[Bug 208217] Re: Masks don't work on print or PDF

 

I think this bug is back again in Inkscape 0.92+ (Fedora 26 but not
exist in inkscape flatpak), and when I tried to set a mask by a
rectangle full with gradient from white to black, the shape disappeared,
when I released the mask again the rectangle turned to black without
gradient. I tried this process again but I inverted the gradient (Black
is up and white is down) and the after (mask- set) step, the shape still
itself without any transparency, when I released the mask the rectangle
turned to  completely white this time. so I think the bug is that the
mask set by one color from the gradient, almost it is the second color
as I noticed.

Title:
  Masks don't work on print or PDF

Status in Inkscape:
  Fix Released
Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When printing on 0.46 branch, objects with masks don't appear on the
  print.

  In the attached picture, the turtle sitting in the water has a mask
  with a gradient to make his feet fade into the water. He prints fine
  in 0.45.1, but in 0.46 branch he's gone.

  Exporting to bitmap works fine on 0.46. Printing to bitmap (Render as
  bitmap) works fine also on 0.46. Save as PDF via cairo keeps the
  turtle but loses all blurs (blurs not implemented in PDF) and the
  mask, so his legs are fully visible. I think PDF should be capable of
  a blend to transparent, because the leaves on the bushes blend to
  transparent and they export to pdf beautifully.
