Converting blends to shapes
You can convert a blend into a group containing all the blend steps. Each step is converted to a simple shape and can be edited. Note that after converting a blend to shapes, you cannot use the Blend Tool to edit it as the object is no longer a blend.
To convert a blend to shapes
1. Select the blend (see Selecting objects).
2. From the Arrange menu, choose Convert to Editable Shapes.
Tip
To convert a blend quickly, right-click on the blend to open the pop-up menu and choose Convert To Editable Shapes.
