shows up (and zooms) correctly in Firefox (even the hatch LPE... which surprised me).
A striped vector pattern (created by object to path) exports correctly.
I found a lot of reports about missing patterns in pdfs and eps files, but none for pngs.
Is this problem known?
And one more pattern question:
The handles for modifying a pattern are often very far away from the object (if the page is large), and seem to appear in random places outside the page.
Sometimes, they are so far away that I cannot see the object when I try to modify the pattern...
Is there a workaround for this?
I guess this is known. Is it tracked somewhere?

Thank you,
regards,

A striped vector pattern (created by object to pattern) exports correctly at that resolution, but at a higher one, it also fails to show up.

Quoting ~suv (answer to original question: https://answers.launchpad.net/inkscape/+question/268146)
"The disappearing pattern paint seems to be a regression with the new cairo-based renderer (>= r10326) - AFAICT it is directly related to the distance of the pattern handles to the object with the pattern paint: if the handles are closer to the object, one can zoom in closer with the pattern fill still rendered visible. If the handles are far away, the pattern disappears when zooming in on the shape closely." |
