Repeater - Is there a way to distort the geometry but not the content ?
-
I'm trying to use repeater combined with mesh distort to place shapes on a distorted grid. My issue is that the shape effect transforms both the repeater geometry and its content.
I wonder if there is a way to apply the mesh distort only to the geometry (so as to displace the anchor of shapes) instead of both the geometry and the repeated shape (see fig 3 below).
I thought the following repeater option would do that but it seems to have no effect when clicked

@EricP There is an option for the shape effect called Rigid Shapes for this: https://share.cleanshot.com/2SMmvmT3

@VectorStyler thank you. That's exactly what I was looking for. So many hidden capabilities to discover.
what's the purpose of the repeater icon 'check to apply shape effects to the repeater content' ?
