Hi Pilou,

You mean for controlling the width of the shape? I think that's a feature of Inkscape for applying a pattern to follow a curve, that part does not have any specific relation to Spiro, Spiro is used there for the centerline curve.

I hope to be able to have something similar to that pattern-applying stuff with some of the deformation tools that I want to work on for v3.

cool :)

Hi DesuDeus

thanks for the hint to Spiro Curves. Nice tutorial.
Could be a really nice improvement for upcomming releases.

A simple D with "spiro" and a star for "pattern along path"

Spiro curves are quite cool!

FYI:
You can do a "copy and paste" from Inkscape to Corel or Illustrator.

Thanks for the tip BurrMan, I wouldn't have tough of trying this.

It also works in xara.

Great tip BurrMan, much appreciated! Works for me under OSX with an old copy of Canvas 9 too :-)
