Hi #Inkscape-fans! I finally found a way to do object-#shadows!

Ctrl-D to duplicate the object, make the color a bit darker.

N and select the nodes where the endpoints of your shadow should be.

Shift-B to „Break path at selected nodes“ (🤔)

Ctrl-Shift-K to „Break apart“ (🤷‍♀️)

S and Del to select and delete the part that isn't gonna be shadow.

N to go back to node view, B to draw the inner edge of the shadow.

It's more cumbersome than what I was doing in #AdobeIllustrator but it works!

@jfml

You can also achieve this by duplicating the layer

CTRL + D

Darkening that copy

Then creating another object that cuts away the portion you don't want

Then selecting both and using the Path, Difference operation

CTRL + -

Which will leave only the shaded part.

Just another option:)

Abandoned

@jfml

You may also like the shape builder in 1.3 too. Which comes out next week in it's stable form.

But let me know what the workflow was in Illustrator. Always interested to know alts in case it's possible to program Inkscape with them.

Wow. I tried to #center #images on my #Wordpress #blog with #CSS for ages. Could never do it „align-center“ from back in the day didn't work, looked online, never found anything.

Now, while doing something else it seems like:

display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;

does the trick!

No idea why, obviously, as always +__+

seb :javascript:

@jfml
display: flex;
justify-content: center

gang here

@jfml It's because of the difference between elements that use the `block` and `inline` boxes. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/do

`text-align: center;` means it centres the content of elements with an inline type - the text *inside* the p, for example. Not the p itself.

When you want to centre "an HTML element" you likely want to centre *the element* and not *its content*. Which means it needs to be block level, and then you can use margins.

Émeric Owczarz

@jfml we even have the "margin-inline" class now, whitch results in less code writing :
margin-inline: auto;
👍

So #Suzume, #MakotoShinkai's new #anime is looking veeerrry
#pretty again, has a nice #fantasy vibe and a #longhaired #PrettyBoy sidekick. Story kinda drags after the first third.

But also! So far there's no cringy boob-nonsense #fanservice, no unconsensual groping or other disgusting shite that made it impossible to recommend lots of his stuff before! So good on you, dude, *super* low bar to cross but you did it (so far).

jfml ✨ Jonas Laugs

Well *of course*.

Just realized that #Suzume is a school girl (so underage?) and love interest is a university student (so an adult). It's #anime so of course.

Other then that I liked it a lot! It does have it's lengths but overall it's a really good story and it's obviously super pretty so …

Good #monday, #Fediverse!

It's not that #hot here today (it was was yesterday, though …) but I still think this old piece of mine is kinda fitting for #summer.

Have a nice (#IceCube in your) #IceTea or #IcedLatte and enjoy your day like these #teabags (o no, that sounds like an insult!) do ^__^

Oh, this is apparently available on my #Inprnt:

What *really* messes me up is whatever #Krita is doing when you open or save documents.

It's just super weird.

E.g. I think (as apposed to 99% of all other programs) when you save an existing file they don't show you the directory where you opened the file from but where you saved your last file? At least I think that's what it is. Whatever they do it means that files end up being saved to random locations (because I'm not paying attention) and I have no idea where they are.

😭

Gremriel

@jfml I'm not sure what you mean. When you open an existing file, modify it, and then hit the save icon, it saves at the location from where you opened it.

You not paying attention (by your own admission) is hardly Krita's fault.

jfml ✨ Jonas Laugs

Krita's doing it again! Opened a file from Desktop. Worked on it, saved it. Opened another file from somewhere else, worked on it, hit Save As … Krita opens the file browser at the desktop not where I opened the second file +___+

Wer mal lokalen #Qualitatsjornalismus von der #BBC lesen will, look no further than "Pink Door Woman" (of #Edinburgh), eine Saga in vielen Artikeln:

bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-edinb

(Die Journalistin is bestimmt mit der befreundet oder so ^__^ Ich find's total gut, in anderen Artikeln wird auch ihre Inneneinrichtung gezeigt, die kann sich auch sehen lassen.)

@jfml I prefer the night version 😊

_maleficentgirl

@jfml
Gives me a strong "Avatar: The Last Airbender"-feeling
(the good animated series! NOT the crappy movie!) :ablobcatheartsqueeze:

@jfml
I think I prefer the night version but I can't really decide, they're both really good

Ooohhh, I just *love* it when you check out some cool #artist's* #portfolio / #website and they're not (only) on #Insta or #Facebook but on #Mastodon as well!

:blobfoxheart:

It almost feels like back in the #Tumblr days when you could just subscribe to everybody via #rss!

Hello #friends, old and new! Hope this day is treating you good.

Here, have a tiny #present from a normal-sized person or a normal-sized present from a #giant, whatever you prefer ^__^

This is a super old one (from 2010!) for my friend B, who is not on the #fediverse, unfortunately.

Ugh, after months and months of working with #Inkscape exclusively my muscle memory has completely forgotten #Illustrator shortcuts +__+

Thinking of rebinding Illustrator keyboard shortcuts to the ones from Inkscape, what could possibly go wrong! ^__^

@jfml that seems like a really good idea to me honestly!!

Here's a super old #illustration from my #diploma which I've been using as a #DesktopBackground and #lockscreen for forever.

It's still one of my favourite #projects even though it's kinda edgy, being heavily inspired by McCarthy's The Road, 28 Days Later etc. But it has it's quiet, beautiful moments.

Grade 500€ für ein #Zugticket nächsten Feitag von HH nach Leipzig und zurück gezahlt.

Ich frage mich echt, wieso Leute lieber #Auto fahren oder #fliegen als mit der #Bahn zu fahren, es ist mir wirklich ein unerklärliches Rätsel ...

#Verkehrswende geht anders, denke ich.
