rubs Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 It seems I can't subtract the red object from the black object to get the result on the right. I tried dividing and re-combining, then changed the fill modes, but the result was always different from what was intended. For previous experience with other vector software and 3D modelers, I guess an option to reverse the node order of individual segments would solve the problem, but I can't be sure. I also get similar problems when trying to export icons as fonts (using Fontello and other tools). Subtract bug.afdesign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted May 2, 2018 Staff Share Posted May 2, 2018 There's no need to use the Expand Stroke command. Just Subtract the red object from the black, then Divide, delete the filled triangle on top and add all pieces again.

rubs Posted May 3, 2018 Author Share Posted May 3, 2018 Thank you for the workaround, it's simple enough. Now, shouldn't AD subtract the objects correctly anyway? I've exported the objects as a PDF and Xara Designer subtracted the objects just as expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
