CS4: join a zigzag line and a straight line

I'm pretty new to Illustrator. I use CS4 on mac.

Here's what I want: a rectangle filled in which the top and bottom line segments are straight and the line segments are two lateral zigzag. I can't find a good way to do it. It seems relatively simple during must be a method to do this, right? I apologize if this has been answered. I did a lot of research, really.

The first thing I tried: a rectangle, then effect > distort & transform > Zig Zag. Which turns all segments of the zig zag of rectangle, and I want the top and at the bottom right.

Next: Draw four separate lines and join them to make a form that I can fill. I can do that, right? In any case, the problem: I draw a zigzag line and a straight, perpendicular line. I select endpoints with the tool pen (right?) to join them. When they join, or both become straight and they both became zigzag. Which is not what I want or the other. Here is a picture of what I'm trying to do.Screen shot 2012-06-16 at 9.53.58 PM.jpg

The other thing I noticed is that the effect of Zig Zag does not give me additional anchor points (at least from what I see) and does not find anchor points where I want. See in the picture above, where the left side selected line, that there is a right way so I anchor points don't line up with the line zigzag that is visible to me. Which means that when I try to attach segments, they make funny shapes around the corner. Which is also annoying. This thread seemed to indicate that Zig Zag should give me additional anchor points on every corner: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/482958. Why I not get that? It's a question of CS4/CS5?

Essential, I just want to this form. Any method that I can use in CS4 would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

To draw the figure:

1 rectangle tool: drawing a rectangular path.

2 white pointer: select a segment (not an anchor point).

3. cut to the Clipboard.

4 paste in front.

5. follow the Zig - Zag effect.

6 expand the appearance.

7 black pointer: select two traces.

8 join twice.

I don't see what's the difference between have icons on my page tiles and the application windows on my screen, except that the former is more efficient.

    Easy solution for this. You can download the Start button after the installation your computer will work like all the other previous windows and ordinarysoft.com. You will have all the programs with your button/start menu 'start '. The installation start opt to escape metro and you never see it again. Tell me if you have any problem to find the button start or downloading from the link I told you. Its free of cost.

  • crashes CS4 from CS3 - Installer update and uninstall it now says bad install the database.

    I tried all day get my CS3 update for my CS4.

    (a) CS3 is still present (at least one program I checked). I could disable this morning and reactivate later.

    (b) tried google and read this: installation program crashes. Control system profile | CS4, Photoshop Elements 8

    (c) have done a lot of things, but not yet able to update.

    (d) and as seems to be the Community (thank you) rather than public support - where is adobe support now (as he sent me in this way, rather than to 'support'). that is, not really sure of who I am "talk" also, obviously need/want to protect my privacy, etc..

    Thank you for your links.

    Re: CS3 and (later installs).

    I was able to install CS3 on Windows 7 without problem - once I put the date in 2009 or 2010. The problem I found was that program Adobe update on media I have seems to think that the world has ended and refuses to accept the activation code. With the clock set back - CS3 install, update the update, and then he works as well as can be expected.

    Re: CS4 - I've updated several times in the past - and never had a problem. My fear is that I am disabling CS3 in time so I can install it again, later, if necessary. (My CS4 package is an update and installed CS3 seems to work for the update better).

    As installation CS3 is always a risk - like systems get latest - I'm afraid I do too.

    In any case, thanks for the links - some I knew, more that I want that I never needed to know

    p.s., Adobe contacted me - and I'll get in touch with them when I have the time to call.

  • I purchased the CS4 master collection for windows and I change my computer on a Mac. How to upgrade my license?

    I purchased the CS4 master collection for windows and I change my computer on a Mac. How to upgrade my license?

    There is no option to update your CS4 license except subscribe to specially of the first creative cloud plan cuts the year for owners of CS (Adobe: creative, marketing, and document management solutions).

    Platform swaps are allowed only for the most recent released CS software (CS6).  You can get a version license Mac to CS4 by Adobe since Adobe doesn't sell older versions, and the only version of CS for sale is CS6...  CS4 is not eligible to get CS6 at an upgrade price.

    You can buy CS6 via the following page: http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_sl_c reativesuite6.htm

  • Join condition of cube and other mapping missing mapping

    Hi David,

    I have a strange problem... After the creation of cube mapping tables defning and physical objects joins and the change of my mapping intermittently disappears... Not being able to trace what's happening. Is this a known bug or nothing is done correctly?

