aligning curved paths / separated from the anchor points

OK so I'll try to recreate a logo that did for me awhile it y a. never, I could find the original font, so I started describing the cursive "L" with the pen tool. My problem is the following:

How to align these curved paths that are broken but still in the same form closed? instruments, smoothly and quickly. You can see I added a YELLOW curved line as a guide, but there must be an easier way of efficient, correct?

Don't think that "hierarchical" not... think "trace". You can overlap paths while doing so it won't make any differnce in the end. There is no reason that you should only follow the outside of the shape. Overlap the paths when necessary to continue the curves.

  • Unable to set the anchor points of the path when the keyframes turned on...

    I have a layer of irregular shape who I am deformation over time (from smallest to largest). I am able to set the anchor points of the path to the forms I want, but once I put two keyframes for the path I'm interpolating a slide, I'm more able to set the anchor points for minor changes, for example, I am unable to draw the Bézier handles. If I disable keyframes, then I am allowed to adjust the anchor again, but that means I have to start whenever I need to make an adjustment. I have run successfully the concept but need to change several layers of form in this way, and not having is not access to the Bézier handles point of anchorage slows productivity.

    Any ideas?

    Sorry, I missed the rather obscure reference to an expression in the first post you. Had, I had to pay more attention I'd say disable the expression to change the path, and then select. Not being able to select a top with the marks of perfectly logical on expression because it is turned on with the full path is selected by the expression of all time. This is how work expressions. This seems to be a lot of trouble to go just to change the "timing" of a couple of keyframes.

  • Merge multiple paths to a single anchor point

    Hello friends,

    I want to create a perspective of illustrator grid to use with other software.

    I would like to know if it is possible to merge several paths to an anchor point unique to a single point perspective grid that can be easily changed by moving the anchor point in the Middle, as in the picture below.

    Imgur: the most impressive pictures on the Internet

    An anchor may reach only 2 segments of track. Your image must at least consist of 2, if it is not not 4 paths. But you can select multiple anchor points (not a path) and use the Panel line up to get them exactly on the same position. Later if you want to draw a rectangle with the direct selection above them, move them around and move these selected elements.

  • Navigation in both sense between the anchor points with "prev" and "next buttons?"

    Hi all

    I'm working on a horizontal presentation site that has anchors on each part. That the user scroll, he snaps to each anchor point. It works fine with just the mouse wheel, but I wish I had previous buttons and following which allow easy navigation between points. I know I can have buttons to jump to say on each article has > B > C and then C > B >, but it's a simple "prev" and "next" buttons that are pinned to the page as a whole. Then, as the page scrolls from left to right, the buttons remain in place. Is it possible to have them just go to previous and next in the line, rather than linking a button to anchor point A, B, C, etc.?

    I can't move the anchor points on a shape, I've drawn with the pen tool.  There are also small circles with a point in them (think focus), who they are and they are part of my problem? If I open a new document and draw randomly everything is good, no anchor and focus points behave.

    Bubble icons are the widgets corner. You can drag inward to round the corner. They are not part of your problem. If you want to hide them, select view > hide corner Widget. I have a hotkey defined for this menu item.

    If you see multiple bullseyes, you may have your set with the shape selected, that would prevent you from being able to move individual anchor points. Deselect the shape first, and then move the anchor with the direct Selection tool.

  • Cannot move the anchor point?

    I use CS4.

    When I try to select an anchor point, the actions I take immediately highlight the position and position - not the anchor. I use the selection tool - is not serious if I select the layers or via screen - same thing happens.

    Any thoughts?

    Thank you!

    If you use the Pan behind tool (keyboard shortcut is the key there) and enter the anchor point, the anchor moves relative to the layer, but does not move the apparent position of the layer in the composition. If you check the position values in the timeline panel, you will see that they change when you drag the anchor around the layer.

    If you enter values of anchor point in the timeline panel, the relative position of the layer seems to be moving in the composition window, but the position of the values do not change because the position of the anchor point is not mobile at the composition level.

