I have no idea what making a path is but I did get pretty far on this, thank you!! After I click object to path, I don’t have the un-group at the top like you do. I right clicked and un-grouped that way so I thought I did it right. Then I went on following your steps. In the end with the break apart, I’m having trouble. I can’t get it to separate so I’m guessing I didn’t do the first path steps right in the first place. :/ I keep rewatching your video and trying over and over haha I’ll get it I’m sure! Thank you so such an awesome video! If I knew anything about Inkscape I’m sure I’d have had it the first go haha

Thank you for this tutorial! I am new to Inkscape and am working on a Mac. Everything about this tutorial worked for me up until the "break apart path" near the end. Like your video, when I break apart, the negative/white spaces in the O and R go away, but when I then select the text and use "path combine" the white spaces do not re-appear like they did in your video. Any idea why or what I might be doing wrong? Thanks!

It is entirely possible you didn't select all of the spaces. Feel free to message me and we can work through it if you haven't already shootingstarsvg@gmail.com

On Dafont it says that the Keep on truckin font is free for personal use. Can I use it to make svgs in my Etsy shop? or does it have to be a commercial use one? Do you have any videos covering that kind of stuff? Like what kinds of fonts we can use etc. Thank you:)

@ShootingStarSVG

You would have to buy the license (which I have somewhere) and be mindful of what fonts you're utilizing. I have some videos coming out on fonts soon

I have a question... at the end when you d, o "path- break apart" and then select your one line of text/letters that you want to combine what if the inner nodes don't show up in a particular letter (like the nodes in the inside of the "p" )? How do you fix that ?

@ShootingStarSVG

Interesting question. It depends on what kind of font you're working with. Without seeing the file I would be at a loss :( Anyway you could postup in the FB group so we can help?

How did you get your O back to the way it looked originally? I can’t figure out how to make my letters with middles stay that way after I break apart the part.

I am trying to save my image and upload it to my designer program but it is telling me that "SVG files cannot contain text layers." I can group the image in inkscape but if I go to path and try to make a union or combine it makes the full image one color instead of keeping the separate colors I selected. Is there a way to make it a path without losing my colors? I hope I am explaining that right! Thank you!

@ShootingStarSVG

Жыл бұрын

Make sure your text is on different lines and you are converting it to path after completion You may also have a hidden text box somewhere

could you please tell me if I forget to lock the aspect ratio and at the end of making a design it comes into my mind, is there a way to fix it? i am doing that too often and it wastes alot of my time to remake a design entirely just because i forgot to lock the aspect ratio

@ShootingStarSVG

Жыл бұрын

Sadly no, you have to be pretty cognizant about locking the ratio. Unless you undo everything. Muscle memory. I generally keep mine on always because I find myself wanting it more than not wanting it if that makes sense

I worked through this tutorial with success....but when I upload my svg to Cricut Design Space, it doesn't transfer all letters with color. For example, the inside of the Ps in Happy are the color of the text and the Ps are while with an outline to cut. This happened twice with two svgs, different letters each time. I don't see a way to upload a screenshot of what it looks like. Please advice as to what I could've missed.
