Inkscape Explained: Path Functions 

Thank you! I aim to make my content as useful as possible with the least amount of fluff possible. That's the way it should be.

totally agree. and he articulate every word!

Yes!

really he helped me a lot

YES! Thank you for not rambling on and not getting to the point. I watch your videos because they can be short and to the point. I don't have to wade through off topic dribble. I recommend your videos all the time.

Hoping you'd pin it. I'm getting more into Inkscape, finding your tutorials incredibly helpful. Thank you. 🙏

if he add a 00:00 timestamp and put it in description the video will be segmented xD

@@fuseteam Is this comment for the author or me? I added the 00:00 time stamp in my original comment, if that helps.

@@danielmartin7873 it for the uploader; if the uploader adds you're comment as it now to the description youtube will segment the video properly. so yes very helpful xD

This should of been in the video description but at least pinned to the top

To clarify for juniors like me- first you need to go to: TEXT -> PUT ON PATH and then you can do PATH -> REVERSE.

Also, before that, gotta convert the circle or square that you draw into a path using Path>Object to Path (for the Reverse thing to work)

No only that, but it has an important effect on how fills happen in combined paths. For instance, a text "O" is created with two circles which are combined, one inside the other, with opposite path directions - therefore the fill occurs between the two circles, thereby creating the glyph "O".

Even more important if you are using Inkscape to control a cnc machine of any kind. Path direction matters a lot in this case.

This! Can't afford traditional college, so I enrolled in the 'University of RU-vid' and Nick is one of my favorite 'professors.'

Thank you for the feedback. Glad you're liking Inkscape.

***** grouping just groups the selected objects. Any changes you make affect all of those grouped objects. The union function unites two or more objects into one object. The color will be the same, etc. In a group the objects are still individual objects. As for the setup, Inkscape can be configured and move things around. Honestly I get a little confused on changing the setup. Maybe Nick can shed a little more light on that subject.

Haha, thanks. There will be more.

Yeah, Nick is amazing. He even offers paid books at just $9 dollars!! I wonder how good his paid Courses are, with his basics and free stuff being pure Gold.

Amazing work, Nick. When I need to know anything specific about Inkscape delivered in a no nonsense manner, you are my one-stop shop! Thank you so much. Be well.

Thanks, I'll be making more of these videos so long as they get positive feedback. Hope they help! Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback. I'll be creating more.

Good to see you Nadine!

@@LogosByNick Nice to chill and enjoy your tutorial. I love opening up an Inkscape page and following along with each step you take. Have done that with everything of your's I've watched. I find there's so much more to it than the educational and informative side, for me it's stepping out of day-to-day stuff and into a really good zone. Great combo of restful and motivational. PS Restful because your tuts are so beautifully clear. Like a breath of fresh air compared to the crazy backward ways I use Inkscape.

Thanks, trying my best!

Thanks. Yeah I figure that's the most practical approach An all-in-one video would take me an eternity to create.

Thanks!
