  • In this video I show you from start to finish oh how to use a process with converting your image into a bitmap then into a SVG for a much better tracing right in Lightburn. I provide 3 different examples so show the versatility of this process. This is one option for your tool box for sure.
    Jeff Fisher UA-cam video on where I got the info to apply this technique! Thank you for posting this Jeff!

    Very well done video! H/As a former Air Force instructor, I appreciate you paying attention to the concept of "Tell them what you're going to tell them, tell them, then summarize what you've told them." You repeated the process several times and showed the results with photos to reinforce the learning of the concept. Very well done, excellent!

      Thank you for your comments, I know some people don’t like the repetition but that’s How it sinks in for me so I gravitate to that style of teaching.

    Great video! I really liked that you recapped your steps after each section. Really helped my ADD, lol.

    I've been doing it this way for about 2 years Robert, but with one slight difference. I find that sliding the Enhance Amount all the way up to 1500, or the top of the scale, and then just a little radius adjustment makes for an incredible trace. I haven't done a video on it because older computers tend to lock up when processing the image in such detail. *Great tutorial though!*

      Hey Rich , thanks for the tip, I will have to give that a try for sure. Anything that helps these marginal pics makes it easier.

    Great video. Tracing has usually been a PIA for me. This process has greatly improved my results. I also saw Jeff's video and it has been a game changer for tracing. Thanks!

    very informative and timely to a project I am working on. I'm working with both lightburn and inkscape . This could really help reduce the number of back and forth between the two tools. Any insight into the trace features capabilities in lightburn vs inkscape? I'm wanting to go from landscape photos to some nice looking vector-lasered art.

    Great video. What about burning as greyscale. I know it would take ages, but would you still process the photo as you did for the trace? I'm still learning. Thanks

    • @computercreationz
      @computercreationz  3 місяці тому +1

      Yes that what I do as well this process is not to do a pic but to convert a pic to a svg. Very different process. It’s confusing I know! Thank for watching
