Changing the blend attribute profile
After creating a blend you can change how the attributes (such as transparency, colors or line thickness) change. You might want a regular rate of change or a more pronounced change towards one end or the center.
To change the attribute profile
1. Create the blend - see Blending objects.
2. In the Blend Tool click Attribute profile. This opens the profile dialog box.
3. You either select a predefined profile from the drop-down list or drag the sliders to create a custom profile. The top option in the drop-down list (the straight line) creates a regular rate of change.
When creating a custom profile:
Move the top slider towards:
-1 for more change at the end of the transition than at the start.
+1 for more change at the start.
Move the bottom slider towards:
-1 for more change at the start and end than in the center.
+1 for more change in the center.
Note
The profile dialog box affects all attributes of the objects.
