Inkscape, alternative Linux à Paint 3D

Mis à jour le 26 octobre 2026

Notre avis

Inkscape can replace Paint 3D for users who want more precision and vector output, but it is not a drop‑in for casual 2‑D raster drawing or quick 3‑D prototyping. It excels at detailed vector illustrations, SVG export, and advanced editing, while lacking a simple brush‑based canvas and the low‑poly 3‑D editor that Paint 3D offers. If you need clean vector artwork and occasional 3‑D model export, Inkscape is a solid choice; if you prefer a quick, paint‑like interface with built‑in 3‑D shape tools, another Linux app may suit better.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil

Both allow drawing 2‑D shapes and exporting to common image formats (PNG, JPEG).
Both support layers or a form of compositing.
Both provide basic shape tools and brush palettes.
Both run on Windows and Linux, though Inkscape is native to Linux.

Ce qui change

Inkscape uses vector graphics (SVG) instead of raster, so it is not a direct raster paint tool.
Paint 3D offers a built‑in low‑poly 3‑D editor; Inkscape only supports 3‑D export via OBJ/STL but no interactive 3‑D creation.
Paint 3D has a very simple, beginner‑friendly UI; Inkscape’s interface is more complex and geared toward designers.
Inkscape does not natively import Paint 3D’s .png or .jpg files with 3‑D layers; you must export to raster first.
Inkscape lacks the quick brush‑stroke painting experience that Paint 3D provides.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Paint 3D

Inkscape can open PNG and JPEG files exported from Paint 3D, but it cannot open Paint 3D’s proprietary .png files with embedded 3‑D layers directly. For 3‑D models, Paint 3D can export STL or OBJ, which Inkscape can import as vector shapes after conversion. Importing native Paint 3D files (.png with 3‑D data) is not supported; you need to export to a common format first.

Passer de Paint 3D à Inkscape, étape par étape

Export your Paint 3D artwork as PNG or JPEG.
Open the raster file in Inkscape to use it as a background layer.
Use Inkscape’s vector tools to redraw or refine the image.
If you need 3‑D models, export from Paint 3D as STL or OBJ, then import into Inkscape for vector conversion.
Save your finished work as SVG for future editing or export to PNG/JPEG for sharing.
Keep a backup of the original Paint 3D file in case you need to revert.

Questions fréquentes

Can I use Inkscape to edit Paint 3D 3‑D models directly?

No. Inkscape can import exported STL or OBJ files, but it does not provide an interactive 3‑D editor like Paint 3D. You would need a dedicated 3‑D application for that.

Does Inkscape support layers the same way Paint 3D does?

Inkscape has a layer system, but it is more suited to vector objects. It does not support 3‑D layer compositing that Paint 3D offers.

Will my Paint 3D brush strokes look the same in Inkscape?

Brush strokes in Paint 3D are raster; when exported to PNG they become pixels. Inkscape can trace the raster image to create vector strokes, but the result will differ from the original raster paint.
