Next time we will learn about making effects and drop shadows, which are, the things that made everything look smooth and lovable. You should get a new skill to trace images. Which method do you like the most, automatic or manual?Īll for now.
Look for a car as simple as possible and try to trace it.ģ. Look for another flower and try to trace it.Ģ. These are long-term exercise you may try to enhance your tracing skills.ġ. Now you can color, fill color, move, resize, rotate and edit the vector image then delete the bitmap one. Do step 5 patiently until you can connect the last point with the first point.ħ. Move cursor down a bit following the flower contour, click Bezier and release click, you made the first line.Ħ. Click Bezier and release click on a left most point of the yellow part of the flower. We will start from top to bottom, from left to right direction.Ĥ. Import the flower image into the document.ģ. Required tool for this method is Bezier for making lines, Zoom to sharpen your vision, Union and/or Combine to combine lines.Ģ. Click here to download flower image JPEG. We will use this bitmap to exercise vectorization. As we know, it is not editable, or more precisely, not scalable as it is not a vector image. It's a photo of yellow flower in the dark. The result of vectorization is the same image in editable, scalable vector format, that can be saved as SVG file.īelow is a bitmap image in JPEG format. This involves two methods, automatic and manual, and both are supported in Inkscape. Vectorization in this discussion is the methods used to change any image, usually bitmap, into editable and scalable vector image. Subscribe to UbuntuBuzz Telegram Channel to get article updates. We will practice through examples of the two of vectorization methods, automatic and manual.
After we had learned about Cropping in the previous part, now we will learn about vectorization, also known as tracing or simply redrawing. This is the 8th part of Inkscape for Students the Series.
