Transform/rotate after blending, weird behaviour or crashes VS
-
I make a simple blend of circles. I align these along a quarter of a circle & convert all these objects to curves. I remove the path & then apply a transform (here, a rotation) with options by default.
Apply to copy and 1 copy : it is fine.
If I increase the numbers of copies:
or VS crashes.
-
@PatrickM In VS, the blend consists of 3 objects (source, blend and target).
It is better to group these 3 before transforming, or applying shape effects.I added these issues to the backlog, these are bugs.
-
@VectorStyler Grouping the items does not help. Bugs they are.
here with the move effect:You should have received three crash reports related to these issues. hope it will be of help. I really like combining these effects to make patterns and seamless patterns for book chapters I'm working on.
Do you need the file or did you reproduce these bugs ?

Yes, please send me a file.
-
@VectorStyler The file has been sent
-
@VectorStyler Just wondering, I did a blend between circles and therefore I should expect only circles as before. But I get this and I don't know why since I did as usual:
-
@PatrickM I know if you record the steps you make with a video of the screen and if you save the file and send it over to @VectorStyler , those things help expedite the fixes
-
@PatrickM
all fine here and no problem
VS 1.1065
-
@PatrickM It looks like one of the two circles is flipped horizontally.
Check this value here in the Transform panel and if it has a minus, delete it:
-
@PatrickM Could be that they were scaled or rotated? What is the node editor showing when the start / end is selected?
Send me the file with that blend, I will try to figure out what could cause this.

like @b77 wrote, it looks here like @PatrickM Result
if a Circle was horizontally flipped in my Test
the Circle on the right side.rotate a circle looks different
-
@VectorStyler It seems to have been a temporary issue just after the installation of v.065.
@b77 & @Subpath It was indeed that unintended mirroring problem. I haven't managed to reproduce it yet and everything is as expected now.
@Boldline This is what I usually do and will do if I reproduce the problem.
Thanks to all!
-
@VectorStyler It is much better with v.065 ; no crash so far and expected pattern design.
Well, it is only a quick test and it is virtually nothing of interest as pattern but to show you that we can start to get patterns:- with "copy",
- with "clone" however, I've got an interesting pattern but totally unexpected with respect to colours; I've just changed one colour (blue) of the gradient & I've got this multicoloured design
-
@Pat This issue should be fixed in build 1.1.072
-
@VectorStyler There are still some issues with the "clone" feature of blended objects (0.075 ; W10 & W11).

@Pat email me an example where this occurs
-
@VectorStyler You can test on all the files I sent you including the one from last week. Just use the Object-Transform-Transform/Rotate feature(s) with 'clone' and you will finally get the issues. Just compare with 'Copy' where all the object changes are done correctly. Thanks.
