First of all, couldn't Adobe just license the use of blends from Macromedia? Why Macromedia would want to force an issue that is likely to anger and alienate graphic designers, who I'm sure make up the lion's share of their customer base, is beyond me. Secondly, I have AI 10 and it currently does blends just fine. Does this mean that Adobe is going to release another update to disable my blend tool? Thirdly, can you provide the link to that article. I'd be interested to read the whole story. Thanks. -marcus
