| Oct 28, 2023 at 12:33 | comment | added | Billy Kerr | See this example example made in Inkscape, using the cropping method | |
| Oct 28, 2023 at 12:20 | comment | added | Billy Kerr | Note that Inkscape treats white and transparency in bitmaps the same when tracing. It is not alpha aware. There are other workarounds however. See this similar question. | |
| Oct 28, 2023 at 12:17 | comment | added | Billy Kerr | Crop the image to the size of the flag in a raster image editor. Import the cropped image into Inkscape, then trace bitmap without using background removal. | |
| Oct 28, 2023 at 11:55 | comment | added | Xrott | This isn't an actual answer to the question, but I'd like to point out that there are already public domain (copyright free) SVG images for the Canadian flag on Wikimedia Commons, which will give you much, much cleaner and more accurate vectors than tracing ever could: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Canada.svg and commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Canada_(Pantone).svg You can even import it directly inside Inkscape via the 'File → Import Web Image...' dialog (switched to 'Wikimedia'). | |
