Select all the objects that you want to clip \/ crop, and group them together with Object > Group from the menu. Draw a shape over the top of the group where you want to clip \/ crop. This can be any single shape, a rectangle, a circle or even a star. This is our clipping object.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
To cut out a shape from an image with Inkscape, place your shape over the images, select both the shape and the image at the same time, then create a clipping path from it by navigating to Object, Clip, Set. This opens in a new window. It should be noted that this tutorial is for making your image fit a specific shape.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Go menu Object->Clip->Set and the object on the bottom gets clipped to the shape of the object on top.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
