Bending a Border Vector Along an Oval Shape

[robsandstrom]

I have a vector border - heart and flourish that I would like to bend along an oval plaque border. I can see how to bend text but not a vector. See picture.

Thank you,
Rob Sandstrom

The only way I have been able to do that task is to edit the nodes and create the contour by hand. It is a laborious endeavor. I will be happy to see what the membership has to offer as a solution.

Thank you. At the moment I wasn’t going to try to do all of the individual nodes. Hopefully someone has a more efficient idea.

You may be able to get a reasonable version of this using the new Tools->Deform selection tool.

Wahoo! You taught me a new trick! Thank you so very much.

Thank you. As you suggest not perfect, but this helps and gets me a reasonable result. Thank you so much. Rob Sandstrom
