Inkscape指南
ne of Inkscape's main priorities is ease of use. This is visible on the Main Window as every bar's button (icon), numeric value and unit of measure boxes will produce
tooltip
(help) messages. The
Menu bar
is
title
, not button, based so when using these titled edits Inkscape still provides updated assistance. For a quick example, click the Menu's bar
‣
F
ile
option, then mouseover 🖰 one of the
‣
F
ile
options and there will be two feedback features.
(1)
The mouseover of one of the drop down menu items will highlight (background color) the item.
(2)
The Statusbar (bottom center) will provide an updated
Notificaton
message describing the highlighted Menu bar item.

::简单易用是Inkscape的主要优先事项之一.在主窗口上可以看到,因为每个的按 (图标),数值和单位测量框都会产生工具提示 (帮助) 消息.菜单是标题,而不是按,因此在使用这些标题编辑时,Inkscape仍然提供更新的帮助.为了快速举例,点击菜单的文件选项,然后鼠标转移文件选项中的一个,将有两个反功能. (1) 下拉菜单项之一的鼠标转移将突出显示 (背景颜色) 项. (2) 状态 (底部中心) 将提供更新的通知消息,描述突出显示的菜单项.[1]
The Inkscape default window is laid out with four bars at the top, two on the left, two on the right and three at the bottom. You can create and edit graphics using various displays, such as bars, dialogs, numeric value and unit of measure boxes. You can also adapt the bars and dialog displays to the way you draw, by customizing the Main Window view with style settings. The window layout of an application is also referred to as the Graphical User Interface (GUI).

Interface basics
::接口基础知识
The Inkscape interface is based on the
GNOME Human Interface Guidelines (HIG)
standard. The HIG uses visual indicators, like background and cursor (pointer) changes. It also provides feedback with pop-ups, tooltip and notification messages for any interface buttons, numeric value and units of measure boxes, on canvas editing icons, bounding boxes, guides, etc. and Menu bar 'titled' commands.
[3]
::墨景界面基于GNOME人机界面准则 (HIG) 标准.HIG使用视觉指标,如背景和光标 (指针) 变化.它还提供弹出窗口,工具提示和任何界面按的通知消息,数值和测量方框的单位,在画布编辑图标,边界方框,指南等,以及菜单"标题"命令的反. [1]
Here are some examples of Inkscapes HIG features:
::以下是Inkscapes HIG功能的一些例子:
-
Mouseover 🖰 the cursor on top of any interface button, numeric-value or unit of measure box and the interface will display a pop-up (feedback) description of the button and boxes. And if the button or box is available for execution, the interface will highlight the button/box with a light blue visual indicator (background).
::鼠标转移 任何接口按,数值或测量单位框的顶部的光标,接口将显示按和框的弹出 (反) 描述.如果按或框可用于执行,接口将以浅蓝色视觉指示器 (背景) 突出显示按/框. -
When a button or numerical-value box foreground is grayed out, this indicates that the button/box cannot be used under the current canvas selection/status, but will still display a pop-up message.
::当按或数字值框前景灰色时,这表明按/框不能在当前画布选择/状态下使用,但仍将显示弹出消息. -
Edit/Tool buttons that are currently enabled will have blue square/rectangle backgrounds.
::现在启用的编辑/工具按将具有蓝色的方形/矩形背景. -
Mouseover 🖰 on top of any on canvas editing icons (i.e., nodes, handles, segments, etc.) and the editing icon will change colors and generate a tooltip message in the Statusbar's Notification area.
::鼠标转移在任何画布上的编辑图标 (即节点,手柄,段等) 上,编辑图标将改变颜色并在状态的通知区域生成工具提示消息. -
When Snap Controls are enabled, during the 'snap to' action an on-canvas pop-up messages will briefly display feedback on how the snap will be placed (example, Bounding Box Corner to Bounding Box Corner)
::当启用快速控制时,在"快速到"动作期间,在画布上的弹出消息将简短地显示如何放置快速的反 (例如,将框角与框角相结合) -
Within the Statusbar there is a
Notification Area

Menu bar
::菜单

The very top bar of the Inkscape interface is the
Menu bar
, the Menu contains the basic
F
ile,
E
dit and
H
elp functions like many other programs. A fairly new feature worth noting is the
‣
F
ile ‣‣Import Clip Art...
window which allows for the searching and importing of files from the Open Clip Art library, for this to work you need to be connected to the internet. The remainder of the Menu bar's commands are related to working with graphic design.
::墨景界面的顶部是菜单,菜单包含基本的文件,编辑和帮助功能,像许多其他程序一样.值得注意的一项相当新的功能是"文件" "导入剪辑艺术"...窗口,它允许从开放剪辑艺术库搜索和导入文件,为了实现这一点,您需要连接到互联网.菜单的其余命令与图形设计工作有关.

