Yadley Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I`m following this tutorial on multistrokes but for some reason, I am not able to duplicate/add strokes. Clicking on duplicate has no effect and neither does clicking on 'add stroke' below. What am I doing wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lepr Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 The Appearance stuff has strange restrictions, which looks like a bug, except the Add controls are actually greyed out rather than non-responsive when they aren't functional, so maybe its deliberate. Text objects and Group objects (even without a Text member) cannot be given multiple strokes and/or fills, but Compound objects (even with a Text member) can. By the way, there are also definite bugs involving multiple strokes/fills. R C-R 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 What anon2 has said is correct, it appears that you have two objects selected, try with just one. Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yadley Posted June 5, 2020 Author Share Posted June 5, 2020 Thanks for coming to the rescue @anon2 and @Old Bruce. I just discovered that this specific issue is not a bug. Actually, I was trying to add multiple strokes to a piece of text and I didn`t know that this was a striving against the wind. That highlighted object in my screenshot above is actually one piece of text - letter 'Z' (Anurati font). Now I know better, thanks again!
