![]() ![]() Depending on context, some of these options affect a selected object while some take effect only when drawing a new object others can affect either existing or new objects. ![]() Selecting a tool in the Toolbox changes the Tool Controls Bar to show particular options associated with that tool. Located directly under the Commands Bar is the Tool Controls Bar. There are controls for geometric shapes as well as free-form shapes and lines, text, and fills (colors and gradients). It contains the basic set of drawing utilities, particularly those for creating and editing shapes. The Toolbox, consisting of vertically aligned buttons located on the left of the window, is Inkscape's main editing control. Clicking this will reveal any command shortcuts that unable to fit on the bar due to monitor size or resolution settings. There may be an arrow on the right side of the Commands Bar pointing down. Hovering the mouse cursor over each icon will display its functions through tooltips. For example, from the Commands Bar one can open a new or existing document, print, import an image, undo previous commands, zoom, open the dialog to adjust document properties, etc. It also houses other controls for manipulating the document and drawing objects. It contains icons which are shortcuts to commands otherwise accessible from the menus or shortcut keys. The Commands Bar is located at the top of the workspace directly underneath the Menu. The Menu also consists of functions related to drawing. Here you can individually set the Commands Bar Icon Size, the Tool Controls Bar Icon Size and the Main toolbar Icon Size.Īs in most GTK applications, the Inkscape Menu contains the essential functions of any program, those which concern the application itself: New, Open, Save, Export, Quit, etc. The many toolbars that are available in Inkscape can take up a lot of visual space on your screen.
