Creation of the "walls" quickly and precisely in Illustrator

Hello.

I'm a 3D artist, but recently due to popular demand, I am learning Illustrator for the sole purpose to make floor plans (those colorful artistic), I am very familiar with Photoshop and use it extensively, it would be certainly enough if I wasn't going to print the plans in multiple dimensions, even using smart objects and vectors I don't think Photoshop is the tool for the job.

I downloaded illustrator and so far I'm liking it a lot, I think it's the right tool for the job. However, I couldn't find a quick way to draw the walls with precision.

The biggest problem is that I couldn't find a way to 'offset' paths open quickly... when the way is open, it compensates the lines on both sides, as opposed to the closed roads, the way I found is to use the Scout to split shifts to remove the ones I don't want , but it's a pain, it is better to just draw the sides of the walls separately instead, which is a tedious process too.

I'm looking for simple ways to offset paths open to a specific aspect, or maybe make some traits that are adjacent to the paths, so I can use the tool 'contour Contour"to convert them into 'solid' paths, or another way to get the same result.

I know that Illustrator is no CAD program, but I don't think I asked too much of him.

Thanks in advance.

Way the easiest way is via the width tool.

Just use the width tool and Option/Alt click at the ends of the path and drag the marker width up to the path. This creates the line on one side of the path:

Once you do this, you can save the profile of the race:

Then apply just select the profile in the Panel of the stroke or the control bar.

Illustrator centers inherently strokes on all open paths. There is no other way to offest stroke I know.

  • Sequence of creation of the images uploaded and codecs.

    Hey!

    I edit a video with mainly pictures of youtube (bulletins of news and journalists), I downloaded I have no idea what sequence setting should I use for this? Videos also have a different codec. How can I change this codec, and which one should I use so they all have the same codec? I have the first cc pro.

    First, you should figure out what codecs are... you can get an idea in Finder/Explorer, but MediaInfo (downloadable for free) is a very handy tool to have on your machine in any case. Open the drag and drop file from Finder/Explorer on it and go to the tree view and it will show you an amazing amount of info on this file.

    Media Info: https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo

    You'd be able to get the codecs, speed & size, all kinds of useful things.

    Once you know say sizes of images, you can determine what image size should be your 'base' image size for your project. You can always put the "biggest" files on it, but top-sizing of the smaller files always shows a degradation.

  • Why is the battery loses power even when connected to the wall of entry?

    I always use my laptop connected to the wall outlet and the battery loses power no matter why is - this?

    Hello

    Laptops today are designed to switch to the battery and drain a little and
    Re-load. This keeps the successful battery and helps to prolong its useful
    life.

    Both my Toshiba will be the battery once a week and 80% drain
    and then reload. Of course once they have re-charged they workpieces then on
    A/c power.

    If the laptop does not back the the a/c, then there may be a problem with
    the charger, charge the cell phone circuit, or the battery.

  • When I select recently bookmarked it works ok, but when I select unsorted bookmarks it opens a window not closing cycles for a long time.and I want to close the window manually and not automatically

    When I use the selection recently marked with a bookmark in bookmarks, it works very well and load the page quickly and opens another window. but when I go to unsorted bookmarks and double-click on the desired bookmark it loads very slowly and cycles for a long time. If I go to the firefox icon in the Launcher on natty 11.04 with unity it shows two open windows. I click on the unsorted Bookmarks window and manually stop and it works well and unordered finishes, loading the bookmark page I was trying to see. Why the unsorted Bookmarks window closes on its own? Is there a setting I can do close automatically. It really slows down the loading of the page, I tried to see. well thank you for any help or advice.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See basic troubleshooting: make a new profile:

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

    If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Said the jammed paper and is not

    Printer Canon works very well.  Now, comes back with "JAMS" and is not.

    Hi Mabel,

    To help you to propose measures to solve the problem, I would appreciate if you could answer the following questions:

    1. What is the number of the Canon printer model?

    2. what version of Windows operating system is installed on the computer?

    3. when exactly you receive this error message?

    4 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    Paper jams are among the most common problems with Canon inkjet printers. Follow these instructions to learn how to remove a paper jam on a Canon inkjet printer:

    a. protect you against shock. Unplug the power cord at the back of the Canon inkjet printer. It is an important step when working inside ANY electronic device.

    b. remove the access panel back of the printer. It seems repetitive to say this, but this door will be in the back of the printer.

    c. looking through the open rear panel and get some papers. Remove any paper you find jammed here.

    d. close the access panel back. Make sure it snaps into place and it looks like the same way as it did before you opened it.

    e. find the Panel before or higher access. This is the Panel you would be up to change the ink cartridges. Open the access panel. If the carriage that contains the ink cartridges moves, then you forgot to unplug the printer, go back and do it now. Look for the paper that may be stuck in this area of the printer.

    f. remove the paper you find jammed here. When you pull ahead there will be resistance from the paper feeder. Pull slowly or the paper will rip and create a more stressful problem.

    g. close the front access panel. Be sure that it falls or it snaps into place. It should look like the same way as it did before you opened it.

    h. plug the power cord of the printer into the wall outlet and try to print again. If the printer prints the work, then you have successfully removed the paper jam.

    Hope this information helps. Reply with more information about the issue so that we can help you better.

  • KDL-60NX720; Launched the browser WEB and TV BRICKS! 4 RED flashes and support does not work

    I had this KDL-60NX720 for about 4-5 years, solid as a rock. Rarely used TV Apps, hooked up to Roku and looked at from time to time of movies in 3D from NTS Network Sony TV APPs.

    Today, I went on television and launched WEB TV browser, BIG MISTAKE. The State of TV bar off for 5 minutes, so I decided to turn off the TV and went outside. Came back a few hours later and the TV is over BRICKED.

    Flashing lights RED (4 times, pauses, repetitions). Turns on for 2 seconds, then turns OFF, can't the factory reset. Same sequence of flashing. Uplift of my entertainment system all unplugged each HDMI cord and followed every possible diagnosis Voodoo that Sony has recommended.

    Called and chatted with support. Downloaded the firmware on USB and plugged into the back. Waited 30 minutes. Same question above. Now 4 hours later, my life is in disarray and the TV is dead. Live sports game is on Roku and cannot look at anything. It's the weekend, Sony support just went offline.

    Past $ 2500 on this TV. Now I think if Sony will be able to help, or carry this TV from the wall bracket and drive him to the technician that will require more than a new purchase.

    What do Sony?

    Thanks for sending the link to United States service centers. According to my note, I live in the Canada.

    And have already looked at service Canada, 3 of the 4 centres centres have some negative reviews on Google. Not sure if Sony addresses the quality of service to their partners as well.

    End of the road for another loyal customer of Sony and all of its network and friends/family. Too bad.

  • CS5 wrong position of the guidelines in line with leaders at the zoom in and out.

    Hello!

    I noticed a long time ago and always doing something by changing the scale of the rules (for pixels to something else and back or pressing a TAB key or something to call some event in photoshop) to have my guidelines broken the dimensions adequate when you zoom in my opinion (or back). This looks like a bug of somekind for me, but a missing something and maybe it's a way to get photoshop update guidelines automatically when you zoom in? Is there something for this problem?

    Kinder Pawel

    If you see the zoom animation OpenGL, that is, where the zoom quickly and smoothly change from one level to the other, it is a known problem with the leaders sometimes do not update.

    Assuming you are using documents with tab (no floating windows), with active Zoom tool, try to activate the option [] Resize Windows to enter in the options bar to the top of the main window of Photoshop.  This should disable the animated zoom and make sure that you can see your leaders to update.
