      @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.

          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.).

              @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" ☺

                "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.

                        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 ☺

                          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:

                              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):

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

                                  0_1673881226667_Capture.JPG

                                  @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.

                                    Yes, but first the pattern tile must define those colors.
                                    Basically any style used inside the pattern tile (content) can have an override selected using the Style Overrides from the pattern menu.

                                    So use color styles inside the pattern content, then define the pattern content as a "Style" (not a "preset").

                                        I really like this path/design. But I simply do not understand how you created this. Could you possibly outline the steps you used to create it. Thanks,

                                          @STEVED PAT,
                                          I was refering to the design in you post:
                                          "Testing .73 & rendering in W10/11 is much better.

                                          Thanks, steve

                                            @STEVED Hi Steve,
                                            The starting scheme is indeed one rectangle which is a parametric shape that can be modified in VS using the 'Node tool' (bending of each side).

                                            0_1673975888133_Capture.JPG

                                            Then, the object is copied (once or several times) & its/their size(s) adjusted as wanted. The blending of the (two) shapes and the rotation (Oject--> Transform--> rotation) of copies do the overall design.
