How to launch after a port?

Hi Marius,

I hadn’t installed the inkscape-app until you mentioned it - I have done that and I can now see a MacPorts folder under Applications complete with an Inkscape icon - thank you!

However, when I try to launch it, Inkscape appears in the Dock bouncing so it obviously wants some attention but I can’t figure what …

Sorry guys - I don’t want to flood the list with dumb questions although all help is definitely appreciated …

I’m running the 10.13.5 v4 developer beta on this machine - I wonder if that is causing problems?

Roy
