Now select all fours rectangles then go to Path menu of the menu bar and click on ‘Object to Path option’ or go with Shift + Ctrl + C keys of the keyboard. Choose different colors as a fill of these four rectangles. In the same way make two more copies of this original rectangle, in short, we have 4 rectangles of the same dimension here in our document area.

After making copy of it drag it next to the first rectangle with the help of the Selection tool. You can notice workings with the grid if quite comfortable because if you have Snap to grid option is enable then gird blocks corners automatically attract mouse cursor.īeing selected for this rectangle press Ctrl + D button on the keyboard for making a duplicate copy of it. I am drawing freehand you can draw with exact dimensions. Now draw this type of rectangle with this tool. You can do this with the Bezier tool also but I will explain it by Rectangle tool.

I will give 15 as the spacing value of it. I will increase the spacing of grid lines in the Y plane for drawing my 3D object. We will have this scroll-down list here and click on the Document Properties option or I will go with my favorite step which is the short cut key so I will press Shift+ Ctrl + D keys of the keyboard.

So I will go to the File menu of the menu bar which is at the top of the User interface of Inkscape and click on it. I will take a refer to 3D objects so that you can understand how we can design 3D objects in a better way.įirst of all, I will set a grid that will work as 3d grid for our designing purpose. You can understand it very easily if you have knowledge about the isometric view. Today our article includes grids management, Menus option manipulation, and some techniques of an isometric view of Inkscape software. You can create 3D objects, 3D logos as well as 3D art after going through the important aspect of designing that 3D work, and here I will tell you how you can do this. Inkscape 3D stands for designing any object in three dimensions, and we may create the illusion of a three-dimensional object in Inkscape to give that object a three-dimensional appearance.
