The downward revision to the paths that lead to the chain of the object
Hello
So here's my problem, in collaboration with illustrator for quite a few years now but have had no formal training. My work is currently designing icons for various companies.
I'm working on canvas 24mmx24mm, single layer.
Often I want to collect the 2 existing icons to something more complex that I have one or two down as needed. However anchor points appear to develop a mind of their own when with these kind of scales, 30mm or less, as in the screenshots below.
Is there an obvious answer or solution to this problem? Is this something I am doing wrong? For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
See you soon,.

Looks like you have snap to grid of pixels on. You can disable that by selecting all and remove the check mark in the transform palette expanded and also in the drop-down menu of the transformation to the new palette objects do not have this attribute.
Now the icons are usually low res to work for digital, so you can keep in line with the pixel grid on. So when you do your bitmap (.jpg, .gif, .png) files they will look as they do in illustrator. This way your .ai file is designed to fall along the grid of pixels rather than duty be understood by going for the .ai format to format bitmap/web.
Well aligned to the pixel grid is very useful for web work especially on rectangles, I believe that the ellipses are one of the elements that do not work on. Someone that webwork on a daily basis, what else may give a further explanation.

Downward revision to the second, minute, hour proportionally timers
Hi guys,.
http://atstudios.comeze.com/flash_rolex/
I have a problem where I'm doing the tick of the needle of the hours, minutes and seconds correctly. I made timers with 1000 ms, 60000 ms and ms 3600000 initially and it worked but I tried to accelerate, so I divided all 3 in proportion,
However, when I did the minute hand and hour hand starts way canvas to mattress too early compared to the seconds hand. Is there something that I was wrong in the downward revision to the milliseconds?
import flash.events.MouseEvent; import flash.utils.Timer; import flash.events.TimerEvent; // Create objects to display var watchFace:WatchFace = new WatchFace(); watchFace.x = stage.stageWidth/2; watchFace.y = stage.stageHeight/2; addChild(watchFace); var hourHand:HourHand = new HourHand(); hourHand.x = stage.stageWidth/2; hourHand.y = stage.stageHeight/2; addChild(hourHand); var minuteHand:MinuteHand = new MinuteHand(); minuteHand.x = stage.stageWidth/2; minuteHand.y = stage.stageHeight/2; addChild(minuteHand); var secondHand:SecondHand = new SecondHand(); secondHand.x = stage.stageWidth/2; secondHand.y = stage.stageHeight/2; addChild(secondHand); var beginButton:WatchStart = new WatchStart(); beginButton.x = stage.stageWidth-25; beginButton.y = stage.stageHeight-25; addChild(beginButton); // Add event listener to start watch beginButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startWatch); // Create timer object var secondTimer:Timer = new Timer(1); var minuteTimer:Timer = new Timer(60); var hourTimer:Timer = new Timer(3600); // Add event listener timer secondTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tickSecond); minuteTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tickMinute); hourTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tickHour); // Start watch function startWatch(e:MouseEvent):void { beginButton.visible = false; beginButton.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startWatch); secondTimer.start(); minuteTimer.start(); hourTimer.start(); } // Second tick callback function tickSecond(e:TimerEvent):void { secondHand.rotation += 6; } function tickMinute(e:TimerEvent):void { minuteHand.rotation += 6; } function tickHour(e:TimerEvent):void { hourHand.rotation += 6; }
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

No, you don't need to change anything, except how you set tickMinute and tickHour.

all the research that lead to a result of site 'https' in "this connection is not approved.
I was getting messages that update failed, I think that this has been caused by Lastpass update. I tried a refresh and my problem started. Tried to uninstall lastpass and FireFox then download Firefox (37.0.2), still have the problem.

I'm running a 2011 mini mac environment. Please help I use FireFox for many years and many computers and I like it.
Thank you!

Why is my PATH variable change just after I put it in the paths that I want?
I use the set command to change my path variable and verify that it has been defined with the path command. However, soon as the path is defined it somehow be returned automatically to another sequence of paths that I did not specify. My path variable that is changed immediately after I put it?
Hi Chris,
Using the 'SET' command in a command prompt is temporary and exists only while the command line is open and may not affect the programs running outside the command line.

