edit] Is there a way to apply a gradient to a stroke so that it bends with the stroke?
FAQ - Inkscape WikiA stroke can be painted with a gradient, but that gradient will not bend with the stroke. It will remain linear or elliptic. If you meant something like this, then Inkscape can emulate such effects using blur (use the Blur slider in the Fill and Stroke dialog), possibly in combination with clipping (see this screenshot).

Related QuestionsWhat is a stroke?
NewswiseStroke is an abrupt interruption of constant blood flow to the brain that causes loss of neurological function. The interruption of blood flow can be caused by a blockage, leading to the more common ischemic stroke, or by bleeding in the brain, leading to the more deadly hemorrhagic stroke. In any event, proper blood flow and oxygen must be restored to the brain as soon as possible. Without oxygen and important nutrients, the affected brain cells are either damaged or die within a few minutes.
Related QuestionsStrokeA stroke is sometimes called a "brain attack." A stroke can injure the brain like a heart attack can injure the heart. A stroke occurs when part of the brain doesn't get the blood it needs. Ischemic stroke (most common type) -- This type of stroke happens when blood is blocked from getting to the brain. This often happens because the artery is clogged with fatty deposits (atherosclerosis) or a blood clot.Related Questions
Stroke Frequently Asked QuestionsStroke, or brain attack, is damage to part of the brain caused by sudden block of its blood supply by a clot. Less commonly it occurs when a clot travels through the blood vessel from one part of the body to the brain (embolism) or when there is rupture of blood vessel and bleeding into the brain (haemorrhage). When blood flows to the brain stops, brain cells in that part of the brain may die. Stroke may damage parts of the brain that control how you move, feel, speak, think and behave.Related Questions

FAQ - GnuCashThat is, is there a way to move all transactions from one account into another? That would save a lot of time compared to moving each transaction! A: Kind of. If you want all the transactions in one account to move/merge into another account, you can reparent the to-be-deleted account under to to-be-moved-into account, and then delete the to-be-deleted-account. GnuCash will ask you if you want to move the transactions, and you should answer "yes".

FAQ - Inkscape WikiMany people wonder why questions asked on the Inkscape IRC channel generally do not receive an answer. There are several reasons for this. Second, you may have asked the question wrong. A common error people make on IRC is to say something like, "Can someone answer a question?" without actually indicating what the question is. Most people won't respond to this, because they have no idea what they'll be asked, and they may not know.

FAQ - Inkscape WikiYou can start with the Doxygen documentation. There you can find not only the usual Doxygen stuff but also different categorized views into the inkscape source. In the Documentation section of the Inkscape website you can find some high-level diagrams and links to other documentation that's been produced such as the man page. Historically, this codebase has not been kept well documented so expect to find many areas where the only recourse is to work through the code itself.

World Wind FAQ - World Wind WikiWe realized this problem almost immediately (there are approximately 2 million places with 3 million more about to be imported) and we're going to associate a "Place" with a country or geographic identity. Perhaps you will type in "Paris France" and you will only get matches that have those two keywords. Also, if anyone hasn't noticed, the searching tool is case sensitive, and that will of course be changed as well.
Related QuestionsWhat is a stroke and what are the warning signs of stroke?
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) - Texas Heart Institute Hea...A stroke is an injury to the brain that may also severely affect the body. A stroke happens when blood supply to part of the brain is cut off or when there is bleeding into or around the brain. This can happen if a blood clot blocks an artery in the brain or neck or if a weakened artery bursts in the brain. Risk factors for stroke include high blood pressure, smoking, heart disease, diabetes, and a high red blood cell count. The risk of stroke also increases with age.

NewswiseStoke is the third leading cause of death in the United States and the number one cause of disability, with more than 3,000,000 people currently living with physical and mental impairment from brain damage caused by stroke. On average, someone in the United States suffers a stroke every 53 seconds and every 3.3 minutes someone dies of one.
Related QuestionsIs there anything that I can do to prevent a stroke?
NewswiseModifiable risk factors for stroke are easily recognizable and treatable and, if managed properly, can reduce a patient's risk of stroke more than ten-fold. Following are modifications you can make to your lifestyle to reduce your risk for stroke: Control your blood pressure. High blood pressure is the leading cause of both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke and should be treated and kept to a low level of 140/90. Eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly.
Related QuestionsWhat is an ischemic stroke?
NewswiseAn ischemic stroke is caused by atherosclerosis, or the build up of cholesterol-containing fatty deposits called plaque. As the plaque roughens the inside of an artery and the vessel begins to narrow, the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the brain becomes disrupted. A thrombolic stroke is the most common form of ischemic stroke. It occurs when a clot, or thrombus, develops in arteries that have been narrowed by fatty buildup that has formed on the inner layers of the artery walls.
Related QuestionsWhat is a hemorrhagic stroke?
NewswiseA hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel in the brain leaks or ruptures and blood spills into the surrounding brain tissue, thereby preventing needed oxygen from reaching the brain. The most common form of hemorrhagic stroke, known as a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), occurs when an aneurysm that has weakened over time balloons and suddenly bursts, forcing blood into the area surrounding the brain (subarachnoid space).

Related QuestionsWhat is heat stroke?
Frequently Asked QuestionsHeat stroke is the most serious heat-related illness. It occurs when the body becomes unable to control its temperature: the body’s temperature rises rapidly, the sweating mechanism fails, and the body is unable to cool down. Body temperature may rise to 106°F or higher within 10 to 15 minutes. Heat stroke can cause death or permanent disability if emergency treatment is not provided.
Related QuestionsWhat causes a stroke?
Quality Health | Strokeischemic stroke develops when a blood clot blocks a blood vessel in the brain. The clot may form in the blood vessel or travel from somewhere else in the blood system. About 8 out of 10 strokes are ischemic (say “is-KEE-mik”) strokes. They are the most common type of stroke in older adults. A hemorrhagic stroke develops when an artery in the brain leaks or bursts. This causes bleeding inside the brain or near the surface of the brain.
Related QuestionsHow is a stroke diagnosed?
Quality Health | StrokeSeeing a doctor right away is very important. If a stroke is diagnosed within the first 3 hours, doctors may be able to use medicines that can lead to a better recovery. The first thing the doctor needs to find out is what kind of stroke it is—ischemic or hemorrhagic. This is important because the medicine given to treat a stroke caused by a blood clot could be deadly if used for a stroke caused by bleeding in the brain.
Related QuestionsCan you prevent a stroke?
Quality Health | StrokeOnce you have had a stroke, you are at risk for having another one. You can make some important lifestyle changes that can reduce your risk of stroke and improve your overall health. Eat a heart-healthy diet that includes plenty of fish, fruits, vegetables, beans, high-fiber grains and breads, and olive oil. Get regular exercise on most, preferably all, days of the week. Your doctor can suggest a safe level of exercise for you. Control your cholesterol and blood pressure.

Related QuestionsWhat are the effects of stroke?
StrokeIt depends on the type of stroke, the area of the brain where the stroke occurs, and the extent of brain injury. A mild stroke can cause little or no brain damage. A major stroke can cause severe brain damage and even death. A stroke can occur in different parts of the brain. The brain is divided into four main parts: the right hemisphere (or half), the left hemisphere (or half), the cerebellum, and the brain stem.
