Anyone who would like to learn the Inkscape vector graphic editor, whether for profit or fun, would be a perfect candidate for this course.
While other courses teach art using the Inkscape editor, this course teaches the Inkscape editor in and of itself. We will demo all the tools, learn how they function independently, and in conjunction with other tools, bars, and panels.
We will also customize the Inkscape page, learn to access, adjust and collapse frequently used panels, take a look at guidelines, grids, and the canvas itself.
We will discuss the color palette, examine each of the command bar icons, as we basically walk through the entire interface tool by tool and bar by bar.
