Vector markup

Comparing bitmap and vector graphics

In this unit pupils will design graphics using vector graphic editing software. They will apply their skills by creating an illustration, a logo, and icons. Pupils will recognise that objects and be grouped and combined to create new elements and that vector drawings are made up of paths.

Developing vector graphics

In vector graphics, what is each shape on the canvas called?

What does grouping objects allow you to do?

What tool can help you spread objects out evenly across the canvas?

Put these steps in order to group objects:

combine multiple selected objects into a single, unified shape

Grouping objects cannot be undone once applied.

Combining objects is always easy to reverse.

Combining and grouping are both permanent changes.

Grouping can be reversed using ungroup, but combining is harder to undo.

Which statement about grouping and combining objects in vector graphics is correct?

What does the z-order decide in a vector graphic?

Put these steps in order for moving a shape in vector software:

What kind of shapes are used to build vector illustrations?

What is the main difference between vector and bitmap images?
