  @Boldline The problem with brushes is that the content of the brush cannot be cut. Cutting and merging the width profile can be done (added this to the backlog), but the brush content from one of the shapes will be stretched out on the resulting shape if the Merge option in the context panel is checked.

  @vectoradmin I can also duplicate the item with Duplicate and make changes and adjustments. It's not cool. Could you please re-examine? By the way, I mainly make the Styles palette resident and control Style. I don't use Character or Document Styles much.

  @Arde Not possible to have limited steps. Object blends can be used for fixed step color transitions. Would such a feature be useful otherwise? EDIT: it is not difficult to add such a feature.

  @Petar_MK @Kyriakos Doesn't VS already have some bitmap halftone kind of function built in already? I agree with @vectoradmin that it's probably important to not stray too far from keeping the application a vector-based focus. That said, the ability to do a few things in raster is helpful - I need to play with it more, but the halftone bitmap abilities already inside VS are awesome

  @encart This is a known open issue. The problem occurs at the cleanup phase after offsetting. There are a number of stroke and offset bugs related to this. It will be fixed, but it is a challenging issue

  @fde101 said in Use the word Hairline rather than 0.0 pt in Stroke display field: In the digital world, a "true" hairline is defined as the smallest width line capable of being produced on a given output device, this being exactly 1 pixel wide for the most part. It is not a fixed literal width but rather something that changes depending on what the image is being displayed or printed on, thus why various applications display it as "Hairline" - there is not an actual width to be displayed numerically. @fde101 Yep, you nailed it. It's the industry standard nomenclature, that's why I prefer/suggest it be used in VectorStyler.

  @encart Try using Snap To Points when drawing, this will align the points of the rectangles to the triangle corners. Also: shape builder has this known issue of not always handling well sides that are exactly touching. A little bit of overlap helps there,

  @vectoradmin I don't think these should be visible when the shape is procedural(?) or the text is still editable. Once it's been converted to curves, yes, absolutely. But not when it's in its special editable form, I would say. Enabling this setting by default would be great if the above conditions would be met — it would serve as a subtle hint that the shape or text is converted to curves.

  @b77 I agree with your solution. It is the most intuitive and simple. I proposed an additional key because I do not know how big a problem the redesign of this mechanism will be. Especially considering the amount of bindings that are under the hood.

  @encart If I understand correctly, tracking works, but kerning does not? What is the font name used? kerning (Metric mode) requires that the font defines the kerning pair tables.
