• Profile of variable width Brush tool keeps resetting

  This problem is baffling to me. I'm relatively new to Illustrator, so I would appreciate help. I use Adobe Illustrator CS6 with a mouse, rather than a tablet of pressure.

  When I create a line using the paint brush tool, I hold on to contain a profile of variable width. For example, narrower at the beginning and at the end of the race, but thicker in the middle. Now I can do this by selecting the line, after that I did the race and choosing the fundamental definition of the brush in the drop-down list.  But if I try to draw a new line, the settings are reset again.  I can't create a variable race during the creation of the race. The definition of brush guard given to pt 5 round and accidents vascular cerebral width 1 pt. It would be much faster if the race remained as a profile of variable width I created features.

  I noticed the same problem with the blob Brush tool, except that it's even worse. With the blob Brush tool, the weight of the race resets always regardless of whether or not I try to define a profile of Variable width.

  I tried to uncheck "New Art has basic appearance" mentioned on another forum, but that has not worked.

  I know its possible because I've seen on this youtube video. http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=R5wW_65iAiU

  View the profile of variable width is maintained, like artists, raffles. It is not keep resetting.

  Thank you

  OK - I thought about it.  I was tried on a thicker line, but I guess this line had been created by the brush, or at least brush "3 PT round" had been applied to it.  When I clicked on the back of base, the designation of variable width appeared.

  Phew!  Thanks for sticking with me on this little stupid thing!

• How can I request a profile of variable width or brush to various traits of a length without them sculpting?

  I am trying to get an effect of line drawn by hand with an illustration that I do. I built my art with the pen tool and have tried to apply a profile of both custom variable width brush that I found online. They both look good on the longer path segments, but they scrunch on shorter paths. Is it possible that I can apply the brush or the profile of all paths and have the brush apply evenly along the way for its length and then just stop rather than try to up the ante on the path set any length it is? I use Illustrator cs6 on a mac with the mavericks.

  

  Thanks for your help!

  Apply a default line. Remove the profile of the wdith and brush

  Apply the "contour" effect

  Apply the "Scratching" effect with small values.

  In the Panel "Scratch" aspect should be below "shot of contour".

• Is it possible to apply the profile of variable width to the marks left by the form of task?

  Task form is selected.
  
  After having applied a blow on the work plan - the race of properties appear in the toolbar and are by default "uniform" for the layout Variable width profile.
  
  I select the profile second on the list.
  
  And draw another path.
  
  Yet, the same uniform contour.
  
  I realize that the form of the task creates a form shows - but surely there is always a "path" that is used initially to save the race. A Variable width profile cannot be applied to a Blob brush stroke?
  
  Why would I do this? I want to be able to sketch quickly, make the design of the characters and have a single shape to export Flash as a symbol of the head, etc.. I could use the tool brush and then object > path > terms of contour, and then use the Pathfinder Panel for unit all the traits described together form a compound... but it's too disruptive to sketch...

  If you want to create a blob brush object (with a match nil) less boring then a fat less then straight then double-click on your blob Brush tool icon and tweak the settings...

• Variable width profiles do not apply

  Jumped into illustrator this morning to simple line drawings. Made sure to uncheck new art has basic appearance. I have change the width of the stroke to any random value, choose a profile of variable width and draw. Profile width never changes. I jumped on one of my co-workers office and asked him to do the same. Same results. I feel like I'm overlooking something with this (latest CC) version, same results on windows 10 + 8.1 I've never had a problem with that in all my years with the help of Illustrator. Any thoughts would be great appreciated.

  Summary:

  selection of a variable width profile does nothing for newly created paths.

  What did you use to draw the lines? The pen, the pencil and line tool would work with the basic definition of Brush, but the brush is not.

• Preview of variable width images profile are to come in white?

  The profile of variable width drop-down menu of line profiles preview images come in white when I opened the menu.

  If I scroll the menu once it is open the preview images begin to appear at random until they have all meet.

  No matter what menu, I click on the top bar menu or in the window menu both have the same problem and I'm not having this problem with the signatures of the brush or color chart. Only the profiles of width?

