Cut text to the offset path
I'm trying to create a text cutting from a form.
I want the form to look like an expanded outline of the text, I did in creating the outlines of the text, clicking on offbeat path that created my desired effect.
I would then like to cut my original text of this way to compensate using the pathfinder tool but it doesn't let me do that.
Can anyone help? I found this extremely frustrating.
This is the desired effect I want.
j darcy,
A simple way, where you can keep Type direct and live effects, is for each artwork to:
(1) change the magenta to white,
(2) all parts before if not already, the Group
(2) select all in the same work of art and in the tick of flyout palette transparency mask opacity do with unchecked Clip and invert the mask ticked.

Hello
I work on the project and try to do something with offset path. Last time I worked on the project, I've forgotten what size I did the offset of the text path.
I would ask if all change to see what size I offset the path? I'll try the same path of shift of size to other projects.
Thanks in advance!

Umit,
If it is applied as an effect of direct Type, you can select the object and the effect > path > offset, then check OK, unless you have closed Illy in the meantime, and then you should be able to see what has been applied; After that you just click Cancel.
Or if applied as an ordinary object > path > Offset path, if you still have the original (type described or other) and the offset path, you can choose one then the other and see the difference of value W or H. It will be twice the offset.

Offset path does not create a separate path
CS6 Mac
Looks like my Illustrator is listening outside. When I apply offset path of the compound object, Illustrator does not create a separate path for me, but both the offset and original sort to group together:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xiu3xqcictx0ku0/Offset_problem_1.PNG
I am trying to create an effect like this tutorial on youtube. But as the offset path does not create a separate path, I can't duplicate the same effect.
No idea on how to solve this problem would be appreciated.
Did you use the object > path or effect > path? Here is the difference

Distribute evenly along the circular path
I'm fairly new to Illustrator, currently working on a project involving circular return address labels. On labels, the text of the address follows a circular path with bullets between the name, street and city/province/code postal. My question is this:
Now that I have entered all the text on the curved path, how I distribute evenly along this path? In other words, how can I make sure that the same amount of space is at the beginning and at the end of my line of text? At the present time, there is "still" space at the end of the address...
Thanks in advance.

If I understand correctly, then you select text path go to the paragraph Panel and choose the option of justification to the Centre you can also do the a paragraph style and you can change the default paragraph for this option style.

Cut the text from the image using the Pathfinder tool
Hi all
I'm cutting text from an image in Illustrator. I use the version on a Dell XPS 12 CS6.
I have scoured the internet for instructions and have tried everything, but when I followed the same steps in Illustrator I don't get my desired result. I created the contours for the text, so that the image and text are on the same layer, grouped (and dissociated) and then I tried all the options in the pathfinder, nothing helps. I've done it before with an image, but for some reason can not get it to work this time.
I even tried to make the image in a clipping mask, so it would be a 'form' instead of 'image', but that didn't do anything either.
If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it that I spent hours trying to figure this out!
Thank you!
Erin
Pathfinder will not work with a path and a picture.
Instead, put your text above the image (it can be the living text), select both.
You can then use the button do mask in the transparency to cut your text on the image palette.

Text bridge will not follow the actual path, says cannot download file
Im trying to use the path of the text of pipe, but it will not follow the actual path. When I tried to open it with bridge he says cannot download file, not taken in charge or extension file type
There is a bug in AE. To work, cut the track that she strives to follow and then paste this path on your layer. I think it was workaround.

It seems that wrapped text will not host photo resizing without cutting and pasting the image resized, is - what the Muse way is suppose to work?
It would be the default path to wrap the text with the image when you work in Design view.

I see that a small part of the text in the url bar, the rest is cut off.
Recently, my url bar displays only the first handful of letters in my url. If I use the arrow keys, I can see all the text is there, and hit enter brings to the top of the right-hand page, so is not cut the text, just the screen. About the first 15% of the present url bar text, while the bar remains is just gray. I am currently on 16.0.2.
This may be a problem with AuthenTec TrueSuite.

Offset path, leaving only the new path?
Is it possible to use the 'path of shift' command on an object and end with just the new paths of offset.
It is a double select / Remove the excess paths later.
++ Michael
Apply it as effect > path offset and expand your appearance thereafter.
Try to make something out of it.

Simple cut and past the text in JS please
Hello world. A big problem I always had with Indesign, is that I can't seem to remove shift as a keyboard shortcut for cutting text. (This is the shortcut, I grew up with and could never get used to the use of Ctrl-X, that I prefer to use for other things). In my view, there is a fundamental bug which means that this shortcut will not work. (In the box keyboard shortcuts dialog, 'cut' is listed under the Edit menu. It works on the text boxes and objects when assigned to 'default', but not in the selected text when the 'text' option is used.)
Therefore, I thought I'd try to assign the shortcut to a simple piece of JS code. Can someone give me the syntax if you please. Can follow programming languages, I am new to JS and despite playing for a few hours, that I can't seem to find the code to cut the selected text in the Clipboard.
Thank you very much
John

In one of the inDesign tutorials instructor pulls up what looks like an application bar that contains among other things a text editor to cut and paste the copy into the inDesign project. That is a feature of inDesign, and how is it accessible?
The instructor used the App Switcher on Mac to switch to a text editor and copy this text editor text. InDesign is not the active application.
