I am in a moment of transition from windows to linux. I develop websites and arts for social media. I also work with UX. Although slow, I am trying to produce hypothetical arts in inkscape for training.
There are even Inkscape extensions that can help with this, I think.... At least I'm thinking of one for mocking up dials, like you would put knobs with a dial on some kind of machine. Oh, and there are some extensions for helping to mockup websites (see Extensions menu > Web). Or you could just use the native tools.
To start learning Inkscape, I would suggest Inkscape Help menu > Tutorials > Basic, Shapes, and Advanced (don't worry, the one named advanced isn't really advanced - it's basic Inkscape tools. I'm trying to get the name changed, but haven't been successful yet.) After that, I would look for tutorials. There's a huge listing of them, if you look in the top-right area of this forum for Learn button, and choose Inkscape Resources List. They're organized by skill level, and some other things.
If I don't give up computers altogether, I'll be switching from Windows to Linux too, pretty soon. Have you found any forums that are helpful and nice to newbies, for Linux (Linux Mint)?
Hi. I saw this topic too late. I am one of those who sometimes use Inkscape as a tool to make user interfaces. Right now, I am still just a hobbyist, but I hope I will be a professional some day. Here are some links to UI elements I made with Inkscape:
Hi Lungas, I have! I had to come up with an insurance manual using a proprietary system (Accenture Duck Creek). Let me know if you are interested and maybe I can send you one or two samples.
I was able to export it to EMF to be able to use it inside MS PowerPoint 2010. The EMF format is not the best, the file generated is big, but it is the only graphic that PowerPoint (at least in the version 2010) understand as vector.
How Do You Use Inkscape? inkscape for interfaces
Inkscape.org
Hello! Has anyone ever been able to use inkscape to develop interfaces? Whether they are websites, apps, etc ...
I have, and we develop inkscape itself often by using inkscape to map out designs and try things out visually.
What kind of design are you interested in trying?

PS - I am new on the forum and I am not sure if this is the right place to post the images. In case it is not, I will remove the links.
