    Hi everyone. I have a question considering inkscape. I have a vector image(which was converted from jpeg photo) . i am going to uv print it on aluminum enclosure. the thing is that the enclosure is black, and the vector's main color is also black. i would like to make the black area transparent and leave the white area white as it is right now. i have googled but havent found anything. please help.

     

    i have converted to png and uploaded it so you can see how it looks.

    In essence: go Path->Break Apart. Select the big shape and change its color. Now select everything by selecting one and go select->Same=fill color - now change it to requested "white"  - change the big shapes color to black again - done.
