There are also some useful shortcuts for different zoom levels - 5 zooms out to show you the whole page and 1 gives you a 1:1 zoom.įirst, show the grid by going to View > Grid, or #. The shortcut to show/hide the scrollbars is Ctrl-B (you can see why I might have this issue.)
I seem to constantly hide the scrollbars by accident. Go to File > Document Properties > Page, or Ctrl-Shift-D > Page. Mine was A0, which is an option in the list, but you can also enter custom values. One word of warning - I used the Linux version of Inkscape, and I'm not sure if everything's in the same menus for all versions.įirst things first: set the page size to your poster size. I'd used it previously for making some vector graphics, but I still learned a lot of new tricks in making this.
I usually make my posters in LibreOffice Impress, but this time I had some trouble with Impress crashing and so finally decided to make the switch to Inkscape, a free vector graphics program which works on Linux, Mac and Windows. A photo posted by Beth McMillan on at 5:43am PDT
