    Brush issue when going around a path....circle shape distorting

    iBabs2 Community Member

      Hello,

       

      I have a circular object from Photoshop (stone..) that I need to go on a path in Illustrator.I realize I cannot do this with a raster object, at least from what I am reading, so I used the image trace function and then I can drag the circular piece into the brushes panel and create a scatter or pattern brush to go across my path.

       

      Problem is, if the path is an oval, the circles change shape and get distorted. How can I keep the circles from changing shape? Is there a way to do this? Or,is there a way to just bring in a Photoshop element and have it align across a path?

       

      Thanks
