This week, I had the pleasure of creating the latest Inkscape update while Martin recovers. It covers recent improvements, Bug Accelerator progress, community extensions, and ways you can help support Inkscape.

Inkscape Developer fell Ill but the Community came to the Rescue 🥰️
This week's update is by Roland Taylor, and special intro animation by Chris Rodgers. Special shout out to TeruTeruBozu for help. I love you guys! This is what community is about ❤️❤️❤️ I have been recovering from my appendix exploding. Dangerous, but caught early and treated well. I am recovering.

If you haven't already, give it a 👍 as this shows more people are affected by the issue. This helps developers prioritise the issue. Equally if it's still happening in 1.4.4rc potentially worth commenting that it is still happening, to save a dev checking when they get to the issue.

In the fill & strokes menu, you can change how the line endings look. Another option could be to have the lines join on a straight, rather than the corner.

If you've got elements that need to remain the same throughout your #Inkscape design, consider "cloning" them rather than duplicating them. When the original object is modified, all its clones are as well, making it easy to keep elements consistent. inkscape-manuals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cl...
