01:17 | To record this tutorial, I am using: * Ubuntu Linux 12.04 and Windows 7 OS |
01:24 | * Inkscape version 0.48.4 |
01:28 | Inkscape is an Open Source vector graphics editor. |
01:31 | It works on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. |
01:36 | Inkscape can be used for all kinds of 2D graphic design such as- |
01:41 | * To draw illustrations and figures/cartoons |
01:46 | * To create colorful patterns/backgrounds |
01:50 | * To create a web page layout |
01:53 | * To trace images |
01:56 | * To create web based buttons and icons |
02:00 | * To manipulate images for the web. |
02:05 | Inkscape can be installed on Ubuntu Linux using Synaptic Package Manager. |
02:11 | For more details on Synaptic Package Manager, refer to the Linux tutorials on this website. |
02:17 | Go to Dash home. Type: "Inkscape". |
02:20 | You can open Inkscape by double-clicking on the logo. |
02:23 | Now we will learn to install Inkscape on Windows. |
02:28 | Open your browser. Go to 'inkscape.org'. |
02:33 | Click on Download button. Select the Installer option corresponding to Windows. |
02:40 | You can find the sentence "Download Inkscape....." with this version. Click on it. |
02:46 | Notice, the dialog-box appears. Click on Save. |
02:51 | The installer file will be downloaded on your machine. Go to Downloads folder. |
02:58 | Double-click on the exe file to install Inkscape. |
03:02 | The default language is English. Now click on Next. |
03:07 | Again click on Next. |
03:09 | Again click on Next |
03:11 | Destination folder dialog box appears. By default, Inkscape is saved in Programs files. Now click on Install. |
03:20 | Inkscape is installing. This may take few minutes. |
03:25 | Click on Next. Click on Finish to complete the installation. |
03:30 | Now, the Inkscape software opens up automatically. |
03:34 | If not, notice there is a shortcut icon created on the desktop. Double-click to open it. |
03:42 | If both these methods to open Inkscape fail, you can click on Start menu > All programs and then on Inkscape. |
03:50 | The Inkscape interface will now be opened. |
03:54 | Now, I will switch back to Linux to complete this demonstration. |
03:58 | However, the steps shown will work in Inkscape on any OS. |
04:04 | The main drawing area is called canvas. This is where we will create all the graphics. |
04:10 | There are various tool options and menu options in Inkscape. We will learn about each one, in detail, in the series. |
04:17 | Now, let's briefly learn how to use Inkscape. |
04:21 | We will create a rectangle shape by selecting the rectangle tool. |
04:25 | To draw the rectangle shape, click on the canvas and drag. |
04:29 | Here is our rectangle. |
04:32 | Let me save this Inkscape drawing. |
04:34 | Go to File menu. Click on Save. |
04:38 | I will name it as drawing_1.svg and save it in my Documents folder. |
04:45 | Here, 'svg' denotes the default Inkscape file extension. |
04:49 | We will learn more about Inkscape and its exciting features in the coming tutorials. |
