Cannot remove pieces of contours without changing their shape

I am new to illustrator and this simple problem several times - faces

I make a curved path, to caress with the desired weight, mirror, move them until they meet in the middle and use "join". But I need then to cut a bit of the way. for example to shorten two verticle lines in order to meet the clear gray shape in the middle). I try to use the pathfinder (draw a shape on the offending line and remove it using the 'less front') but this makes all form a full path as in the second example on the left.

Seeing this, I tried to develop it in order to remove the vertical lines, but the top would then become a gross join instead of a sharp point.

I also tried to use the gum, but what makes high evil turn.

I want to change the line without the join goes haywire. I know it's going to be very simple, but I can't work on the answer.

Is it possible to transform what was once a path in just a form of basis vectors that works on the pathfinder?

Hi, once again.

Here's a little more information. There are several ways to do your job. Here is a simple way to create a mirror image of right.

Create a path and copy it. Let the selected copy. In the dialog box change, ICT transformation such benchmark indicated below (highlighted). Click Flip Horizontal.

Here is the result. Endpoints are automatically perfectly aligned, but did not join.

Drag the white arrow to select the two points. Join the selected angle (Ctrl + J).  The result is lower.

To shorten the bottom, select shape corners (highlighted) and use the arrow to the top-keys (or drag with SHIFT pressed) to put them where you want.

At this point, do what Jacob has suggested and adjust the point taste the angle limit.

More Jacob.

Regarding your bottom-right image, which looks like mutiple paths or more than one anchor to the upper joint.

I agree. Try to align endpoints of edges can be difficult to do it manually. I suspect that your strokes are hide a slight delay. Leading to unexpected behavior when you join them. The above procedure will be elimate that. And using Ctrl + will contribute anyway.

It will allow you to save a lot of time on the road if you create an action for each of the 4 reflections mirror, left, right, up & down. They are all the essentially the same.

1 copy

2 transform (Horizontal or Vertical, with the tic of reference point to the right place.)

Then, you can create a mirror of a simple click image. (If your Actions are set in button mode, below).

One last thing.

I try to use the pathfinder (draw a shape on the offending line and remove it using the 'less front')

For future use, the fastest way I know not to remove a segment of a closed path is to click anywhere on the segment with the Add Anchor Point tool (shortcut "+") and press DELETE.

It's all I have to say about it.

Peace,

Lee

  • How can I group objects without changing their stacking order?

    Hello world!

    I have large complex illustration with many objects and when I the Group down and higher objects the object background goes back and the appearance of the artwork changes. I think it is very stupid!

    Thank you very much!

    Very bad! I have worked with Maya... I looked at Corel Draw, the same as in Illustrator! Ha-ha-ha!

    Fine,

    "Ha ha ha" indeed. You are comparing apples and oranges.

    Of course of consolidation in a modelling program 3D does not work as it does in the 2D drawing programs. There is no order "stacking z"; each object has its own XYZ position in the global coordinate system. Since their debut in the middle of the 1980s, a group the general public focused on printing 2D vector drawing programs is by definition a set of contiguous objects in the stack of objects. It's for a good reason, having to do with, among other things, the order of rendering of live effects.

    Noncontiguous reunification is possible in some 2D programs. For practical reasons, the same thing exists as selections of saved from Illustrator.

  • My desktop icon to change their appearance?

    Greetings Windows wizards and warriors.

    A few months my desktop icons have changed their look by themselves? Little normal images are changed to little land and pages with the right corner leaning forward. When it started only affected the shortcuts of the site but since suddenly from affecting the icons of the programs as well. I tried to go into the properties for individual icons and changing images back to normal, but their real images are not available on the selection screen, their not located anywhere at all. Funny enough without notice the icon pictures return just as they disappeared.

  • Cannot remove the ghost folder. Error message: there is no such mailbox

    When I configure Thunderbird to connect to my Alpine Webmail, I had to rearrange my folders. Cannot remove a folder titled "mail" because according to TB "there is no such mailbox" but still shows on the tab my folders. I read through the previous discussions and have tried to unsubscribe the ghost folder, but that did not work or the other. I have a Mac OSX if this affects what it is. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thank you.

    Hello world. I solved the problem... somehow. By removing the account of Treasury Board and put in place again, TB has been able to sync with the files that were on Alpine. The ghost folder still presented (despite not existing not not on the Alpine site), but by changing the directory to the IMAP server of "mail" to "mailbox" the ghost folder disappeared. I found myself with records who have been named oddly (most likely due to the change of the name of directory) so when I changed the IMAP server directory to "mail" it reset my files with the way they were, with the exception of the ghost folder, that was no longer there. I'm not entirely sure why it worked, but in case someone else has a similar problem, I recommend to give it a try.

    Thank you all for your comments and help.

  • Since the update Firefox 6.0, some websites do not load correctly. I suspect it has to do with the Java being disabled because of the compatability modules. When I try to go to Tools/Add-ons, I get the message "Loading" for several minutes without chang

    Update Firefox 6.0 is useless to me because many websites I visit are not displayed properly, I guess because the Java modules are disabled because of incompatibility. They appear correctly in Internet Explorer.

    In addition, the add-on from Trend Micro is not compatible, which leaves me with a positive feeling.

    When I try to check to see if these modules can be updated, the menu item Tools/Addons just goes to a page with "loading" and stays there for several minutes without change until I close it.

    I would like to know the procedure to regularize this version of Firefox to my previous version that worked.

    Firefox 5.0/5.0.1/4.0/4.0.1 and earlier 3.6.20 all contain questions of security and stability that will not be corrected. You put your system at risk by using any version of Firefox that 6.0 or 3.6.20. Any person who displays a link to other versions is to be irresponsible, in my opinion.

    Java

    If the incompatible extensions in Add-ons > Extensions are Java Console, you have no need them unless your doing Java development. Most of the users have not yet installed, but Java will install Java Console with each update. You can delete them manually:

    The only thing that affects the functioning of the sites/Java applets on the web is the plugin (Add-ons - > Plugins) "Java (TM) Platform SE (version)". Do not forget that it is enabled and that you have not all extensions which affect/block "scripts".

    Trend Micro

    You must contact Trend Micro or go to the forums on their website to inquire about their plans to update the add-ons/toolbars they install in Firefox.

    Problem with the display of the Add-ons Manager

    The Add-ons Manager gets in a loop of loading due to the recent update of Firefox 6 and servers being overloaded because users and update process are looking for updates to the add-on. If you stay away from the "Get Add-ons" selection on the left of the screen of the add-on Manager, you should have no problem with that. This situation is expected to resolve when the overload of Firefox 6 update is complete. I do not always use this "Get Add-ons" option, instead, I go to the website of modules and the search for what I want from there: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=clone & cat = all & x = 0 & y = 0
