Just getting into Inkscape. When I use the pencil or "Draw Bezier lines.." buttons, I follow the instructions in the manual to get the intended effect to get a horizontal or vertical line.
Except, I cannot see the line itself. In the examples the line shows up, but after I stop highlighting it, it goes away completely. The other lines turn out fine. Below is a picture of my screen.
My opacity, and alpha are correct for the line segment (as you can see from the screenshot), so I was wondering what I'm doing wrong here.
Thanks!
Try setting a stroke instead of a fill. And make sure you are in a visible layer.
