Hello again this is Kent and we are in Inkscape Tutorials for beginners series
your number five creating and managing documents
and first we will talk about starting a new file if you're already in Inkscape
well if you're dying escaping you're prepping scape well you'll be in a new
file
usually I guess ill be the default file but you can always make
she make changes to not say your portrait
mode and you're going to landscape well they can be done
now show you eventually with how to do that army
also if you're already in scapin you wanna create a
new instanceof escape you can go to do
under File menu and then quick too far
or sometimes I will go the landscape now of
you have interesting creating some these other
items that you see business card CD you want to select one of these others
United play around with the one that would be best for you
om my way
of two times I will go with landscape if I don't an artist
change it within document properties also you can go in
open up a previous file he thereby
already being scapegoated open
we can go to open recent or if you're
and or maybe you're in one of your folders
and you use
go to the location where your files the or open a just double click it
I'm usually when you installing scape it will
whatever SVG file you double-click on
it will open tunings K so the
next thing I wanted do was okay let's say that we did go into
a new file default and I wanted
change this the change some document properties
here specially
right now it's important I wanna go and change it to
landscape redacting file document properties
score landscape guy has all these other sayings that you can change it to you
years summer to when you're
opening up a new file well spot exactly the same
but I'll you could make this
pagesize settings are changes
if you want here pixels
millimeters occupies people you see the pixels on all matters
yeah with I and this other settings
show page border that's I have
by default this is the page for also want to point out that there's
defy some other
items that you can change for your document properties
as EC appear tabs
just have to time to go
all the stuff make the video a lot longer by Tom
their somewhat self explanatory so westchester
on car let's say that we were in
now in a file we
one to
open up another file into this me there's a drawing
innings Cape that we wanted to import or copy and paste was like that well
to get that in there there's a very sweet you can do it probably the easiest
way
to do it would be let's say we have this
folder we other we wanna get this penguin here
I have to do is simply click on it
dragon you do the same thing with a photo
a bitmap drawing or something
you know that whether it's such a pain a Corey at
chip gifs or a PNG file
this kind of files this could have been met files even
I would assume BM peeve which is a bit now
it's easiest way is to just record in
they can also
just
I do believe its I can give
modest ily since yeah
on the other way you can do is you can go to import
just click Import and then find your file that you won
open up that way they can be can also open up a bitmap
a chip a PNG or
Jeff wherever can't do it that way
the only and there's another way as if you had a
another let's say that you have
another instanceof Inkscape
you can actually copy it and paste
the only time you can't do that is if it's not in the same process
meaning if I already have I can just copy this
and then come over here and pasted
the only time you cannot do that
is ive
you opening scape from your programs
and you have to separate process serving scape you try to copy
item in the other process for instance
having escaped in a different process
and he won't be your bill basin this the
your previous for your first process
I V XK making confusing but
if you find it you can't pay something real
they feel remember what I'm talking about were
I'll
it's really I think that's about it the other thing is that you can
open up you have in various Windows
Inkscape and you can
change have gobi year between scapes
for the for the instances irving's key
by clicking
alt tab
knows that it's just summer to their windows
software I think that's it
