📱 What screen recorder am I using?
I use Camtasia to make all my videos. From my experience it's the best screen recorder available, and I like the built in video editor and cursor effects. Check it out here: techsmith.z6rjha.net/ba9x0M

Hi Rick, I haven't watched your newer videos since 1.3 came out because I'm still on 1.2. But eventually I had to come back and watch, because your tutorials are just so much fun. 😁 Hope you're well!

Tiled clone is massively underused. However, the more objects you use, the harder it is for your hardware so for anyone reading this, keep that in mind before setting tons of objects. If your PC/Mac/Laptop slows right down, reduce the amount of clones

@Inkscape-tutorial-pl 2 ай бұрын

It's massively underused beause of it's poor usability. It's powerfull but it has lags and being unstable. I wish there was LPE that gives these functions.

That unset stroke/fill is also very important when working with symbols. I didn't discover that until a few weeks ago. Wish I known that 2 years ago. lol

@@IronEchoDesign there is a lot of little features that I am now discovering that I wished I had discovered 2 years ago. Like bucket fill. I must enjoy doing things the hard way. Inkscape sort of reminds me of an Android phone. It is very powerful - if you can figure out which button to press.

The result of the video looks a bit different than what you show at the start. I like that start mosiac more - it looks like someone actually put those tiles in following invisible lines and curves - if you know what I mean. :) How did you create the one at the start?

@IronEchoDesign Ай бұрын

Thanks! I made the first one off camera, taking my time to get it just right. The one I narrated on video was done live.

hey thanks for the video i'm always trying to replicate as soon as i can. But i run into an issue. All the clones come in 1 single row ( all 5500 ish of them ). I have all the settings the same as in your example.

@IronEchoDesign 2 ай бұрын

Thanks. All clones in a single row means something is set in one of the tabs. Try pushing the reset button on the menu a few times and then enter a small number like 5 rows x 5 columns. See if that solves the one row issue.
