If you&rsquo;re not already familiar with the shape processor, it&rsquo;s a neat ability Acorn has to take shapes on vector layers and pipe them through a series of actions, similar to how Automator or Acorn&rsquo;s bitmap filters work. Only instead of working on pixels, the processors will alter the shapes by scaling them or moving them around, or changing colors or blend modes. There&rsquo;s even a processor which will generate shapes for you&mdash;so if you want your canvas to fill up with hundreds of stars, you can do that.<\/p>\n<p>Acorn 6.6 adds new processors which let you set the stroke, fill, and blend mode of your processed shapes.
