Bug Description
In some cases (may be when I merge various elements from various svg files, but I am not sure of what causes it), inkscape does not export the result with "save as", as it appears in inkscape's window, missing many, sometimes most, of the elements.
For instance, the attached svg file gives the following result, if I save as png:
http://
when it should be:
http://
as is what appears on the screen. The good image was obtained with 'export as' rather than 'save as'. I have the same problem if I save as pdf, rather than png (my ultimate goal). When it works, the exported pdf is lightweight and of good quality. Converting the pdf through an image however gives ugly and heavy files, so I would prefer exporting directly as pdf. I have encountered this problem on many occasions but cannot figure out what causes it (many times it would export just fine).
I have Inkscape 0.47pre4 r22446 (Oct 15 2009) on kubuntu, installed by apt-get.
I use the extension textext (http://

When you say 'Save as' vs 'Export' - do you mean 'Save as Inkscape SVG' or as 'Cairo PNG'?
Note: 'Cairo PNG' was originally used for testing Cairo-based export and probably should have been removed from the filetype list in the 'Save as' dialog. To obtain good PNG files from your SVG files use 'File > Export Bitmap'.
