DarkClown Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I have a path with a gradient. Copied the path and move it somewhere else. Now the gradient on the copy is only a fraction of original gradient. But the color field for the gradient shows up properly. How can I reset the startig and endpoint for the gradient to align with the start and beginning of the curve bounding box? (I assume a gradient following the curve is still not available?!) Any help appreciated Timo Quote i7-12700KF, 3.60 GHz, 32GB RAM, SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070, Wacom Intuos 4 Tablet, Windows 11 Pro - AP, AD and APublisher V1 and V2https://www.timobierbaum.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, no… (Heck, even Apple's puny Preview app can correctly display PDFs with gradients that follow a curve!) Likely the best workaround so far is to create the gradient-on-curve in another app that supports it (e.g. VectorStyler), export as PDF and place the PDF as passthrough into Affinity. It will be displayed as slightly pixeled, but it should probably export correctly as vector if needed.

HappyDoom Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Recently stumbling over this lacking feature myself again, I'm just wondering if there are any plans on implementing propper path following gradients just like e.g. in Illustrator? I know the workaround, but that's not the ideal way of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
