Inkscape trace bitmap not working mac2/29/2024 And something that is covering up the page border. But right between the top pony and the red rectangle is a portion of a vertical black line. Like in the top area of the top pony, we can see the page border behind the image, so we know that the background is transparent. There are some things about your screenshot that are confusing. Or otherwise, if you could explain the screenshot, so we know what we're looking at? Are both of those ponies from the same trace? Or is one a trace with background, and the other a trace without? If that's the case, then neither one of the trace results contains a background (or iow, background is transparent) otherwise we would not see the red behind it. Then below the top pony, we see 2 ponies against a red background or red rectangle. In your screenshot, what are we seeing there? The top purple pony, is that the result of the work in GIMP? That's what you imported into Inkscape? Is that what happened? You didn't happen to paste it into Inkscape did you? thanks!Ĥa - trace with Remove background checked - results in all white being removedĤb - trace with Remove background not checked - result looked like it had a background, even though it didn't have one to begin with.Ģ - exported to what file format/file type - JPG, GIF, PNG?ģ - If it was exported, or saved in any raster format, it would have had to be imported into Inkscape. "PT is a he" - awesome, just want to be sure. maybe it's a wrong method? How am I supposed to do this? :/ I've seen on YT how to do it, but the woman there had a simple black and white picture of a wing, so. But if you want to know which graphic I used - look at this (n1299468485642).jpg - the white part of eyes were removed in Inkscape - I used in Inkscape only the character with no background. I'd provide the pictures, but I deleted them It was just a practice. With "remove background" off, the picture appeared to have a background around it - even if it had no background before. With "remove background on" it removed everything white from the picture. Well, it's confusing me as well - I removed the background in GIMP - "transparent background". So maybe you did some other kind of trace? It sounds like you might have used the SIOX Foreground technique - to remove the background.but then you said it had no background. And also, what settings did you use for Trace Bitmap. Or if you don't want to show it, just clarify about the background/no background thing. So that's a little confusing.Ĭan you show us the image? A screenshot should be fine. But then you said the image had no background (the background is transparent). You said you wanted to remove the background. It's very stable & really does almost everything Illustrator does, only it's WAY better because it's Open Source & totally FREE.I'm not entirely clear about the situation. Making the above changes took about half an hour & now Inkscape. Just Google "Inkscape Mac GTK themes & toolsets". There are several sites that show you how to do this. I upgraded the butt-ugly Inkscape Windoze GUI theme to a snazzy dark grey GTK theme & tool set, which makes it look & almost like native Mac software. I makes my workflow much smoother & more efficient. This means I can use Inkscape without constantly stumbling around the keyboard. I altered the XQuartz (X11) keyboard commands to use the Command key instead of the Control key. 91 runs almost like a native Mac app-once I made two changes:ġ. Inkscape was always awkward on a Mac because it used X11 & Windoze key commands & the clunky Windoze interface.īut now Inkscape. I've been waiting for the promised Inkscape Mac native version for years, ever since Adobe bought & killed Freehand because Illustrator couldn't compete with it.
