| 00:01 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Create patterns in Inkscape. |
| 00:06 | In this tutorial, We will learn to create patterns using:
|
| 00:17 | To record this tutorial, I am using:
|
| 00:27 | Let us open Inkscape. |
| 00:29 | Click on the Star tool and draw a star in the canvas. |
| 00:33 | Now click on the Selector tool. |
| 00:36 | On the Tools controls bar, change the Width and Height parameters to 40. |
| 00:42 | Zoom in and click on the star once. |
| 00:46 | Observe that the pivot point is visible now. It's the plus shape in the centre of the star object. |
| 00:53 | Click and move the pivot point far away from the star, as demonstrated here. |
| 00:59 | Now, go to Edit menu, click on Clone and then on Create Tiled clones. |
| 01:06 | A new dialog box opens up. You can find many tabs and many options under each tab. |
| 01:15 | Under Symmetry tab, we can see a drop-down menu with various methods. For this 'demo', we will keep the option simple translation. |
| 01:25 | Change the rows and columns parameters to 1 and 40 respectively. |
| 01:32 | Next, go to Shift tab. Change the percentage of Shift X parameter under Per column to -100, as shown here. |
| 01:41 | Next, let us go to Rotation tab. Change the Angle under Per column to 10. |
| 01:48 | Now, click on Create button. Observe, a circle pattern is formed with the star. |
| 01:55 | Likewise, you can use the other options under Create Tiled clones to make many beautiful patterns. |
| 02:01 | Let us move this star circle aside. |
| 02:04 | Next, we will learn how to create a pattern along a path. |
| 02:09 | Select Rectangle tool and draw a rounded rectangle. Color it green. Then click on the Selector tool. |
| 02:20 | On the Tool controls bar, change the Width to 540 and Height to 250. |
| 02:28 | Next, draw a star pattern using the Star tool. |
| 02:32 | Click on the Selector tool. On the Tool controls bar, change the Width and Height to 50. |
| 02:40 | Place it on the top left border of the rectangle. |
| 02:45 | Select both the shapes. Go to Extensions menu. |
| 02:48 | Click on Generate from path and then on Pattern along Path. |
| 02:55 | Change the Copies of the patterns option to Repeated and the Deformation type option to Ribbon. |
| 03:03 | Click on Apply button and Close button. Observe, a beautiful pattern is formed around border of the rectangle. |
| 03:11 | Let us now create another pattern using Path effects. |
| 03:16 | Select Bezier tool and draw a wavy path. |
| 03:20 | Go to Path menu. Click on Path Effects Editor. A dialog box opens up. |
| 03:27 | Click on Apply new effect drop-down menu. Notice, there are various effects listed here. |
| 03:33 | Let me select Gears and then click on Add. Observe the change in the shape. |
| 03:41 | Next, select Sketch and click on Add button. Observe the effect. |
| 03:48 | In the Path Effect Editor, you can find various parameters related to the current effect. |
| 03:54 | Let us change one of them, say, Strokes. Let's change it to 10 and press Enter. Observe the change on the object. |
| 04:03 | Now, close the Path Effect Editor dialog box. |
| 04:08 | Select all the shapes and move it to one side. |
| 04:12 | Next, we will learn to create a tree pattern using Spray tool. |
| 04:18 | Select Bezier tool. Draw a tree-trunk as demonstrated and color it brown. Now, draw a leaf and color it green. |
| 04:38 | Select Spray tool and click on the leaf shape. |
| 04:43 | Now, without releasing the mouse, drag around the trunk to create a tree. |
| 04:51 | Observe a tree shape is formed. |
| 04:55 | That's all for this tutorial. Let us summarize. |
| 04:58 | In this tutorial, we have learnt to create patterns using:
