Thanks! I can see where this could be super helpful with the right source material.

Gosh, thanks for this! I’d have to do a side by side comparison, but it certainly seems to perform as well as Illustrator. Especially useful if you are working on a tablet.

Interesting. Problematic for complex desgns I think. It comes in such that any color is a single object so it might have to be broken into many objects and be reassembled as needed. In Gimp there is much more control even before exporting.

Also, be prepared for bringing up the file in Inkscape and seeing nothing as all the lines will have no fill or outline, and some straight lines will be curved, so select everything and make the lines visible and perhaps filled to see where the fill is.

I think stacked is like Corel which is a problem in the GFUI. If not let me know. Thinking perhaps stacked is easier to fix than non.

Yikes! I see that the segment length is the length everywhere so that may be an issue as well.

I get much better results in AI.

I just did some comparisons. :frowning:

Good to know! Since I’m spending all that dough for CC. :smile:

This looks like it intends to become a commercial offering and, might just be an implementation of Vtracer but, here is another one to play with (“free while in beta”).
