Color markers to match stroke paint in Inkscape 0.91

Question

The new version of Inkscape 0.91 doesn't have the Extensions -> Modify Path -> Color Markers to Match Stroke anymore. How do you color markers to match stroke in 0.91?

Answer 1

They should just take the stroke color automatically.

After upgrading to 0.91 it first didn't seem to work for me but that was because I had selected one of the "pre-colored" markers that show up in the marker list. After selecting one of the regular markers (below the horizontal line) it worked just fine.

Answer 2

Until they fix the bug, you can copy the old 'Modify Path -> Color Markers to Match Stroke' extension from inkscape 0.41 to the extension folder of your 0.91 version. This will allow you to use this extension again.

1- download inkscape's source code here:

2- extract the .7z file you just downloaded and go to the folder inkscape/share/extensions/ inside the extracted data.

3- copy the files markers_strokepaint.inx and markers_strokepaint.py to your extension directory. See here how to find your extension folder

4- close all instances of inkscape and start again. You should get this important extension back. =D

Answer 3

It seems to be a confirmed bug.

If you login in launchpad you can click on the green link to show that it also affects you, that will give priority to the developers to fix it.
