[opensuse] Inkscape not exporting gradients with transparency
I have discovered that Inkscape is not exporting to pdf or eps or printing any object with a gradient fill and a transparency. These objects come out as white. Any idea how to fix this?

Export as image, convert image to PDF. It sounds silly but PDF doesn't support transparency, only gradients. So Inkscape can't export it. If you need it only in a small spot, a trick is to export the element with the gradient as an image (put it into an individual layer, export just this layer) and then create a second SVG image which uses the image instead of the real element. You should be able to export the second SVG as PDF and get transparency working (sort of). Regards, -- Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla a.k.a.
