creating identical shapes

Postby glasslady » Mon Feb 02, 2015 6:23 am

Is there a way to designate copies of a shape to be modified the same way as the original form, and if so how is it done?

Hi.

Click on the word "cloning" in Lazurs post, it's actually a link to the cloning section in "The Manual"!

I'm also covering clones at the moment in my long-running series of Inkscape tutorial articles: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11981

Cloning starts in part 28.
