An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment cg commentedIf you compare the shape builder tool in Illustrator to the basic boolean operators in XD (or even the basic boolean operators in Illustrator), you will see that it's much easier to create more complex shapes using the shape builder. With the shape builder I can overlap a lot of different shapes to create a particular shape and then combine the specific pieces that I want together in one pass. The basic boolean operators do not let me do this, which means that there are some shapes or logos that I can't really create (or easily create) in XD.

Thanks for the reminder about being able to go into a group to resize and move things around. That does help. Here's a quick example of where the shape builder seems to be easier to use.

I realize that there may be a way to easily do this with the boolean operators and perhaps I'm just not aware. Thanks!
