Beginners' Questions COPY FORMAT [solved]

    Good morning,
    I'm new to INKSCAPE and this forum.
    Please forgive me for asking.
    Most programs have a "brush" tool that allows you to quickly apply the same formatting—for example, color, style, or formatting—from one object to other objects.
    I can't find it in Inkscape. Is there a way to do this?
    Thanks to anyone who can answer.

    If by properties you mean fill/stroke style. You can just do regular copy (ctrl+c), and "Edit/Paste/Style" (Shift+Ctrl+V) . There are a bunch of other special paste commands, like paste size.

    If you want to copy just the fill color, or stroke color you can use the color picker tool.

    If you want to assign style to a bunch of objects you can select them all (box selection or shift click) and then pick the style.

    I am bit confused why you called it "brush" tool. Is there a drawing software which calls it that way? In most drawing software I have seen brushes usually refer to something for drawing new lines.

    Thanks for the reply, Karlis.

    This is what it's like in Libre Office.
