signed distance outline curves

[jonidunno]

Hello,

I'm trying to create a signed distance with curves or a vector file. But I'm having trouble figuring out how to go from one shape to another... Essentially I'm trying to be able to blend from a complicated shape (in the center) to a simple rectangle on the exterior. attached is a simple scene file of what I've attempted so far.  

Thanks,

Thank you but not quite what I want... I'm looking to do this with curves and be able to animate them like thy where a ripple.

Here's a way to draw a 2D SDF-curve.

This is an awesome approach! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I had a very complex shape.

So I took it to where I needed it and piped it into the poly expand 2d instead of the blend. And made a tool from it.

 Appreciate your help and all the help from the community!
