Hi

Thank you for all the help, however, I think you may have misunderstood me a little. I blame this on the headline I made for my initial post

This is what I had in mind:

Yes, without knowing exactly what you mean by "bend a rectangle" I would have to suggest Pattern Along Path as well. However, you'd have to also be able to bend a simple path at a precise angle. And I'm just not getting what you mean by "bend". Will this be a sharp bend, like a ...

Hi. Simplest way must be to use a guide. Double click at the guide and you can place it in a precise angle. Then move it to the middle point where you wish the point (node) being bend around from. Hi Thank you for replying. I consider myself as pretty much a newbie to Inkscape and therefore I'm afr...

Hi

The headline almost says it all:

How do I make a rectangle which bend at a precise angle ?

It's actually quite useful to have a drawable area that extends beyond the page boundary at times. Consider a design which shows a portion of a circle bleeding off at the edge of the page. With Inkscape you can just draw your circle extending beyond the page boundary, knowing that your export will ...

This is might also be why my question may sound (very) stupid... My question is why the canvas looks the way it does ? - ie. when I open Inkscape I see the rectangl...

Now my next problem is how to cut a part of the arrowshat off in order make it another color. A very small rant: I find th...

Hi Thank you for the warm welcome :D I managed to make an arrow by: The arrow shaft: using the :tool_pen: to make a Benzier Curve and setting the width to 20 under the Stroke Style tab The arrow point: 1. I made a square using the :tool_rectangle: and removed one of nodes :tool_node: by selecting &q...

Hi

First of all I'm almost a total newbie when it comes to using Inkscape, so be gentle...!

I would like to make some arrows which bend to the left or right, but I can't find any tutorials on how to make them.

I have found an image of some arrows I would like to make:
