• Illustrator cc 2014 adds anchor points to the guides

  What is happening with the Illustrator CC 2014! I placed a guide for where to add a cliked of anchor point on the Add anchor point tool, but when I select the object I want to add the anchor point that adds an anchor point to the guide! so I blocked the thinking guide that would solve the problem, that it is then for me a poster that says attention please use on a segment of the path it still considers that the guide is a path!

  TIF,

  Are you sure that you select the path, not the guid?

  (1) close Illy and open again.

  (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

• I can edit the Bézier handles symmetrically with Anchor Point tool?

  In CC when using the pen tool on PC, I like the way that you press Alt and Anchor Point tool allows to modify Anchor Points and paths on the fly. But to convert an anchor point in the curve, the Bézier handles soar symmetrically compared to start but after letting go, I can only go back and modify the handles independently using this tool who loses the symmetry and therefore the sweetness in the anchor point

  Is it possible to edit the Bézier handles symmetrically using this tool after the initial conversion of the corner anchor to smooth?

  Thank you

  N °

  If you want to change the handles symmetrically, so that they are uninterrupted - direct face-to-face and the same length, you have to start over - drag - click on the anchor with the anchor Point tool.

  I don't think you should use the Alt key

  After that, assuming that both handles are uninterrupted, you can click drag with the direct Selection (white arrow) tool on the end of handles and the curve will remain smooth as handles to remain intact.

  so in short, use the direct Selection tool (press and hold Ctrl), if you want to change unilaterally, without breaking the 2 handles.

  Can be useful for checking-

• New: pressing alt while using the anchor point tool

  Hello

  
  

  New feature does not work at my side == > pressing alt while using th anchor point tool e would match the handles again by dragging a handle. But if I press alt or if I do not press on it, it does not change the operation of my anchor point tool or handles. When I press alt, I see the apearing signs next to my cursor and that's it. Anyone an idea what could be the problem?

  
  

  Thank you for your help.

• The tolerance setting works for the "Convert anchor point tool"? Are there other ways?

  Hello
  I wonder if the setting "tolerance"in the preferences only works for the arrow tools?» I put it to 8 pixels and it seems OK for these tools, but when I use the tool 'Convert Anchor' point it is incredible difficult to hit a point for me. It seems that I have to hit a point exactly one pixel, which is hard with a screen high resolution.
  My PC keeps beeping all the time and I'm getting crazy on this subject...
  It seems that the framework of tolerance doesn't work here, I'm right? There are other parameters that could help me to work with this tool?

  Sorry if this is the kind of a beginner question, I have much experience with PS and LR, but not so much with Illustrator (and I couldn't find anything useful in the internet).

  Thank you

  I agree, it is sometimes difficult to click on the sweet spot. Here are 3 proposals:

  1. Pay attention to the cursor icon. This will change when you are on a point anchor or direction.
  2. Try to turn on 'bearings commented. They can be a nuisance, but they are sometimes useful.
  3. Use the button "convert" on the Options bar. They may take a little longer but they are full-proof, moreover, you can convert or remove several selected points simultaneously using this method.

  

• Default anchor point has changed to the lower left corner of the layer?

  Whenever I have add a new text layer, the anchor point is automatically set on the lower left corner of the layer, and I find it very annoying to have to focus each time, and that it possibly is not perfectly in the center of the text, moreover, whenever I create a form with SHIFT-command that it revolves around its own anchor while he used to focus around the anchor in the Middle of the composition. I don't know what I did but it happened all of a sudden, and I don't know how to change it back .

  Thank you

  Focus you the text layer by resetting the position of the text layer in the primary processing Panel. Text animations give you a secondary position and anchor point controls. The text layer must have a position of half the width of the model and half the height of the model.

  Once you are there you center text horizontally around the anchor using the paragraph Panel. Make sure that you have first line or paragraph compensation applied.

  The last step is to visually Center the text vertically by adjusting the vertical offset in the character Panel. The value of the offset depends on the size of the font, the characters you use, font style and what your said eye is centered. Most of the time, you want a little more space at the bottom of the frame as above because we are used to see things sitting on a foundation. It's the same principle while watching a photo for framing.

  These are the same exact steps for the type definition in any application which allows you to adjust the formatting of the type. Even in MS Word, Illustrator, Photoshop, even the same using CSS rules when creating a web page.

  When I am using smart guides and want to align themselves with a point, it hits somewhere around 0.1 points more to the point...

  Tobias,

  The use of rectangles appear to exclude to align on the pixel grid as a cause for a stranger (or no) reason unless it applies to some of the objects (easy to see whether it is selected (in the Transform palette) when you select different objects).

  Unless someone comes up with a more luminous suggestion, try looking at the following general list of things, try when there is a strange problem which is not limited to a specific file (you tried/made some of them already). 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically preferences might be corrupt); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

• How to draw a line (with the line segment tool) then draw another line, from those previous anchor point. When I try immediately draw another line on the other anchor lines it try to turn instead.

  I'm following a course of basic fundamental illustrator on Lynda. The video of "draw straight lines" is troubling me. They draw a line with the line segment and then draw another line coming out the anchor point at an angle.

