How to erase in Inkscape?

While you draw in Inkscape, you create individual vector objects. This means for example, if you draw 2 squares overlapping each other, they still can be selected and moved around separately (unless you merge them to one object, but I will cover this later). If you don’t need an object anymore, just select it and hit the Del key. that is all!

Note that in the latest version (0.47) developers introduced an Eraser tool. That is acting on selected objects similar to the eraser tools you are used to in Paint, GIMP or Photoshop. To use that properly you have to learn to edit paths and notes. I will come to that later, it is a huge part of illustrating in Inkscape.

Have a good time drawing! Contact me if you have any questions so far!