  Here are the screenshots of what happens before and after.

  I would like to know if anyone has ideas of how to do to solve this problem?

  

  

  Thanks for the help.

  Joshua,

  I'm afraid that this is a known problem reported by many.

  I believe that our friends at Adobe staff are working on it.

• I have a circle of variable width, trying to figure out how to change start / end variation of thickness

  Hi all

  I was wondering how I do and still be able to change the starting point / end point thickness?

  

  In this screenshot, I try to get the starting point (point more thin) a little thicker.

  Can I change these profiles of variable width or? Any other / better ways to do it?

  Any help would be great

  Use the width. {SHIFT - W}

  

  Click the border, and then drag in or out to adjust the width. Drag the center point of the new width to place on a different, if necessary. Pressing DELETE will remove the new adjustment.

• bars of variable width in the bar chart

  I would like to establish a curve that looks like a bar graph, but I want to be able to specify the width of the bars. For example, if the user enters 0 for the x - min, 6 for the x - max and 5,000 for y - max, then I want to draw a bar that starts at 0, has a width of 6 and a height of 5,000. It seems that the options bar in a xy chart chart don't allow variable width, but rather centered around any value of x is associated with a particular value y.

  Can I do this without having to manually draw line vertical and horizontal of each rectangle?

  Here is my solution (excerpt from thank you to replace my local with a magnificent property node...)

• Variable width tool not work - cannot adjust the position of the points of width - Illustrator CS6

  Hello

  I'm having a Mare with variable width tool in Illustrator CS6...

  When I add points of variable width for a stroke I can't move the position of the decimal point of width. I watched several videos showing the width point slide seamlessly along the racing line - but I am unable to do this in my session of Illustrator!

  However, if I move the cursor width-tool on the end of the race only point, a (~) symbol will appear and I am able to slide that point only along the race. But this isn't a suitable way for me to realize the effects I'm trying since.

  I would be very grateful of any advice or experience with this issue.

  Thank you very much!

  When you create a new point width, you can move it in the direction of width but does not change its position. Howeven after the point is created, you can move your cursor near the point which is along the central axis of the race, to move along the racing line.

• How to remove points of variable width?

  I read a few methods to remove points of width variable tool on a path (NOT points of access path or paths.)

  None of them does not work for me; y at - it a trick to do it?

  I read: A) hover over the unwanted point (with var width tool) and positioning Delete and B) select unwanted point with var width tool and click on delete.

  The two movements cause the entire path being removed.

  Thanks for any idea.

  w

  Yes, this is how it works. Cclick to select after your icon changes (pointere with a tilde ~) and delete. If you have a single point of variable width, it may have the appearance of the deleted row, try aon a path with 2 points of variable width, until you get the hang of the present.

• Bug with the 'Variable width tool. "

  I tried the new CS6 Illustrator and using the Variable width tool, I found this was not accurate, at least the anchors appear somewhere else where I'm clicking on...

  I uploaded a picture. and a videoto clarify.

  It is a line with no other "width anchors", after pulling the handle, the anchor appears in another place where I just change the width...

  

  Yes, but as shown in your video, when all is said and done, you have the exactly width anchor point where you originally placed the cursor.

  I noticed a 'ghost' width anchor point appearing when I tested, but it disappears as soon as I move the cursor.  The anchor of width is created exactly where I initially put it-in this case, at the intersection of the guidelines:

• Limits of variable width of race?

  Hello

  I've been playing with and loving the novelty race variable.

  I have noticed, if I'm not mistaken, that a stroke must be aligned with the Center to operate...

  Is this correct?

  Also, I can draw with the pen tool or a pencil and change the width by using the variable width tool, but I can't change the width when you use a brush?

  Is also in fact, true?

  Thank you!

  Babs

  Yes. Achieve with varying widths, you can change a line to appear on one side of the path, if necessary, by pressing the keys (Alt/Option), addressing only one part of the race. But the Basic setting should be aligned to the Center.

  And

  A little. Art model brushes allow variable width, all the other brush strokes will not.
