Paul Mc Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I'm working with an old design where I've (unfortunately?) used lots of dashed lines for a pattern fill. I need to convert everything to curves for this job. I'm seeing issues and as a consequence the patterns are no longer consistent across the filled areas. I can't show the actual design but here's an illustration: The red is the original vector and the green at 50% is the result after Layer | Expand Stroke has been applied. The curve has a negative phase and it looks like this gets set to zero when the expand is applied. Also notice the funky shapes top-left and the corner top-right. This is in the latest release of AD under Windows 10. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted September 22, 2021 Staff Share Posted September 22, 2021 Hi Paul, This is something we're aware of and with development to be fixed. Obviously I know you're unable to share your file, but would it be possible for you to copy the offending Dash objects (prior to expanding) into a new document and attach that? I can get that added as a sample file to the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Mc Posted September 22, 2021 Author Share Posted September 22, 2021 Apologies, @Sean P, that was my intention but I forgot do do it. ExpandStrokeExample.afdesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