Most commands are available directly from the keyboard, by either using
access keys
(underlined letter) or keyboard
shortcuts
. These two keyboard methods are available features within Inkscape. Using the
‣
F
ile
drop down menu as an example, access keys for commands under the
‣
F
ile
menu are available by first using
Alt
+
F
(drop down menu is displayed), then a given access key. Example, to access the
‣
F
ile ‣‣
D
ocument Properties
command use the following keyboard entries of
Alt
+
F
,
D
, you can also use the assigned keyboard shortcut of
⇧ Shift
+
Ctrl
+
D
. Frequently used menu items are assigned keyboard shortcuts, this amounts to over 60% (not including Filter
s
, Exte
n
sions and
H
elp) of Inkscape's Menu bar commands having keyboard shortcuts.
[4]
::大多数命令可以直接从键盘中使用,使用访问键 (划线字母) 或键盘快捷键.这两种键盘方法是Inkscape中可用的功能.使用文件下拉菜单作为例子,文件菜单下的命令的访问键可以首先使用Alt+F (显示下拉菜单),然后使用给定的访问键.例如,访问文件文件文件属性命令使用以下键盘输入Alt+F,D,您也可以使用分配的键盘快捷键Shift+Ctrl+D.经常使用的菜单项目被分配键盘快捷键,这相当于超过60% (不包括过器,扩展和帮助) 的Inkscape菜单命令条带有键盘快捷键.[4]
Additionally, in the Menu bar - drop down graphic above, the Document Properties... Shift+Ctrl+D item is highlighted. When a Menu bar item has a
mouseover
applied the Statusbar's Notification display will update with a live message. Here is the notification message for the mouseover of
D
ocument Properties
:
::此外,在上面的菜单 - 下拉图中,文件属性... 转移+Ctrl+D项被突出显示.当菜单项有鼠标转移应用时,状态的通知显示将更新一个实时消息. 这里是文件属性的鼠标转移的通知消息:

Commands bar
::命令
The
Commands bar
has buttons of frequently used edits such as file options, zoom levels, undo, copy, group, etc. Related edits are grouped along the bar and are separated by a vertical line |. A great example of this is the grouping of the highly used Zoom levels.
::命令有经常使用的编辑按,如文件选项,放大级别,撤消,复制,组等.相关的编辑沿着进行分组,并用垂直线隔开. 这是一个很好的例子是高度使用的放大级别的分组.

Toolbox and Tool Controls bars
::工具箱和工具控制条


The third bar down is the
Tool Controls bar
, which
changes
depending upon the currently enabled tool in the Toolbox bar. The
Toolbox bar
is located on the left side of the user interface. In the example graphic the Tool Controls bar edits are complementary to the Toolbox bar's Selector Tool.
::第三个下面的是工具控制,它取决于工具箱中当前启用的工具而变化.工具箱位于用户界面的左侧.在图示中,工具控制的编辑与工具箱的选择器工具相辅相成.
The Tool Controls bar edit buttons (icons) and numeric-value boxes are editors under the Selector Tool properties and are grouped into five sections, each separated with vertical lines |. Here is a summary of the groupings starting with the left grouping first:

