How to turn a png into a vector/wickobj

Demos and Tutorials
#1

Convert your raster into vector in this handy lil site
it works pretty good in my experience


now you wont be able to directly import the svg in wick so go to the legacy version and import it there
save your project
https://legacy.wickeditor.com/
use the converter and import in wick

select the vector and covert into clip
select the clip and click ctrl+e to save as .wickobj

how does this help @FfersBetter besides having the wickobj saved

#3

Normally, you cant import an svg in wick editor

#4

but why dont you just import the png

#5

Because vectors are different from pngs?

#6

I don’t understand that’s just me?

#7

PNG’s are bitmaps. Bitmaps use pre-determined resolution and pixels. SVG’s are vectors. Vectors use math equations which gives infinite resolution at any scale.

#8

In caveman’s terms:

PNG make big blurry, SVG make big good!

#9

Also, the .wickobj from legacy is not the modern one, call legacy’s WICKOBJ 1, and modern WICKOBJ2.
