Hello Guys,

I have recently installed Inkscape once I bought my Wacom Bamboo graphics tablet. I have made a drawing with Calligraphy and I cant seem to get the same settings that were in my drawing. The Drawing is:

Could anyone please help me with the settings so that I can continue drawing in the same style.

Many Thanks Guys,

Matt.

Welcome Matt!

I don't use the Calligraphy tool very much, and I don't have or use a tablet. But just by observation and trial and error, I would guess the settings would be close to this:

• width 35 to 40
• pressure sensitivity is on or off, whatever you prefer
• I'm not sure what the next setting does, but the Guide probably explains it (Help menu > Inkscape manual, with internet connection)
• thinning might not apply, but I would say not more than 10 (by the looks of your sample image)
• angle 60
• fixation 90 to 100
• caps 0
• tremor 0
• wiggle 0
• mass might be more of a personal preference thing -- it sort of slows down your stroke (the higher value, the slower it draws) I like it because it helps me make smoother strokes with a mouse.

Someone who uses the Calligraphy tool with a tablet might have more detailed tips than me, though, and certainly more informed advice. But this should get you started

Thank You Sooo Much... it is exactly what I needed...

Many Thanks,

Googie...

You're welcome