The amount of interface bar button pop-up messages support in Inkscape is very impressive, as it is hard to find a button, numeric-value and unit of measure boxes that do not generate pop-up messages on mouseovers 🖰. The Tool Controls bar example graphic shows a pop-up message, that is generated (feedback) when a mouseover 🖰 is above the Selector's Tool Controls bar open lock button.
::接口按弹出消息支持量在Inkscape非常令人印象深刻,因为很难找到按,数值和单位测量框,不会在鼠标转移时生成弹出消息. 工具控制示例图显示一个弹出消息,当鼠标转移位于Selector的工具控制开锁按上方时,会产生 (反).
Controls bar value boxes
::控制条数值框
To access the Tool Controls bar numeric-value boxes and units of measure box:
::访问工具控制条数值框和测量单位框:
-
-
Click inside the numeric-value boxes
::点击数字值框中的值 -
Click the drop down button in the unit of measure box
::在测量单位框中点击下拉按
-
Click inside the numeric-value boxes
There are also Controls bar shortcuts that not only make the navigation of the varying boxes quicker, but will likely lead to a great habit of using more precise settings when creating detail oriented files. While svg editors compliment bitmap editors, svg editors can be seen as another domain for artwork. SVG relies heavily on mathematics and a part of Inkscape's ease of use gateway to its internal mathematics are via these boxes. While the shortcuts below may seem cumbersome at first, over time they will ultimately lead to enhanced graphic creations through ease of use and a 'best practice' of zeroing in on Inkscape's rich mathematics.
::控制的快捷键不仅使不同框的导航更快,而且可能会导致在创建面向细节的文件时使用更精确的设置的好习惯.虽然svg编辑器赞美位图编辑器,但svg编辑器可以被视为艺术品的另一个领域.SVG严重依赖数学,Inkscape内部数学的易用网关的一部分是通过这些框.虽然下面的快捷键最初可能看起来很麻烦,但随着时间的推移,它们最终会通过易用和对Inkscape丰富的数学进行零化的'最佳实践'来提高图形.

The currently enabled Toolbox tool will have a blue colored squared backdrop. The Tool Controls bar also places a blue colored squared backdrop to any enabled edits. In the Tool Controls graphic there is an example of four edit features grouped together. The first button is not enabled so there is no blue background on the button, but it is available since it is not grayed out. The next three edits are enabled: and have blue color backgrounds. For new (rookie) graphic designers over looking these settings can lead to re-editing of objects.
::目前启用的工具箱工具将有一个蓝色的方形背景. 工具控制也将蓝色的方形背景放置在任何启用的编辑中. 在工具控制图中,有四个编辑功能组合在一起的例子. 第一个按没有启用,所以按上没有蓝色的背景,但它是可用的,因为它没有灰色化. 下一个三个编辑是启用:并且具有蓝色的背景. 对于新手 (新手) 图形设计师来说,过多查看这些设置可能导致对象的重新编辑.
Selector tool rate of use
::选择器工具使用率
The Selector Tool is the most used tool in Inkscape. So to improve the ease of use for this tool it has three shortcuts, and is one of the two tools that has a 'toggle' feature. One of the three Selector Tool shortcuts is the
Spacebar
, which toggles the activation of the Selector Tool. When using any other tool, press the
Spacebar
to switch to the Selector Tool, then perform the Selector Tool-based edit(s). Once the Selector Tool edit(s) are completed press the
Spacebar
again to return (toggle) to the previously enabled tool.
::选择器工具是Inkscape中最常用的工具.因此,为了提高这个工具的易用性,它有三个快捷键,并且是具有'切换'功能的两个工具之一.选择器工具的三个快捷键之一是空格条,它切换了选择器工具的激活.当使用任何其他工具时,按空格条切换到选择器工具,然后执行基于选择器工具的编辑.一旦选择器工具编辑完成,请再次按空格条返回 (切换) 之前启用的工具.

The fourth bar down, from the top, is the
Rulers bar
, this interface bar is two-sided as it also displays along the left side of the Canvas. Both of the rulers directly border the Canvas area. The top bar (left to right) is "horizontal" and is referred to as the
X axis
. The left bar (down to up) is "vertical" and is referred to as the
Y axis
within Inkscape. In the example Rulers bar graphic, the X axis ruler's down arrow icon (⏷) and Y axis ruler's right arrow icon (⏵) follow the on-canvas cursor's positioning. If you prefer not to use the Guidelines or Canvas Grids, zooming in while editing nodes, handles, etc. will increase the accuracy of on-canvas editing. The Node's Tool Controls bar also has precise x/y numeric-value boxes for an objects bottom-left bounding boxes corner for x/y placement on the canvas.
::从上方向下的第四条条是"统治者"条,这个接口条是双面的,因为它也显示在帆布的左侧.这两个统治者直接与帆布区域接壤.顶条 (从左到右) 是"水平"的,被称为X轴.左条 (从下到上) 是"垂直"的,被称为Inkscape中的Y轴.在"统治者"图形示例中,X轴统治者的向下箭头图标 () 和Y轴统治者的右箭头图标 () 遵循帆布光标的位置.如果您不喜欢使用指南或帆布网格,在编辑时放大图标,手柄等,将增加帆布编辑的准确性.节点的控制条还具有精确的x/y值框,用于在底部

