Its super helpful
Thanks
But from ver. 0.47 onwards, there's a new method that makes it even easier. Here's the deal:
Draw a very simple shape of how you want your line to look, like a thin triangle or arc. Just remember to close the path, and to make one side of it a simple horizontal line. Then copy that shape to the clipboard (Ctrl+C).
Now, when you grab the bezier tool, you will notice on the top left that it shows "Shape: None". From the drop-down menu for the shape, select "From clipboard". Now go ahead and draw a curve, and you will be amazed
Hit Shift+Ctrl+7 or from the Path menu select "Path Effect Editor" for fine tuning. The name of the effect is "Pattern Along Path", as you will see in the editor box.
It looks like it will take some time to get the hang of this new feature, and I haven't had the time to mess with it for a while now, but I'm sure it will be a big help when you get used to it.
Cheers!
