Inkscape Halftones with Tiled Clones
The simplest way to create halftones in Inkscape is using the Tiled Clones feature. You can create clones of an object to cover an area, using the trace function you can automatically adjust the clones depending on the image below. In this tutorial I show you how to create halftones, I demonstrate some simple examples and then I go on to create a halftone portrait. I walk you through step by step so you understand what you are doing and why, you can use these methods to create your own artwork.
In this tutorial, I’m using the latest version of Inkscape - Inkscape 1.3.1

    They finally moved tangential and perpendicular snapping to the snapping menu - can't remember which version they did it on but if you go to the top right of the screen there should be a magnet icon. If you click on the triangle next to it you should get a small drop down menu, if you only have 3 options then you want to click on the Advanced mode at the bottom. You should now have the full snapping menu, if you enable snapping at the top, enable the nodes section, you can then enable tangential snapping at the bottom of the nodes section. Everything should work the same

    Those silhouettes could have been extracted quickly using Trace Bitmap. I don't find it reliable for complex images with a lot of detail and colours, but for silhouettes it's a lot easier and faster than manually drawing around the shape and clipping. Other than that, thanks for the tutorial. Papercut style can be a fun way to make complex art using easy methods.

      I don't know about auto select, but if you have a lot of object in your project you could quickly narrow it down sellecting half of them in the layers and objects dialog box (click on one then hold shift and click on an other object and it select all the objects in between). If it's not got a bounding box it must be in the other half, then half them again and repeat. (If it's in a group it won't get it's own bounding box).

    I'm using Inkscape version 1.3.2. I already made my letters in svg files and png files. How do I turn them into svg font files without redrawing them? They wouldn't look the same if I drew them in inkscape. I imported the svg image into the svg font template. What do I do now? I don't have the same version as you, so options are different or don't seem to be there at all.

    • @CreateForFree
      @CreateForFree Месяц назад

      You could open 2 inkscape windows, in one open your svg, in the second create a font as described in the video, the editor is laid out slightly differently but works the same. When you want to add your glyphs go to the first inkscape window select you glyph and copy it (right click and press Copy). Then go back to the second inkscape window and paste your glyph on to the layer for that letter, you can then adjust it. It does need to be a single path, so if it's a group, ungroup it, select all the part and goto Path-Union to create a single path. You should then be able to do the same with all of your glyphs and create your font.

    Had a question is it possible to cut out portions of the images without using the brush tool ? As in turning the image black and white and only keeping the area that is white and removing the black areas, for example there is a path and grass at both side, you only want the path and remove the grass area.

    • @CreateForFree
      @CreateForFree Месяц назад

      Easiest way is probably just to use the bezier tool to draw around the section you want to keep, select both the path and the image and go to Object- Clip-set clip and it will hide everything else.

    • @CreateForFree
      @CreateForFree 2 месяца назад

      You could change the detection mode in the Trace Bitmap dialog to Centreline tracing (Auto trace) which will try to draw a path along the centre of the line of your writing (Note: this uses a different algorythm, so there won't be a preview). It's likely there will be some defects in the trace so you will need to use the nodes tool to correct them. You could then use the power stroke LPE to adjust the line width or convert the stroke to a path (Path - Stroke to Path) and the use the tweek tool or nodes tool to adjust to your liking.

      @CreateForFree 3 месяца назад

      You should be able to use the same process as I used for the balloon image. Create duplicates of the image then use a combination of clipping and masking to create the soft and hard edges. You can also use Filters - Blurs - Feather to soften the edges. Another useful trick to know is that you can apply more than one mask or clip to an image by grouping the image on it's own and then clip the group.

    I have been poking around Inkscape a lot more since the upgrade and for some reason I just didn't feel like diving in for the details of how it all worked. It was the length of the tutorials that led me to shorter versions that were not comprehensive enough and I was left with frustration after every attempt to use the software. I recently wasted more time than I needed to correcting vectors in Vcarve Desktop. Several iterations later and still not what I wanted. Working with a logo a customer brought me that was a complete hand drawn mess. I needed to convert it so I tried every other way I possibly could. Each time I was left disappointed by the result. Trace Bitmap. Sounds great!! Over and over and still not quite what I wanted. Hand correcting hundreds of nodes and just getting burned out by it. Eyes glossy from looking at that shit too long. So today I made some coffee which at noon will turn into beers. Popped my ass into the students chair at 9 this morning and made a decision to find a tutorial that could move me from taking eons correcting software interpretations of vectors from a bitmap. To firing up Inkscape and using the pen tablet to just draw the thing correctly from the start. I managed to get the logo corrected the old way but it's the last time I'm taking that route. I told the customer I would have them done Friday possibly Saturday. I didn't finish cutting with the CNC until yesterday which was Tuesday. The time I spent trying to avoid sitting here listening, and paying attention to a... How long is this one?? 32 minutes!! I don't have time for that!! Let me just keep moving these dots around. I'll get it right! Man.. I am gonna have so much more time to get other shit done now that I found this tutorial. A first step in the art of tracing or drawing whatever you need to get from paper or your head to a vector image is learning how to use the pen tool. Thank you for making this tutorial. With Inkscape and my new found skills I'm gonna start kicking some ass here!!!

    • @CreateForFree
      @CreateForFree 3 месяца назад

      You can only scale in one direction from the oposite side or around the centre, I don't think there is a simple way to scale from the rotational centre which would be handy. But that said, where there's a will there's a way. It's abit of a work around but you could do it like this: Use the selection tool to select the obect you want to fix at a set point, click on it again to bring up the rotation handles and the rotational centre, you can then move the rotational centre to the point you want to fix. If you are likely to be scaling around the point repeatedly you could do it like this. With the shape or line selected press Ctrl +D to duplicate it. then flip the duplicate horizontally and then vertically. In the Fill and Stroke dialog box reduce the opacity to 0, then hold down Shift and select the the original object and group them together. Because of the way we flipped the duplicate before grouping the 2 together, the centre of the group is at the rotational centre of the original shape, so if you hold down Shift when scaling it will scale the original shape from it's rotational centre (the centre of the group). When you are happy with the result you can always ungroup and delete the duplicate. Hopefully that made sence, if not give it a go anyway it should work.
