Transform commands
Move, Scale, Rotate, Reflect, Shear, Transform Each and Transform Again support exact repeatable edits. Transform Again Copy repeats a previous transform onto a duplicate.
Object workflows cover the everyday production tasks that turn simple shapes into structured artwork: ordering, grouping, locking, hiding, blending, masking, cropping and converting.
Move, Scale, Rotate, Reflect, Shear, Transform Each and Transform Again support exact repeatable edits. Transform Again Copy repeats a previous transform onto a duplicate.
Bring To Front, Bring Forward, Send Backward and Send To Back control stacking order without disturbing object geometry.
Group related elements, ungroup them later, lock selections to prevent accidental edits, and hide objects temporarily while working inside dense illustrations.
Expand converts supported objects into simpler editable vectors. Expand Appearance bakes styled or generated appearances into explicit geometry.
Turns complex transparency interactions into flattened output when a workflow requires predictable compositing or print handoff.
Converts selected vector content into raster artwork inside the document when a bitmap representation is needed for effects, compatibility or final delivery.
Blend Make creates interpolated steps between objects. Blend Options controls the step count, and Release dissolves the blend back into editable objects.
Make Compound Path combines shapes so interior holes and overlapping contours behave as one fill. Release separates the structure again.
Unite, Minus Front, Minus Back, Intersect and Exclude combine shapes. Divide, Trim, Merge and Crop split or simplify overlaps for production-ready vectors.
Make a clipping mask to reveal artwork only through a selected shape, or release it to restore the underlying objects.
Create Illustrator-style trim marks around selected artwork for print preparation, then release them when they are no longer needed.
Adjust area text frames to their content, or fit a rectangle to the inked bounds of selected text for layout and label production.
Besides menu commands, SVG Editor includes a Pathfinder palette so boolean operations can be accessed as quick visual buttons during shape construction.
