      @Boldline Stroke width profiles should blend. Could this be a refresh issue?
      I tried it here and it seems to be working fine for different width profiles.

        @vectoradmin I saw the new build and upgraded to 26 and tried again, but it's not doing what I expected. Here is the video and the file:

              no, made a similar Stroke like yours.
              but will also try your file now, just a moment 🙂

                @Subpath ok thanks - the reason I ask is because with those strokes, I had used the path width tool and that was where it seemed to give me issues trying to blend it properly afterward

                  first observation
                  the two strokes seems some how connected
                  if i hover over the left one both get selected

                  • no regluar blend visible

                  as i copy and paste both the connection seems gone
                  also no regular blend, and if i expand the blend
                  i get only lines

                  also no regular blend i copy the your strokes to new file

                  Here the video
                  attemp with your file
                  in the video the left one is already blended
                  and expanded

                    This is not happening with the strokes here - they are not grouped or connected

                      yes there is no group an i also found no combine

                      here is the video where i restarted VS
                      and only load your file, seems sometimes
                      connected and other not
                      just your file

                        @Subpath thanks for checking that - it may just be an odd obscure situation that @vectoradmin can figure out why it is occurring that way..

                          @Subpath They are connected because they form a blend object already. But since they are so close to each other, the first object is more difficult to select separately (hover the cursor on its left and click).

                            @Boldline Indeed this seems to be a bug — if you get rid of the brush contour of both red lines the interpolation works.

                                @Boldline I think the issue is that these two shapes contain brushes, and it seems that the brush content is not blended.
