It was developed in 1879 [1] by illustrator and printer Benjamin Henry Day Jr. (son of 19th-century publisher Benjamin Henry Day). [2] The process is commonly described in terms of Ben Day dots , but other shapes can be used, such as parallel lines or textures .
Gradient and pattern fills can be customized using on-canvas handles. Shapes: In addition to tools for drawing basic geometric shapes, such as rectangles and ellipses, the program features tools for drawing procedural shapes like cogwheels and crosses. This is done by using a custom namespace to extend the SVG specification.
Inkscape can render primitive vector shapes (e.g. rectangles, ellipses, polygons, arcs, spirals, stars and 3D boxes) and text. These objects may be filled with solid colors, patterns, radial or linear color gradients and their borders may be stroked, both with adjustable transparency
SVG shapes can be filled and outlined (painted with a color, a gradient, or a pattern). Fills may be opaque, or have any degree of transparency. "Markers" are line-end features, such as arrowheads, or symbols that can appear at the vertices of a polygon.
Gradient colour picker which samples gradients and allows them to be used as fills, in addition to single colour picking. Gradient fill and transparency effects, also mesh fills. Connector and Dimension tools for creating flowcharts and technical drawings.
A linear, or axial, color gradient. In color science, a color gradient (also known as a color ramp or a color progression) specifies a range of position-dependent colors, usually used to fill a region. In assigning colors to a set of values, a gradient is a continuous colormap, a type of color scheme.
Illustrator 88, the product name for version 1.7, [6] was released in 1988 and introduced many new tools and features. [7] Byte in 1989 listed Illustrator 88 as among the "Distinction" winners of the Byte Awards, stating that with it Adobe had "pulled ahead" of previously industry-dominant competitor Aldus FreeHand.