  Here's where it is troubling me - when I try to drag a line to the anchor point trying to transform the first line, I drew. (the line cursor turns into a selection tool) I can't draw another line connecting the first.

  Advice would be great because it's driving crazy me.

  See you soon,.
  Kyle

  Yes, it is irritating. You must clear the previous line first. If you want to make sure that both ends are perfectly aligned, start by turning on the guides. If you want two lines to be part of the same way, you should use the tool pen instead.

• Need help to remove the small white lines between attached forms. Still visible even after aligning anchor points.

  Hey, I'm new here, so many apologies if the community has been asked this question several times before. I do a quick search, but couldn't find an answer to my problem anywhere. Would be very grateful for help.

  I'm quite a beginner with Illustrator, so this may be something embarrassing simple!

  But as the title says, I have a very frustrating problem, trying to create an image of polygon. I've been using the pen tool to make triangles, then join all my anchor points with the horiz/vertical align Center. Roads joined look good, until I have add color... Triangles have a very light white line on them, I have tried to delete the anti alias, which solves the problem, but then the triangles look pixelated. Even when you import into Photoshop the pale lines are visible, as well as when the file is merged or saved as a JPG file.

  I've seen some very impressive polygon art and forms look seamless when joined.

  Here is an example of the problem. Ideally, I'd like that forms merged without rough lines.

  See you soon! Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  BRI,

  I just read it again.

  works on objects, rather than Anchor Points.

  You can have triangles which fail to assemble completely.

  Try this, smart guides are your friends:

  Starting with the last triangle (you can see the stacking order in the layers palette), click the path to find) and work your way upward as follows:

  1) click on the lower triangle with the selection tool.

  2) click on one of the neighbors, and move it to the bottom to be second in the stacking order, then move it a little far, then ClickDrag back by one of the Anchor Points to be aligned corresponding to the lower anchor (Smart Guides say anchor when you are there).

  (3) with the ClickDrag Direct selection tool other anchor Point to snap (you can drag a bit far and back until the Smart Guides say anchor);

  Who should ensure a full adjustment between the two less triangles

  4) continue until you are finished with the other triangles.

• Moving anchor points and the whole shape gets distorted to change the line weight

  I have a fairly simple drawing that I drew in a larger size, so I could be more specific with it, and now I want to reduce up to the finished size and thicken the line, but when I make the line thicker, my anchor points are moving and the whole drawing is distorted.

  Using Adobe Illustrator of 24 years, I never saw that happen. When I click on the "up" arrow in the stroke palette a lot of time to gradually increase the thickness of line, I can watch made anchor 'walk' around like my shape gets distorted.

  If I go to the place a numeric value for the thickness of line, it doesn't.

  However, if I use the scale tool to shrink the design down to the size of 10% or 20%, or whatever, with traits of the scale and effects UNCHECKED, yet once, move the anchor points and the drawing is distorted.

  It's all about a brand new installation of Illustrator CS 6 for Mac (although I use CS 6 for about 2 years now, my hardrive crashed this past weekend and I had to reinstall everything).

  I missed a little box somewhere that I never saw elsewhere that is what actually happen?

  This post editing to add:

  Also, some of these objects in my drawing I cannot change the race less than 1 point thickness. If I choisis.5 ou.25 pt in the context menu, or even if I enter the numeric value, it jumps to 1 point. Other objects in the drawing are not.

  These objects in question are "rounded rectangle" forms I used the scissors tools to cut and then used the "join" command to put them as well as other forms that have been "scissored"as well."

  All forms of "Ellipse" and "Rounded Rectangle" that I have left intact do not exhibit this problem with stroke and distortion.

  You are being bitten by the Align-to - pixel grid. Select the entire document and go to the transformation Panel and turn off snap to Pixel - grid at the bottom of the Panel. Then go into the rollout (small triangle in the upper-right) and disable align objects on the pixel grid.

• Add anchors to the shape of the dynamic object?

  I'm trying to change a shape into a smart object, for a model of an open book. I want to use it to generate images of our book pages (page/design spreads layout).

  Using the single warp and skew transformation tools are not enough. The form, I need has a pinch in the middle. I want this kind of spread:

  

  to comply with the pages right and left (top and bottom, mounted soft on each side).

  BUT

  When I create a dynamic object I can't add anchor points (can I?). Can I use rather naïve transformations. I can try a mesh of puppets (action hard to remove all small distortions of external form).

  Is it possible to modify a rectangle (add/manipulate anchors), after you HAVE created a SO (in order to keep the flat rectangle of the PSB)?

  I tried to add points BEFORE I created the statement of objections, but they disappeared in the main PSD after I creqated the OS.

  I think I'm missing something obvious. Help, please. Makes me crazy.

  Greg

  You cannot add points of anchorage, but with what you want to do, you must break your text in a separate page and convert each page separately. You could probably make a page and then make a new smart object via copy, is SO independent, then back horizontally. Then open it and put the second page of the text. Just be aware that you will need flip the text inside the SO, so it's good to read again.
