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

Who knew I could have just scrolled down a little instead of creating an abomination of a workaround using grids 😂

Using the paint bucket to isolate a piece from a complex shape is genius. It is gonna save so much time.

@IronEchoDesign Жыл бұрын

I used to make fun of the Paint Bucket tool, and it still rankles me because it doesn’t always do the same output. Has its uses though.

@@IronEchoDesign Nice trick! There is also another way in recent versions of Inkscape: select the nodes, copy them, then paste. It will paste those nodes only.

Cool Magnifier Tool. C'mon Rick, please make the marble texture video. Been looking for it for so long.

@IronEchoDesign Жыл бұрын

Thanks. Here's one method. It would be a very short video, but please let me know if this helps. 1. Import marble image 2. Edit- Make a Bitmap Copy. 3. Select the new Bitmap Copy. 4. Object- Pattern - Objects to Pattern. 5. The marble texture is now loaded into the Pattern Fill choice on the Fill and Stroke Menu. 6. Create any new shape, and on the Fill tab, choose Pattern Fill. You marble pattern will be loaded in the last spot. 7. Zoom way out. Way way out and look for the X, circle and box. You can use these controls to resize and move your marble texture inside the shape. Let me know if this will serve your goals.

@IronEchoDesign 9 ай бұрын

The Fill and Stroke menu remembers the last setting used. So, if you create a circle and remove the fill color, then the next circle you create will also have no fill color and be empty.

Any idea where the guides ability has been moved to or how to access it in 1.3? This tutorial is 1 month old and already outdated. Searching for 'guides' on Inkscape only gives actual guides (lessons, tutorials, etc) and the release notes only mention some things have changed but not to where or how to use them. Very frustrating the first thing to do in the tutorial is literally impossible unless your a wizard lol

@IronEchoDesign 11 ай бұрын

Oh no. This video is too new to be antiquated. There is a chance they took away Guides Creator which would be a shame. I use it all the time.

Inkscape is good. I like Inkscape. Unfortunately in my designing, I use a lot of bevels and other 3D effects and Inkscape's bevels are really horrible. So, I have to go in for paid software like Affinity.

@IronEchoDesign 11 ай бұрын

I still use Photoshop for similar reasons. Only after I’ve done the main design though. Inkscape is getting better with each version, and maybe the bevels will improve.
