      Two questions;

      I want halftone screen effect text in VS, but adding modifiers in attached file have no effect whatsoever. Tried to swap their modifier position in the effect-layer panel.

      1, What is the best approach?

      1. In Inkscape you can blur vektorobjects (and live text) non-destructively without rasterisation. How is this possible in VS?

        @Raaskot The Image Effects panel can be used to blur to any vector object.

          You're right, thanks.

          I want to add halftone effect in the panel but I can't make it work with type – neither live nor vectorised. Do I miss something out?

            @Raaskot The Halftone as an image effect will not do anything with a full black text, for these you need some gray level or color.

            But another way to get this is to first create a vector halftone effect (Panels -> Effects -> Halftone), and then add a blur on the resulting object, as in this example:

            0_1767730701638_halftoneblur.vstyler

            you need to adjust the blur strength, and the halftone options

              Fine, thanks. Using repeater is an option off course ...

              Yet I want the dots appear sharp, not blurred. The vector image ought to be blurred before halftone. I understand, that this is not available?

                And other thing I've noticed ...

                When importing a transparent png and applying Halftone no results appear.

                Masks are not affected. Bug or by design?

                  Then you have to create a single object group with the blurred text and apply the halftone on that group.
                  I will add single object group creation to the next build

                    I will test this.

                      I tested this, and unfortunately this is by design. The Halftone effect will work on the image part only, not the mask.

                      This case can only be handled with vector halftones
