How to extract a portion of a graphic

Postby Lisa Gates » Thu Oct 22, 2009 1:52 pm

Hello and thanks in advance for your help.
I am a newbie with Inkscape and I've never used Illustrator.
I imported an istock illustration with several panels, and I want to cut out one of the panels to use in a design. How do I do that? I'm using an iMac w/Leopard.

Thank you!

draw a path around the part you want to use. select the illustration and the path. do object>clip>set.
