Keep not selected (\) line Segment tool

• Line Segment tool does not select the last line! Why? CC 2015

  I regularly draw several segments on the right with the line Segment tool, then convert them to a live paint. This often requires that lines are tangent or overlapping. In CC 2015 the last segment of the line remains active and the line segment tool switches to a tool "to rotate/move", by drawing a line tangent or closely placed impossible without '' if. '' How can I disable this 'new' and return to the line Segment tool I like in CS 5? Yes, I am trying to embrace the new, he does not cease of themselves in the way of productivity.

  You can not turn it off. Ask us for an option you can disable 'Keep selected', as you can for a brush.

  Feature requests are CC 2015 in the Help menu.

• line segment tool, how to repeat automatically last brush size used

  I'm drawing with the line segment tool.  When you draw a line with the line segment tool, you can adjust the shape and the size of the line by selecting in the palette shapes.  However, every time I draw a new line, the beginning of the line back to the original size, and then I have to reselect the type / size of the brush again thereafter, it takes time, how I set up where she remembers the last type/size brush I used. IM on illustrator cs5 passing.

  Go in the appearance Panel, and in the dialog box, deselect new Art has basic appearance.

  This option is enabled by default, because many users unwilling to stay with the same brush or the appearance that they have applied the last time and who usually want tou know that this option is enabled by default. There was a time I think in CS or CS 2 where this is not checked by default.

• Cannot be joined lines when using the line Segment tool

  So unfortunately, I've updated to the latest version of Illustrator Cc (V19.2.1). And to my horror, I can no longer draw a line (with the line segment tool) then draw another line, coming from the previous those anchor point. When I try to shoot immediately. He's trying to turn the line rather than create a line joining... anyway to change that or am I stuck with it?

  (Also, I use windows currently..)

  I don't know if you can say/see/see in the video, but here's the process that I'm following departure using the line-drawing the line-> > segment trying to draw a line from that anchor point (and that is the question, when I'm doing it automatically, it assumes I want to transform the line)-> changes to the tool selection and clicks on the line to deselect-> goes back and finishes object, repeating the process.

  Help me please... I'm desperate...

  It is these new life forms, a few disadvantages too with the rectangle tool, ellipse etc. tool.

  to go back to the old behavior

  Object > shape > expand the form, do a deed for him, or do what I did a hotkey (Windows 7).

  Edit > keyboard shortcuts > Menu commands > object > shape > expand the form , then in the first box to the right click in it, select and press a key on the keyboard, I choose F9, OK and name.

  It's an extra step, having to have a finger on the mouse and the other on the keyboard for each line. but I can't think otherwise.

• Now shift isn't snapping line when you use the line Segment tool

  I could be wrong and it has always been like that, but when I take a shift to rotate a line created by using the line Segment tool turns is more degrees as I thought that it used to. I checked and it works always with the Rectangle tool, but not when I traced a line. Guides and snap to Point are both on.

  Is much more annoying when I'm dragging an end point and it will remain at an ideal level of 90 or 45 angle... but nevertheless it remains valid this angle when I paint, just do not change.

  Matt,

  You are not alone.

• Line segment tool design everywhere - why?

  With the help of Illustrator CS6 on a MacBook Pro.  Very strange behavior of the line segment tool - when I click and do slip, I don't get a segment of the place where I started at the point where I finished.  Instead, I get several line segments, each with one end where the then slide began it and the other left ends in a trail that runs through every point I did drag the mouse through.  (It's easier to show than to describe.  (See below.)

  The polygon tool works normally.  Therefore, the spiral tool and the pen tool.  But the line segment tool, arc tool, polar grid tool and tool grille rectangular all make this "creeping" effect - very annoying.

  How can I stop this from happening?

  Here is a picture showing what I mean:

  

  (It's actually a pretty cool effect if that's what I wanted, but it is not.)

  ... No, my tilde key seems fine.  Any other ideas?

  That's the problem, Illustrator think you press the tilde key, doesn't matter if you're not or if the key is fine. Apparently something is not very good with the entrance of this key in Illustrator that could be attributed entirely to Illustrator but in any case the diagnosis should be in this direction and Steve's suggestion is a good first step.

• Why the Illustrator line segment tool cannot do a.5 pt?

  Why the Illustrator line segment tool cannot do a.5 pt? When I create a line at 90 ° or 180 ° I can't do the thinner than PT race. 1, even if I create the line first and then try to change his race. When I create a line at any other angle I can make the thickness of line I want to by changing the line weight. What I want is to make the line segments which sont.25 ou.5 pts, but least Illustrator will do is pt 1 even if I select the line or rectangle and try to change a.5 ou.25 pt. This same problem exists with the rectangle tool when I create a rectangle oriented at 90 ° or 180 °, but if I rotate the same rectangle what whatsoever other than 90 ° or 180 ° I have then the possibility to change the thickness less than 1 pt. Any ideas what's happening?