- Delay in ms (slider)
- Postpone snapping as long as the mouse is moving, then wait in milliseconds (ms) before applying the snap. The delay is set on this slider, with values from 0 to 1000 ms available. When set to zero or a very small number snapping will be immediate.
- Only snap the node closest to the pointer (checkbox)
- Try to snap to the node that is closest to the mouse pointer (cursor). Example, If you want to use the bottom left node (corner) of an object as a snap point, start the drag (click + hold, left mouse button) close to the bottom left corner of the object.
- Weight factor (slider)
- When multiple snap targets are found, Inkscape can either prefer the closest transformation (when set to 0). Or prefer the node that was initially the closest to the pointer (when the slider is set to 1).
- Snap the mouse pointer when dragging a constrained knot (checkbox)
- When dragging a knot along a constraint line, then snap the position of the mouse pointer instead of snapping the projection of the knot onto the constrained line.

First lets define
Opacity
with regards to graphic design. The opacity value applies the transparency (see through) percentage of an object or a group of objects. The percentage is a unit of measure to which the background behind (below) the object is overlaid.
::首先让我们定义Opacity与图形设计有关.Opacity值适用于一个对象或一个对象组的透明度 (透视) 百分比.百分比是对象背后 (下面) 的背景被覆盖的测量单位.
The opacity percentage-value,

Please note that in Inkscape, Opacity refers to the transparency of
both
an object's
fill and stroke
. While the term
Alpha
refers to Color models (RGB
A
, HSL
A
, CMYK
A
, etc.) and allows for individual alpha (transparency) editing of either an object's fill and stroke.

The Statusbar's layer settings is a minimized version of the full featured "Layers Dialog" and allows for
quick layer selection/settings
. The Layer Dialog will be fully covered in the Dialogs chapter. Briefly, layers allow for the creation and grouping of objects within a given layer, not to be confused with the object group/ungroup features. If you are new to graphics, most graphic nerds use layers from a bottom to top method for their artwork, this is a side step as most people see things from a top to bottom view. An example of using layers can be drawn from the creation of a birthday card, here is a quick outline of the potential layers:
::状态的层设置是全面功能"层对话"的最小化版本,允许快速选择/设置层.层对话将在对话章节中完全涵盖.简而言之,层允许在给定的层内创建和分组对象,不要与对象组/不分组功能混.如果您对图形是新手,大多数图形学 nerds 使用层从底到顶方法为他们的艺术品,这是一个侧步骤,因为大多数人从顶到底看待事情.使用层的例子可以从创建生日卡中提取,这里是潜在层的快速概述:
-
Text (layer 6 - Top), Happy Birthday _ _ _ _ _!
::文字 (第6层 - 上层), 祝你生日快乐! -
Photograph (layer 5), bitmap image of birthday person
::照片 (第5层),出生日的人的位图图像 -
Candles (layer 4)
:: (第4层) -
Balloons (layer 3)
::气球 (第三层) -
Gradient (layer 2), contains a radial gradient or a filter/effect over the background layer
::梯度 (二层),包含一个辐射梯度或过器/效果在背景层 -
2nd Background/Backrop, contains a different background color for quick comparison
::包含不同的背景颜色以快速比较 -
Background/Backdrop (layer 1 - Bottom), contains a background color for the birthday card
::背景/背景 (第1层 - 下方),包含生日卡的背景颜色
The Layer settings let you work on one layer and its objects potential filters/effects, with no worry of mistakenly editing other objects. For a first time user the layer features may not seem essential. But as a given creation becomes more complex, the layers make graphic editing so much easier.
::层设置让你在一个层和它的对象潜在的过器/效果上工作,不用担心错误地编辑其他对象.对于第一次使用者来说,层功能可能看起来不必.但是随着特定的创作变得更加复杂,层使图形编辑变得更加容易.
Here are the definitions of the Statusbars' layer settings. The first button is the layer
view
/ hide
button
. Followed, to the right, by the
lock
/ unlock
button
of the current layer. When a layer is locked the objects within this layer are still displayed but cannot be selected nor edited. The layer's name and its
drop down menu
allows for a quick way to change layers. The Statusbar's layer settings are a quick and essential way of moving between layers.
::以下是状态的层设置的定义.第一个按是层查看/隐藏按.右边是当前层的锁定/解锁按.当一个层被锁定时,该层中的对象仍然显示,但无法选择或编辑.层名称及其下拉菜单允许快速更改层.状态的层设置是层之间移动的快速和必不可少的方法.

