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

Four types: fillet, inverse fillet, chamfer and double 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 ones.
Numeric radious input.
Optional helper whith knot direction
Two kind of radious, fixed and flexible.
Optional Knot distance to his nodes instead radious
Ignore 0 radious knots, to change only modified knots. 0 radious at start.
Change only selected nodes.
Hide Knots, some times useful. 0 redious 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.

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!
