INKSCAPE CROP IMAGE TUTTO HOW TO
Note in both clipping and masking you can crop the photo using several shapes at once by grouping these shapes, then placing the group on top of the image, then perform the clipping or masking.Ĭropping an Image by Turning It to a Patternīoth clipping and masking don’t allow for much control, for example what if you want to adjust the area you are cropping? It is not convenient to undo and then redo, pattern gives you that power without the hassle of undoing and redoing, and here is how to create a pattern from an image: Any grey color blocks the image depending on how dark that grey is, so darker the grey the more invisible the image becomes.

Contrary to that any black color completely blocks the image, and thus that portion doesn’t appear after you apply the mask.Any white color (whether a fill or a stroke color) permits the underlying image to be completely visible.This method works exactly like clipping, but with more features you can add gradients and blur to modify how you crop an image yet there are a few things to take into account: Use the pen tool to draw a custom shape, this method is often used to remove the background, you draw an outline or a silhouette of your shape, then apply the clipping. Draw a shape on top (it has to be on top in order to clipping to work the way you intended to) of your image, in this step you can draw whatever shape you like, even draw an entirely new shape using the pen tool.įirst write some text, then convert that to a path by selecting it and navigating to Path>Object to Path, then apply the same steps as above.This method uses cookie-cutter style, you place your image ( dough), then a shape on top of it ( cookie-cutter), clip to get your output ( your cookie). Cropping an Image Using Clippingįirst you place your image in the canvas, then create a shape that you’d like your image to be framed accordingly. We will discuss these methods further, but note these methods not only apply for raster graphics, but also for vector graphics as well. Pattern: this gives you more control of what portion you would like to crop.
