Features simple filled closed paths.

Hi all the masters of the Illustrator and end users. I feel that what I try to do is not possible with Illustrator and the method I use is the only way that this is possible. I would like to be able to "convert" a single path to a series of closed filled paths. Here I have a shape that resembles the letter P.

Stroke Example.jpg

It is a single path with an accident 100 PT on this stroke. It is exactly the form that I need, but it's a unique path. How I wish it were in a series of closed paths overflows.

This is the desired shape, shape that I need. The process that I used to do is take a page while save the AI would be sufficient. I then open it up in Photoshop and save it as an image file. so lose the sharpness of the vector. I then go back to Illustrator and open the image, trace it and get my closed paths. It is not a good idea to go the vector of the form > bitmap > vector. I prefer to stay in the environment of vector, but I know of a way to get a single closed path path.

I'd love to hear that it is both possible and not complicated to create. If you know a way to do it please let me know.

Thanks in advance,

I think that's what you're looking for:

I hope this helps.

    Uncheck "Preserve transparency" in the dialog box fill in path and all should be good.

  • the pencil of the closed path 17.1 - does not work for me

    Hello.

    is this working for anyone?

    Draw paths with the pencil tool

    1. Select the pencil tool.
    2. Place the tool where you want the path to start, and begin to drag to draw a path.
    3. When you started to drag, hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS). The pencil tool displays a small circle (and, in InDesign, a solid gum) to indicate that you create a closed path.
    4. When the path is the size and shape you want, release the mouse button (but not the Alt or Option key). After the closure of the road, release the Alt or Option key. You do not have to position the cursor at the starting point of the path to create a closed path; if you release the mouse button in another place, the pencil tool will close the form by creating the shortest line possible return to the starting point.

    This isn't for me. After I start drawing and I hold down the option, it's going to draw a straight line. I hold the key until after I said drawing early on.

    same thing with the railways connect two. pressing the button command does not change the behavior of the pencil tool.

    I guess there is no way to remap "smooth tool" to the new option? or moved it to a different shortcut key?

    It seems that the manual has not been updated to cover the new features.

    You must refer to the following:

  • Trouble filling a path - I found a hack

    I'm doing a caricature of drawing a character, scanned in AI and transformed.  Beautiful - I'm so impressed.

    Now I'm changing the individual components of the face, mouth, for example.  It seems to be a totally closed path. I wanted to fill it with a color.  Use the direct Selection tool, appeared the appearance Panel (the help file uses a term - the utes sign?), I clicked on the fill color and changed from None to red.  Hey, he filled outside of the mouth, turning the red face.

    The help file suggests changing the fill rule in the Panel, but I can't find that Panel nor can I find these rules in the appearance Panel.

    I finally resorted by selecting the mouth with the Lasso tool, cut and paste elsewhere, then fill it with the color.

    How can I fill that mouth without this workaround?  Have I not looked hard enough for the attributes Panel?

    GM

    Yep, that's as I suspected. You have dialed and duplicate paths.

    When I open the file, he had a clipping mask, so I started by releasing only and delete.

    Then I divorced from everything.

    Now, I clicked on the White side. It is a compound. I deleted it.

    Then, I selected the face new and liberated the compound. Everything went black but not to worry. The paths are still there.

    Next, I selected the path of the white face (black now) and she white. Turns out that it was in front of the eyes, the mouth and the nose, then I turned off the preview, chose the eyes and stuff and the led at the front.

    There are a few pieces of white around the hair and an ear that had changed to black when I published the compound. Once again, I their white color.

    There are also pieces of white around the edges. I deleted them.

    Here is a picture of the result after that I moved your mouth slightly and it red.

  • Rounded closed paths?

    I'm trying to round up a path of a triangle for that inside and outside each corner is rounded.

    applying some rounded corners through the options of race or the aesthetic effect is around the inside of a closed path.

    by aligning a triangle with rounded corners on another and then with the help of pathfinder at least isn't an easy solution because it will cause the thickness of the line varies unless the triangles have different sizes and angles rounded.  In addition, they do not easily align.

    is there a simple way to round off a path as there are to rounded corners?