    Enjoy your previous answer.

    Thank you very much
    Paiva

    A "mapping" is a term of olap product management which means that the cube is not mapped to the level the fact sheet. For example, suppose you have tables like this

    CREATE TABLE SALES_FACT
    (
      DAY_OF_SALE DATE,
      PRODUCT_ID NUMBER,
      UNITS NUMBER,
      COST NUMBER
    )
    
    CREATE TABLE TIME
    (
      DAY DATE,
      MONTH NUMBER,
      QUARTER NUMBER,
      YEAR NUMBER
    )
    

    Suppose you want to analyze the data only at the level of the MONTH and more. In this case, you must set a time of hierarchy which includes levels MONTHS->->-> ALL_TIME YEAR QUARTER and you would need to define a join condition between SALES_FACT and TIME of the form

    SALES_FACT.DAY_OF_SALE = TIME.DAY
    

    This is sometimes called a "mapping" because it maps data in the AW to a higher level than what is stored in the fact (for example, the MONTHS instead of DAYS).

    You are right. I watched more. Add this condition instead of the batch number condition.

  • CS4 Installation error - both CD and download the Adobe product

    Unfortunately, I had the difficult task of trying to reinstall my original version of CS4 Designer Premium without success today. Reaching 2 disk during the installation, I was invited to 'Leave' or 'Continue' by clicking on the appropriate button. However, for some strange reason, he would not recognize my selection. I also could not escape/quit Setup without rebooting my iMac. Results on the second and third attempt. Then, I came to the Adobe site and d / designer CS4 Premium edition. This time during the installation, it brought me to the following popup then seized with the same results (no response to my button selections). {1. Yes, my mouse works 2. Yes, I tried the button "Enter" - nothing worked and 3. No, I can not afford an upgrade at this time.} Bottom line: I am unable to install either version of designer by disc or download Adobe CS4 premium. I need a working copy of Photoshop that I use on a daily basis. I'd appreciate any help regarding this situation. Normally, I have good things to say about Adobe products. Thanks for your time.

    Since CS4 was released before the function of guardian of OSX, maybe the default is interfering with the installation process.

  • Join Segments of line (road segments) SDO_AGGR_UNION/SDO_AGGR_CONCAT_LINES

    Hello

    I have road segments I need join/merge in order to get the axe of full road. Unfortunately, I have some segments that are not attached and the axe of road resulting has a gap.

    When I look at the road segments and the result of the join it seems to me that the aggregation does not work for roads that either have segments that are disjoint (we have a few roads where simple segments do not touch) or if a road has two or more "branches" (just take the letter 'Y' as example for this).

    (1) SDO_AGGR_CONCAT_LINES

    Did not work at all - I couldn't create a view using SDO_AGGR_CONCAT_LINES. As mentioned in documentation - is not suitable if you have bows (we have).

    (2) SDO_AGGR_UNION

    I tried SDO_AGGR_UNION also that the documentation mentions: "do not use SDO_AGGR_UNION to merge the string line or chain multiline; Instead, use the function of spatial aggregation SDO_AGGR_CONCAT_LINES . »

    (3) SDO_AGGR_SET_UNION

    I tried as well SDO_AGGR_SET_UNION. This seemed promising that the documentation mentions not everything related to arcs but says: «Can aggregate sets of lines...» »

    2 and 3 provide the same result. Please take a look at the screenshot (HD, it looks like I can't upload a photo...)

    I want to aggregate the segments - is there another function in Oracle, I could use?

    Any idea, be it SDO_AGGR_UNION / SDO_AGGR_SET_UNION are / are not suitable for my dataset?

    Hello

    After some further tests, I discovered that the cause of the problem seems to be the application I used to display my road network.

    I have displayed the view in SQLDeveloper and with FME and two look fine - result is expected (see for 2 and 3). But initially, I used another package to check the view visually.

    Stefan - Thanks for the answer to yopur:

    -J' I need the roads step road segments displaying the data in our system GIS, most users want a road not simple segments

    -performance: will see, if not good, I'll create a carpet. view, the road network is fairly static and does not change often

    -gaps: there are no gaps in our data set (but 'gaps' appeared when I displayed the view in a specific package).

    -sdo_aggr_union / sdo_aggr_set_union seem to do what I want and seem to work with our data as well
