I am developing a star chart. As of now, I am using pure black color (HTML #000000) for the background to display the stars on. I have a sample that was printed by Posterbrain, and that was laminated. It has come out well, but the black color is very shiny (i.e reflective). There is also a light blue color on the ch...
After much trying tutorials and googling how to remove the black outlines of text in Inkscape (I think it's the "stroke"), I have no luck. I would just like to make a few designs for different color t-shirts and the outlines are in my way, meaning I would just like to have the "fill" of the text to remain. I would be ...
I am following this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywnMo2ZNQGM but my guides retain horizontal or vertical and don't rotate. When I activate Rotate tool I can only move cyan rotation center, but can't rotate guides. What can be done? AI is 23.0.1
I want to curve the line between points of a path using a specific value. Instead of dragging the line to curve it, I want to type a specific curvature value. Otherwise, it is impossible to get two line curved exactly the same way. The exact coordinates of points in a path can easily be set. However, I really haven't f...
Notice the small space before the letter L in the first two lines in the following image. It's more notable the larger the font size, but it's there in the second line too. The fonts in this example are Noto Sans/Noto Serif and sizes are 60/12 pt, but it's the same with other fonts I've tried. Is there a technical ter...
I would like to animate a key going into a lock, so that as it goes in it hides the part already inside the lock. How can I do it in synfig?
In most fonts the “8” is asymmetric - for example, with the upper circle being smaller than the lower one. I need a font where if you flip the 8 upside down by rotating it 180 degrees what you get is identical to the unflipped 8. Anyone know of some fonts where the 8 is designed like this? Thanks!

I would like to erase by hand with a brush or eraser tool, but I only want darker colors to be erased. For example, if a pixel under the brush is 100% black (luminosity=0), it would get 100% erased (turned to opacity/alpha=0%). If a pixel is a dark blue (say luminosity=20), it would get 80% erased (alpha=20%). If a pix...
I'm using Adobe Illustrator 2020. I just can't make points align. Notice I don't want to merge the lines. I want to make an anchor point of one line match/align with the another point of another line. When I release the point over the other one (when Illustrator smart guides is noting an anchor), the point goes elsewhe...
What is the name of this kind of vertical separator between sections? I've seen it somewhere but can't remember where or what it's called. It's likely a specific type of printer's ornament, however I can't seem to match it anywhere.
I need to produce a scale going from "bad to good". Usually red stands for bad and green for good. However, the target audience is global and in some cultures, red is actually good (e.g. China stocks are red when they go up, marry in red dresses and give presents in red envelops whereas stocks go down are green). Are A...

I'm currently learning UI design, right now I'm focusing on color. I make good progress, but now I have hit a roadblock I can't wrap my head around. I understood that it's possible to design an interface with just one color. The key is to create darker and lighter variation of that base color. For a darker variation, I...

I've recently come across a new menu command for smart objects - "Convert to Layers", I don't really understand its purpose as all it seems to do is reverting a smart object back to a raster layer. What is it meant to be used for where there already is the "Rasterize Layer"command?
I have a bunch of emf files that were converted from svg files with Inkscape commandline. The SVG files were autogenerated and have text objects. Within an SVG file, the text is nicely editable. For example in Incscape I can directly edit the text, add characters etc. After converting to emf (since I believe PowerPoint...

I'm not sure if my post is better suited for the Software Recommendations Stack Exchange. If so, then perhaps migrate it there. How hard would it be to design a computer program where you could use voice commands or a command line interface to draw a picture, in an interactive manner? Here is a sample of commands that ...
I'm looking for a good (i.e., efficient and flexible) Inkscape technique to achieve a selective "cutout" effect for indicating depth of and visualize separation between overlapping paths (like the "Knot" path effect, but between paths). My usual go-to for this kind of effect is to add a "phantom path" by duplicating th...

I would like to save some symbols that I have drawn in inkscape in some "homemade" library so that I can drag and drop these image later. Is there a simple way to do it?
I have this design (viewed here at 600%) that is going to be cut to the shape of the red outline (cut line only - not part of the design) I'm pretty sure my bleeds are good everywhere EXCEPT where the white outline from the pig intersects with the light yellow outline from the rounded rectangle making up the lower hal...
Desired result I'm trying to stack some CSS gradients together to replicate a fill pattern from Excel.

I have a dieline for a 3D cube which I will print my own design onto on my inkjet printer. How is best to print the fold / cutting marks without them interfering with the design? Would I just print them really thin and in a light colour so that the design gets printed over them?
I'm making a texture of a simple glowing orb on a transparent background.

