📱 What screen recorder am I using?
I use Camtasia to make all my videos. From my experience it's the best screen recorder available, and I like the built in video editor and cursor effects. Check it out here: techsmith.z6rj...

I am on my journey with Rick Johanson, the captain of the Iron Echo spaceship. On my way to explore the unknown space of Inkscape 🚀🌌
Haha, thanks!! That would be a dream to explore the cosmos.
The same Tutorial I saw on Nick's channel. Its was so complicated. But you made it so Simple 😮
Thanks!! I love Nick’s channel. Tried to do this in my own style.
Bro your tutorials are awesome honestly
brilliant demo - thank you so much.
Many thanks!
I've been struggling with this for months - once again, you've made it simple & straight-forward!
Thank you so much!!
How clever way to create the shape !
こんなふうに、頭の使い方一つで、簡単になるんですね。素晴らしです。ありがとうございます。他のチュートリアルもものすごく楽しんでいます。
Thank you!!!
Great! I have done several celtic designs using Logos By Nick methods but thi sis great for simple designs. Many thanks. Subscribed.
Thank you so much! Logos By Nick is who got me into Inkscape. He's amazing.
so amusing I love your sense of humour! thank you for this, I can see me playing with many interlocking things including letters!
Thanks so much for that! I try to have fun. Interlocking letters would be really cool. Good for logos.
Thanks again , your teaching methods are awesome
Thank you!!
Thank you Rick! I like a lot the way you teach. It's simple, direct and useful.
Thanks!! That's what I'm trying for.
Another cracker Rick. Scottish guy loving the Celtic knots. Great start for me to play around with it. Thank you.
Thank you so much! I take the compliment highly!
Hi..do you know that you are the ultimate master in inkscape. I really love the way you teaching us. Simple just straight to the point...wowww
Thank you so much! Just trying to share what I can. I really appreciate it!
Dude, you saved a lot of my time. There are tons of features are inbuilt into this tool. I just start learning this tool last week and this is what I want to do, and you're right there. I am going to donate to this great Inkscape tool. Please donate if anyone use this to tool to encourage them to add new features. Thank you and the Inkscape tool developers as well. Subscribed and bookmarked U
Since I am new to this tool, I don't know what is the benefit of Object to Path and Stroke to Path. Maybe you might have some video and I will look for it.
No Way Rick!!
Iv been trying very similar designs...
but got very confused with all the clipping, strokes and layers. ( the old school way). And you now you show me.. 🤷♂
Thanks again for all the research and the time you put into figuring this stuff out, so we don't have too!! 👍🐺👍
Excellent! You always seem to find some great hidden gems. 👍
Thanks!! And thanks for the great suggestion on the mosaic video.
Amazing. Thank you
Thank you!
Fantastic, thank you so much for the video. Honestly, I had no idea there was a "mini shape builder" operative in Inkscape 😊
Thanks!! Mini shape builder until the real Shape Builder is built in. That will be awesome.
Nice...Inkscape always improve!
Thanks!!
I can't believe I didn't know about this LPE. Thanks for sharing the trick Rick!
exactly what I was looking for
Nice! There is a new Shape Builder tool in the latest Inkscape. May be an even better solution.
Awesome Rick! You make things simple. Thank you! 😊
Thank you!! Trying to keep it simple.
A fantastic tutorial! Just as usual! Thanks Rick! You inspire me! ✨️
I'm so happy to help. Thank you!!
What you do is amazing! It's like you are a magician!!! lol
Thank you!! Haha. 😂
This may save me some time. I'll see how it works with more complex asymmetrical designs. Thank you,
Thanks- hopefully it will be useful. Sometimes Inkscape glitches the ends when it lines with complex knot designs.
Thank you
Thanks!!
Great tutorila for some lunchtime learning. So cool, I was looking at doing this by hand and then I just thought, hmmm
Thanks Rick 😊
Thank you, Ian!!
Great tutorial. Thanks. Stay inspired!
Thanks!! And, yes!
Always wondered what is the knot effect. Now it's covered ☺️
It's a fun little tool, sitting there in the menu just waiting for us.
Dude you're awesome keep up the good work! You deserve way more subs!
Gracias!!!!!
Muchas Gracias!
great
please make a tutorial on how to design "the Obama hope poster design" using inkscape
Brilliant!👍
Thank you!!
LovelY
Thanks!!
3.17.2023 Did you end up creating a macro to make all the end parallel to their crosspoints? of course you did, haha.
How about now compare the new v1.3 shape builder tool to the knot path effect?
I have been using the sbt, and it is more flexible but I am seeing that you end up cleaning up alot of little path segments that get left behind on the Boolean action.
I can't wait to try out the shapebuildet tool and version 1.3. Are the Inkscape toolbars the same? I think this Knot video will be obsolete- maybe still useful for line art or quick mockups.
Great video easy steps. I followed them all, however I can't get the switcher tool to cooperate. When I select edit by nodes after grouping the switcher tool appears once then disappears. I often cant find it at all but if I do i cant get it to come up if I click elsewhere. Is this a glitch that you know of? Can you do a tutorial on easy ways to create stencils and not have islands that will fall out?
