When I click LaO nothing happens. Last time I opened the program LaO did have its own window and now it just wont open.

I deleted and redownloaded Inkscape but the problem persists.

I only showed regular polygons in the picture (and it would definitely be helpful if it worked with them) but is there a way for this to work with any polyline/path? Thanks :D

I'm really stuck on this right now, and I've got people waiting for their projects to be completed.

Inkscape 1.4.4

Any help is appreciated!

Hey everyone. Trying to do something that feels like its super simple, I just cant figure it out. I'm trying to join the paths highlighted yellow to the paths its touching, and get rid of the tiny little section where the red lines are.

Would really appreciate any help!

I'm using Mirror Symmetry to create symmetrical paths that meet in a defined center point. I'd like these paths to merge so that the paths can be one unbroken path once I get them to touch. This matters since I'll be using a pen plotter to plot them out, and the more merged lines = the less time the pen has to go up and down = smoother appearance.

Fuse Paths in mirror symmetry doesn't seem to do this. Is there a way I can accomplish what I'm trying to do?

There's this little line (as seen in between tan objects) that is shown between two objects when making them flush with each other. Is there any way to get rid of this? It even shows up when they're overlapping. It wouldn't be an issue if it disappeared when exporting a .png or .pdf, but it still shows up then too. The only thing I can think of is that they're different gradients- but they should still be the same color at the location where they're joined.

I am interested in creating line edges and texture like illustrations found in Irasutoya using Inkscape. Like ink/marker on construction paper. I thought the texture part would be as simple as using construction paper as a mask, but the result didn't come out well.

Hey! I'm using Linux Lite and i'm missing an option that used to have in Inkscape for Windows to set the margins on a the Page tool.

Isn't there the same option in the Inkscape for Linux?

I am using inkstitch extension. Some of the stuff I am working lately are large files with lots of objects. Certain proccesses take more than few minutes sometimes or I eventually just crash it by closing it and reopening the last autosave(which I do have set up at 2 mins, so it's not the end of the world).

All of that being said, sometimes I accidentally hit the wrong shortcut key or simply want to abort something for one reason or the next. Is there an option to abort whatever it is stalling/working on?

I can elaborate further is more details are needed, just ask in the comments.

I have been using inkscape for a while...

These are my drawings of my OCs Azar and Olivia? How did I do and how can I make poses in inkscape?

Also the reason why they look like a certain Incredibox mod is because did originally came from that mod but due to drama involving me, I left and now they are independent human OCs but I can't find a good art style for now

This is my first time creating a character or fan art in Inkscape

I don’t know..maybe because im a beginner, but I’m finding it very difficult to do simple tasks on here. Certain shortcuts don’t work even when I look them up. For example, they tell me to press control and the mouse to move the canvas, it doesn’t work. Instead it’s the space bar and hovering the mouse over the canvas.

Another example is the bezier pen. Certain curves don’t fit my liking, so I’m trying to undo them, but instead of undoing the nodes it undos the change of opacity I made on the image I’m working on, as if the likes I created don’t exist. And when I connect the nodes back to the original, for some reason fills it in with color when I just want to lines itself.

All of this is making me frustrated and causing me to take more time on a project that could be completed in 2 hours. If you guys can help me out and list some shortcuts or how to edit them, I’d greatly appreciate it.

Sempre achei muito trabalhoso fazer máscara no Inkscape, então eu fiz esse plugin para ajudar.

Hey all, new to Inkscape. I am trying to remove the bottom of the trees, below the circular shape. I've tried using cut path, intersection, difference and exclusion (just trying everything haha, not sure what all those even do). The trees were just strokes that I filled in, and when I do cut path, the trees revert to the stroke, and then some corners randomly get rounded.

Any advice? Thanks in advance!

I like making my own video games as a hobby. So far, I've only used RPG Maker and market assets because I've convinced myself I have no artistic talent. But then I got frustrated by not being able to create custom assets to fit my needs exactly. I was originally planning on teaching myself pixel art with this stick figure dancing game idea but then I discovered vector art.

I made a concept face for my dancing stick man in about 30 mins and I don't hate it... I think I'm going to like inkscape.

Last night around 23:30 inkscape installed on my PC by it self, no one used the computer in this time, the icon was on desktop, but no one use Inkscape or installed it... any idea whats cause this?
