Questions about Stroke scaling in VS



  • I dealt once again with stroke scaling in VS, due to the thread from Boldline about it.
    .
    .
    Stroke scaling worked with my attempts only if "Scale Image Filters"
    and "Transformed Stroke" are selected
    .
    .
    Is that the way it is supposed to work, or is there another way ?
    -- (I thought for example only selecting "Transformed Stroke" would be enough)
    .
    .
    Especially unclear for me is the menu item "Scale Image Filters".
    in connection with a Stroke scaling.
    -- what is the reason for this ?
    -- what are the advantages ?

    Would be nice if someone could help me out with these questions


  • administrators

    @Subpath stroke transformation and image effect parameter scaling should work independently in VS, that is why there are two options.

    So "Scale Image Filters" should have no impact on the stroke scaling (unless there is a bug).

    Transformed Stroke set in the Layer/Object Options view applies to all objects inside the layer or group.

    then it seems i stumble across a bug
    will report it later with a video in "Bug Section"

    Transformed Stroke set in the Layer/Object Options view applies to all objects inside the layer or group.

    thanks for the Info



  • I am yet a bit unshure if this is really a bug, so i post
    that Video here.

    Forgot to mention in my previous Post here
    that in this case I did the stroke scaling via
    the menu in the Appearance Panel

    If I do the stroke scaling this way then it works only
    with "Scale Image Filters" set

    Here the video
