SVG effects for Inkscape as a companion for Xara

[ivan louette]

I just had fun with svg effects in Inkscape 0.47 Snapshot, and of course I would share them with anybody ! The best is opening the svg file in Inkscape, copying any object and pasting the style (Ctrl+Shift+V). Or trying to change settings in the Object/Filter Effects window, or in the XML Editor...!

I find Inkscape more and more useful as a companion tool for Xara. That's so easy to share files between the two applications : svg or png from Xtreme to Inkscape and png (or pdf if vectors) from Inkscape to Xtreme.

And I would say that I am in love with svg effects, even... and even because they need some exploration with trials and errors.

Enjoy them !

Now an attempt at non turbulent gel effects. These ones are suitable for unfilled shapes (including unfilled text).

enjoy !

Great effects, Ivan. And all of this is vector!

Knock, knock, Xara developers...
