MichaelMeeuwissen Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 When I draw a circle 100px , duplicate him and resize him to 110px then do a power duplicate . I expect the next circle would be 120px the next 130px and so on , but that’s not the case . This happens on the iPad and Mac version 93CD649F-F819-4D3E-9267-280DBD91AA77.MP4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 This has been much discussed in other threads. At present we are stuck with a geometric progression, with no possibility to opt for an arithmetic one (even if you use an expression such as +=10, which you might reasonably expect not to be converted into a percentage).

Staff Sean P Posted July 22, 2019 Staff Share Posted July 22, 2019 Hi MichaelMeeuwissen, As been mentioned this is something already with development, however I've passed your comments on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_krkn Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I would also like to see this fixed in the Desktop version, or have an option between relative and absolute when it comes to power duplicating. I can't think why relative percentages is the default anyway. It's not a bad effect, but if I want to create concentric shapes spaced evenly apart (which is what I'm trying to do now - duplicating circles, each one 8px larger than previous), it would be possible to do a dozen shapes in a few seconds. As it is now, I have to duplicate, then manually change the size in the Transform panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigspud Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 My best workaround is to draw a line of the absolute increment and power duplicate that. then with circles and snapping on, laying them out is still pretty quick. faster than the properties panel for each one! A shitty practice left over from the CAD world of the 90's.. Hope that makes sense? But this issue has been around for years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
