Intertwine Effect: Where is it?
-
@Daniel Send me that VS file
-
in the meantime i found a way to create (fake) gaps with the Intertwine Effect.
Create your Stroke, Expand that Stroke and give it a white outline
now you could use the the Intertwine Effect to fake gaps.

-
@Subpath: This too failed eventually. Getting the gaps to follow the direction of the path was difficult. I did however manually complete the project.

It's for an AI-based security firm. The central pentagon stands for the SOC, the security operations centre. The circles on the outer perimeter represent the constant social listening of the AI engine. The interlocking lines show unending stream of data. The filled blue hexagons represent co-ordination and continuous monitoring. Sort of like a beehive.
Wanted to share because the client was chuffed and I was very excited.

@Daniel This might be solvable with some new features in the Intertwine tool.
First I will try to fix the stroke crossing gap problem, but that cannot solve this case with multiple objects
-
@VectorStyler; Thank you!
By the way, I created a pattern out of the logo. It is very Arabesque. But still, a great looking pattern.

@Daniel
I can't find "Intertwine" anywhere. Is there a search function for menu items, tools or operations?
Here is what I see under Styles:
-
@ThatMikeGuy "Intertwine" between the "Halftone" and "Drop Shadow" menus (around the middle).
You need to select some objects to activate the menu
-
The object in your pic seems to be a single stroke ?
For single stroke you have to use the "Crossing Gap"
Shape effect, you find it under Outline shape effectsthe interwine effect needs at least two Objects
the intertwine tool is here, see pic
