I do not know and I would love some help please. Maybe it is to do with 1.0 and something or maybe I am just being silly.

I’m trying to move to Inkscape, but I haven’t found a solution to this problem. I use the path eraser tool a lot in Adobe Illustrator.

Here is a video of me and the intersection problem. Step 2: Then, use the Path Eraser Tool on the section of the path I’d like to erase (shown in pink) The result: The path is now broken into two separate paths. It must be the most simplest thing but I just can't seem to do it. I sit here and I get mad at it and I keep trying again and again. I try to do that and it keeps saying "No paths te break apart are selected" or similar. The photo shows a bitmap image, on top of are basic circle shapes made with inkscape. I do find that the biggest shape is on top so you have to set that shape to the bottom.
Inkscape eraser how to#
In Ai I could have done it with the shape builder tool but in Inkscape I have no idea how to do it. SlySludge Yeah, to me, I overcame this by ungrouping and also getting 3 duplicates so you would have to delete one. His shape, the middle goes white, mine stays the same, he then does the Break Apart thing and now he has two red shapes. 5 I have to delete an unwanted part of a circle object (I marked it with a blue arrow). He adds a stroke, simple right? I can do that too. I have been successful at times but then here comes the next part. Instead of the eraser, well be using the Pen tool to draw a line similar to the previous.

First thing is first, I was watching a tutorial by Logos By Nick here: He does this, put the circles in a middle and then intersects them for a shield. The best way to erase in Inkscape is to use boolean path operations.
For versions < 0.91 Go to Filters -> Transparency Utlities -> Light Eraser For version 0.I used the following method / filter in Inkscape. For instance, i wanted to remove white background of an image to make it transparent. Right, I am new here, just found out about Inkscape, was looking to make logos and getting Affinity Designer but came here to Inkscape first since I believe it will be a better software. There are some filters available in Inkscape which can speed up complicated tasks.
