VinylRevamp 93 Posted December 1, 2014 Can someone help me out. I merged this together and now im trying to weld but its not doing it. When I go to cut preview I see some lines (soccer players feet) overlapping each other instead of the usual weld. Im using scalp. I also tried it on inkscape. Any help would be appreciated!

VinylRevamp 93 Posted December 1, 2014 Another question - would this be possible with only 1 color vinyl? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
30-284 86 Posted December 1, 2014 It would be possible with one color you just won't have any background color. I'm not sure what you are after but the soccer players feet will be cut out of the letters. If you are expecting something else then post the file so we can take a look and see what is happening.

VinylRevamp 93 Posted December 1, 2014 I DO want the feet to be cut out. I drew a quick pic on paper to show what I mean. Pic 1 shows the cutout on the letter. Pic 2 shows I want to insert the player where the cutout of pic 1 is. Am I making sense? Please dont laugh at my drawing...im horrible at it lmao!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JP Auto N Design 36 Posted December 1, 2014 in Inkscape: 1. Select player. 2. Go to Path>Linked offset. 3. Adjust the offset thickness to your liking using the single node. 4. Make sure the offset is still selected, then go Path>Object to path 5. Now choose both the text (making sure both words are combined--Path> Combine) and the offset you created. Then Path>Difference Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VinylRevamp 93 Posted December 2, 2014 @30-284 - I chose your way because I wanted to do it on scalp. It was actually front minus back. I wouldn't have known to do it without your help.....thanks!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

30-284 86 Posted December 2, 2014 Sorry for the misguided help but I always choose the wrong one and have to back up 1 step and do it again, glad it worked out for you. Donn 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
