Thank you ^_^ Editing and synchronyzing the voice takes the most time really :) Well, after research. You remind me that I should also clean up the automatic closed captions, there are bound to be mistakes there.
Thank you ^_^ Closed captions are subtitles so if you watch without them, you don't see them. But I've looked, UA-cam actually finds this voice clear as well and I only have to edit a few small things. It's a funny thing to edit subtitles generated from a generated speech ;)
Hiya, excellent videos (as usual). I'm struggling with the beginning step. I'm just practising on the TATB Agnes pattern. How do I "close the path" with the nodes? I think I have lots of different lines. I don't have 4 nodes showing like on your image. Can you help please?
Hi, what is TATB? If you pattern shape isn't whole, there can be different scenarios. If there are like 20 different paths, you could try join them like shown here: ua-cam.com/video/9Cx8GcDm4Bg/v-deo.html There are also patterns where every dash is separate and also may be a thin closed shape and not like a line or a curve, then joining nodes won't work. In general, unless the pattern has whole shapes or
@@Plookiss Ah, I don't have experience with her patterns so don't know how editable they are. If you try the ones I use, I usually use free ones, you'll probably see the difference.
Hi Marta, thank you so much for the video! I can't seem to get this to work. I've figured out how to make my rectangle and I've tried using all your methods but none of them work. What is the secret? :)
I'm thinking my problem is that it's probably not a closed path. Using inkscape is way harder than altering pattern pieces by paper. So close to giving up...but I LOVE my projector.
First look if that's really a path and not a group. In the bottom of the screen, there is a Status Bar that shows helpful messages (if it's not there, View>Show/Hide>Statusbar). If you select a pattern piece it will tell you if it's group or path or something else. If it's a group, Ungroup it (Object>Ungroup), may need several times until it won't tell you there are groups anymore. It can be a path in pieces of various types, yes. All patterns are made differently and I have videos for tracing if they are raster images, or joining pieced paths together. I guess I should make a separate video about diagnostics, what to do with what kind of a pattern. I'd recommend trying this with the pattern I use first, it's free. Then you'd know it's not the pattern fault and could look into the possible user errors. I assembled Keywest Tank with PDFStitcher, removed all size layers exccept one, brought it to Inkscape, selected all and ungrouped several times until there were no more groups. Then click at the front bodice in several places until you see a selection going around the whole pattern piece. I'd move it to the side with Shift arrow so it won't try to focus on another path when you click again to grab and pull it. After that you can click on the color in the bottom to color the shape, and that's all the preliminary work this tutorial needs for this particular pattern.
Hi Marta! Again you did a marvelous job! I really apreciate all the work you put into it. I would like to know if you know a method to import 1 size of a A0 or projector pattern into inkscape to make the adjustments. Or import a projectorfile keeping a the layers so I could easily remove the ones I don't need. Ik have GIMP, scribus foxit. Can't figure out how or if it is possible at all. Thank you!
Thank you ^_^ There is a great way to do just that currently! You'd need the latest version of PDFStitcher to save the file with only the layer or layers needed, also can color the lines and change the thickness there. Then import the result into Inkscape. That's how I got the file I'm working with in this tutorial, only I used a letter file and combined it in PDFStitcher first (and removed the page numbers in Inkscape). PDFStitcher is here: github.com/cfcurtis/pdfstitcher#download-the-latest-release
I'm not sure I understand? You open the file with a pattern. If it's A0 and you aren't stitching it, choose "layers only". Branalyn made a new tutorial here: ua-cam.com/video/OyGQQi4WRRU/v-deo.html I'll make my own too but a bit later.

Thanks so much for doing this. You spent so much time writing it all out and numbering. I appreciate all your hard work and effort!!

hi Marta is it possible that one can make a french curvelinial and a regular ruler in mm in inscape for pattern construction
