![]() ![]() Maybe I'm making my objectives less clear or maybe there's and easier way? But with guidelines functioning the way I outlined in the illustrations above it's pretty simple and straightforward.and useful.Īnd, really (and the reason I'm asking) it's what I'm used to-all I know. I could know exactly on the page where each letter starts and how far apart the center of each oject was from the previous and from the subsequent. Or say I want to make a couple of letters of text into vector outlines, distort (skew, stretch,etc.) individual shapes and then re-space (kern?) them and re-colour or add a fill. And I want to put it centrally aligned with the circle and at a certain distance away from the circle.And then I want to add another figure (not a circle or a star) of yet another size. ![]() Now let's say I draw a star, smaller than the circle. I can pull a horizontal guideline and a vertical guideline, and I could pull in anotherof each to 'box' the circle. Well let's say I draw.oh, something simple like a circle.and I want to set it at a certain coordinate on the page, verically and horizontally, doesn't have to be relative to the edge of the pade. But that's getting away from your original question now. And also I think there's a feature where you can rotate the canvas. I think I heard that in the next new version 1.0, it will be possible to set the 0,0 origin in the top-left corner, rather than bottom-left. But if there is something like that, it's actual nodes and paths, part of the drawing, rather than the actual coordinate system. It seems like I might have seen an extension, or something.LPE maybe, that will draw a number line, a simple coordinate system. That's the only way I know to change the coordinate system. You can set the Guides to the coordinate system, but you can't change the coordinate system to match the guides (or to match anything else).Ĭhanging the page size will reset the coordinate system to the new page size. And no, it is not possible to reset the coordinate system to Guide lines (or grid lines either), in Inkscape. ![]()
