The Polygon Tool in Vector Ink allows you to draw polygons with any number of sides directly onto the canvas.
To begin, click twice on the Rectangle Tool in the Toolbar to access the shapes menu. From there, select the hexagon icon, then click, hold, and drag on the canvas to draw a six-sided polygon.
To change the number of sides on your polygon, open the Polygon properties panel and set the Sides property to 5. The next polygon you draw will then be a pentagon, adjusting dynamically to the number of sides specified.
Vector Ink offers a range of text options that allow you to add and customize text on your canvas as needed. Start by selecting the Text tool from the toolbar. This action will prompt a popup window where you can enter your text into the input field.
The Corner Tool is specifically designed for rounding the corners of paths. Once activated, handles will appear on the sharp corners of any selected path. To adjust the corners, select the handles individually. Dragging these handles downward will increase the rounding of the corners, while dragging upward will decrease it. Release the handles to apply the rounding changes to the corners.
The Path Builder Tool is a powerful tool for creating custom shapes by combining two or more other shapes. To use it, select the shapes on the canvas you want to combine, then select the Path Builder Tool in the toolbar. Drag between the strokes you want included in your new shape. Strokes highlighted orange indicate an open path, while blue strokes indicate a closed path. Dragging over a closed path will break it and turn it back to orange. To repair broken paths, use the Pencil Tool in the Path Builder Tools toolbar to reapply the stroke. To prevent breaking closed paths, toggle off the Sculpt Tool.
The Circle Tool in Vector Ink allows you to draw perfect circle shapes directly onto your canvas, ideal for various design needs from basic geometric forms to complex compositions.
