Mainecoon364 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Question 1) I want to put a Perfect Circle as Guide Object on a Curvy Line. But It DOES NOT SNAP to the Line 1. (As you see the Pink Circle) How can I snap It? (So that I will be able to put another curvy line 1.5 cm away. I’m trying to merge the edges of the two lines. (Line 1 and Line 2)) Question 2) Another solutions for what I’m trying to do? Guide circle on curvy line.afdesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v_kyr Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 🤔 Snapping via a circle to lines won't really work here (see for example this related thread). Other tries/workarounds would be ... to draw your lines with a double (even distributed distance) compound line brush to draw symmetrical with the help of symbols to enhance your line stroke and then expand stroke, afterwards to remove the applied fill and set instead a stroke color. Then remove on both sides the end line nodes which close the whole outline shape to draw one slightly thicker stroked line and use an third-party auto vector tracer to perform an vectorization outline trace of your line drawing ... ... and so on, possible other ways ...

Aammppaa Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Another alternative method: use the Contour Tool. Duplicate Line 1. Add a contour of size 1.5cm Convert to curves. Delete the unwanted inside of the contour.
