1. Right from 6:01 - 7:07, for linear Gradient name, the features of the tool are starkly different as compared to Inkscape 0.92. Nor am I able to find alternate ways of doing what is shown in the tutorial. 2. Multi-colored gradient doesn't seem to be formed. Please address the issue.3. The markers names are not available in the new Inskcape 0.92Thanks
The last portion of the spoken tutorial that comes after the completion of the assignment section, can be shortened. At present, it takes 40 seconds. This can be condensed to about 25 seconds. Please see the first two spoken tutorials on R to understand what I mean.
From 13:24 to 13:37, the circle is shown wrongly. I was wondering why while discussing the free hand drawing, suddenly the focus shifted to the circle. After rewinding and listening to the video three or four times, I realised that the focus was still on the free hand drawing.
I had difficulty in zooming the free hand drawing. When I zoomed (using Command + in my Mac OS X system), the focus went away and the free hand drawing disappeared from the screen. I had to really struggle scrolling to locate the drawing again.It will be nice if there is a way to maintain the focus and then zoom. Is such a feature available in Inkscape?
One has to necessarily zoom to see the effect of the stroke style action. I tried this action without zooming and I thought that this feature was not working in my installation. After some experimentation, I realised that the drawings on the tab are somewhat exaggerated and that the actual effect of this action may not be visible without zooming.
"You can increase or decrease the outline using the Stroke Style tab" is indirect and makes it difficult to understand, as this activity is being introduced first time. The adopted sequence shows the action first and then tell how to do it. The viewer has to rewind once or twice more to understand what is being done. As the reader has to do the above activity in reverse direction, I call this "reverse direction" style or "indirect direction" style. This style should be avoided when a new topic is introduced to make it friendly to the beginners.Instead, the narrator should say something like the following: "We will next show how to increase the thickness of the outline. Press the stroke style tab. Using the arrow keys, one can increase or decrease the tab." I call this the "direct narration" style. The direct narration style should be used, if we want to be novice friendly.
The narrator says "click on the stroke paint tab and then the rectangle". She meant "click on the selection tool and then the rectangle". This is a minor mistake and hence possibly can be left alone, as by now, the learner may know what is meant. This should be corrected at least in the dubbing.
When you introduced gradient tool first time, you should have allowed the viewer "see" where it is. Although the tool name appears on the screen, it does so only momentarily - possibly, we can show it for about 2 to 3 seconds to let people "see" it without rewinding. Rule 2.1.2 of the checklist, in fact, explains it.
The square and circular handles in the chosen circle appear extremely small. In Mac OS X version that I am using, these handles are about twice as large. It would have been nice if in the recorded video, larger handles are used. This is a feedback for future tutorials.
