I would love to see some quick tips for inkscape.
This is a
great idea. It can help new users onto their Inkscape-feet ;)
There is some exercice
which is not obvious to done.
I guess you are trying to say, that the tutorials provided need some work.
So I have made 2 quick tips, hope somebody find it useful.
I have linked the source (.png-s and svg) too, if somebody want to
modify it, or correct grammatically (Im not a native speaker).
Thanks for your work.
I'm not so sure about the term "modelling". For a CAD or 3D app, I
would
agree, but I view Inkscape more as a "drawing application", which helps
me make paintings and drawings. Though, I do like the short term for
this tip "Mirror Modelling", so maybe it is better to stick with
modelling. I don't know...
This gave me the idea, that should these tips be collected in a wiki,
each wiki page should have a sidebar, with related documentation links
(to exercises, the Inkscape book, etc.).
Remarks?
I love the idea, but am not so sure about its implementation. Usually
quick tips are just some text, presented during start up. But having too
many tips could increase the download size, so maybe one would have to
offer it as extension package.
I find your including of little sketches to be an additional little
motivator for new users to just try it out. Much better than just using
text.
The suggestion to start a InkscapeTipWiki should also be considerd.
Just my 5c's...
