  @VectorWhiz said in Realistic vector portrait created in VectorStyler: @Subpath In the future I hope to be able to make video tutorials, but at this point I am still unfamiliar with video editing. I don't remember if you work on PC or Mac. If it is on PC then I can recommend a nice little Tool for Gif Screen recording. It's called "ScreenToGif". No real video editing but a few things can be easily recorded with it. So to speak as a starter

  @Victor-Vector Thanks for the structured graphic image; impressed by how you composed it. Basically why I love VS is its obvious effort to innovate and strive for functional completeness. Bugs are swiftly corrected while new functionality is added. I specialise in drawing realistic vector portraits and VS is among the programs best suited to do this type of work. I've worked with all serious contenders for decades, Freehand excepted, and VS holds the promise to blow its competition out if the water, so I follow its development with great interest.

  @William-Kansepa Not a tutorial, but a few notes: there are no master artboards in VS, only master canvases. use the canvas panel to navigate the various canvas types and collections. use the Canvas -> Master Canvas -> Change Master Canvas command to select a master canvas for the current canvas. this will show the artboards, layers and objects on that master canvas on the current canvas.

  @Jayanta-Das Thank you And by the way it reminds me that I don't specify the system I use and that I assume that everything works the same way in Windows or Mac. @PatrickM Thank you ! The purpose of these videos is to make people discover VS and I'm glad every time people enjoy them, despite the sometimes clumsy way they are done.

  Also remember that you can copy and paste styles and image effects which can sometimes be a lot faster depending on how you work. I added an extra paste submenu to this menu: and keep some tools handy in same menu as well:

  @Devil-Dinosaur No Problem here I understand your though very well because i worked in digital print for quite a while. Maybe we could split the Tutorials Section in those which follow these Guidlines and those which are more losely created. A Tutorial or just showing a find is a lot of work already and it would be nice to keep it simple for those who want to share finds/tricks or just a nice design.

  @vectoradmin said in Panel Sizing - The often overlooked customization: @Victor-Vector The problem with using the mouse wheel is that besides trackpads, on Mac the mouse scrolling is much smother that the regular mouse wheel. I think Click and Shift+Click with a tooltip, would be a simple solution. I appreciate learning about what needs to be considered for all the systems using VS. You have the best solution!

  @Nils the Repeater feature is something I want to dig into. Your tutorial will definitely help! Thank you for the detailed "video" lesson. I also appreciate the "Important notes" section, and calling out current bugs helps people understand if VS is not behaving as it should, making it easier to learn the tool. Well done!

  @freggern As it turns out, neither SVG or PDF can accurately render all the blend modes of VectorStyler, so the best option is a PNG. You can either use the one from the link, or I can send you either a higher resolution one, or the .vstyler file via the chat. Do you use the chat function on this forum?

  @Devil-Dinosaur , @Jono You could also use clipping in Clones. Recommend to set the "Isolation Opacity" in View > Display > Display Options lower for a better view. Here the vid Clipping in Clones And the clipping object with "no fill" offers some further possibilities.
