Warp with TEXT ( Rectangles )

[Michael Bobarev]

Hey guys,

interesting, how i can warping by using rectangles (or text ) to twist; embossing ... so i would like to use shapes as a borders of warping.

Is it possible? ( or feature request it is)

Thanks !

You can mask warp groups in the same way as other layers. For example, create a text layer (mask). Then move the deformation group into the text layer in the layers panel:

Michail, thank you for your conversation with me ! -)

Mmm, i'm not about MASKING -)

Let's say i want to PUSH "A" ( Emboss ) into DOTS and move ( WARP ) borders of "A" letter in this case.

In principle, this would work the same way. Since it does not work with groups, you have to merge all the individual curves beforehand. If the individual circles are to have different colours (as in your example), it is a little more complicated. Then you have to copy the warp group into each individual object plane. But then you lose the flexibility.

Another possibility:
When you are done with the warp, convert it to curves (no longer editable). Then use the Boolean operator Split. Now you can remove all the objects you no longer need.
