Advanced artists find these functions indispensable in drawing software to freely create what they imagine.Ī user can either manipulate the properties of objects individually and precisely through the XML editor or, in a more general and intuitive fashion, with input devices such as mice, pen tablets, and even touch screens. Inkscape also allows users to manipulate objects precisely by adjusting node points and curves. Like other drawing programs, Inkscape offers creation of basic shapes (such as ellipses, rectangles, stars, polygons, and spirals) as well as the ability to transform and manipulate these basic shapes by rotation, stretching, and skewing. Since the beginning of its development, the Inkscape project has been very active, providing stability for the current software and the capacity for future growth. This allows one to be certain that the code complies to W3C standards. While other free and proprietary software with similar capabilities exists, Inkscape provides an interface to directly manipulate the underlying SVG code. More than just a text vector editor, Inkscape provides a WYSIWYG interface for manipulation of vector images, allowing the artist to express himself freely. Inkscape is an open source drawing tool for creating and editing SVG graphics.
