ICON STROKES ON A PATH

[Cabra]

Hi all,

Does Designer have any stock stroke which have themes, i.e. Footprints, fancy icons arrows etc. We are doing some maps and need to indicate walking path and the like and the client wants foot prints.

Kind regards, Steve Warren

No there are no stock themed strokes.

You can create brushes that will do what you want: 

A few examples of what you can make

You can use Path Text (text on a path) to do this

There are some footprint fonts you can download if needed.

Alternatively, just find a footprint image you like and paste that onto the Path Text and repeat as necessary - like the example below

(Path Text can contain text and images)

Note: If you have to move/tweak the path the footprints will follow, so easy to adjust them. If the client does not like the footprints you choose you can replace them all in one go with another, via the Resource Manager
