Live Path Effects
Spiro Live
Extended video: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFakiI5f0-Y>
Based in Spiro Live Path Effect, now show result while drawing.
- Nodes cusp (SHIFT) and Spiro.
- Handle append path on cusp and Spiro mode whith helper preview path.
BSpline
Extended video <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwV0DHvA-OE>
Pen & Node mode
Use BSpline Live Effect while creating and editing paths.
- Pen and Pencil use
- Modes cusp(SHIFT) and BSpline while drawing.
- Handle append parhs with preview helper path.
- Handle weight of bspline (node tool) with handle movement. SHIFT key required.
- Handle custom weight snaps with CTRL
Live Path Effect mode
The options in the Live effect dialog give you control on bspline paths.
- Set to Default weight (0.3334 time of his curve segment).
- Make cusp nodes.
- Numeric input for weight.
- Steps with CONTROL snaps in node/handle editing.
- Ignore cusp nodes, affect to all other widgets changes and, for example, retain cusp nodes when you change the power.
- Change only selected nodes, affect to all other widgets changes.
- Show a helper path whith the final shape and the generated new nodes.
Fillet/Chamfer
Extended video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJKzGhJULfc
- Three types: fillet, inverse fillet and chamfer.
- Fillet/Chamfer knots are green diamonds
- Change Fillet/Chamfer types: Ctrl+click green knot
- Fillet/Chamfer knot dialog: Shift+click green knot
- Handle units.
- Methods Auto,Force Arcs or Force Bezier. Auto use arcs for straight lines and bezier for curves.
- Numeric radius input.
- Optional helper path with knot direction
- Two kind of radius, fixed and flexible.
- Optional Knot distance to node instead radius
- Ignore 0 radius knots.
- Change only selected nodes.
- Chamfer subdivisions input. -double-chamfer, triple chamfer....-
- Hide Knots, some times useful. ex: 0 radius knot.
- Type change buttons
Roughen
Extended video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=130Dbt0juvY
This filter is a semi-clone of two extensions, ("add nodes" and "jitter nodes") + handle units.
The parameters are similar to both extensions + a global randomizer.
- Apply to paths, shapes and groups.
- Apply to clip and masks -if are vectors-
Simplify
Extended video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaWujN_iTSk
Send the simplify command to a non-destructive live path effect.
- Use on paths, shapes and groups of them.
- Apply to clip and masks -if are vectors-
- User can change modify the threshold -preferences dialog- used by a numeric parameter.
- Apply Simplify on stack.
Perspective/Envelope
Extended video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjKGatyxTZ8
Apply both deformations by 4 points.
- Two modes, perspective and envelope.
- Apply on paths, shapes and groups.
- Apply on vector clips and mask
Lattice Deformation 2
Extended video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlK9L88_tWE
Add deformations by a mesh.
- Apply to paths, shapes and groups.
- Apply to vector clips and mask
Show Handles
Extended video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9ul_PR9XYo
A LPE version of Show Handles extension.
- Work on paths, shapes and groups.
- Work on clones
- Node and Handle shapes resizeables
- If not a clone, is a destructive LPE, dont save styles, work on a copy!
