Name conflicts when not using a single image folder #39

Closed dafred94 closed 3 years ago

dafred94 commented 3 years ago

My project folder looks like this:

.
├── mydoc.tex
├── topic 1
│   ├── im.svg
│   └── text.tex
└── topic 2
    ├── im.svg
    └── text.tex

In mydoc.tex, I input topic 1/text.tex and topic 2/text.tex. In the former file, I use includesvg{topic 1/im}, in the latter file I use includesvg{topic 2/im}.

Of course in the svg-inkscape/ directory that is created on the same level as mydoc.tex, the file names are now ambiguous and one of the images can be seen a second time instead of the second image in the rendered document mydoc.pdf.

Is there a way to instruct your extension to be able to differentiate between the files by including information about the relative path between images and the root tex document? I believe that option inkscapename should be the way to go but I couldn't figure out how to use it...

Thanks in advance!

This is an already known problem (#11) and unfortunately I haven't found the time to fix it properly yet. With inkscapepath=svgsubdir the created files are stored in the respective subfolder.