So, I need to create a spiral which is a cross between the linear spiral and the normal spiral. I try to be five lines just as far away from each other, but would be akin to the way a spiral looks when you use the spiral tool. I'm trying to create a piece of graphic notation (music). I'm at roughly the research to create the same thing that composer George Crumb created with his piece "Spiral galaxy", if you google you will see what I mean. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Derek,
To complete what Chantal, assuming that the 1 cm is the total width covered by 5 lines:
(A) if the original form of the spiral should be in the Center (the center one):
A1 object) > path > Offset path 0,5 cm (5 mm);
This will give you an a path closed;
Deselect a2) and with the direct Selection tool ShiftClick, both end of path segments and remove them;
This will give you a path offset on each side as well as the original;
A3) object > blend > blend Options set spacing of the steps specified in the step 1.
A4) select all the paths and the object > blend > make.
You can object > blend > Expand to have real paths if you wish.
(B) if the original form of the spiral must be in one of the sides (the exterior or interior):
B1) object > path > Offset path 1 cm (10 mm);
This will give you an a path closed;
Deselect B2) and with the direct Selection tool ShiftClick, both end of path segments and remove them;
This will give you a path offset on each side;
B3) remove that unwanted/useless.
This will leave you with the desired offset path and the original;
Object of a4) > blend > blend Options set spacing of steps specified with 3 stages;
A4) select all the paths and the object > blend > make.
You can object > blend > Expand to have real paths if you wish.

Hello Adobe community.
I'm a newbie to Adobe Illustrator and I am currently working on some homework for my class. I use the latest version of Adobe Illustrator (creative cloud 17.1). I try to use the function less front of Pathfinder and I get an error message: "the filter yielded no results. Please select two paths that intersect. "I created three identical shapes directly above the other. The very high shape was slightly offset to the left. I put in all forms and tried to use the plan less first and got the error.
This is the tutorial I'm trying to make:
I'm trying the first step 4. But I can't go forward until I get this error. As you can see in this tutorial, there will be a lot of use with the plan less first function.
Thank you!!!
Waterman, please start a new post with a screenshot or supporting details so we can even try to answer your question. Guilty plea include what version of Illustrator and operating system you are using.
We need to know exactly what items you have. You can have a mask, a net of gradient in your article, they may not overlap and the list goes on.

How can I have a path that is in the front and the rear of another shape?
I have an elliptical shape with a path that dress. The path has a tip of arrow and applied back. I want only the tip of the arrow head to go behind the elliptical shape and at the back of the arrow rest on top of the elliptical. The problem is, I tried the way by cutting with scissors and he applied the arrow head and towards the two newly created paths. I remove arrow and make a simple line, send the way before that was cut at the back so it goes behind the elliptical shape, and to join the two paths and apply to arrowhead again, however, now that it sends the path before forward?
How can I do this?
I-this is essentially a vidoe of the fact, except Monika I use the Eraser tool because I think it's a little easier to understand and do.
Also take note of the stacking of the trajectory of the copi circle which is important.

Find that amendments may not remove the object
Hi all
The Find/Replace dialog box is adjustable to the object, and I can pick up successfully for objects of open plot line .5pt and stroked with black color. But, I can't delete them.

Noob question Guides/anchors are not 'on' the object that I create
I know that this is probably an arrangement that I don't get the sense... but here's my problem.
When I create an object, the access/guide/anchor point path is not 'ON' the object I create... 'floats' outside this object... Instead of being on the object, like everybody else I see in tutorials, etc.
Take a peek inside
all the objects I create seem to have this... so when I try to move the two parts of the whole flag... they have a buffer zone between them... and I can not move together to overlap.
Thanks for any help...
I am usiing Illustrator CS6 incidentally...
or... and it sounds silly... you are not an accountant to have a white line around the objects on a white background. as... zone "buffer", you describe. It's just a vascular accident brain, right?

Compensate for the path - stroke inside the object
Hey,.
Is it possible to use the lag path to define the scope of an object? My journey always ends inside the object. I have attached a picture of what's going on.
Thank you!
What seems to be the case there is that you have your background to the same color as your race, so when move you the shape, all you are able to see is offset fill outside the original shape, making it appear that the race is offset on the inside. Make sense?
When you use the object-> path-> offset path, you create a copy of the desired shape. When you use-> path-> offset path effect... you will just move the selected path. Maybe what you are looking for.

Changes in LV 8.6 with the placement of the object while that paste from the Clipboard
Hi all
I noticed a change in behaviour of LV 8.6. When I want to place an object on the Clipboard (constant or terminal to the block diagram or control to FP) in earlier versions, that I could make a click at some point and after Ctrl + C the object appeared to this same position. This is useful if you want to place a control in a FP-specific or component within a structure on the comic. This does not work in 8.6 more and I find it very annoying to collect the object to the center of the window. Is this a bug or I have not found the box in the Options dialog box? I understand that it makes it easier for novices, but this very useful feature of collage predetermined's too bad to remove this feature.
