Thanks for the reply Thomas. I think in order to do it I will need to do calculations: split the path into small segments, translate & rotate the symbol, etc. Looks like inkscape .45 is able to do what I'm trying to do. http://inkscape.org/screenshots/gallery/inkscape-0.45-patternalongpath.png

Is there a way to search the mailing list archives?

Thanks.
Amy

   I don't think you can do what you want.  SVG doesn't allow you to
"warp" the pattern along a stroke.  You can only fill the stroke with a
pattern.
