Make Blend tool
in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Posted
Here's a potential solution for those interested in doing a workaround.
In my experience, using the Power Duplicate Feature Using CMD + J repeatedly after making a small adjustments in conjunction with the blend tool has given some pretty good results.
Perhaps the development team can work off that and allow for Power Duplication "CMD +J" to still maintain the copied instance after a layer has been converted to curves, then one could give a better more seamless duplication at any angle.
Because right now when I do a duplication, then convert to curves, then adjust the nodes, the duplication command will not continue
I do understand that the blend tool inside of illustrator is vastly more robust then what I just described, with the ability to specify the number of steps, previewing color transition etc. but I'm hoping maybe a good start would be to make "Duplication" more powerful could be a good first step.
While I would love a similar feature as the Make Blend tool in illustrator, I think the charm of Affinity is that it doesn't have a tool for everything and sometimes using a little imagination and "digital drawing technique" to get similar and sometimes the same affect. I can say after using AD for a while it makes me think about the perception and how to "see" and design rather than a tool per situation type of deal.
