Perform multiple autonomous tasks as one step
-
@b77 essentially - I used a similar font and expanded it and then moved around the nodes to get them to where they were in the original source letters. I don't think there's currently an ability in VS or another vector program that can do this - but I don't see why it could not eventually happen
-
@Boldline If you want to make objects of the same height (or width) use the Align Size options in the Alignment panel:

@vectoradmin I tried to solve this with an action that scales the object vertically at a set size in pt, but it looks like when you run it on other shapes it just applies a percentage-based scaling.

Use the Align Size options in the Alignment panel:Awesome!
-
@vectoradmin Thanks! Is it possible such an operation with proportion lock?
Sometimes I need to scale the words list this way so that they are all the same width.

Not possible at this time, added this to the backlog as a feature. It is a small thing to add.
-
@vectoradmin The first and fifth button under 'Align Size' will resize the object to the width or height of the top object.
However their tooltips explain what they do as 'Resizing to the width/height of the reference object'.
Why not use 'top object' instead?
-
@vectoradmin Also: because sometimes you don't know which is the top object (even if it overlaps you are not sure), maybe highlight it somehow (dashed light blue contour) when hovering any of these two buttons.
-
@b77 Added these to the backlog

@encart Proportional lock for resizing using the Alignment panel Align Size options is available in the panel menu.
