WIP - Testing Blending: not yet a tutorial but soon for beginners

I personally find that these VS features allow to express a lot of different (creative) ideas.

I can only agree with that.

Just a very quick one to display another way of using VS features.

B-Vs-V

One very last one to show the efficiency of VS ; I have used the 'text' tool, the transform feature, the blend tool (& many options), rotation of a duplicated and mirrored original object... & I tested the colour changes this time ( effect --> adjust colour --> invert colour ; effect --> replace colour --> adjust colour).

VS is really powerful and a pleasure to use. But work is calling and I'll try to stop using VS for now I might have an issue with the 'replace colour' feature : I only see the preview for a few seconds & after no way to get it again. I have to use it further before posting a possible bug (but no time now).

@Pat

nice creations
it seems to me that you are now another user
addicted to the possibilities of VectorStyler

and the ideas will never stop bubbling up

I'm impressed! Very creative and inspiring!

I'd love to see a tutorial on this!

@Subpath Thank you but it's simply to test with a concrete case some functionalities of VS... even if I have an idea which will exploit these various useless graphic "manipulations"

Indeed, VS is very very addictive. I'm so glad to have some features back without subscribing to A*%!e for full CC.

If @VectorStyler decides to add some features for desktop publishing, those apps will be an amazing/striking duo... and then an incredible trio with photo editing in the long term

@Harry Thank you (making these is just a way to learn VS)
Oh, ok for the tutorial but I just need to feel a little more confident, go through the different options and I'll get to it.

B-Vs-V

This is not at all what I wanted to get but as I have some issues with some features, I play with the multiple possibilities of VS. It looks simple but it's full of little steps.
It would look good for a poster. This will be my next challenge, to make a layout in VS for a poster for a hypothetical event (with grids, etc.).

@Pat

this one looks so cool
well done

B-Vs-V

@Subpath Thank you. Can be modified endlessly. This is the V of VS of course. I'll have to spend some time on the "S"

Subpath

@Pat

"Can be modified endlessly..." thats so very true

I like the filigree design and the extra dimension
with the objects in the background.
The gradient looks nice as well.

B-Vs-V

... endlessly...

Your experiments are really interesting

B-Vs-V

@Devil-Dinosaur Thank you. I'll come back with other different objects/shapes.

B-Vs-V

Following @Subpath tips in "Converting a tutorial from Illustrator (Blend Function) to VectorStyler", one can have interesting and complex abstract shapes. Nothing fancy below but one need to select the nodes and not the object, otherwise, one can't get this effect. Thanks @Subpath

Subpath

@Pat

nice design

thanks, like to experiment myself
and VS is a pretty good Tool for that
as you know

btw here are some inspirations from me
where i also used Clones

Testing .73 & rendering in W10/11 is much better.
Just the transformation of one rectangle:

B-Vs-V

This tutorial by @Subpath gave me the idea to test the pattern creation from this object:

Here the pattern, nothing extraordinary but very easy to make in VS (described in the documentation):

Subpath

@Pat

cool pattern
nice to see that the tutorial was inspirational
I will do a "How to create seamless Pattern for Pattern Fill"
Tutorial next.

We can get very interesting abstract patterns for eventual backgrounds by changing the type (triangular, rhomboid):

@VectorStyler ... but I would like to know if it is possible to change the colours of the pattern once the object has been defined as tile.