  Select all the objects and in the Panel processing uncheck snap to grid of pixels. Also if you want, uncheck this option for new objects in the transformation Panel menu.

• My line Segment tool does not allow me to draw a horizontal line?

  I must have pushed one or the other button, but I don't know which!

  I use CS5 and now have a small arrow on my tool (as shown in the picutres) line segment:

  

  Since that when I click on update, it just allows me to draw vertical lines, rather than vertical or horizontal.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you in advance!

  This is the cursor in the perspective grid. Disable the perspective grid.

• How to draw a line (with the line segment tool) then draw another line, from those previous anchor point. When I try immediately draw another line on the other anchor lines it try to turn instead.

  I'm following a course of basic fundamental illustrator on Lynda. The video of "draw straight lines" is troubling me. They draw a line with the line segment and then draw another line coming out the anchor point at an angle.

  Here's where it is troubling me - when I try to drag a line to the anchor point trying to transform the first line, I drew. (the line cursor turns into a selection tool) I can't draw another line connecting the first.

  Advice would be great because it's driving crazy me.

  See you soon,.
  Kyle

  Yes, it is irritating. You must clear the previous line first. If you want to make sure that both ends are perfectly aligned, start by turning on the guides. If you want two lines to be part of the same way, you should use the tool pen instead.

• In Adobe Flash cc, is there a way to keep the 2 lines (pen tool or the line tool) which cross each other anchor at the intersection?

  I often use the tool/line pen tool and when I have the curve the line with the Selection tool it often crashes on nearby vector lines. Is any way to stop this? In Adobe Illustrator crossed lines drop anchor (at least for me).

  Is it possible to change it? or is there another tool pen / I do not know will not be the anchor on a different line whenever he touches?

  Hello

  You can use these tools in drawing mode of the object (available just below the color sample of fill/outline in the tools Panel when a drawing tool is selected) where several objects create the intersection points. But please note if draw oneself which intersect the lines then it will create an anchor point.

  Thank you!

• Drawing with the pen tool or the line Segment tool

  Hello

  I have need of tips and tricks to draw the design of a singlet. What is the way most appropriate for the task? What should I draw the line one by one, or create a model brush to draw? Please refer to the image as an attachment for a better understanding. Thanks in advance.

  

  There is a lot to address the issue. Myself, I will draw all the basic shapes with the pen and shape tools (there really only 5 different forms in the main design), application of rounded corners effect according to the needs and duplication/reflection needed to reproduce the layout. So I "would make the cuts" on the forms by using additional objects... many positioned with step & repeat and/or mixture... and apply Pathfinder operations.

• Convert a line segment to a line of pen

  I have a problem with several illustrator files that I get from my students. We use Illustrator to cute objects and some students using the line segment tool to create lines. These lines look like simple lines in illustrator, but after importation in our cute (lasermate v5) software, they become rectangular forms. My quenstion is, if there is a tool or a way to convert these forms in individual lines/box lines.

  I hope that makes sense, English is not my native language

  

  I have a solution. When I save my file and check the box "keep transparency" all lines remain simple lines.

• Why can't I apply a gradient fill to a line segment?

  I created a line segment using the line segment tool. Then I changed the brush in arrow. I select the arrow and and drag the gradient shade I want to the described area to change, but it just turns black. I am able to change the arrow to any solid color, but not gradients. I have attached a photo if this will help. Sorry if this is not clear at all. Any help is appreciated!

  I would say just to develop the arrow, and then fill, but that's just me.

• Behavior of strange line Segment

  This is a question about Illustrator 10; Sorry, I know it is old, but we have to work with her... We are working on a PC - Windows XP service pack 2.

  I can select the line Segment tool and draw lines as expected; the problem is that whenever I draw a line segment and apply the arrow heads, I can draw no longer segments of line without arrowheads. I've exhausted the help system and have tried everything to reset the line segment tool, but nothing works. If I want a regular line in the diagram segment I'm working, I have to create a new drawing, draw a line, then copy it & pick up the the other drawing, then copy it and paste it for all of the lines that I need without arrowheads.

  I'd appreciate any help to solve this. Thank you

  Dan

  Yes, that can be a pain in the thigh.

  Use the drop of the appearance palette and select ' new art has basic appearance. »

  Use 'clear appearance' or "reduce to the basic look" in the same menu to remove the arrows of a line segment, you already drew. Note that 'clear appearance' will remove any style also.

• Anchor points of line Segment

  I want to draw with the line segment tool.  When I want to add a line segment to another segment of line an anchor usually shows upward I know the lines are intertwined with precision.  For some reason any anchor point is not underlined, and the lines are intertwined with precision.  Do I have to activate this feature somewhere?

  funwithphi,

  This looks like a tick toggle view > comments (Ctrl / Cmd + U). You had a mishit keyboard.
