How to adjust multiple handles of identical shapes


Recommended Posts

I am working in Designer, and I have created a shape and then copy/pasted it multiple times (to different layers) and rotated it in order to create a kaleidoscope effect. However, I need to adjust a handle on each shape but they still need to be identical. I've tried selecting all relevant nodes and adjusting one but nothing happens.

Is it possible to set a parent status for one layer and child status for all the others, so they automatically adjust identically?

Please explain the simplest way to make adjustments to one shape and it be mirrored across all other identical shapes.

Thanks.
