cannot align guides

In Illustrator 10, I do the guides by dragging the rule.

But I can't align opposes them.

I see no preference governing this, and under the view menu is ' hide/lock/create/release/clear' only. Nothing on the turn on or off.

I don't know I missed something: How can I do this?

My solution when I have need for such precision is selecting my object, switch to the direct Selection tool and with the Smart Guides (CMD + U) turned on, take one point (be sure that all points of the object are selected) who should 'snap' to the guide and drag it until I saw the light 'works '. It gives me the exact position relative to the guide without having to type the coordinates, etc. for the location on the page.

  • Duplication of the static alignment guides in the Pages

    In an attempt to use Pages (5.6.1) for a Page Layout project, instead of InDesign, I'm coming across a few limitations.

    I arranged with care a number of static alignment guides on a page of A4 landscape (see image below) and you just want to duplicate page with snap lines.

    After an hour of trying the obvious things, the search for menus, apple help, knowledge base of apple etc. I'm still sitting here unable to move forward. It is hard to believe that there is no way to implement the alignment guides that are reproducible in what is supposed to be a page layout application.

    Any ideas? Am I missing something?

    Pages does not repeat the manual guides.

    You're barking the wrong tree trying to get pages 5.6.1 to replace Indesign, for hundreds of reasons, mostly to do with key features missing many more to do with simple things such as uniformity of color and patterns of maintenance.

    The functionality missing number 1 which was in Pages ' 09, with more than 100 other people, is no link text area, followed by no Pages deal with, no funds lost, no landmarks of crop and all shadows, reflections, special frames and transparency most breed only at 72 dpi, over one pile of others.

    Worse still, you can rely on Apple to chop its file formats for most buggy, shortly after you did a pile of work, not that files are actually portable, they are working on so little OSes, usually as the last, and certainly not on any non - Mac OS.

    Affinity editor should come out this year and if it is half as good as designer of affinity and affinity Photo, will be a killer product and a brand new and a reasonable price and productive eco system.

  • Cannot align objects or paths to guide the intersections with the smart guides (or at all)

    In artificial intelligence, the guides indicate "intersection" when I paint a path or moving an object to align to the intersection of the two guides, when I release the mouse, the object button, I go/design jumps slightly the intersection of planned alignment.  IFIs continue to try to move to align, it jumps to the other side or back to where she was, but Word will correspond to the intersection. What I am doing wrong?

    You gould helped snape to grid and a grid of pixels. If not, keep in mind that the alignment feature is dependent on the zoom level.

  • I can't stop my pixel alignment guides

    I went through all the preferences, all the alignment options in the view drop-down list, but even with everything turned off, I can not configure specific guides. Each guide I bring to the Board of the art, and each guide I try to reposition always snaps to pixel most close. For a vector program, that seems like a very strange to make decision. Have I missed something or you can no longer set specific guides?

    footthumb,

    I'm afraid you are haunted by the Align attribute to the ghost of the pixel grid.

    Select the current items and, where applicable and uncheck snap to grid of pixels in the Transform palette, then uncheck Align new objects to the pixel grid in the options (flying).

    You can avoid the types of documents with the default (RGB for the web and other) or change the default value for such documents.

  • New user - cannot set guides

    I have chosen leaders, TOOLTIPS, SHOW the GUIDES, ALIGN ON the LANDMARKS, VIEW the SMART GUIDES and SNAP to THE guides.

    I click on the rule and drag a guide to the place where I want the guide to be and as soon as I release the mouse button the guide disappears.  What I am doing wrong?

    Make sure that you drag a box rule directly above or to the left of the surface of the canvas. Otherwise, as you have noticed, the guideline is not affected.

  • cannot align objects in illustrator. not as simple as it sounds...

    Until today, I worked in fine illustrator. I could break one object to another, during the development of the lines, line segment end anchor points may break easily, align objects to anchor points as I paint, etc... Now, this isn't the case. Also, before I could right click in the middle of something, and he would choose it, now I have to click on the actual path that surrounds it and the object.

    I work with CS4 Windows. I went to the 'View' menu and ensure that "nod to the point" is turned on, it is. I even tried to line up on the grid. None of this works.

    Please, any help would be appreciated. Thank you

    Hi @Bruze ,

    I see that you have more option of the wizard of the printer to align the cartridges. I can help you with this.

    It seems that the software is corrupt. I will give you with the steps to uninstall and reinstall the printer software.

    Unplug the USB cable.

    Go to start, Control Panel, devices and printers or printers and faxes, highlight any icon in this window.
    Click on file, print server properties, click the driver tab and delete the printer. Then in the window of the printer, do a right click and delete the printer icon.

  • Cannot align or align lines and text on the grid

    Captivate 7

    I work with this since nearly two hours and can't seem to align or to align the work of the grid. I want to drag and drop the words in the order: ed's weird and ugly.

    But lines I've done will remain not straight horizontally, and I can't seem to equalize the distance between words. I know how to do easy-peasy in Mac Keynote, but may not know how to get it here in Captivate. Once more, Miss me something obvious. Some advice for me?

    Screen Shot 2013-09-26 at 9.38.36 PM.png

    To draw a straight line, hold down the SHIFT key. This is going to go right for you.

    To get the same distance between them, select them and click on change, Align, distribute horizontally. You can also align the edges as well to make sure they are straight.

