    Thank you so much for all that work. Incredible. I am in the sewing community and many want to use Inkscape to alter or tweak sewing patterns. I will recommend your deep dive, whenever asked for advice in the sewing groups. I found the shape builder so helpful for that. May I add, that shape bulider also works with lines, as long as the lines end outside the path I want to cut. What is neat, it does not take away lenght from the path. The nodes where cut are on top of each other. 🥰🤩

    crazy how it can be frustrating when it's not doing what you want but then you come here and learn how it really works and all of a sudden it makes sense. of course i had random transparency cause i used a mask and i should have used a clip. doi. This is day 2 of learning a vector program and it feels very powerful with a ton of options for design.

    I've worked with Illustrator for years. I can use it to a very advanced level. This video is long buy just by listening and playing around with Inkscape at the same time it is easy to find the new way of doing things I used to do with Illustrator. As I don't use it professionally and it's becoming more expensive with this monthly payments I am moving to Inkscape for good. It is very powerful for a free tool.
