Is there some way to import a bitmap into Inkscape and then trim the bitmap to match some arbitrarily drawn shape?
I've tried doing a boolean 'intersection' between an imported bitmap and a closed curve object I've created to no avail. Do I have to trace the bitmap first?
Any hints or tips how best to do it would be greatly appreciated.
