I was playing around now quite some time with the svgfill feature. it's
a great feature! Nevertheless I experience obstacles, making parts of
the svg-grafic transparent. The only way I managed to come close to
transparency is by drawing an object in inkscape and setting its filling
to an opacity-value (alpha-value) of ca. 100. Then, imported to qgis,
underlaying layer shine trough.... but unfortunately it's only
semi-transparent.

Hi Markus
2. The new symbology is not yet supported in print composers legend....
I guess, thats may be coming in a later version?
Yes. For now, you could add a composer picture and move it over the legend as
a workaround.

Marco

Hi Marco, Hi Andreas
Thanks a lot for your assistance, so nice!
I am experimenting at the moment with the vector fill patterns. (that's
exactly what I am looking for).
There are two problems though I don't know yet how to overcome:
1. When I create a line in a 16*16 icon in inkscape and want to use with
SVGFill the background is just white - it would be great to make it
transparent, so one could see between the lines what layer is underneath.
2. The new symbology is not yet supported in print composers legend....
I guess, thats may be coming in a later version?

Hi Markus,
I don't know exactly what pattern you want to apply. Those are
fill-patterns not stroke-dashings or stroke-patterns?
Do you have access to the latest svn-version.
As Marco said, he just implemented vector fill patterns (with the new
symbology-engine) - but it was just recently checked in - so it's not
part of the QGIS 1.4 release. Because it is new, it also not documented
yet - but we can assist you if you need help.
You need to compile yourself or install the QGIS-dev version from
OSGeo4Win.
As Marco said - you cannot print to PDF yet without a workaround. You
would need to print to .ps and then convert the .ps to pdf if you use the
new vector fills.
Hope this helps,
Andreas

nobody any advice how to print out a map with line fill patterns that
are not too thin? (to visualize two layers that are above each other)
I am desperate, should hand in some maps and can't get over this
obstacle... so I probably will have to rebuild all my projects in
arcview just in order to print out a decent map...!
cheers
