It is easier to start with a simple line. Like most letters, you will need both straight and curved lines. Chances are, you'll want to create something different, so instead of giving strict and specific location and click instructions, the article will describe what has been done and at Why did you do that? In the case of this example, the article designed a 3-letter logo 'MTE'. To make logo design more comfortable, you should create a 'matrix' of standard lines, similar to what you can see in the screenshot above. Depending on whether you drag the ruler from the top or the left of the page, you will create a horizontal or vertical calibration line. Proper placement of paths can turn them into a rough 'framework', helping to create the final design.Ĭreate benchmarks in InkScape (as in many other applications of the same type) via a hidden shortcut: Hold the left mouse button on one of the two rulers that appear on the edges of the page and drag it to the point where you want it.
By acting as a 'magnet', a click next to these calibration lines changes the position of a point, moving it instantly above the reference line. Using calibration lines can help control the shape of the drawing. And the 'limitations' here are the calibration curves. Sometimes, as in the case of logo design, some restrictions on all this freedom are quite helpful. Inkscape - and most of its tools - let you design anything you want, wherever you need it, and start from anywhere on a blank page. This tool allows you to draw straight lines and Bezier curves. Select the 12th tool from the application toolbar, depicted with a small pencil with a line, which looks like the shadow below. To do this, choose File> Document Properties and change the orientation, right from the Page Size list (s), to horizontal. Most logos are larger than the width, so it's better to set the page horizontally.
Inkscape's default mode for new documents is vertical.
