How to Add a Drop Shadow in Inkscape (Beginners Tutorial)

Рет қаралды 6,045

Күн бұрын

In this Inkscape tutorial, I show you how to add a drop shadow to text and objects using a built-in drop shadow filter. I also show you how versatile this tool can be by adding multiple drop shadow effects to a single object, plus non-destructively editing text and the drop shadow filter after applying the effect. This is a great way to enhance your vector graphics or designs!
Inkscape is a free scalable vector graphics editor most similar to Adobe Illustrator and Affinity Design.

This is an excellent tutorial. Thank you for demonstrating the shadow and glow filter, and especially for the neat trick with the filter editor!

Great video man, but the text where I applied the shadow effect gets pixelated when I print the document (.svg), on the screen it seems fine. I'm using Inkscape 1.3.2, perhaps a bug?

I chose this video to ask these questions since it is your latest to date and would have a better chance of you seeing the comment. I am using Gimp and trying to piece together a map using screenshots I took from a LiDar website. I know this falls under Layers. How do I make a canvas to work on that is the right size? And how do I lock them all together onto the canvas once I get them correctly placed ? (I can do the placing in the correct position part) The thing is, the photos overlap each other to make sure I have the entire map when finished. So there is parts of each photo that are not needed. Incidentally, all of the photos are oriented correctly and do not need to be rotated at all. Perhaps you already have a video on this, but I've not been able to find it. If not, is this a subject for a future video?
