I’m sure we discussed something like this in relation to another project of yours, Josie, but try adapting the design in the attached file.

I can’t open the photo or picture that you posted.

It opens fine in Designer on the desktop, Josie. (I can't try my iPad right now.)

What happens when you download it to your iPad and try to open it there?

I’d like to do a 4 leaf clover with the heart tool in AD using my iPad. Here is the actual photo on the left and here is what I have.

Thanks

For a better match to the shape in the photo, shrink the hearts so they don’t overlap so much. And maybe reduce the ‘Spread’ value (default 20%) to 10% or 15%.

I like the colour you’ve chosen, but you could easily make it darker if desired.

Like this?

LOL, no, that’s not quite what I had in mind! When I said “so they don’t overlap so much” I just meant they should overlap less. I didn’t mean to suggest that they shouldn’t overlap at all.

I’ve attached a quick demo file. Here’s a screenshot showing the small amount of overlap between the five elements:

That looks great, Josie! (I would have made the stalk a bit longer, but that’s just me.)

How do I get the design to look exactly like the one in the photo?

Using this shamrock? I’ve did it the two ways and just didn’t look right to me.

Thanks
