This feature isn’t entirely necessary as you can always reposition your QR code after you apply it using the Select tool.
You can use any number here – I’m pretty sure it’s based on whatever unit your document is set in (i.e. If you change the second value, it will offset the QR code up or down (again, depending on if the number is positive or negative). If you change the first value, it will offset the location of the QR code to the left or right (depending on whether you make the number positive or negative). The first item says “m 0,1” – this is a coordinate. It’s supposed to also work for the “Symbol” Drawing type option, although the Symbol option doesn’t work in Inkscape 1.1 – at least not for me. Next, if I check the “Live Preview” option (red arrow in the above image), a QR code will display on my document (blue arrow – you may have to move the QR code dialogue out of the way to see it).īelow the smoothing dropdown is a text field titled “Path string” (yellow arrow) for adjusting the appearance and position of the QR code when you select the “Path: custom” option from the Drawing type dropdown (red arrow). Up to this point we’ve opened the QR code dialogue and added a URL to the “Text” field. I can also adjust some more advanced settings in this dialogue, which I’ll cover below. I cover some ways to customize the appearance of the QR code later in this article. You can see the final product in the image above, which was generated using the default values for Inkcape’s QR code generator. I can click “Apply” to generate the QR code (yellow arrow), then click “Close” to exit out of the dialogue (don’t exit out of the dialogue right now if you want to learn more about advanced settings in the next section). In my case, I typed my website, “,” for the “text” field.
Here, you can set various settings – including the website where you’d like people to be directed when the code is scanned with a smartphone camera (this is under the section labeled “text” – red arrow in the image above).
