Hello;

I'm beginner in vectorial creation.

I would like to use something like the shrink selection in Gimp to get the same result like attached file, but in vector.

With Gimp I select my object, go to shrink selection, then fill this new reduced selection and move it.

But with Inkscape I don't know how to reduce a selection.
I can't copy and reduce the object because it don't feat in the first shape (You have a smaller version, and not an "inside" version).

It's the same with border stuffs, it close my inside border.

I miss some concept I guess.

Thank you for your help.
