Customization

Inkscape has many opportunities to customize.  This easily leads to an enhanced personal workflow. It also helps users of other graphic software to easy the translation to Inkscape.  Almost all of Inkscape customizations are done in a XML format, including the icons that are SVG (which is XML based.) The two exceptions are extensions which can be done in any programming language (but the majority are currently done in python) and palettes which are GIMP palette files (*.gpl).

All customizing can be changed at  both the system and user level.  Allowing site specific customization and user personalization.  The User customizations will always override the System customizations. Samples of all customizations can be found in the System Directory on all platforms. Locations varies depending on OS/Platform, but here are the most common ones.

 OS/Platform

 System Directories

 User Directories

  Unix and Unix-like systems including most Linux platforms

 

/usr/share/inkscape 

/usr/local/share/inkscape

 ~/.inkscape

 Mac OSX

/Applications/Inkscape/Content/Ressources/

 

  Windows systems

C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\


Things that can be Customized

Icons

Take you new icon set and replace icons/icons.svg with it. You many want to backup this file first is you are replacing it in the system directory. You can add to the User directory without worry about it.

Hotkeys

keys/default.xml 

Menus

menus.xml

Palettes

Add your new Gimp palettes (file extension .gpl) in the palettes/ sub-directory.

Extensions

Templates

These are empty svg files with the size defined, along with things like snapping and grid preferences. Place new templates in templates/ sub-directory.

Tips

When altering default files, make a backup/copy so that you can always use it again encase something doesn't work out with the change.
