Aqeel Zafar’s Randomness

My exams are starting from this week, so, I may not be able to update this blog soon. For the mean time, I have some MindMeister’s invites for anyone who would like to try it. In case you haven’t heard about it, in their words:

MindMeister is a collaborative online mind mapping tool - you can capture your thoughts and share them instantly with friends and colleagues.

Using gradient over multiple objects usually generate very beautiful results, it is very easy to do, in case you don’t know how to, just follow these simple steps.

First of all, create any two objects (you can create more than two too), for this tutorial I am going to use two rectangles.

Now, select both objects, open Fill and Stroke window (right click -> Fill and Stroke) and choose linear gradient.

Choose any gradient of your choice and close this window, this would result in something like

Now select both objects and choose “Gradient Tool” from the left tool bar

Drag from corner of one object to the opposing corner of other object

Hurray! you have successfully created a gradient spanning multiple objects. You can use same technique on different type of and different number of objects. Have fun.

I just made a new wallet from the circuit sheet present in computer keyboard, result was much better than I expected, though there is still room for much improvement. Here are the pics:
