NotMyFault Posted January 23 Posted January 23 Hi, I tried to create a line of 10 dots of 60px diameter in a row. so use pen tool, create 2 nodes 600px apart, set stroke to dotted. the play with parameters like balanced, gap, phase etc. Whenever you try to expand stroke you get wired artifacts: only 1/2 circles first circle fragmented into multiple pieces, not adding to full circle you need to increase line width by 0.1 to get circles centered, or play with phase, to avoid misplaced circles by 1/2 width. the bounding box get wiredly distorted expand stroke wiredness.afdesign Quote Mac mini M1 A2348 | Windows 10 - AMD Ryzen 9 5900x - 32 GB RAM - Nvidia GTX 1080 LG34WK950U-W, calibrated to DCI-P3 with LG Calibration Studio / Spider 5 iPad Air Gen 5 (2022) A2589 Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.

loukash Posted January 23 Posted January 23 You can use the same workaround as with the other Expand Stroke problems in v2.5.x and 2.6 beta: temporarily switch stroke to Solid Line Style reset Pressure and add a 3rd pressure node somewhere on top switch back to Dash Line Style expand stroke Works for me with your example file using 2.6 beta on Mac (I've skipped v2.5.x completely exactly because of these bugs!)

Good to know. Still the resulting curves are -0.7 degree rotated (bounding box) Quote Mac mini M1 A2348 | Windows 10 - AMD Ryzen 9 5900x - 32 GB RAM - Nvidia GTX 1080 LG34WK950U-W, calibrated to DCI-P3 with LG Calibration Studio / Spider 5 iPad Air Gen 5 (2022) A2589 Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.
