Mastering Blending Objects in CorelDRAW

Blending Objects

Learn how you can master blending objects using the blend tool in CorelDRAW.

The blend tool allows you to blend any two objects. It will blend the shapes, sizes, as well as the colors of those objects. You can create straight-line blends, compound blends, and blends along a path. Learn how you can create beautiful patterns using the blend tool.

The tutorial walks you through every aspect of the blend feature. It shows you how to select the starting and ending objects of a blend. Detailed instructions show how two objects of different shapes, sizes and colours alter their properties along every stage of the blend. Thus, allowing one object to perfectly transform into the shape, colour and size of the second object in the blend.  It shows how to manipulate the blended shapes by altering the size and colour acceleration options. You will learn how to fit a blend to a path. And how to make sure that the blend covers the entire path, from start to end. It walks you through the steps to detach a blend from a path, and break a blend group apart. This will allow you to separate each shape that formed the blend.

You will also learn how to map nodes, and create and manipulate splits in a blend. Create a beautiful blend with continuous fountain fill. By adding a split to a blend, you can change the colour of the splitting line to add another colour to the fountain fill.

Create Graphics Like a Pro!

It shows you how easy it is to create a 3-D object using the blend tool. Learn how to create patterns using two straight lines, or two curved lines. Use the shape tool to alter and adjust the shapes of the starting and ending objects to fine tune the patterns you create. You will be able to create different shapes and patterns by manipulating the blend rotation angle, size and colour accelerations, the number of object blend steps, and the blend colour direction.

It then demonstrates how two shapes can be used to blend and create amazing patterns. This can be achieved by simply manipulating various features. Features such as the blend direction angle and the angle of rotation of one of the objects. Other features such as the horizontal and vertical mirroring of an object that is part of the blend. The possibilities are only limited by one’s imagination.

Have fun with this amazing tool.
