Bug Description
There are still some devices and media, particularly in
digital video, that use non-square pixels. Currently
Inkscape has horizontal and vertical resolution
settings for export, but the vertical resolution
setting is tied to the horizontal. Please allow them to
be set independently, even though they should be tied
by default.

To post a comment you must log in.
Inkscape is vector not pixel based, and currently only the
one raster file format is offered for export (only one
natively, others are through extensions) so this seems a bit
beyond the normal scope of inkscape. However if a developer
were to submit patches there would be a much better chance
of the feature being accepted.
most likely you would be expected to export the files and
post process them in some other applications for the non
square pixels you need.
if you could describe a workaround it might be useful to
other users
