- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ส.ค. 2018
- Inkscape is professional, free, open source Vector Graphics software.
Notes from this tutorial:
⦁ To have objects together, select one of the objects first, then hold down the shift key on your keyboard and select another object.
⦁ You can have as many objects selected as you want using the same procedure. You can then move them, change their colors, size, etc. at once.
⦁ If you click on the Esc key or on any part of the page the objects will be deselected
⦁ To keep the selected objects together, click Object in the menu bar and choose group. The objects will remain together even if you click on an empty space on the page.
⦁ You can also group objects by holding the Ctrl + G in your keyboard.
⦁ To ungroup the objects, select ungroup in the menu bar.
⦁ You can duplicate an object or a group by selecting it and holding Ctrl + D in your keyboard.

Thanks for producing such a good series of tutorials. Very good teacher!
Your channel is amazing buddy. Thanks for all the tutorials you make, I just realised I can find tutorials for every single software I use on here.
This is my 3rd day on your Valuable videos.. Learn a lot.. And enjoying Inkscape... Thanks a lot. 💐💐💐
Thank you so much for these tutorials! They are awesome. For those of us with Macs, instead of Ctrl , use Command. (Command+C instead of Ctrl+C to copy, for example) Instead of alt key, use option key (for example, to select an item that is beneath another item)
Thank you! I was already in a bit of shock to see that Alt + drag wouldn't work, and that "Ctrl + D" was supposed to be used instead, and then I thought I was losing my mind when that wouldn't work either.
For grouping, it's not the "ESC" that re-groups them, you have to double-click outside to get out of single-entity-edit mode and go back to them as being a group.
Good call! Thanks for the correction.
@@TJFREE These are great videos, very much appreciated!
That’s why I was having trouble! Thanks

You're welcome!
Thanks for these tutorials!
I'm using 0.92.2 on a MacBook and clicking Esc doesn't exit group editing to get the group selection back. However, Ctrl+Backspace(Delete on Mac) or clicking an object outside the group does. It might be because Inkscape is running inside of XQuartz but I'm not sure. While researching this I also learned that Ctrl+Enter is an alternate to double clicking to enter the group.
That's good info, thanks for sharing! I don't use Mac much, so I can't offer a lot of insight. I appreciate users like you sharing these tips!
Thank you for useful info!
awesome thanks!!
Exact Prob I was having. Thanx
Thank you :)
love it
This video is so~~ helpful~ Thanks a lot!!! lol
You're welcome!
Excellent tutorial! I like the grouping for sure. Is there any way to apply an animation to all objects in a given named group (i.e. border color) - thank you!
When I double-click an item in the group, it ungroups even if I hit the escape key.
The copy option is also in the right-click menu
Gracias muchacho.
Süper JOB ... Thanks
Yoü're welcome!
Great lessons for learning Inkscape. I remember in one of the lesson you manipulated a star in such a way it looked like points on a dial. Which lesson was that?
I love your tutorials and am working on my computer as I watch them to see if I can do what you are teaching. In lesson 4, where you grouped the snowman and then show how to tab to see the shapes drawn and their order, my Inkscape is not showing all the shapes on my screen. I have a square and oval and it will tab thru them but it dies not include the snowman. This is the same as when I hid the oval under the snowman and tabbed to the oval with alt, I was not able to bring the oval to the top of the grouped snowman. There is something going on with the grouped snowman that is preventing these other functions working. Can you help explain what it might be?
Bro you are awesome. Want to grow myself as u
I like Ctrl + C - Ctrl + V better than Ctrl + D because copy and paste is a skill that works across other programs and there is only so much storage capacity upstairs.
Great tutorials! My computer doesn’t show all those colors at the bottom. How do you get that to happen? Thanks!
Nice software, really loved it to learn. Suggestion: Kindly show KEY-BOARD KEY also on the screen on suitable place so that we can relate it, see it and easily remember the COMMAND.
Awesome tutorials. Question that I hope you see. At 6:58 you say hit escape to return to the group. This doesn't work on mine. I am using a Mac. Is there a key I'm missing or is it an update issue?
So ive been watching your videos and theyre very helpful, however I noticed your toolbars show a lot more options than mine & im trying to figure out how to have mine show more. For instance if I want to change the level of an object I have to go into the object menu and change it from there. I don't have the icon handy on one of my toolbars. Is there a way to change this? I've been trying but I can't figure it out
4 down thanks
this reminds me a lot of coreldraw
Nice :)
i love then you say"ops"
A couple questions...
1) when you are scaling the object bigger and smaller is it changing the dimensions that it is, or just the viewable size?
2)when you are scaling things up and down in size is there s setting available that keeps the stroke width the same instead of having it scale with the object?
I love these tutorials. Just wondering. You've mentioned that Inkscape remembers the properties of the object you last drew which is really useful in most cases. But, is there a way to switch to a default rendering, rather than having to undo all the characteristics you previously used? E.g color, opacity, stroke width and so on?
Hi Russ. Good question. On the top menu bar Edit > Preferences > Tools > Shapes > click on the object (ie Rectangle, Star, etc...) and there will be an option for 'Style of New Object'. By default, it is set to 'Last used style' but can be changed here. Hope that helps!
@@TJFREE it doesn't work for me, i go to ' Edit > Preferences > Tools > Shapes > ' i choose the object and change the settings and the object when i make it stays the same
@@TheFefiiiii, your theme might be messing up the UI selections. When I use Win32 theme, some of the menu selections don't seem to apply. To fix, select a different theme or use the system theme for best outcome.
Is there a way to view the individual objects (like on the side panel) that are on each layer?
What video have you maybe made a drawing for a funnel???
Gold
How do you use divsion on 2 or more groups at the same time so it divides all at once in inkscape?
How do you make a coloured object which is transparan with the other, so the object behind still can be seen ?
How can I change my workspace like yours especially the one on the right?
I know this is an old video but here goes. When I group some objects the fill color changes to the last object I had selected.
