In this PowerPoint how-to video, Nolan Haims shows off Merge Shapes, one of the program’s most powerful tools. First, he demonstrates each of the tool’s five core functions: Union, Combine, Fragment, Intersect, and Subtract. Finally, Nolan shows how to apply these tools to live text and raster images.
This is just a taste of the great content you’ll learn in Nolan’s upcoming session at CreativePro Week, being held in Nashville June 29–July 3. See the agenda and sign up now.
