Right-click and select "Save as..."

Yeah, right! However, the strange thing is that with this particular
window, right clicking does *not* provide a "Save as..." !!!! Is this a
quixotic behaviour of IE7??? I never experienced this before...

I apologise for such a simple post causing such problems! Have you tried
File->SaveAs? Or even right-clicking the link itself and going for 'Save
linked file'?

I see that the curve for the wine inside the class (not the open surface) is
not the same as the curve of the inner side of the glass. That is especially
true on the bottom. Is it done on purpose? Why?

Yes, to avoid coincident surfaces. There may be a small amount of
interreflection this way, but I can't detect it. This model is not the main
subject of the image it was intended for so I didn't try too hard.
I suppose a better way of doing it would be to make the wine/glass curve
match the glass inner surface exactly, and then scale the wine by
<0.999,1,0.999> or something. Must remember that! :-)

Of course!

Neither solution are satisfactory. For a long time, I think that PoV is
missing a way to cleanly deal with coincident surface: some declaration in
the scene that says "these surfaces are *meant* to be coincident, you must
handle them that way"

Hi Thomas,
If you can right click the link in Bill's note you should be able to 'save
target as'. Then from Inkscape's 'File', 'Open' dialog you can select 'All
Files' and double click the file. Or at least that works from Outlook
Express and the Windows version of Inkscape.
You should be able to save with an extension of either .svg or .xml and it
should open ok.
Regard,
Chris B.

Depending on the browser you're using, right click and select "Save Link
As..."?
I'm using Firefox 2 here, and it rendered the SVG properly and then I just
saved the page off -that worked fine for me.

Why would that make a difference?

Because I don't know that all browsers use the same terminology. I use
Firefox, avoid IE like the plague, and occasionally have used Opera. I've
never used Safari - so I wouldn't want to be seen as saying "do this and
it works for all browsers" when I don't know that to be the case.
