Modify the appearance of an object by using brushes

  • Artigo

You can change the appearance of the objects that you draw on the artboard by applying a brush and then modifying the Fill, Stroke, and OpacityMask properties of the brush.

Brushes appear in the Brush category of the Properties panel. The Fill property refers to the appearance of the inside of the rectangle object. The Stroke property refers to the border around the rectangle, and the OpacityMask property can be used to make part of the rectangle object transparent. The properties displayed in the Brush category change depending on the type of object selected.

To modify the fill of a rectangle

    You can add other gradient stops by clicking the gradient bar. You can also change from a linear gradient JJ170221.bd5eefed-9628-4363-be5d-29bfb5962175(pt-br,VS.110).png to a radial gradient JJ170221.4279aa9a-15c2-4435-9937-6848afc38618(pt-br,VS.110).png by clicking the buttons under the gradient bar.

    To remove gradient stops, drag them off the gradient bar.

    DicaDica

    When Gradient brush is selected, the Color eyedropper in the color Editor becomes a Gradient eyedropper Ícone de conta-gotas gradiente. You can drag the Gradient eyedropper over an existing gradient, either inside Expression Blend or on the desktop, to apply the gradient to the existing object.

To modify a gradient applied to a rectangle

  1. With the Fill, Stroke, or OpacityMask property of the rectangle object still selected, select Gradient JJ170221.8dc54a0d-02cc-44cd-b802-5a78309f4503(pt-br,VS.110).png in the Tools panel.

    DicaDica

    With the object selected on the artboard, press G to select the Gradient tool.

    A blue arrow appears on the artboard showing the direction of the gradient brush and its endpoints.

    ObservaçãoObservação

    If you do not see a blue arrow, you might not have the rectangle object selected, or you might not have a brush property selected. The Gradient tool will only appear if a gradient brush is selected.

  2. Use your mouse to move the endpoints of the blue arrow to modify the gradient. You can lengthen or shorten the arrow, rotate the arrow, or move the center point of the arrow to modify the gradient.

  3. In the Properties panel, under Brushes, click the gradient bar to add more gradient stops and change their colors. You can also click the blue arrow on the artboard to add gradient stops or double-click to edit the gradient.

To transform a brush applied to an object

    With the object selected on the artboard, press B to select the Brush Transform tool.

    A blue arrow adorner appears around the rectangle on the artboard.

  2. With the Brush Transform tool selected, do one or more of the following:

    • To move a brush, drag anywhere inside the object. This corresponds to the Translate tab on the RelativeTransform box in the Properties panel.

    • To rotate a brush, put your pointer outside any corner of the bounding outline around the object and drag when your pointer changes to a rotation handle JJ170221.888cbf6b-c442-424d-977d-61d942703c4a(pt-br,VS.110).png. This corresponds to the Rotate tab on the RelativeTransform box in the Properties panel.

    • To skew a brush, put your pointer outside a side handle and drag when your pointer changes to skew handles JJ170221.2be41f49-8a61-4966-bf08-598f4253b610(pt-br,VS.110).png. This corresponds to the Skew tab on the RelativeTransform box in the Properties panel.
