2016-12-22 13:17:47 su_v description The new About screen for upcoming Inkscape 0.92 exposes a long-standing issue in Inkscape's cairo-based renderer with cairo >= 1.12.4. Thin lines disappear completely when zooming out, or down-scaling such objects (e.g. as group). Steps to reproduce: A) with current RC 0.92pre4 build: 1) launch inkscape 2) open 'Help > About Inkscape' 3) shrink the size of the About dialog B) with any Inkscape build >= 0.91: 1) download about.svg from repo [1] 2) open 'about.svg' in Inkscape 3) zoom out repeatedly The smaller the overall output of the line-art drawing, the more it may change appearance because thin lines disappear. Inkscape's cairo-based renderer does not expose the same issue with older versions of cairo <= 1.12.2 (see attached screenshots with a slightly older trunk build). Reproduced with Inkscape 0.92.x r15275 and cairo 1.14.6, 1.15.5 (git master) on OS X 10.7.5. ===== Likely related issue: Bug #1174909 “inkscape fails to print thin lines to PDF” (not fixed with latest cairo from git master) [1] https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/0.92.x/files/head:/share/screens/ The new About screen for upcoming Inkscape 0.92 exposes a long-standing issue in Inkscape's cairo-based renderer with cairo >= 1.12.4.
