Beginners' Questions Tiled clones: cloning and scaling a clone

    What I'm trying to achieve: 3 lines of tiled hexagons at 100% scale, then 3 more lines with a degressive scale.

    How I'm doing it: Once the first three lines are created, I use a clone from the third row to start a new tiled clones operation. It works perfectly with a scaling factor of 0%, it breaks as soon as I change it. Is that a bug or a feature I don't understand?

    My workaround: I can duplicate the original tile, move it and start the new tiled clones from it. I'm happy to do that in the future but please correct me if there is another way.

     

    My version of Inkscape: 1.1.2 (b8e25be833, 2022-02-05) for Windows

    Try Unlink (shift Alt D) the clone you are using as original tile.
