Inkscape and Mac's Recent OS Upgrade

[FranMike Harley]

Today I downloaded and installed v10.11.4 of OS X (El Capitan). It's the newest version, just came out yesterday to all.

 

I just tried to open an Inkscape file I had created a few days ago but nothing happened - although Inkscape and Quartz does show as  "running".

 

I decided to try a new download of Inkscape first and "replace" the version I had out there (although the 2 versions are the same) and after I did that, the same file that wouldn't open before, magically appeared..

 

Now, I'm not sure why but that worked for me. So if anyone else is having the same issue, try re-installing Inkscape and see if that helps..

 

Good luck !!

Thanks for the tip.  I haven't updated yet.

 

Speaking of which, are you able to use keyboard shotcuts in Inkscape on the Mac?  The shortcuts don't work for me.  I'm guessing it's because it's working in the Quartz shell.  I use a lot of keyboard shortcuts and it is frustrating to work Inkscape on the Mac.  I usually switch to a PC to do the bulk of my design work.

Hi Travis.. Yes, I am able to use the keyboard shortcuts..  I only use a Mac so I don't have the choice of switching to a pc..

No issues for me on my Mac, but I am a beta tester, and had the 10.11.4 for awhile now
