Dotgrid - A simple vector illustration tool.

by

Dotgrid is a simple vector glyph illustration tool, that works by adding control points and drawing different line-types between them. The tool was created to design logos and glyphs for various personal projects, and made available as a free and open source application.

Exports to SVG, PNG and DOT.

Like the "Name your own price" note. Good luck!

@danie_nis I really enjoy this too! Once I fiddle around with something I know how much I would like to pay for it. Definitely planning on playing around then paying

@vivalldi98 My idea too - playing then paying :) Gives others the impression that you are confident. I hate being limited to "trial version".

@vivalldi98 @danie_nis Likewise, I wish more people did this as well :)

It's a sweet app, no doubt. But what would you actually do with it? What would you use it for?

@benjaminmock Personally, I use it to create these glyphs: https://github.com/XXIIVV/oscean... https://hundredrabbits.itch.io But I've seen others use it to create their own brand logos: https://www.behance.net/gallery/... Or, on twitter people use it for various random things: https://twitter.com/nicolastilly... It is also the main emoji/avy tool in the Rotonde P2P social network: https://louis.center/p2p-social-...

Nice БНТУ picture!

Use of keyboard modifiers would be nice, and the ability ctrl+z ;)

Pros:

Looks clean, and a great Idea

Cons:

Not great to use - would benefit from some UX/UI work

Implemented undo/redo :) Finally. Sorry it took a while.

You have to rethink how you draw paths, but I really like the minimal approach. Good work!
Zach Dubos
so simple.

This is fun! Super weird at first but I like it now. I already started designing some marks with it. Icons were kinda confusing but after trial and error I got them.

@tony_murphy Learning the a, s, d, f shortcuts makes the app a lot more fun to use. You can collapse the option with `tab`.

This is exactly what I've been looking for.

Any plans to improve it?

@vladkorobov Absolutely, I use it everyday, and I fix and add features I need them. Or when someone suggest something in the forums. https://itch.io/t/181108/great-a...
