      I've lost count of how many times where I thought I needed a special feature
      to solve a graphics problem, and Vectorstyler already had the solution built in.

      In this case i got paths from an extern app as outline Shapes.
      But i like to convert them in paths again.

      I found this simple and nice solution:
      Select your outline shapes go to:
      Menu > Effects > Outline > Center Line

      Here the Problem

      Here the Result of the Solution

          Wait; How does this work? This would be lifechanging if I understand this correctly. Can I use this to find the centreline of say a typographic glyph? Let's say, the letter Q or B. Can this find the centreline?

            This is not intended for use with fonts.
            It works "ok" once you have expand strokes
            and wish to obtain a path again.