    The value of the position of a layer is always the position of the anchor from the composition. The value of the anchor point is the position of the anchor relative to the layer. Rotation and scale centered around the anchor point of the two.

    I hope this helps.

  • Application of expression about the masks and the anchor point

    Hello world

    As im new to expressions I'd like know if there is one that might place the anchor point in the middle of the left and right points masks.

    So, essentially, it would be something like:

    The fair value of mask, subtract the mask from left value, divide the result by 2, and add the result to hide the left value. and the end result would be the anchor x value.

    And then the position values would need to be updated as well

    3.jpg.

    This image shows an image divided into 10 parts by use of the mask, each section has its own layer to manipulate individually

    I wish that the anchor points to around the middle of the original image in the middle of each of the hidden sections. See the 2 pictures below.

    2.jpg

    (only 3 Articles visible on this image) Section to the left's current layer.

    Anchor is sitting in the Middle now, id like it to sit in the middle of the left section, where to point the arrow. The section should stay where it is now, then the position values would need to be updated as well.

    1.jpg

    Another example, it is the right, in all, there are 10 sections of mask.

    4.jpg

    Each section has its own layer to manipulate individually.

    In the end, I'd like to do a rotation effect sections on their axis Y similar to these billboards with several ads on them. See the link below

    Hope this is clear enough?

    Thank you guys.

    Effect--> Transition--> card Wipe. For the rest - no, you can't access mask given with expressions. Only scripts can. It's a moot point, though. If you know the width of a band or it can calculate somehow, the course will be one way or another...

    My laptop was working fine yesterday, but when I started it today I get the message "Wireless association failed because Windows did not receive response from the access point or wireless router.

  • How set the anchor point of the composition (no layer)

    Hi people,

    I have a composition very long and skinny.  In a far corner of the comp, I'm turning a layer on the x axis, but I want to turn backward in relationship to itself, and NOT with regard to the focus of the long and lean model.  I changed the anchor point of the layer itself to be the center of the layer, but it always tilted toward the center of the model:

    Screen Shot 2016-09-04 at 2.14.33 PM.png

    How can I change the anchor point of the comp itself?  I tried to change the position of 'anchor' in the grid 3 x 3 in the composition settings panel, but that seemed to have no effect.  Thank you!

    It makes sense, but it surprises me. If the point of leakage of a 3D object will always be in the center of the composition?

    No.... Just like in real life, point of view is controlled by the position of the camera, the angle of view is controlled by the focal length, and the center of the view is always on an infinite perpendicular line between the center of the plan of the film (point of interest). The human eye is not tilt shift, like the cameras was discovered and no not the camera AE (or no matter what camera I've ever seen in a 3D application, so you can not control the perspective by winning the film plane or by moving the center of the lens as you can do with a camera or a tilt shift lens.

    The vanishing point is where the parallel lines converge and depends on the angle of parallel lines to the camera.

    I hope that makes sense.

    Here's the thing about nesting more small compositions in a larger. If you put 3D layers in your nested compositions and condense the transformations, then the camera in the main computer will interact with the 3D layers in nested compositions. If you do not condense the transformations there will be no change in perspective as the camera moves into the main computer. If you do not condense the transformations and you make the 3D before comps will organize just flat cards in the main 3D model space.

    One last thing. Only the Active camera view has perspective. All custom views are orthogonal - no perspective. This

    It will take a minute, but you should be able to wrap your head around that. Here is a demonstration of model how global collapse of transformations. Feel free to play with it. Collapse Transformations.aep (Note: your browser may add an extension .txt to the app file - just delete it)

    Hi, I need to send 3 of my 6 tickets off Adobe to a friend, how to record 3 separately from the 6?

    You can not with the free software from Adobe. Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Standard can be purchased for this, but it probably costs a lot more than tickets. If your friend is a good friend, ask them to print it and do not use special tickets. If they are a good friend, print and send to print.
