Domvel Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 This would be nice. Affinity Designer should have this feature to create a flat long shadow shape or effect to drop this shadow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuttyjoe Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Coreldraw added this specific feature in one of the last 2 releases, but Illustrator does not yet have it. You need to use object blending to get this effect in Illustrator. It's a workaround. But yes, it would be cool if this feature ever came to Affinity Designer. The more features, the merrier.

But wouldn't ya know, there is an inexpensive plugin for long shadows... Isn't a plugin system great when an application doesn't provide X features? (Serif...hint, hint.)

Kuttyjoe Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 I looked this plugin up and tried to see if I could buy it, but the link was broken. But yeah, there are a lot of great scripts and plugins for Illustrator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not always what an application can do natively but how can it be extended via add-ons or scripting that may be a determining costing factor.
