Bitmap tracing (both color and monochrome paths).Path insetting and outsetting, including dynamic and linked offset objects.Path simplification, with variable threshold.Converting to path (for text objects or shapes), including converting stroke to path.Node editing: moving nodes and Bezier handles, node alignment and distribution, etc.Path markers (ending, middle and/or beginning marks, e.g.Dashed strokes, with many predefined dash patterns.A gradient editor capable of multi-stop gradients.Color selector (RGB, HSL, CMYK, color wheel, CMS).Layers (lock and/or hide individual layers, rearrange them, etc layers can form a hierarchical tree).Grouping objects (“select in group” without ungrouping, or “enter the group” making it a temporary layer).Z-order operations (raising and lowering).
Transformations (moving, scaling, rotating, skewing), both interactively and by specifying exact numeric values.Clones (“live” linked copies of objects), including a tool to create patterns and arrangements of clones.Embedded bitmaps (with a command to create and embed bitmaps of selected objects).Text tool (multi-line text, full on-canvas editing).Shape tools: rectangles (may have rounded corners), ellipses (includes circles, arcs, segments), stars/polygons (can be rounded and/or randomized), spirals.
Drawing: pencil tool (freehand drawing with simple paths), pen tool (creating Bézier curves and straight lines), calligraphy tool (freehand drawing using filled paths representing calligraphic strokes). Please consider joining us if you have an interest, skill or positive voice you would like to offer. The historic baseline is the Sodipodi Hydra codebase. The process is an open, community-oriented development that focuses on a small core and extensibility. The software development of Inkscape adheres to open source standards, and is intended to provide the user community with a solid, usable product. The Download page lists released builds as well as some developmental and source code links. Inkscape is free! By this, we mean it is free of cost, free to use and distribute, and open to peek into the source code. The Inkscape application is used across a wide variety of industries (marketing/branding, engineering/CAD, web graphics, cartooning) and individual uses. Vector design is often the preferred method of image creation for logos, illustrations and art which require high scalability. If you are new to the process of creating vector graphics it may feel different, but you will quickly be pleased by the flexibility, and power Inkscape offers. Inkscape can take you from this stage to a final, professional-grade design format which is ready for publication on the web or in physical form. The design process may begin by doodles on a napkin, a sketched mindmap, a photo of a memorable object, or a mockup in software which really wouldn’t work to complete the project.
