Blend: Procedure EazyDraw for macOS palette controls

The lower portion of the Blend palette is controls the overall scope of the blend interval parameters and how blend graphics are ordered.

If you choose All for the scope parameter, only the top set of interval parameters are enabled. Otherwise both adjacent sets of parameters are enabled to provide convenient access to both intervals and components adjacent to the focus graphic blend component.

The Scope parameter has two selections, Individual or All. If All is chosen, the interval parameters such as Steps are the same for all intervals. The Individual selection allows individual specification. It is sometimes convenient to get the appearance close by using All, avoiding the need to step across all intervals and make adjustments. Then change to individual control and fix up the appearance of just a few intervals.

The Order popup menu provides specification for the determination of the sequence ordering of the graphic components of the Blend. The method chosen determines which components will be adjacent blend pairs, and which will be above and behind in the Painting order of the Blend. The choice of order may significantly alter the appearance of the blend.

EazyDraw Help Pages example

Specific order can always be accomplished by careful adjustment of the painting order of each component graphic before the Blend group is formed. The other ordering selections sometimes provide a convenience shortcut to attain a desired appearance.

If you edit the shape of individual components of the group, the ordering might change. This can cause big "Jumps" in the appearance of the group. Taking note of the selected ordering method and the relative positions of the graphics will indicate the cause of the jumps.
