We need better vector, spline based tools IMO in Designer

Having a tire track on a ground driven by a spline for a example . Decades agp I loved Creative House Expression for so called "skeletal strokes" . Splines where you could make up to 10 randomlly alternating fragments smoothly deformed along a spline.

Also spline based scatterers with precise control how much spacing and offset objects are getting off the spline . It had been much more controllable than typical SD splatters.

It had been my first perfectly non destructive and procedural soft for textures in early 90th .

Still missing many of its features

Based on my Blender experience all we need probably is just two color gradients representing curve length factor and normal is 32 bit floating point as a curve outline color instead of just flat color value + outline width slider. Then it would be simple. Would be great to have such option in SVG node.

If I could do it in many vector soft , as a brush in Illustrator for example, except they are all just 8 bit why not in Designer itself ?

We could do lots of flow effects too if it would be available.

I agree, it has been a long standing desire to have the ability to place shapes along a curve in a material graph.