I have a problem. Let's say there are 2 thick lines crossing each other, the crossing path makes 4 sharp corners right? (Let's say you "union" both of those lines together and hit the "node" tool, you will see 4 nodes at the crossing path.) How to make those sharp corners disappear and replace with rounded edges?
Rick, my question would be, how one would keep their original stroke the same width, at the break points, when modifying the ends? I get the measure tool, but I have OCD, and I can't have my work looking wonky, with sharp angles on the ends of my curves! I know I can change the node type to smooth, and I've tried to manage this! The distance between the corner nodes, is not 5 mm for the ends, it's slightly larger! #TIA
Totally understand. I heard there is a new shapebuilder tool coming that will greatly help. We'll be able to clip exact spacing and choose the overlaps visually. Until then Logos by Nick has a Celtic knot tutorial that uses a different method that I think works better for precision. This Knot Path Effect is fine for speed, but doesn't give much control on how the gaps look.
Great tutorial, love your built in humour!
Shape Builder ... ? Still not implemented in latest version. Have seen some prototype modules but none official n the build.
PS. What's the issue using Copy/Paste in preference to Duplicate function?
Thanks so much. Shape Builder rumor I heard from @martinowens. If it goes live we'll be able to do some cool things with it. The Copy/Paste issue comes into play when the knot tool is used on more complicated designs. When I set up a tutorial I test a bunch of different scenarios so I can preemptively find out where people may come into problems following along. The simple 2 rectangles doesn't give Knot any issues, but when I went to 4 rectangles Knot erases too much- more than just the intersections. It's fixed by nudging the shapes one or two clicks with the arrow keys, but that will cause frustrations because it's an Inkscape quirk. Copy paste resolved similar issues, and it allowed for the final project to be made repeatedly during my practice with no issues. Part of me likes finding these quirks and sharing the solutions, but another part of me will be happier when Inkscape matures and irons out these bugs.
4:28 I have been struggling this when I use "duplicate" instead of copy & paste the object. The knot just didn't show. Is this a bug?
Thanks this is helpful, one quick question, did the Knot path effect changed the path to storke? I mean how does the first grouped object that we have changed to path converted to stroke? sorry am new to Inkscape.
Hello . I created a certificate. I will like to make some modifications. The top line I will like to make it round on to of the other line. I hear about bending. Thank on advance.
Hi, Do you know why the dimension cannot be set precisely? When I enters a dimension in the first box and then in the second box, the dimension changes slightly in the first box. I need to precisely determine the dimension for laser engraving. I have plywood 42cm by 29.7 and I want to make such an engraving so as not to cut anything, but for some reason I can't set the size I want, only the program always changes the second size.
Yes, I've noticed this too. I think this Path Effects Knot feature is okay for art and non-precise designs. There is a Celtic Knot tutorial by Logos By Nick that uses a different method that will allow more precision work. I think it's 3 or 4 years old now, but it should be on his channel and I hope it works for your application.
@@IronEchoDesign Thanks, I'll check it out and by the way, it's not normal that in the 21st century we can't precisely set the size in a graphic program ha ha ...
So true!!
Any chance you can do a tutorial on how to do one and two point perspective in Inkscape? I’m a little lost trying to understand how to do this.
Please is this working on letters aswell
Thank you for your videos I have been wanting to get into digital art since I was a kid. Today I tried to do this, and the shift and control key does nothing I don't know if I am doing something wrong or what, but it doesn't make a perfect circle in fact I am not sure what they do when holding both down at the same time lol.
Thanks! You can try just holding shift while you drag open the new circle. Sometimes that's easier, and it will keep things even. Is the circle completely missing? That could be an issue with Fill and Stroke settings.
@@IronEchoDesign Thank you for your reply. I just kept trying different buttons til I got it to work and did some research within in the software. I got it to work now thank you.
Nice!
Can this be applied to Text?
Hi Rick, wondering if there's a trick to apply this effect to font...say overlap A&B
Oh, that's a great idea. I'm going to play with that on my lunch. If there is a way, I'm definitely doing a video on it. Thanks!
@@IronEchoDesign Thank you!
Help! My switcher tool keeps disappearing. And I don't know how to get it back.
I know the feeling. Without being on the screen, try delelecting everything and then clicking back on to see if Path Effects engages and the switcher is back. Or select edit-paths-by-nodes and then deselect it. Hope this helps. I'll try to log on and do Knot tonight if it's still not working for you.
@@IronEchoDesign OMG - thank you for responding! I really didn't think I'd get a response from anyone. I was getting pretty tired when I was trying yesterday. I just tried it again and I don't think I was making the first 2 circles into a path. But I made the last circle into a path so the switcher was just staying on that one. I did get it - but thank you so much for responding! I really appreciate and love the videos. I have learned so much in a short time!
What what? ?? Synchronicity
Hopefully this is good?
Every time you come up with new tips and tricks, thanks a bunch coach
Thanks so much! I'll keep at it!
