[solved] Path along path need more info please

Postby MMx » Thu Jul 10, 2008 5:52 am

Hi
I found this file live-path-effects-pathalongpath.svg in the example folder C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\examples of inkscape, the instruction is too brief, would anyone please give me a more detail guide on how to put the fish skeleton on a path?
To be specific, i have the following problem
1.Ctrl+c to copy the fish, but i can't paste it on the path.
2.when i click edit on canvas on path effects panel, a fish is show on the top left corner with green lines, why at the corner to save tweaking what origin parameter?
Please help. :|

I'll admit that using live path effects is not too intuitive.

You should find all the detail you need to know on this page - http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL ... s-BendTool
