* How to turn an image to a symbol
|
|
|
|
Import the image into the canvas.
|
|
We will use the image to trace the lines on it.
|
|
As a personal preference, reduce the opacity of the image to make it easier to see your work in progress.
|
|
|
|
Then it's all free from here.
|
|
For a start, you can use the calligraphy and the bezier curve tool.

* Repeating patterns on a shape or path
|
|
|
|
- you need two things: the object (e.g., a shape, a single line) and a pattern to stamp all over the object
|
|
- select the object and apply the "Pattern along path" effect on it
|
|
- configure the effect to repeat the pattern
|
|
- copy the pattern
|
|
- paste and link the pattern into the object
|
|
- to finalize the effect, convert the object into path
|
|
- the new object is a group composed of the pattern tied together, you can break it apart to change each individual pattern
