Moksh Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hello Am absolutely a newbie and had couple questions : 1. Here's a youtube tutorial on 3D Revolve effect and pattern warp/layer on a Circle shape done in illustrator. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w17oOuts5Og Can this be achieved in Designer or Photo ? 2. Is there a blend mode equivalent to Illustrator - where one can multiply no of shapes in vertical or horizontal direction - like duplicating shapes to avoid cut paste x no of times ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdenby Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 AD does not do 2D to 3D. AD does not have a shape blend command at this point. It does have a "power duplicated" that will repeatedly move, scale and rotate vector objects. If the objects are combined, a gradient of image can be used to fill all of them.

Could you please point me towards a tutorial/info to what you mean in the second point "Power Duplicated" ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqyNCFgLX8Q thanks - am still waiting for a solution - been looking through the forum and it seems - it's called blend/distort replicate tool - hopefully to be included in the next update...

Madame Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Would it by any chance be called replicate/blend? Then it's on the roadmap.

gdenby Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Thank you - I was however also looking at how to Like you mentioned - "If the objects are combined, a gradient of image can be used to fill all of them." The help section doesn't elaborate much on this. It was something I stumbled across, and it was a little surprising. When a number of objects are joined by a boolean combine, the fill tool will act on all the once separate shapes. For instance, a row of rectangles could have a gradient or bit map added. The surprising thing (to me) is if the combine is self divided, the fill portions of the fill that were in them when combined stay with the discreet parts. For instance, make an array of rectangles, combine, and fill w. a bitmap picture. The divide, and the image will be broken into the rectangles, and moved around as you like. And yes, many people would like a full blend tool.

Madame Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Yes, and you can't just paste the links, you have to use the URL "box" to get it to show. (I find the youtube-address by using the quote option on the post.)The video plugin from Vimeo just shows as a thumbnail in my browser (Chrome). I have to use the "quote post" option and paste the address in the browser window to get to the video in Vimeo. But this is a digression, I didn't mean to hijack the thread.
