@VectorStyler I will try

@VectorStyler Thank you. I appreciate it. It works, 'saving' and 'save-as'.

@Raaskot said in How do I drag a straight segment without bending it?: @VectorStyler Just to confirm: Is there no VS-tool (other that A or V + modifier), where you click a segment and the select the adjecent nodes and hence do the operation? No such feature. You have to select the nodes

@EricP the tutorial is posted

@Kumr There is an image effect for Inner Shadow for now.

@EricP Thank you. Yes it looks nice and its realtive easy to do. I just had to relocate some stroke gradients Yes, it looks nice and is relatively easy to create. I just had to reposition some of the gradients a bit. I did this with separate strokes that weren't combined or grouped. If you select all the strokes and then apply a gradient (see the method in the link) over them, the gradients will be in slightly different positions. Ultimately, I actually liked the slightly more chaotic result here even better. Btw i used a concentric gradient

@VectorStyler The problem occurred when creating a new repeater with options. Editing an existing repeater worked fine.

@Clippy-notes Here another Pattern Brush made via a Blend. One could use the Intertwine Feature on it [image: 1773776885491-pattern-brush-blend.png]

@Clippy-notes I will try to fix this

@Clippy-notes thank you for this great tutorial. Halftone feature is so deep, there is no end to what you can you do with it. I liked your stippling setup I will try to replicate

@Clippy-notes ... quickly set the stroke color using a simple Alt-click directly from the color palette .... didnt know that But you could also just use the right Mouse Button to do that, there is no need to press an addional key. Left Mouse Button for fill color. Right Mouse Button for Stroke color

Over the past few days, I combined the features I suggested in separate posts into a short GIF. https://imgur.com/a/YKifKbA

@VectorStyler Intelligent Line to Curve Conversion I will add this to the backlog. Can you send me a few before / after examples for this? Here is a short GIF showing the behavior. It allows moving straight segments without creating curves, preventing accidental distortion. Curves are only introduced intentionally using Alt. This behavior is currently possible by selecting multiple nodes, but the goal here is to allow direct segment selection and manipulation with a single click. Especially when shapes overlap, selecting the correct nodes can be difficult. With this behavior, you can directly select the segment and make adjustments more easily. https://imgur.com/a/hfikSNx
