Lesson 1 : Tracing a simple logo

Inkscape tutorial: Basic

This tutorial demonstrates the basics of using Inkscape. This is a regular Inkscape document that you can view, edit, copy from, or save.

The Basic Tutorial covers canvas navigation, managing documents, shape tool basics, selection techniques, transforming objects with selector, grouping, setting fill and stroke, alignment, and z-order. For more advanced topics, check out the other tutorials in the Help menu.

Panning the canvas

There are many ways to pan (scroll) the document canvas. Try Ctrl+arrow keys to scroll by keyboard. (Try this now to scroll this document down.) You can also drag the canvas by the middle mouse button. Or, you can use the scrollbars (press Ctrl+B to show or hide them). The wheel on your mouse also works for scrolling vertically; press Shift with the wheel to scroll horizontally.

Zooming in or out

The easiest way to zoom is by pressing - and + (or =) keys. You can also use Ctrl+middle click or Ctrl+right click to zoom in, Shift+middle click or Shift+right click to zoom out, or rotate the mouse wheel with Ctrl. Or, you can click in the zoom entry field (in the bottom right corner of the document window), type a precise zoom value in %, and press Enter. We also have the Zoom tool (in the toolbar on left) which lets you to zoom into an area by dragging around it.

Inkscape also keeps a history of the zoom levels you've used in this work session. Press the ` key to go back to the previous zoom, or Shift+` to go forward.

Inkscape tools

The vertical toolbar on the left shows Inkscape's drawing and editing tools. In the top part of the window, below the menu, there's the Commands bar with general command buttons and the Tool Controls bar with controls that are specific to each tool. The status bar at the bottom of the window will display useful hints and messages as you work.

Many operations are available through keyboard shortcuts. Open Help⇒Keys and Mouse Reference to see the complete reference.

MSW logo programming

Logo is a programming language that is very simple and easy to learn. It is used for teaching students and children how to program a computer.

Why should we learn the Logo language?

lots of fun.
Enhances the logical sense of the children.

It is real Computer Science.

Logo is a very easy and interesting programming language to learn. It has enough depth to virtually do anything, which can be done in any other computer programming language.

How to download and install MSW Logo Software?

If Logo Programming Software is not installed on the computer, we can get it for free from the following link −

www.softronix.com/mswlogo.html

After installation, it puts a Logo icon on the desktop of your computer.

The MSW Logo screen has two parts −

A Drawing window above with a triangle-shaped TURTLE in the center.
A Commander window as shown in the following screenshot.

We will write commands in the command line, i.e., the text box at the bottom of the Commander Window. To execute or run these commands, press Enter or click the Execute Button. We can also write and run more than one command online at a time.

The command history will appear in the gray box. Click a line in the history to make it jump to the respective command line, then we can make changes (if required). Once this is done, press Enter or click the Execute Button.

The simple Logo Drawing Commands move the Turtle forward and backward and also turn it right or left. The commands and their abbreviations are given below −

fd – forward
bk – backward
rt – right
lt – left
