Re: [Inkscape-devel] PerspectiveObject / Envelope Effect

Are you familiar with the "Envelope Deformation" LivePathEffect ?

I wonder how you like that tool and if you see possible improvements? (the math is done using 2geom, you can see the code in src\live_effects\lpe-envelope.cpp)

Looks very interesting. To be honest, I don't really understand the code. :) I deduct from the comments that it probably uses bend_path on all 4 edges and then interpolates the results according to the proximity to each edge. That seems to be a totally different approach, but I'll have to compile the sources to see if the result is actually any different to the Python script.

If you could need a helping hand with any particular problem, just let me know.
