******Steve Litt: Beginning and Intermediate Inkscape*

Online meeting at https://meet.jit.si/phoenixlug
To stick to the 2 hour maximum, meeting will begin precisely at 7pm
Mountain time, so please get there early to make sure your microphone
works. This presentation will be fast paced.

For most people in most situations, by far the best tools for creating
graphics are vector graphics editors. In the world of Linux, the most
widely used full-featured vector graphics editor is Inkscape. Inkscape
has the additional benefit of creating files in the standardized and
widely used SVG (Scaleable Vector Graphics) format, so your graphics can
be used directly in websites and/or eBooks, or converted to other formats.

In this presentation Steve will explain Inkscape fundamentals and then
walk through the creation of a book cover graphic

Steve will also briefly demonstrate creation of block diagrams.

Among the topics to be emphasized and quickly demonstrated will be:

    Templates
    Node editing
    Arrows
    Text
    Alignment and distribution
    Colors
    Block diagrams
    Gradients
