I mean, surely there must be millions of ways to do this, but for me those are the two main contenders to try. I guess one could do this purely in Python too.

With this one one will have to download the file, open it in Blender, probably fiddle a bit and then export an image, but a wide variety of things will be possible this way. I think that will be a bit more technical and maybe a bit tricky, but the results could be mindblowing and 3D and animated. Create user interface elements such as menus, headers and panels. So with this it will live on the web and then one can export the image when satisfied with how it looks.īlender has Python scripting ability, which can: As an unrelated example, this polygon can have it's faces changed with input: (used for presentations, like Powerpoint meets a website) is also very nifty, I liked working with it. I think a web-based data driven documentation (d3) is probably the most straightforward way to do this -, so one could say 'simply' HTML with input fields. I'm working on learning how, I just get terribly distracted :) Your computer will need enough RAM to handle this.This is EXACTLY what I want to do. Note: Tracing large upscaled bitmaps will result in an immense amount of data. We now can select all yellow objects, create a union object from these, and adjust fill and stroke (here a 10 px white stroke): disable all, Smooth, Suppress speckles, Smooth corners, and Optimize Path): Then I traced this image ( right) with 12 color scans and without any path optimization (i.e. The example below show a detail from above image linearly scaled by 1000% to reveal pixel blocks ( left).

Select the single yellow object to adjust Stroke or Fill settings to desired values (here I applied a 6 Pixel white stroke):įor a higher precision of the trace (down to pixel size) we may have to scale up our source bitmap, depending on its content. Reduce number of Scans until the desired object is clear (here I used 6)ĭelete all objects of unwanted colors until only a single color is left over (imported bitmap is removed here only to better demonstrate the effect):.


Select the bitmap and choose Path > Trace Bitmap.: This is how I selected the color yellow of the sunflowers to add a white border to all sunflowers.įile > Import bitmap (embed) to the Inkscape canvas: The way to generate objects by color in Inkscape would be to trace the bitmap to vector paths.
