![]() ![]() ![]() The larger and clearer the original, the better the results will be. Is the PNG that you attached the same size as the original? Yeah, that's pretty small to be used successfully with Trace Bitmap. But if I do understand correctly, that would only add more nodes, and make the file even larger. So you're thinking if the parts of the objects which lie on top of each other could be removed, it would make a smaller file. And the next smaller one on top, and on and on. You mean where the image is made up of the background (largest layer) and the next smaller layer/object/color is on top. Ooohh, I think I understand what you mean about visible layers now. Yes, fairly common problem, but much depends on the original image. Maybe someone else knows where it is, or maybe I'm mis-rememering It seems like I heard about an extension that can move each path to its own layer. So if you have a larger one that you can use, you can probably reduce the amount of manual work. The larger the image you use for tracing, the better results you will get. But if you expect to use Inkscape a lot in the future, you may as well get used to doing it yourself ![]() If this is a one-time task which you will be using Inkscape for, and you can share the SVG, I might offer to clean it up for you. Maybe you had that checked and didn't realize it? Or you could simply draw a rectangle yourself, and put it at the bottom of the stack, to create the background. There's a checkbox at the bottom of the Trace Bitmap dialog, to remove the background or not. A custom script could probably help somewhat, but I don't know of any. See Inkscape Preferences > Behavior > Simplification Threshold.īut on that image, with that many scans, manual tweaking of nodes probably can't be avoided. If that distorts the path too much, you can adjust the threshold for simplifying, so that it doesn't take as many nodes. If even one click distorts the path, you can ungroup the trace results and select each path, one at a time, and use Simplify on them one at a time. A second click will probably deform or distort the paths. You could try to reduce the number of nodes by clicking Path menu > Simplify once. What do you mean by "visible layers"? I've never heard of Trace Bitmap creating hidden layers. ![]()
