I'm rebuilding the graphic on the left as the graphic on the right in Expression Blend.
The gradient brushes are great for creating reflection effects but how do I now trim the button on the right now so that it cuts off the rest of the reflective circle?
I can rotate, scale, skew, recenter, and flip but I can't find trim or crop.
And when I select both the top and the bottom to do "combine/intersect" all options are greyed out when I select "combine".
Is trimming the way I want to here possible in Expression Blend or I am reaching the limits of what the underlying XAML could represent?
Or is there an easier way to achieve the graphic on the left?
Have you tried using a clipping path?
