tbhockey Posted August 3, 2016 Posted August 3, 2016 I really need something similar to Illustrator's "Blend" tool where you can have 2 vector options, make a blend, and they set the number of steps and some other properties used to create the individual steps in-between. I don't see anything like this in Affinity Designer, am I just missing something? Thanks. Jowday, Kal, Marila and 7 others 10 Quote
Staff Leigh Posted August 3, 2016 Staff Posted August 3, 2016 Welcome to the forum tbhhockey :) Affinity designer doesn't have a Blend Tool yet but it will come in the future.

Rickmc Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Hello Affinity Team,just want to ask how the status of the Blend Tool is?Can we expect it soon? Rick Marila 1 Quote
Staff MEB Posted February 13, 2017 Staff Posted February 13, 2017 Hi Rick, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) The roadmap covers the whole 1.x cycle. We have no eta for any specific feature. It will become available as soon as the dev teams finish it (but before version 2.0!). Robert Hansford 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software

chrisrobweeks Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Also wondering about a Blend Tool. So far I'm loving Affinity Designer and would love to cut ties with Adobe, but this is one tool I use very frequently. Marila 1 Quote
Yoon Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 Absolutely all my friends designers would like to use AD, and Blend Tool does not allow to do this. Initially, we did not even believe that such a powerful program lacks the most standard tool. If it was possible do this to with a plug-in, it would be wonderful. Marila 1 Quote
VFXTobias Posted May 5, 2018 Posted May 5, 2018 Are we getting this at some point? I totally just got bit in the arse on a project when I discovered this wasn't there. I know it sounds petty but it really is a major time drain not having it there. Quote Affinity Photo & Designer Windows 10 64 bit. nVidia1080ti, 64GB RAM, i7 4.XK proc, Wacom Intuos Medium Tablet.

jamiedanwhite@gmail.com Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Hello, it is now 2019 and there is still no Blend Tool. At this point in time has there been any updated ETA or plan to include it? Quote

ROYGBV Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 Many graphics programs had blend tools about a decade ago. It is an important advantage to using a computer for design, over drawing. Without it a digital art tool seems crippled. They would blend both colors and vector shapes. This was useful for both creating palettes with a custom number of even steps, as well as al sorts of shape manipulation. This was followed by improving upon warp tools, with puppet warp in photoshop and a mesh tool or tools in illustrator. Without these tools a digital program remains a "lite" program. The fact that Affinities 3 programs work together is no substitute for lack of functionality especially when the whole package costs $150.00 Quote

MaximEND Posted November 20, 2019 Posted November 20, 2019 It's been over 3 years since last response to this question. can we please get a response? This is a very important feature. literally the only one that keeps me using Illustrator over Designer. Is it actually going to be added? is it being held back to be sold in Designer 2.0? some-one-need-blend-tool, kyptanuy, tothika and 1 other 3 1 Quote
kyptanuy Posted November 23, 2019 Posted November 23, 2019 Totally agree with MaximEND. The fusion tool is a must. Quote
contempleon Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 I just started using affinity designer and I was looking for the Blend Tool, because it's such an important tool in my workflow. Found this topic and now I'm a bit sad that it's been requested for over 3 years and still not there :( ralisdaum and MarJai 1 1 Quote
