Great, I see it's a separate launcher, which is nice. Thanks for the video; that's all I wanted to know. Regards, Alfredo.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Taking SVG screenshots is real
BTW, I haven't tested it yet, Sergey. Can you tell me how the precess of the shot takes place? Do you have to execute *gtk-vector-screenshot *or the normal screenshots are automatically modified to use the package? Regards, Alfredo.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Taking SVG screenshots is real
Got it from the Libre Graphics Magazine issue 1.4 - http://libregraphicsmag.com/ ;) By the way, issue 1.2 has a really interesting article on Adaptable GIMP, this is roughly what we're trying to do with Scratch but better. I recommend reading that one. 2013/1/28 Alfredo Hernández > Wow!! I am completely astonished.
