   in Page tab try "DPI" 2400, click Export, use zero (0) compression for image   
   size   
   of (about) 7628 x 7452 pixels, 1013104 unique colors, 217 MB; save and close   
   file;   
   reopen this file, in Layers and Objects (Shift+Ctrl+L) right-click Layer 1   
   (image)   
   and select "Hide/show other layers" to hide (all) other layers, export page   
   using   
   same 2400 dpi and 0 compression settings, but with a different (*.png) file   
   name;   
   close without saving and exit Inkscape; next, open this raster image file in   
   Gimp,   
   in View > Zoom > click "Fit Image in Window" [Shift+Ctrl+J]; in Image >   
   Transform >   
   click "Rotate 90* clockwise"; in File click "Export as" [Shift Ctrl+E], then   
   click   
   "Create Folder", type folder name (e.g. "90cw"), and name the file (e.g.   
   "90cw1");   
   set "Compression level" to zero (0) and click "Export"; next, in Edit click

   in Image > Transform > "Rotate 180*", then "Export as", "Create Folder"   
   ("180"),   
   name file "180-1", compression 0, export, close file; finally, repeat these   
   same   
   steps for the first png file with added overlay (circles, ellipses, color   
   fills),   
   to the same file folders, using sequential file names "90cw2", "90ccw2",   
   "180-2";   
   close file, exit Gimp, backup these (8) png files; save, share, view, print,   
   etc.   
      
   Using freeware Irfanview(https://irfanview.com/) for viewing these files in   
   full   
   screen, the lockable zoom [Shift+L] and pan [Shift+Ctrl+K] feature is   
   especially   
   useful for making slide shows from screen shots saved to groups of smaller   
   files   
   (screenshot pngs at 1920 x 1080 screen resolution average about 4.5 MB per   
   file);   
   open Irfanview, in Options "Properties/Settings"[P], in Viewing set "Main   
   window   
   color" to black, in Browsing set "Loop current folder", uncheck/disable "Beep   
   on   
   folder loop/stop or screen shot save", and set "Load next/previous file on   
   Mouse   
   wheel scroll" to Never; in "Full screen/Slideshow" set "Fit to screen all   
   images/   
   movies (3)", check/enable "Horizontal center image on screen", "Vertical   
   center",   
   "Use Resample function for first display of an image" and "Use Resample   
   function   
   for zooming", set "Screen color" to black; in "File Handling", for   
   "Save/Rename"   
   check/enable "Display 'Save'-Dialog for 'File->Save' menu"; click "OK" to   
   accept   
   changes; next, open any one of the eight 2400 dpi png files and press [Enter]   
   to   
   view it in full screen; using Windows 10/11, press [Windows key+PrtScrn] to   
   save   
   the first file in the default "C:\Users\[User Name]\Pictures\Screenshots"   
   folder   
   (in File Explorer, right-click this folder, click "Show more opt   
   ons"[Shift+F10]   
   and "Send to" Desktop to create shortcut); the default file name "Screenshot   
   (#)"   
   increases by 1 with every screenshot with no reset; this registry fix solves   
   it:   
   https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/6108-reset-screenshot-index-   
   ounter-windows-10-a.html   
   download "Add_Reset_Screenshot_Index_Counter_to_Desktop_Context_Menu.reg",   
   merge   
   so the Desktop Context Menu, Show more options, "Reset Screenshot Index   
   Counter"   
   resets the counter to 1 every time you click it (works fine on Windows 11   
   22H2);   
   to bulk rename files, select all [Ctrl+A], copy [Ctrl+C], then paste [Ctrl+V]   
   in   
   new folder, select all, right-click first file and click "Rename" icon [F2],   
   and   
   type name to replace "Screenshot" (#); backup, then delete files in   
   "Screenshots"   
   folder; the first four slide show folders might be named for the four   
   directions   
   looking up from the center of the earth, in counterclockwise order starting   
   with   
   South, West, North, and East; in zodiac terms Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius, and   
   Taurus;   
   like the four seasons Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring; Day, Evening, Night,   
   and   
   Morning; Life, Death, Afterlife, and Rebirth; the main thing is to be   
   consistent;
