Need help

Post by Yontz710 »

I need some help trying to figure out how to cut these flower petals in half, top to bottom. We want to make a program, with the flower shapes as the cover, so rather than cut the out whole and then hand cut them in half where we might not be real straight, I'd like to cut them out already in half. But I'm not sure how to do that, would love a crop option where I could just crop it in half. Can anyone help me figure out how to do it?
Thanks so much!!

I opened them up in Inkscape, made sure there was a node on the point of the petal I wanted to cut in half, drew a box around the nodes I didn't want and took out those ones . It needs a little tweeking to make sure it is half but it should work. Good Luck
