Nick, I am a full stack web developer and I have never been proud of my graphic design skills but on the occasion that I end up having to do it, I always end up watching 20 of your videos. Thank you.
When selecting files, you can just click the first file, hold down shift, and click the last. That will select them all without having to click on each.
Great tutorial, and glad to see you posting again! There's a built-in keyboard shortcut for Windows that automatically hides all windows to show the desktop: Win+D. Might be useful for you.
The batch export was there pre 1.2, as a checkbox, not as a tab in the export. And the rename object part is there via right click, object property. Love that they are making things easier in newer version though.
Great video! You can also use imagemagick to convert multiple images to an animated .gif in a single command (in this case `convert -delay 10 -loop 0 *.png spinner.gif` yields a similar result). This speeds up the conversion process significantly, which is helpful when doing a lot of conversion, e.g. when tweaking the .gif.
@@LogosByNick It doesn’t have to be tricks we can practice together we can create logo and posters and so on. It is better to practice the whole tools. I can’t live without ur channel 😢 u r my favorite designer
you can also use ffmpeg to do it, but you need to know it's command (it's commands are complicated, but you can look them up any time. once you know them, it's like liking this post (subttle plug)
I started working with Inkscape recently, and I don't know how to expand the canvas and place (expand) all the toolbox, tool controls, pallete and snap controls. Can you make a tutorial teaching how to put all these tools?
Lol, this might be the weirdest comment u would see but I use Blender to create gifs and motion designs but it'll always create a large size file so I thought about start using Inkscape then guess what? my man explained how to create gifs with Gimp which means I can still use Blender and export my frames "layers" and give them to Gimp to create the gif Xd Thx bro for the clear tutorial
Thank you for the lesson, that was very useful! Any chance of you setting your mouse curser to large, I have a hard time following your mouse pointer icon!
But there is a little more to creating GIF's in Gimp! Like optimization for animated graphic interchange format and the colours are also reduced i believe... Look in the Gimp main menu Filters -> Animation -> Optimise (for GIF). Cheers.
Ran into an issue with batch export on Linux. It was using the svg:g id, which was not the same as the inkscape:label. To fix this go into the XML editor and basically do the same thing you did with the object labels as such svg:g id="1", etc...
Great video Nick I noticed in all of your videos and most other videos on RU-vid talking about Inkscape everyone uses shortcuts keys I like using them also, but I notice I hardly ever see anyone use thes shortcuts d for dropper s for the selection tool or escape key to deselect all. Do you ever use any of these.
Awesome tutorial, I was looking for something like that. Question: I'm no Gimp expert, but can you export an animation instead of GIF as WebP? I'd like to use it for minimalistic website animations, why WebP file format is my format of choice.
I appreciated this but I do wish that it would have been animating the face shown in the thumbnail, could have piggy backed off another video showing how to make the face, a blink animation would have been a fun pay off to making the vector face
Hello, I have watched a few of your tutorial videos and thank you. Do you have one that pertains to animating svg files? or would this be the same steps and just export it to svg rather than png?
TOPIC REQUEST: Hallo Nick. Your tutorial videos are always so amazing. I try new things and double my confidence each time I watch. I am trying to find a way to "fold" guilloche patterns over themselves to add complexity and aesthetic appeal at the same time. I tried "Lattice Distort" and a number of other multi-layer tricks without success. I can't get lattice distort to undercut the image. am i missing some trick to this? The dedicated software that did this has disappeared from the internet (Founder, Torapp, etc..) there must be a way to "fold over" images the way a flag in a breeze looks. Thank you for your clarity and level of rich detail in your video style. -- Molly
Sadly i don't realy want to create a gif file since it is way bigger in size than an svg. It would be very interesting to create an animated svg. Even if it means to use some other software.
Please help. Is it possible to give the name of the exported page a default name? Not page1, page2 etc. I have 6 pages where I make graphics and then I would like to export them so that each one can have the file name I give it before exporting. Hope you can understand my question, i used google translator. Thanks
questions me ...have inkscape no instances only copy s of objects.. ?! or have the LPE ( modifier) system the possbilities to work with instances or have Inkscape a per layer a instance system ... I thought you can creat animation in Svg but without copy different object but with real path translation f.e. ... p.s. would be cool Inkscape have a timeline f. animation...... or Blender 3d could save a path animation as SvG... grest tut...thx
This is a bit OT but a while ago I bought your Inkscape course and have just recently started going through it again and have hit a big snag in trying to round the corners of a rectangle in that the latest version seems to do that differently than as you described (and even as there own help menu do). Do you have an update that shows how the current version works in regard to rounding corners of a rectangle? Also, I am converting over from PowerPoint (which I have pretty good proficiency). Is there a guide that shows a mapping from PowerPoint commands to Inkscape commands. That would be most helpful. Also is there a shapes library that has the PowerPoint shapes that I can load into Inkscape? That would be most helpful as well.
Hi Ron, sounds like your rectangle got converted into a path. If you create a new rectangle it should work as expected. The rectangle tool has not changed in years, it should still be working the same.
