Inkscape – Objects to Pattern

Tutorial : Objects to Pattern
Duration : 00:04:45
Application : Inkscape 0.91
OS : Ubuntu GNOME 16.04

We can apply the same generated pattern as Fill and Stroke to any other vector object using Fill and Stroke in Inkscape. In this video tutorial I used white color so that we can change the background object color to our choice. If we need any fix background color, we can fill the outer box of the pattern objects to our choice and generate objects to pattern.
