Hello, yes, you get right to the source and make it super easy to follow and understand. The one thing that could be easier to follow is making the cursor more visible to when you're moving, e.g, to the corners, top etc. I would lose you and needed to reply video few times. I'm sure it's probably more visible on computer but not on the phone. Thank you!!

I just discovered your YT channel tonight. Thank you! I was still using Ver 0.92. So glad I learned about 1.2 from your video. Although I downloaded a version long ago, I've never had an opportunity to work with it until today. I'm still trying to figure some things out, and it helps how you've brought up some similarities to Photoshop. I'm trying to quickly produce a log that I have in PNG, but I can't figure out how to cut my image in half. The logo is like a compass rose, with a gradient circle under it. I figured out how to create a 4-pt star and modify the node to make the star 4 skinny rays. I duplicated it, rotated the duplicate 45 degrees, and shrunk it down so I had 4 cardinal and 4 ordinal points. I created the gradient circle on a separate layer. The one thing I just haven't been able to figure out is how to cut it in half from North point to South point, then delete 1/2 of the N and S points, and everything through the eastern hemisphere for both the star points and the circle below. I would appreciate a quick tip!

Thank you, @@IronEchoDesign - I just found one of your videos that's focused on Trace Bitmap and it answered some of my questions, at least the theoretical ones. I've been cramming my brain full of tutorial videos but need to actually *make* something. If I understand correctly, once I've traced and have a vector, i can use the paths and/or the bezier pen to tweak the resulting image? For example, I have a tree I drew in either FireAlpaca or Sketchbook, and the trunk is definitely too short. I can stretch it vertically after doing trace bitmap, but I am guessing I can just *alter* the trunk. The other thing I'm wondering about may betray a fundamental lack of understanding on my part: Is there a symmetry button or mode for drawing new stuff in vector? It's fine if there isn't; I can do horizontal symmetry in my other programs, but it would be really nice if I could find a symmetry mode for actually drawing and improve workflow. To avoid getting overwhelmed , I searched a little bit and didn't find anything and stopped looking, but I often find that the terms I use aren't the terms that graphics programs use for the same operations and functions. Anyway, thank you for responding and for all your content!

Hi again. Love this all over quick tour of inkscape. You mentioned any other things that are worthwhile for the help file. When doing gradients and copying them or text with gradients... the scaling tool (at 20:42) the 3rd option. (Move gradients in fill and stroke along with the object) it helps to keep the gradient from shifting to plain colors when you move a duplicate or the original from it's place. (same with the 4th option for patterns) I got frustrated when making filled text with gradient then moving it into a position only for the gradient to be gone or not what I'd made. So this was something I learned too! Thank you for the videos. I always learn new stuff when I visit. (I was having problems with my circle text... Fixed! just by re watching this video) You are a great teacher. There's always something new and exciting to do in inkscape! Cheers

what needs to be done in this case is known as "tracing a bitmap" where bitmap is any photo file (jpg, png etc) and tracing is the conversion of said bitmap to vectors by the editing program, Inkscape here. there are tutorials by Rick and many other graphic designers out there sharing their knowledge on Inkscape which you'll find helpful.

@IronEchoDesign Жыл бұрын

Thanks so much! I made the same move from Photoshop years back and still miss being able to do perspective distortion so easily. The nature of Inkscape being vector-based software doesn't allow this task to be done thr same way. There is a Path Effect that does perspective but I believe it only works on objects or groups of vector objects. If anyone reading this knows a good solution, could you chime in?

Totally new to inkscape. Using my Surface with no mouse. 5 minutes into the video, where I need to do the circle, I could not do it. Will now need to run out and buy a bluetooth mouse 🤦🏻‍♀️. I really hope I will be able to learn this programme.

Good luck on your Inkscape journey! I recently got a tablet device, and I'll try to see if there is a workaround. Mouse will work right away, but maybe there are keystrokes for the surface? Not sure.

super thanks! is it possible to work with more than one gradient lines (like in illustrator..)

@IronEchoDesign Жыл бұрын

Thank you! Yes, you can set up multiple gradient lines using the Mesh Gradient tool. It let's you choose the format- rows x columns, and you can add extra stops or bend the gradient bars. Pretty fun.

Man this is good!! Thank you! Any chance you'll do one for 1.3?

@IronEchoDesign 5 ай бұрын

Yes! I’m behind schedule. I should have recorded the 1.3 update in the Fall. I’ll shoot that video next. Anything in particular you’d like me to include?

its cool for what it is. It suffers the same thing that most "Beginner" videos suffer from. It isn't....

hola, Thank you for your videos, I am new to this program and I want to know if there is a tool like Illustrator fusion, to combine objects and the number of steps for it, thank you

@IronEchoDesign 4 ай бұрын

Thank you and great question! I haven’t used Illustrator in so long. Inkscape had path functions that do combine objects but I’m not sure how they differ from AI fusion. Any Adobe people who may be reading want to chime in?
