Library not loaded: /Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/Frameworks/amework/Versions/A/Sparkle Path: /Users/jenness47372/Applications/Terminal/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin This is the Apple report: Process: X11.bin This version keeps crashing and trying to reload. I used the previous version for GIMP with no problem. I originally put a copy of X11 in my Applications folder in my home folder. Should it be ok just to install this? Will it help and not break anything else. I'm having a similar problem to that reported by RODJEN. Please do your homework so you're ready for the XQuartz's challenges. Some bugs may mean that it won't install on or work with your version of Mac OS X. So if you like X11, download the latest stable XQuartz and get to work with it!īUT! Be sure to read ALL the documentation at the source website BEFORE you download or install new versions. INSTEAD Apple are going to direct Mac users to download exactly what we have here: XQuartz, the source project for X11. It is in fact a big, frustrating PITA to use X11 successfully! But the rewards are a lot of fun.ĪLSO NOTE: Apple are no longer going to provide X11 with Mac OS X! It come with the Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion installer. It takes unfathomable patience to use X11 because it is designed by geeks for geeks, not for average or even intermediate users. I also have unfathomably patience setting up this geek level stuff. But I am a geek and I have taken the time to learn how to use this. Don't write a one star review out of ignorance. If you don't know what X11 is, if you don't know what MacPorts are or what Fink/Porticus/PortAuthority/Pallet are, then don't download XQuartz. It requires knowledge of using the CLI found in the Terminal app for full capability. The XQuartz project is typically well ahead of what Apple provide. This is where Apple contributes to and sources what they provide with Mac OS X as X11. This means if you see Cmd +, translate that as Cmd Shift =.īut these are small issues, and the current Inkscape offers considerable improvements over previous versions, beginning with a nice new polished interface.This IS X11. Hide Inkscape (expecting Cmd H, has no shortcut assigned, and while normally you can assign one, and I did try, it does not respond except while accessing one of Inkscape's menu items using the mouse).Īlso, when the menu shows a keyboard shortcut containing +, what is meant is literally Shift =, not the Apple convention of listing all modifier keys like Shift explicitly. In my experience so far there have been a couple of quirks with keyboard shortcuts not being what one might expect. The first time you launch Inkscape, there is a screen to assist with the initial settings:Īnd it's as simple as that to get started. It all feels very familiar to a Mac user, and there's no hassle at all. The installer has a nice little splash screen. There are two installers, one for Intel Macs, and one for ARM64 Macs.įor anyone unsure of their processor type, check here: The current version as of this writing is 1.2.1 (download link) You can now install Inkscape from a Disk Image (.dmg) file, and there is no need to run it through XQuartz. Since some time has passed, I thought it might be good to post an update: YES
