Tip
Creating smooth color blends between paths can be difficult in certain
situations. For instance, if the lines intersect or the lines are too curved,
unexpected results can occur.
When you make a smooth color blend between objects, Illustrator automatically calculates
the number of intermediate steps necessary to create the transition between the objects. Once
you've applied a smooth color blend to objects, you can edit it. Next, you will edit the paths
that make up the blend.
