Re: custom objects?

Hi Bernie,
        Could you elaborate a little bit more about what you're doing.  Could 
you give us a link to an example or something?  I can't quite imagine what you 
mean by "custom object" and "tucked in below box, circle, star, etc...."

        With Inkscape, you could click on the Rectangle tool, and draw a 
rectangle.  Ellipse tool and draw a circle or ellipse (or wedge or arc); Star 
tool and draw all kinds of stars, and by using Shift or Alt keys, make some 
really amazing kinds of designs.

        I always suggest Help menu > Tutorials > Basic and Shapes, for 
beginners.  After that, move on to Advanced (and don't worry, it's not really 
advanced - it's an introduction to paths, which I tend to think of as the most 
basic elements of vector drawings).  Those 3 tutorials are how I first started 
with Inkscape.

        Or maybe someone else might be familiar with Visio and already 
understands what you're asking?  But if your answer isn't posted, if you could 
explain a little more what you're doing, it would help me to give a better 
answer.

All best,
brynn

Subject: [Inkscape-user] custom objects?


I'm a newcomer to Inkscape so apologies if this is obvious...  is it
possible to set up a bunch of "custom" objects?  i can do it by putting
them in a separate window and copying them, but it'd be handy to have
them tucked in below box, circle, star, etc.  i was thinking about this
because i just recently did that in visio {i think they're called "stencils"
there}.   thanks

{and kudos:Inkscape is  really quite amazing}
