Well in AP there is also an option that i can set Pen-STROKES into a "brush". But i dosent work, or at least i found no way!

I guess you need vector-brushes for stunts like this, and AP does not have. So for what this "option  in  the stroke area is for???

 

2.

Any possibility that stroke-"BREAK"(Curves goes into another direction)  this "connected" points get/became automatically an (auto circle/rectangel...  or other stuff like this)...  I mean, i am in Straight-mode... and every time i set a point and change the direction... JUST THIS POINT(s)  becomes special forms...

Too Abstract? Have you ever seen some "diagrams" to visualize some, dozen's, hundreds... of  NETWORK(connecting) POINTS as  "one" "Stroke"????  Thats what i mean! 

 

Thank you!

Is this post supposed to follow on from another post? It seems to follow on from something else! If so, it would be better if it was in the same thread, so we know what was said before.

Yes, that requires a vector brush.

The option is there because you can open a file created with Designer in Photo, so you'd at least need to be able to see that the option is set.

Probably you should only be able to turn it off in Photo, though.

You worded like it was a continuation. 

"Well, in AP there is also an option ...".

That sounds like you were discussing something somewhere else, and had an additional thought. :)

Thanks WF.

Maybe i should by AD too and for now-selling 25€ its best price ever for such brilliant app...

BUT..  i´m waiting untill they have implement at least the functions from the FREE KNOB_MAN_TOOL from 2011 (that was/is an free-internet-"App")... too create animation-stripes (in 64, 128, 256.... frames (= just Power-duplicate...() as long i NEED this 2011 (free web tool, too create simply stuff like this) SERIF does not get any cent from me... any "designer-app" without some function is ridiculous for me.

For whatever it is worth, I have always understood the German word „also“ to be equivalent to “so” in English. The English word “also” means “additionally” („zudem“).

In German + English "also" never has the same meaning – but it can sound that way when both meanings seem possible without changing the content. For instance:

"I dreamed that the doorbell rang but I could not move. Also I could not open the door."

What you call "false friends" exist not only between two languages but also already within German, when words have several meanings. Often it is very helpful to simply skip (omit, avoid, not use) these words to create more clarity. For example, "AP has the ability to set pen strokes ..." expresses what you wanted to say, with fewer opportunities for confusion. "Well" + "also" were unnecessary and redundant.

Besonders im Forum verwirren Füllwörter und Floskeln eher, weil der Leser kaum erkennen kann, ob sie verwendet wurden, um etwas Bestimmtes auszudrücken. Hier haben Paul und Walt dein "also" als bedeutsam verstanden … was sie auf die falsche Fährte geführt hat. Dabei spielt das Missverständnis der Übersetzung gar keine Rolle, denn auch mit "folglich" oder "daher" – anstatt "auch" – konnte es irreführend sein.
