Description D. V. Wiebe 2007-03-15 00:12:11 UTC 
Version:           1.4.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.4.6 
OS:                Linux

It would be nice if plots could be exported to SVG, as they can be exported to pixel graphics currently.  kst's plots seem ideally suited to vector graphics.

   We get this for free with KDE4.

Sweet.
Comment 3 Andrew Walker 2007-03-15 18:41:09 UTC 
I see plenty of information on Qt/KDE supporting rendering of SVG in the near future, but nothing about be able to save to this format. Could you provide a URL giving more information? Thanks.
Comment 5 Andrew Walker 2007-03-16 19:50:38 UTC 
So we would need to take a similar approach for SVG as we currently do for EPS.
 
The former is slightly more complex as it will presumably not be natively supported by QImage::save(...) as EPS is (although not in vector format).
Comment 6 George Staikos 2007-03-16 20:25:35 UTC 
All of this drawing code and printing code will be redone entirely.

As said above, this will be automatic for next major version
