The SIF output extension is now part of Inkscape’s development repository. It adds a “.sif” option to Inkscape’s “Save As” Dialog. Please help test it to make sure that the version that ships in Inkscape 0.49 runs smoothly.
A small favor: once this extension reaches stable, we ought to make an “Extension page” somewhere (though this is not really a Synfig extension). Is the Inkscape community willing to host this? I ask because it’d be cool to have an easy-to-locate place for treasures like these.
jcome: I’ve figured out what’s happening with the stroke width, I’ll fix it as soon as I can. (I forgot to take transform attributes into account for the stroke width)
tushatin: The only extension repository Inkscape has right now is a wiki page. It’s a great reference, but not very user-friendly. I think the Inkscape forums would be the best place to advertise it on the Inkscape end, and I’ll update the Synfig wiki once this extension becomes stable. (I’ll need all of your help determining when that is, though).
I found some issue with new version (the prev version has the same issue):
after converted to sif
1, the geometry becomes open
2, there is one unexpected vertex as shown in attached screenshot.
I’m fine with any way you can reach me. If it’s a private file you can send me an email, if it’s not private you can attach it here. (There should me an “email” button in my profile.) Private messages here on the forums might allow attachments as well.
The reason I asked was because I couldn’t find an email address in your profile, nor does this forum allow private messaging. Ah, hell, here goes nothing. box.net/shared/53z20imbkku4doe1qbdx
BTW, Synfig’s importing of SVG directly isn’t accurate either; blines go haywire and elements go missing. @_@
Only forum moderators and administrators can see the emails. Anyway it is very easy to find nikitakit’s email in any of his code commits. (synfig.git.sourceforge.net/git/g … ;a=summary)

My email is in fact public knowledge (from the git repo), but for some reason I still feel uncomfortable posting it on public forums. It doesn’t really make sense. I need to think about it.
A new “stable” version of svg2sif is out. It’s mostly bugfixes - there aren’t any new features.
I’ve been running automated tests on the openclipart collection of SVG files, and that’s turned up quite a few bugs. The only major problem remaining is the way that multiple subpaths are treated. I’ll try to come up with a better algorithm for that in the near future.
