Inkscape problem

[Haleyintraining]

I'm working on something in inkscape, and it won't save. It's not frozen, and everything else will work, but it won't save. Can someone help me?

there might be a message window from inkscape open somewhere. try to minimize all other windows and see if you can find it.

I checked, but it still won't work.

Well, sometimes buttons get stuck for me - but it usually go away after a quick restart. But I suppose you're after a solution without turning it of...

[Threeshades]

does the save window open?

also did you try "save as" instead of "save" or the other way around?

[Elder Tsofu]

I suppose you have tried ctrl+s - have you? (stupid question I knoow )

[Haleyintraining]

I tried everything suggested, and I ended up having to restart and lose it. Thanks for the help, though.

Incsape is like fishing, sometimes you get this real biggie on the hook and struggle with it for an hour - and then the line snap.

since this problem is solved, or well, lets just say not up to date anymore...

I can help out with a new one... I can 't find any option that allowes me to chance the standard settings of the drawing tools. I need to increase the hand drawed lines from 1,000 to 2,000, but I dunno how to do it BEFOR I draw something, i can only do it after I'm done with drawing : /

If I understand you correctly:

• File/Inkscape Preferences (Shift+Ctrl+P) or just doubleclick the tool in question.
• Pen/Pencil, set it to 'last used style'

Draw a line, set it's thickness and all lines after that will use that same setting. There might be a more elegant solution but it works.
I myself prefer setting thickness later after fine-tuning.

yay, worked, thankys.

yapp, it sure is better to set thickness after the fine tuning, but atm I m just doing LOTS of really simple stuff that doesn t really need fine tuning, and I got a bit annoyed from setting thickness every time I draw something. This will help saving lots of time, lucky me... and next time I will do backup saves from my stuff, so I don't have to start from the scratch again... *hates losing all his prepared comicstuff due to broken hard drive*
