Distribute objects along a path


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I would like to distribute objects (stars) along a path and by the way resize them (getting progressively bigger or smaller). 

Here is the tutorial to do this in photoshop but how can I do it in Affinity designer ?

Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, @md50. :)

We can’t distribute objects along a path yet. The best you can do at the moment is to find a font which includes the right kind of stars so that you can add them as text on a path; to resize them or adjust the spacing you could simply change the font size or the tracking value.

You can torture yourself with time consuming work arounds as life goes by or get help from fx Xara Designer:

  • Not an Affinity user og forum user anymore. The software continued to disappoint and not deliver.
