jackamus Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Speaking as a technical illustrator I have two requests which are related. 1 A feature that allows a 'Compression profile', similar to 'Pressure profiles' that can be applied to a series of objects. See attached file. The Compression profile was used to change A into B. Great for drawing tyres! I believe that a similar feature was used in Draw Plus but it was difficult to control. 2 A feature that allows all 8 bounding box handles to be independently moved for distortion purposes. These two features used together would be great for creating realistic perspectives. eg When drawing a railway line or fence the Compression profile would be used to create the progressive foreshortening and using feature 2 to create the perspective effect.

Gear maker Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Ooh that could be really handy. I never thought of having the program do that before I've always just tried to calculate it or eyeball it. Great idea! jackamus 1 Quote iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) with macOS Sierra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
