Shear
The Shear command skews objects by deforming them parallel to one axis at a specified angle, transforming shapes like rectangles into parallelograms while maintaining the original length of lines parallel to the axis of deformation.
Key Steps:
Select the objects to shear.
Pick the origin point, which stays fixed during the transformation.
Choose a reference point to define the shear angle.
Set the shear angle.
Command-Line Options:
Copy: Creates a copy of the objects when shearing.
Rigid: Moves objects without deforming them if set to "Yes." If "No," objects are deformed during the transformation.
SubCrv: Allows selecting part of a curve as input for the shear operation.
These options provide flexibility and precision when skewing objects, allowing for controlled deformation and positioning.
