Inkscape just keeps getting better and better. Kudos to the developers! 🎉🎉🎉

[@deanjones2525]

There is a lot to explore with this update. Thanks for filling us in on that.

[@DaviesMediaDesign]

Indeed there is - my pleasure!

[@maciejgrzyb4514]

We can all be happy that the creators of Inkscape are working and improving this program to make it better and better! Cool features were added in 1.4, so I'll check what's going on now because I've already downloaded the new version :) Thanks for showing what's new :)

To fix the font cutoff underneath the option turn the scale factor to 150 or above and that should solve your problem. After that you can use the settings under the tab to scale the font to whatever preview size you desire.

I wish they would add one thing to the patterns. A pattern to path. Inscape would be great for generating repeating pattern geometry for other programs like blender or free CAD

Wow, bravo Inkscape team. Not trying to throw any shades, but It seems like they are the complete opposite of the Gimp team.

[@jonah1976]

Well, to be fair, it's not that hard to beat GIMP. It's like competing in a triathlon with an opponent who's in a wheelchair with square tires.

I noticed at the 7:03 mark a slide bar briefly showed up when you hovered over the checkbox indicating to toggle it off. Great videos as always. Thank you!

[@CTRL_SMarcos]

Nice! Thanks for the video.

[@DaviesMediaDesign]

Thanks for watching!

[@ArturJBCosta]

Very Nice! Thumbs up

[@doctormo]

Oh you found a bug in the shape builder clipping feature? Do tell! Ah and the text scaling factor which is a preference, someone asked about it in the chatroom this evening. Fixable, but kinda silly.

[@DaviesMediaDesign]

I have a few bugs for you guys - will report this week when I get a moment (perhaps tomorrow). A dev told me they were aware of the font dialog thing - I have to re-read what they said exactly. PS - re-watch when I opened the document properties dialog. There’s some video editing there on my part, but that issue persists when multiple compositions are open in Inkscape.

[@doctormo]

@@DaviesMediaDesign Were you able to report those bugs?

[@globalren]

You can adjust the unified font scale factor to about 220, and they all fit nice.

[@PrometheusPhamarus]

Yeah, someone may have mentioned it, but if you use the unified font browser, you can fix the browsing font clipping, in the preferences for that, the wheel, you can turn of show font name, and that will fix it, most likely you can read most of the fonts anyway by it´s showcased name. Or increase preview size..as mentioned in some posts here.

[@PrometheusPhamarus]

And what is better now is to actually see the text change in the artwork when you browse select from the browser, with list font and styles, you could Not do that, you had to use the selected font tools in such case.

[@aliencreation8744]

cheers man!

[@avpack9204]

Font browser on my mac is flawless... kudos

[@DaviesMediaDesign]

Not surprised - they have a lot more developer help on Mac/Linux

[@selwynleacock6601]

I would like to know about the video capability in Inkscape.

[@JedHurricane]

The app keeps crashing with the filter gallery lol, I'm on linux though and installed the PPA package

[@patriziopolverenti9021]

Any idea on how I can use inkscape in roland versaworks. When I send a file to versaworks From inkscape, it says corrupted file. I hate computers!!!

[@renatoferreira4939]

👍

[@RenanMayrinck]

sad that they didn't add object rotation to this object properties dialog, would be very helpful.

[@doctormo]

That's available in the transformation dialog.

[@RenanMayrinck]

@@doctormo Oh, that's perfect!

[@gideonsteward93]

Well Gimp, really needs Jesus, they are really taking a long time😩😩
