Creating two-way blends

Blending between two blends
normally creates a multistage blend. However, by turning each of the blends into a group, you can create two-ways blends as shown.

To create a two-way blend

1. Create two normal blends between two sets of objects (see Blending objects).

2. Select one of the blends (see Selecting objects).

3. From the Arrange menu, choose Group. This creates a group
containing a single blend.

4. Do the same with the second blend.

5. Blend between the two groups.

Tip

You can use select inside
(see Selecting objects in objects) to access either grouped blend object and change it as a blend (for example number of steps, etc.).
