In this tutorial I'll be going over the select tool in Inkscape and all of the functions and features associated with it.
This tutorial is for Inkscape version 0.48 and is intended to teach you how to use the software.

oh I have been using Ink for years and you showed me in the first 7.5 minutes was more than I knew for those shortcuts and how to use some functions in a better way than I was. Thanks!!!

Hi Nick, I use additional two features using select tool: 1) Alt Key + Right Button /or/ Alt Key + Scrollwheel - To select object hidden below completely another object. 2) Holding Alt + dragging - To maintain 'below hidden object" selection, and to move it. You made me to switch completely from Affinity Designer to Inkscape. Im indie game developer. Thank you so much for your great tutorials! :)

If you fill and object with a pattern you can modify this pattern using a not so visible widget. 1) Fill the object with a pattern and Make zoom to be able to watch the upper corner of the document. 2) Then press N to see nodes. and you wil see nodes in the upper part of the document. 3) Then you can tweak the pattern in size (Square shape) , rotation (Circle shape) and position (x shape).Pressing Ctrl you can constrain the operations. Thanks for your tutorials . They are really well done.

I really appreciate your tutorials. Thank you. You often duplicate a shape before performing an action. I would love to have you explain when an object should be duplicated and the thought process behind it.

I'll try to explain that in the next one. Basically, I duplicate it because I need to create something out of that shape without losing the original shape

You're amazing! I love your website and the logos are beyond words. But can you do GIMP explained as well? Like, describing everything in GIMP just like you do Inkscape.

Absolutely. I just recently learned about turning the stroke on and off by holding control and clicking on a color (or the X) from watching someone else's tutorial, and I've been using Inkscape since 2009. Always new stuff to be learned.

Hi Nick. Thank you very much for tutorials. For them, just I recognize Inkscape. I have a question: what program you're using Linux to display the mouse buttons in the lower left corner of the screen?
@LogosByNick

The program is called "keymon"

I love the tutorial but part of me feels like you should be using the default theme - especially when teaching new people.

So hard on the eyes with all the white. Mine is still white and it causes eyestrain every time I try to learn on it. I have to stop early and come back the next day.

Hi Nick, I've watched several of your tutorials and would like to make a few suggestions that might be helpful. 1. Reduce your screen resolution before starting: when watching your tutorials on KZfaq, it's sometimes difficult to follow because the icons you click on are really small. At a lower screen resolution, they would be easier to see. 2. Take account of the KZfaq overlay when your video is paused: when I'm following your explanation step by step, I pause the video so I can do the action. But when KZfaq is paused, there's a semi-transparent overlay and it stops me being able to see the icons properly (which ones are on, which ones are off, etc. 3. Be careful to speak slowly enough and not talk in quick, short spurts: occasionally, I've had to play back something several times to figure out what you said. 4. The dark theme can make stuff difficult to see: I love the dark theme, too. but maybe visibility would be better if you used the default theme. 5. Be careful about habitual expressions of speech: in one tutorial, I think you said "Now, what I wanna do..." about a hundred times. :-D It didn't add anything to the explanation, but it did get a *little* irritating... :-) Anyway, hope this helps. Your tutorials are *really* good and I will watch more of them. Thank you for your great work. I like how you don't miss a detail and, in the end, I can always reproduce what you demonstrate successfully. More power to you, mate ( and, yes, I am using laxatives regularly :-D )
