Affinity Designer Mini Tutorial - Consistent Gradients on Fills and Strokes
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 вер 2024
- This mini video tutorial from 2Dgameartguru.com is about gradients across fills and strokes. Affinity Designer has two settings for the fill tool. The context is either fill or stroke.
It gets a little tricky when you want a consistent fill across both [filled shapes and strokes]. This video shows you how to use swatches to store the gradient information and apply it from fill to strokes as well as using 'helper shapes' to align the gradients to match.

this video is filled with like 10 really good tricks. Im a 4fun user so this was awesome
I am so glad you enjoyed it... :)
Learned a bunch of new tricks from this video. Nice !
Thanks... That's what these little videos are for [or at least what I aim for ;) ]
Utterly useful.
Thanks! I am glad you think so.
now i gotta translate this to Inkscape :D
It's a little different as the fill would work both on the shapes and a tapered/ power stroke. It might be interesting to
give it a go today ;)
I recorded the approach in Inkscape v1.3 today... editing and narrating now.
@@2dgameartguru wow! can't wait to see the Magic!
@@2dgameartguru Nice, i just tried to do it, but wasnt very successful. I used Power Stroke for the tentacles, but then the gradient wouldnt align. I tried grouping the tentacles and applying the gradient to the group, but then the gradient behaves very unexpected and weird...
It does what its supposed to do when i convert the PowerStrokes to paths, but then the tentacles are no longer editable.
@@Espermaschine I got it working without problems with tapered and power strokes.
Beautiful!!!
Thanks! I am glad you liked it.
Cool
Glad you liked it, Gary.
@2dgameartguru crazy weekend. Finally had a chance to watch.... I'm taking UA-cam notes 😉👍😀
@@GSDesignStudioUK Go for it!
I am using Illustrator but I like to watch your videos, it's really helpful thanks bro
Nice... a tool is just a tool... and most approaches work in similar ways across most tools. [I used CorelDraw, Illustrator, Inkscape, and a few others in the past... at the moment Affinity Designer fits my workflow [and wallet] the best.]
@@2dgameartguru ohh really wonderful to know how to use all these programs, the fact that I work in print on demand so illustrator is enough for me for the moment, yes you are right bro you have to do what fills the pockets.
Useless for a Beginner, Great for someone who already knows what your doing.
I create these mini videos usually as answers to questions on social media. This one is no exception. I would disagree with the 'useless' but you are obviously the expert.
