![]() ![]() ![]() This becomes obvious if you exaggerate the line's thickness. Simply put: the thicker the line, the more it consumes real estate inside the rectangle. If you study how Inkscape adds a stroke you'll see immediately that this tool won't satisfy everyone. ![]() The notion of using several layers to achieve an effect in vector art isn't new. And if the logo sits on top of the central area, the odd "ball" effect won't be visible. The black underneath can have its own unique pattern. More adjustments could be made if the bottom rectangle were black and the two top rectangles only contained the purple flares. ![]() However, if you're using a shape that doesn't permit such a flip, the next solution is to move the gradient line itself in the duplicated rectangle into opposite corners. Click the Gradient tool on the top-most rectangle and give it a 50% transparency via the Fill and Stroke dialogue.Įssentially I created a square (for ease of demonstration) and flipped the object to the left 90 degrees. Duplicate said rectangle (select item, Ctrl+D).Ģ. What you *could* try is the following (essentially what druban suggested):ġ. If you are thinking of having a third "handle" that would be entirely independent of the other two, of course this would be quite different, not an ellipse, certainly not a quadratic (2nd degree), and something to give the SVG developers a bit of a nightmare. You could describe the ellipse by establishing another angle (other than 90) for the second arm, but it would still be an ellipse, just with a needlessly more complicated calculation. The reason for having two arms is to describe the shape of the ellipse, in other words, the length of the short arm specifies the minor axis, the other arm the major axis. in effect, you only have one set of nodes that describe colour, although they are, for convenience, duplicated on each arm. the same gradient nodes are on each axis of the radial gradients. The bad thing is that the resulting colors depends on the layer order.Brynn wrote:What would happen if we could take a radial gradient, and move one of the handles to some angle besides 90 degrees to the other? That would be Awesome!Īlthough it sounds like it might be something other than what we have now, in fact it would be no different. I almost succeeded for my illustration thanks to the interpolation, in order to decrease saturation, I'm mixing more and more almost transparent layers. In a generalization of this, you should have the color you get by intersecting the 4 dimension-space by a 2D surface One example of what i would like to get is the filling you have in the different kind of "color picker", but maybe even more flexible: colors are defined with 3 independent parameter+ transparency, in a color picker you usually set transparency to 1, and intercepted the 3 dimensionnal space remaining by a plane (R remain constant, saturation remain constant.). With an orthoradial gradient between the corresponding stop points of the x and y axis. Druban wrote:I see what you are thinking of - x-axis one set of colors and y-axis one set of colors, but then what about along the line at a 45 degree angle? How would the color of a point on that line be determined? ![]()
