New explainer video out today!
Today I’m proud to announce the newest addition to our explainer playlist!
It’s all about the latest 2.34 feature: Inkscape Sync!
What’s even cooler…
This video was recorded and narrated by our fresh collaborator, Flechette, who requested the issue, contributed code and gave great insights on how it should work.
Nerding out!
For instance, without her I would have been breaking my brain to this day about how Inkscape sets its group pivots:
- take the global image scale
- draw a bounding rects around all the shapes in the group at that scale
- calculate the center of that bounding rect
- subtract the
inkscape:transform-center-xandinkscape:transform-center-yattribute from there
Who knew? 
The video!
So without further ado, I am super proud to present:
The perfect Inkscape to Godot SVG 2D Art Animation Workflow using Scalable Vector Shapes 2D
Release 2.35.0 - Snap to Grid
Today I finally managed to integrate godot’s own grid snapping in release 2.35! Special thanks go out to:
- DigitalDesignDex for requesting the feature which motivated me to find help and do the research
- @mrcdk for pointing me to the right place and providing code examples in this answer
- @ximossi to suggest the stroke extrusion released earlier, which plays nicely with the snap
It’s out now on github
And coming soon to the asset store and ye olde asset library

Release 3.0.3 - Create Tab and important patch
What? A major release? What breaking news? What broke?
It’s been out for a while now, the new Create Tab release, which completely overhauled the in engine drawing experience. It’s far from done too. You can consider it breaking news, but no real API break here:
I’ve been a bit silent due to moving house up to the 6th floor (5th really)… Plant, family and all the 100 boxes:
The auto-scaling svg textures patch
What is a real API break, however is the patch I had to make for this feature:
If you’ve been using this, you will want to upgrade, because the export is broken (I made the rookie mistake 15 months ago of using a custom resource type, which was not necessary and only ever worked in the editor mode). I don’t think this feature was very popular until recently when the first bug report came it.
After updating, you will alas, have to reset the textures with the button to effectively replace the exported resource object with basic properties.
Were auto scaling svg textures in this plugin as well?
Yes. Learn more about them all the way down the Readme on Github