I exported an image (from R) to SVG and want to modify it with Inkscape. My problem is that when I change the font size, it only changes it vertically, the width is not changing at all, which therefore disforms the text. The width of the text is somehow stuck and I don't know how to fix it.
I want to create a blurred gradient background effect similar to the designs below. How can I do this using Inkscape or Photoshop/Illustrator?
I have the color that's the result of another color applied onto a white background with an opacity of 50%. That color has the HEX #b4dcf7. Apologies if I'm missing something simple, but is there an easy way to get what the color would've been if applied at full opacity?
I'm using Inkscape to draw my diagrams and I would like to create a diagram of a singularity, so that it looks like a disk that is bent downwards in the middle, so a reverse tent, kind of like the diagrams used to illustrate the gravity wells of black holes.

I want to start designing posters that have 3D elements on them... like the below example where the glass objects interact with the design of the poster.

Figma keeps flattening all my text boxes! I have no idea why, I do not do anything with these text boxes except moving them around.
I have a main text spread across two columns. In this text I have a quotation block, with a different paragraph style (lower font size, indentation). This quotation block starts at the bottom of the first column, and ends at the top of the second column. Because of this, when the main text resumes in the default style,...

The circle/ellipse/arc tool works well, however, I am finding the tool is copying the last used circle somehow. I have previously tried editing the nodes, and fiddling until e.g. a circle looks perfect by eye. This will not do in the long run - is there something like a "reset" button, so a perfect circle is created? I...
I have a png image that I generated from a cad drawing using edge-detection. Only problem is all the lines have the same thickness.

I'm not conversant with this topic, therefore i watched a tutorial about a one-page dynamic PHP website (quite educational in my opinion) in which the creator designed the following pages.

It does not matter if it requires additional work or layers to achieve it, I would appreciate it if anyone can let me know if there is a way. Perhaps a third party plug-in would also help if there is one.

I'm working on a book layout and I need a way to create an anchored text box that has a thicker border on the page edge, sort of like this: I've looked at the border options and there doesn't seem to be a way to set an edge border relative to the spine, so I thought about just creating a rectangle shape and anchoring ...

This is typically a problem I encounter when expanding and uniting a blend in Illustrator, but I can think of other times when this would be helpful.

How can I progressively decrease the width of a group of objects or texts in inkscape 1.2? (From top to bottom in image below).

I have brandbrook provided, where only information is to use 1,5 pt stroke weight in my illustrations. How to correctly pick my lines stroke weight in pixels in 1920x1080 resolution? Does it mean that If I had 100x100 resolution, I would need to pick 1,5 px?

Is there a divider or compass tool in Inkscape or Gimp? What I mean is the drafting tool called a divider is a way to scribe an arc a fixed distance from a point. The compass does this also. I naturally searched for this tool in Inkscape and Gimp and gathered that no such direct tool exists. So I am also interested to ...
I'm currently working in Illustrator (CMYK, Fogra39) and the colors on my artwork are nice and deep, but when I want to recolor them via "recolor artwork", the colors displayed are a lot duller which makes it hard to tweak the colors when the ones shown are not the ones in the actual artwork.

How does Inkscape handle nodes in scripting? Or can the nodes be written out in some way? Or perhaps there is a better place to ask about this: I have a simple manual clicking routine that seems a good candidate to automate using Inkscape scripting: Draw one circle. Move the circle so the center snaps onto the first...
I am moving very large circles in Inkscape, snapping the centers to nodes on another shape (see links below). I have to fish around with the circle to get the snap guide to appear. I have marked the arbitrary shape with markers, so I tried that for the circles, but the markers appear on the perimeter - not the center. ...

I want to vectorize this image, automatically if possible (at least to get to a starting point). It would be a lot easier if I could somehow blur it so the dark lines separating the mosaic tiles disappear. Any way to do this so the shapes get vectorized rather than the little tiles?
Does Inkscape have a way to put points on a curve or line so the coordinates of the points will be written to the svg file? I seem so close to doing this, but perhaps I need a different program. The example image shows a Bezier curve (using c in the svg) with two nodes, markers on each of the two nodes (but no more), a...
I'm designing a Koozie and did not get the printer's template until after most of my design was done.

The problem with monospaced typefaces is that all glyphs have to have the same width, but different characters need various amount of space. For example, fitting ‘m’ to the same width as ‘i’ results in that ‘m’ is too narrow or ‘i’ is too wide. Also, monospaced typefaces can't use normal kerning because that could dist...
