Now it’s time to adjust the shape so that we are only cutting out the portion of the image that we want cropped. Step 3: Adjust the size and position of the shape relative to the image The goal is to make it so that you can see through the shape well enough to know where it aligns with your image, but also keep it opaque enough that you can still see it against your image. You can reduce the opacity of your object using the O: input field in the bottom-left corner of the screen: The opacity setting is located in the bottom-left corner of the screen.įor this image I have the opacity set at 59, but the value you should use will depend entirely on your image’s composition. For my example I made the shape green because it contrasts nicely against the colors used in the image.
Otherwise you have to guess where they line up. This will make it so that you can see the area of your image that will be cut out with the shape over it. This will make it easier for you to distinguish your shape from the image. Make the shape a color that contrasts with the image.In fact, you can even use text if you’d like! You can use whatever shape you’d like though.
Now we will create the shape you’d like to use to cut out your image with.įor this demonstration I will be using a silhouette version of the Inkscape logo. When asked if you want to link or embed the image, choose embed and leave the rest of the settings as their default.įor this demonstration I will be using the following image: Import the image you’d like to cut by dragging and dropping it onto your canvas or pressing Control + I to import it.Īlthough this example image was created as a vector illustration, it is indeed a rasterized image, meaning it’s made of pixels and is in PNG or JPG format.
