Adobe Illustrator to Inkscape: clipping paths and masks

The image I was using was a cog ‘shape’ and over that I placed another cog shape. The bottom one I wanted scored around the outside edges and the second one placed on top, I wanted engraved. Like a dark on light thing. I understand now…that’s when I got the error…and should have first used a boolean op. Thank you. Yay…I get so excited when I ‘get something’!

Happy it was helpful for you. I always love when it “clicks” too.

Nothing new here, but you guys are all amazing! You just carried right on here after I had to leave. But, I saved this page so I could read through it when I had more time. My thanks to each and every one of you.

In “Southern” it’s a tense of the word think :slight_smile:

Who would believe (think) that? = Who woulda thunk it? :slight_smile:

Akin to “tump,” to turn over unexpectedly-- Didya see that truck tump over on the bypass?
