Mabel Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I'm currently learning Affinity Designer and saw a tutorial for making some icons in Adobe Illustrator. I decided to try making some to use and learn different tools and processes. In the tutorial they show how to make a shadow of the icon by moving to the side and using 'Blend Options' to create many steps so that it looks like a continuous shadow and not a duplicate shape behind (In the hyperlinked tutorial on Icon 1, Step 5). Just a shape behind, not continuous. Continuous. What I'm trying to achieve. So basically, I am asking to see what is the best way to achieve this in Affinity designer? Is there a similar feature available to that in Illustrator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted February 23, 2017 Staff Share Posted February 23, 2017 Hi Mabel, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Currently there's no Blend Tool/functionality in Designer, however we do have a replicate/blend tool on Designer's roadmap. You can duplicate the shadow object using Power Duplicate. Check this video tutorial on how to use it.
