fernand0n Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Hey guys, Check this out. AF tried to combine these two shapes with only 4 nodes, removing the one at the bottom and making the new shape round. Edit: I've tried combining the rectangle with a triangle and it's worked fine.

Jowday Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I get the same error 😑 ... but only in that scenario of what I tried so far.

Staff Sean P Posted February 27, 2020 Staff Share Posted February 27, 2020 Hi fernand0n, Thanks for letting us know - Ill get this passed on. I found that after snapping the shapes if I just nudged one very slightly (0.1mm) it stopped the operation failing - I understand this isn't acceptable in all cases where accuracy is required.

SuperUser Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Hello, I am experiencing similar problems. Since 1.8 here's how combining shapes with letters works now. Can we get an ETA on this fix? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jowday Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I just rolled back to 1.7.3 after reports of failing boolean operations and gradients.

SuperUser Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I've downgraded as well. This bug is a real bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivadharshan Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Hi, I'm experiencing a similar problem and I'd like to know the ETA for this fix. This is a very fundamental tool for my work, so it will be great if guys could fix it sooner! Something similar happens to normal curves that are not expanded from a stroke.

Mithferion Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Hi there! @MattP Doing some testing, I found something very peculiar... I have some Artboards, and on the Firs one, I have each letter as a separate object (converted the texto to Curves from a Frame Text) Then, I proceeded to do the Add operation Finally, I made the same, but removing all of the shapes originated from the Serif Font It looks like it will suffer by having mostly primitive shapes, because when having more complex shapes, even the Add Operation, works as expected. I attached the test file. Best regards!