  • scroll pane cannot align its content

    When a node (Group for example) is added in a scrolling pane, the scroll pane automatically align the node to the left upper corner of the content area of the scroll pane. How can I customize the alignment of the node (Middle center for example) in the scroll pane. When the size of the node is scaling greater than the size of the pane to scroll bar scroll the scroll pane is displayed and if the node size is shrinking, and there the size becomes smaller that the scroll pane is then the node is aligned on the Community Center. It seems do not take effect if I replace layoutChildren method of the scroll pane and set layoutX and one property of the node.
    If anyone can give me some clue?
    Thank you

    ScrollPanes are a bit tricky to use. They line up not happy, you must use layout managers to do or you need to provision yourself with shapes in groups using absolute coordinates or translations. ScrollPane sets there own viewport associated coordinated and you need to provision your content in this window.

    How can I customize the alignment of the node (Middle center for example) in the scroll pane.

    The layoutBoundsInParent of the node, get the viewportBounds of scrollpane and perform the conversion of the node, such as the center of the node is at the center of the viewportBounds (requires a bit of simple math to do this) by adding listeners on each property.

    When the size of the node is scaling greater than the size of the pane to scroll bar scroll the scroll pane is displayed and if the node size is shrinking, and there the size becomes smaller that the scroll pane is then the node is aligned on the Community Center.

    Similar to above, come to work with these properties.

    Not exactly a direct answer to your question, but you can try to play with the code after if you like Saludon. This is something I wrote to learn about JavaFX layoutbounds system. Resizing of the scene and activating / deactivating elements on and outside will allow you to see the scroll pane. View limits listeners show you properties that you are interested in getting the desired effect.

  • cannot align STROKE to inside

    Hello

    I created a shape (Rectangle), applied rounded corners, expand the appearance and a linear gradient.

    After that, I added a line in the appearance (wide 2pt), filled with white Panel, and when I tried to align this race inside

    I can't.  'Coup align inside' options "Line up Outside race" are grayed out.

    What's wrong?

    Thank you

    Following your steps, I suspect that you have added a stroke at the level of the group. At the group level, your option will be grayed out. Yo the need to separate after your expand appearance.

    Try to use the appearance Panel often, there are a lot of very important features.

  • Cannot align the point/path

    I recently moved to Illustrator CS4 10 and I do a lot of technical drawings.

    The problem I encounter is that smart guides and snap to the point does not seem to work as well as it did in version 10.

    10 I was able to select the path of the object with the direct Selection tool, and then I was able to snap (whether it is the point of the path chosen) to another path of objects (curved or flat) or anchor point.

    In CS4, I can break only a selected to a flat path or anchor point anchor point.

    Lose this feature my being a factor of rupture if I can't fix or at least better understand. Help

  • Cannot align the bottom edge of the photo with the top of the taskbar on the H - P dv7-4296 running Windows 7

    I have a dv7-4296nr running Windows 7.  I use a slide show for my wallpaper.  But some of the graphics that I use are not among the standard background images and are not size 1600 x 900 pixels.  I resized them so that the vertical dimension is 900 pixels and the horizontal is not more than 1600 pixels.

    I want to put a text caption simple (usually only one word) in the lower right corner of the image, as close as possible to the lower edge.  Put the text in the image is easy, but he displayed is not!

    The problem is that the taskbar hide the bottom of the image, including the legend.  I can think of two approaches to solve the problem, but have not been able to get either to work.

    The preferred approach is to resize and place the photos so that the bottom of the image is almost exactly in line with the top of the to-do bar and the top of the image is at the top of the screen.  That would allow me to display the entire image with the caption placed where I like it.  I was not able to resize the images and place them in the display to achieve this.  Can you tell me how to proceed?

    The other answer, which is less satisfactory, is to move the legend to the top, so the base line is just above the top of the taskbar.  How far away from the lower edge of the baseline of the text image will have to be to do this?

    Thanks for your help!

    The taskbar are 40 pixels high, so you can see only 860 900 pixels display area.  The simplest solution is to put the pixel text-based line at least 40 of the bottom of the image and use the option Center in the positioning of the image menu.  Unfortunately, this leaves the background pixels 40 obscured by the taskbar.

    A more elegant solution is to resize the image in order to make the vertical dimension 860 pixels.  I use Corel Paint Shop Pro, which has a function called 'Size of the canvas', and I don't know there are similar functions in other paint programs.  Canvas size allows you to add a background (a "Web") and specify the size of the canvas as well as the location of the image on the canvas.

    I make the white of the canvas, 900 pixels high and the same width as the image.  It gives me a bunch of white 'canvas' 40 pixels up and down.  I add the text, and then store the resulting image in the folder that contains the images on my desk of slides.

    It works very well: the taskbar don't obscure than the white stripe, while I can see the entire image with the text placed where I want.

  • How can I get my guides to align the work plan using my align palette? Whenever I hit the button Align, the guide turns completely off the drawing surface.

    I'm not crazy, he used to work. I could use the palette line up to put my guides centered, right-aligned, left-aligned, etc. I started having this problem in CS5 when I hit the button Align and the guide would go completely out of the drawing surface. I thought it was just a bug and would leave with upgrade to CC. But I'm getting the same problem! So boring.

    It's an old bug that sting when you line up with the palette alignment guides while using an extract of the limits is selected.

    You can disable it in the General preferences or in the drop of the alignment pallet.
