Definition of diagonal Bars in a Rectangle in Illustrator

Hi everyone, in Illustrator, how to make a shape with the points that will point to pint in another form?

For example, I'm flags, when a flag has a bar diagonally like in Scotland and the Jamaica bar width is defined by the flat or horizontal pose and then it is located diagonally on the flag, with its Center through the center of the flag [rectangle] and its ends focused on the corners.

How to define a horizontal bar to be a certain width (flat) and set it to be centered along the diagonal of a certain form and with its length defined by the corners of the rectangle?

Any help much appreciated

Gareth

PS. I made an example of what I'm trying to make here an exact place. It can be done easily in an exact square because you just made the bar 45 degrees, but in doing so it points the way to the center of the white bar (which I put it there myself exactly in the middle) are still not at the corners of the rectangle, diagonal so the length of the bar is not set.

Gareth,

You can (guides are your friends):

(1) create a straight path, with a weight of time equal to the width of the bar, very close from one corner to the other, and then with the direct Selection tool, drag endpoints to coincide with the Anchor Points of the corner,

(2) object > path > describe strokes,.

(3) create a copy of the background rectangle (Ctrl / Cmd + F).

(Select 4 2)) and 3) and Pathfinder > intersect shape areas (or whatever it is called in your version result in overlap between Forms, you may need to press Alt/Option to make a simple way).

To create the bar crossing, you can:

4 select 5)) and object > transform > reflect a copy (vertically or horizontally).

  • Why the Word icon changed on just this computer - new Word icon with an area gray at the bottom left with a diagonal bar or a pencil?

    Last week, one of our machines (34 bit) Vista has begun to view Word files by an icon which ranges from normal Word icon.  This strange Word icon has the normal Word icon with a gray area at the bottom left.  In the grey area is a diagonal bar or a pencil.  (Too small to see clearly).

    It seems to behave like a normal Word document, but the icon is different.  When double click on the file, it opens Word application normally.  It prints as expected.  If I find a Word file on the server, the icon of the file word seems normal.  Once I move the computer, afterwards, the change icon.  For some, it changes shortly after I saved the document on the new computer.  Sometimes, the icon does not immediately change, and sometimes it does.  Sometimes, the icon changes after the updating of the computer.

    I was told what happened after an update of Microsoft, but I can't check.  This computer has a Word 2007 (which has been updated to Word 2003 several months ago) and is running on the Vista operating system.

    We tried to restore the computer to last week, but he did not.  Message:
    "System restore was not entirely successful.  The system files and settings on your computer did not change.

    Hi Super_Ego,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    I suggest you try the following steps.

    1. click on start and then click Control Panel-> click the default programs->, and then select the set Associations tab.
    2. locate .doc or another Office Word on extensions and select change program.
    3. search for Microsoft Office Word, and then click OK.

    Check if the word file is back to normal.

    If this does not work, I suggest to create a test user account and check if the settings file for the word files are normal.

    I know how to produce objects of fixed size in Photoshop, but work with Illustrator CC and can't seem to identify a way to do the same.  Am wary that as a "vector" program, Illustrator does not support the creation of fixed size objects.  Is this true?  Or could someone point me to how I can fix the size of a rectangle in Illustrator?  Thank you!

  • Lack of specific options on the menu bar to the rectangle shape

    Hi, I am using the rectangle shape. I use this tool the first time, following some tutorials. I realized that specific menu bar options are missing IE create new layer of work, new way to work, to create the filled area. I tried to check and the specific options of the uptick under the window menu, I can't always get it. I also reset my tools, which it did not help.

    Press the keys as you launch Photoshop. A pop-up window should appear and allow you to delete the file.

  • Diagonal Bars - black frames

    ScreenShot004.jpg

    It is a project I did a year ago.  I recently opened it to make some output and found that many of the clips had their end portions covered with these black diagonal lines, and the underlying video was black frames.  This project was created in CS5 and I reopened it in CS5.  Clip lengths, including the bars seem to match the audio correctly it seems content in slightly shorter East.  Nothing is locked or disabled and trying to re-import the clip with no effect.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

    These lines are called rays of Danger, and they indicate that the multimedia documents related to a period is shorter than the timeline instance.  You need to troubleshoot the source media and discover why Pr no longer loves him.

  • Rectangle in Illustrator CS5 Mac/round rectangle STROKE problem...

    Help!  I'm stuck.  No, not the child into the well.  I took a picture and put a second layer top with a rounded rectangle to make a frame.  My problem is that I need to find a way to hide the small box outside the box on the second layer.  Thanks to all those who can help you.

    Another option is to put the Options bar of the Rectangle rounded to the path tool

    Trash bolt for the background layer, hold down the Cmd key and click on the symbol of the new layer to layer below the image to white. Then edit > fill with white.

    Return the image layer and draw the image as a path

    Click the load as a selection path in the Panel traced

  • drawing of a star that appears in the form of a rounded rectangle?

    Screenshot 2016-01-10 08.16.23.pngScreenshot 2016-01-10 08.19.47.png

    Hello, I'm trying to draw a star, but it is indicated by a rounded rectangle. In the appearance Panel, it said "rounded rectangle", too. I do not understand why I messed up. If anyone can, please explain what is happening? Thank you.

    You probably already understand that the appearance panel shows you the effect called (convert to shape) "Rounded Rectangle" change the outcome of your spline paths.

    If you turn off the eyeball in this Panel, or select the effect layer and remove the rounded Rectangle, the illustration will be back to its original look (Star) - or whatever it is you put in appearances.

    The diagonal bars for resizing the window went from the lower right corner beside the unread and Total Message count.

  • I can't click on any menu of Windows 7 Explorer buttons/scrollbar

    I recently noticed, I can't click on the scroll bar (the gray rectangle that you drag to scroll in the right corner of the window/file/explore) I can't click any other button in the folder as "burning" or "share". I can't click most of the buttons in the Panel, and I can not press or click on the buttons in a game (for example skyrim, because I spent the last hours 3 download) menu. But I can click very well on my desk, in the file (such as files in a folder that I can drag them around open ect) I can move the scroll bar in google chrome and click and make everything just fine, but not on windows, buttons, it seems. I was thinking of doing a system restore clean, or try a local restore point, but I really just finished download it Skyrim again and I just-ARGH. When I do ctrl + alt + delete I can't click anything that I can use enter however also although I can click anywhere in the scroll bar and the rectangle moves it slowly but I can't move the rectangle itself in the scroll bar. Please it's driving me crazy, that's why I bought a mac!

    I certainly know that this isn't for lack of my keyboard and mouse because I replaced them with others and I still get the same problem.

    JUST at the moment WHERE I WAS SUBJECT to GIVE HOPE, I tried all other solutions with no luck, I was up to 2. Ether make a clean install of the system, or do a clean boot! And to my surpise the boot worked :)) I can move the scrollerbar and click on the buttons in Explorer. I have not yet find it remains or even works in Skyrim: c.
