Inkstitch - Using difference makes all the difference.

[@elfpimp1]

This is great. I used this feature to keep a name tag on a shirt from being too thick on a heat map. Saved me bobbin thread too..

Thank you

[@elementgypsy]

Thanks again. I did it! I realized I needed to hold shift while selecting difference for it to work.

[@LowTechLinux]

Excellent 👍☺️

[@elementgypsy]

Thank you! Can't wait to try it.

I came back to watch... I'm making a new thing and forgot how to do it! My memory is getting worse with age. I hope if I spend more time with inkscape, I will use the functions more and remember. I really like inkscape as a program. Dee

Interesting, this is good for text on top of a back ground or text inside a border. :)

What’s the advantage to using a difference over an exclusion?

[@LowTechLinux]

Difference removes the top layer shape from the object selected below it. Exclusion removes the intersection area of two shapes and merges the remaining shapes into one object.

Is there a way to do this with a Satin Stitch? I've created letting using Zig Zag to Satin Stitch, but I have it overlapping letting that has a fill colour and Satin Stitch overtop. I'd like to not fill under the bottom later anywhere that my top layered Satin Stitch is, but because it's not a shape, I can't seem to get it to work. Thanks so much for your content, I've learned so much!