    Screen shot 2010-11-18 at 8.13.31 AM.png

    Using (effect > Stylize > round corners) rather than to use the option of running rounds worked for me in CS4.

    Don't know why aesthetic effects did not work for you, I have not found any reason that would make that >.<. can="" you="" try="" the="" effect="">

  • Type on a closed path...

    Is it possible to have two separate instances of the text on the same closed path?

    I have an ellipse, and I want the text on the top and the text on the background, both read from left to right:

    FSB-Oval.jpg

    to do this, I had to create 2 individual ellipse paths and place them above the other.

    is it possible on track 1 ellipse to save a little time?

    The answer is Yes. I'll make a video and post it.

  • verification of the closed path

    Hi guys,.

    I'm new to scripting, I am able to check closed paths but I am struck in some problem.

    Whenever I have remove some segments of closed path and join leaving a particular outside a newly closed path segment done, my script fails to recognize the open path. attached screenshots.

    In the second image after you remove the segment I am not able to recognize the path which is a segment that has closed the access road.

    Here is my code:

    var thePathed = app.activeDocument;

    for (var a = 0; a < thePathed.pathItems.length; a ++)
    {

    app.activeDocument = thePathed;

    var aPath = thePathed.pathItems [a];

    for (var b = 0; b < aPath.subPathItems.length; b ++)
    {
    If (aPath.subPathItems [b] .closed is false)
    {

    Alert ("error in path name:" + aPath.name)

    }
    }

    }
    Alert ('check complete Path')

    Any suggestions on it's significant.

    Thank you in advance...

    Kind regards

    Annesh MRD

    I think I see what is wrong. You have changed the path in a way that makes a complex path not separate paths.

    Try this

    var thePathed = app.activeDocument;

    for (var a = 0;< thepathed.pathitems.length;="">
    {

    app.activeDocument = thePathed;

    var aPath = thePathed.pathItems [a];
              
    for (var b = 0; b)< apath.subpathitems.length;="">
    {
    If (aPath.subPathItems [b] .operation == ShapeOperation.SHAPEXOR | aPath.subPathItems [b] .closed == false)
    {
                              
    Alert ("error in path name:" + aPath.name)
                          
    }
    }
              
    }
    Alert ('check complete Path')

  • Opening of a closed path?

    To open a closed path, click on one of the points with the direct Selection tool and delete it.

  • continue a closed path

    Hi there,

    If I finished and CLOSED a path (pen tool) that I can continue it somehow? Scissors or knife it and then maybe continue? obviously something more simple than that would be welcome.

    If I finished and CLOSED a path (pen tool) that I can continue it somehow? Scissors or knife it and then maybe continue?

    Yes.

    obviously something more simple than that would be welcome.

    How much simpler can you get? The path must be broken first before you can extend it and have it miss the same path (adding external points to the middle section).

    Alternatively, if the end result must be a closed another path, you could simply start a new path that overlaps one and then use Pathfinder > unit on two tracks.

  • How can I fill between paths made by the Ellipse tool?

    Here is a simple example of what I'm working on

    Created using the Ellipse tool

    I would try to fill the spaces between the circles, as both left and right.

    By reading the discussions and assistance from Adobe, it seems that the best way to do this using the live paint bucket, so what I tried to do is select the paths, then click the selection using the pot of paint, but here is the message that appears when I do:

    Should what conversion I do to allow the filling between possible paths?

    What kind of paths are those ellipses that does not make them compatible with live paint Buck?

    Thanks in advance for you help everyone, it is much appreciated.

  • When describing a closed path, it is done or gives an inside line well, can anyone explain why the auxiliary inside

    At the moment I'm Exhibitor letters for router cutting, there is a line included. Then, when I turn this object in a compound path, that the result is as it should, with the outline and inline

    properly placed on the letters like 'o, e, d' etc. But then sometimes the compound path with no insert, like them ', when indicated, a line is also displayed. Looks like a lottery ticket for me.

    Can someone enlighten me on this mystery?

    After typing what is necessary, I create the vectorised text text.

    When you are finished, use the document information panel and check if all the paths are closed.

    With some fonts this is not always the case.