Once the file save is complete the Statusbar will then display an updated notification message with the file's directory information. While most applications have this similar feature, Inkscape's notifications implementation stands as one of its best features.
::状态通知消息是基于任何类型的菜单交互生成的,除了"扩展菜单 (v0.91) ".作为一个例子,点击"文件",然后将光标向下移动并突出显示"保存"选项.状态将更新并显示"保存文档"的新通知消息.现在点击"保存"选项,将显示"保存文件"的新通知消息.一旦文件保存完成,状态将显示更新的通知消息,其中包含文件的目录信息.虽然大多数应用程序都有类似的功能,但Inkscape的通知实现是其最好的功能之一.
If you are new to graphics, notification messages are very helpful when interacting with the Menu's bar. More than 70% of the Menu bar's commands are based on graphics. These messages provide great help with the understanding of what a specific graphic based command will do and will also update the message if a command failed to execute.
::如果您对图形是新手,则在与菜单交互时通知消息非常有帮助.菜单的70%以上的命令是基于图形的.这些消息对了解特定的图形命令的作用有很大的帮助,如果命令未能执行,则会更新消息.
In this example three messages are shown with the last two b) and c) are user errors and shows how the Statusbars display will update with assistance based notification messages on how to execute the command correctly.

Notification Display:
Provides very useful live tooltips and notifications based on the current edit being performed. If the window is too small to show all of the message, simply mouseover the notification display area and a pop-up message will show all of the text.

In vector graphics, sometimes the positioning of objects can be cumbersome. But dependent upon what the final workup will be used for positioning can be very important. Laser printers, material cutters will print/cut with precision and therefore any mis-alignment of objects may easily be seen. The X: (horizontal) and Y: (vertical) display shows exactly where the cursor is on the canvas. A higher zoom level increases the accuracy of the cursor's position. Grids, Guides, Snapping and Zoom levels are additional methods for increasing accuracy of object, handle, node, text, etc. vector based placements.
::在矢量图形中,有时对象的定位可能很麻烦.但取决于最终的处理将用于定位可能非常重要.激光打印机,材料切割机将精确地打印/切割,因此任何对象的错误对齐都可能很容易被看到.X: (水平) 和Y: (垂直) 显示器显示精确地显示光标在画布上的位置.更高的变焦水平增加了光标位置的精度.网格,指南,快速缩放和变焦水平是增加对象,手柄,节点,文本等矢量基于位置的精度的额外方法.

Tip
- When working with blurs, path effects, filters and extensions you may want to set the zoom level to 100%. This will help you see the final workup. As an example, some filters may not seem impactful enough when viewed at 100%. A work-around for this is to repeat (stack) the same filter (at 100% zoom) onto the object until you are satisified with the filter's edit.

Dialogs
::对话
A dialog is a window that allows an exchange of information and settings between the user and Inkscape features. A dialog obtains additional information from the user that is needed to carry out a particular setting or edit. A dialog appears in a its own panel window. Inkscape's dialog windows can be identified by a Menu bar command/edit that is followed by three dots, here is an example of a Menu bar dialog feature:
::对话窗口是一个允许用户与Inkscape功能之间交换信息和设置的窗口. 对话窗口从用户那里获取需要进行特定设置或编辑的额外信息. 对话窗口出现在自己的面板窗口中. Inkscape的对话窗口可以通过一个菜单命令/编辑,然后用三个点来识别,以下是菜单对话功能的一个例子:

Dock and Float
::停靠和漂浮
Any open dialogs are raised above (float) the canvas and can also be viewed under a dockable (right attachment) setting. When a dialog is docked it will attach itself to the right side of the interface next to the Snap Controls bar. Both of the dialogs, float and dock, have left pointing arrow on the right side of the title bar. Mouseover of the left arrow will display the tooltip message "Iconify this dock". Left-clicking this button will minimize the dialog to the right side of the interface.
::任何开放的对话框都会升到画布上方 (浮动),也可以在可对接 (右附加) 设置下查看.当对话框对接时,它将自己附加到接口的右侧,旁边是快速控制.两个对话框,浮动和对接,在标题的右侧有左向箭头.鼠标移动左箭头将显示工具提示消息"标识此端口".左键点击此按将将对话框最小化到接口的右侧.
