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.

  • How to set the starting point of a variable width profile anchor point?

    Hello

    I have a square with a dotted on her. I can't be a variable race, so I loaded 'Width profile 2' in the profiles. The problem I'm having, is that Illustrator uses by default to start the biggest points in the lower right corner, and I would like the "starting point" to be in the middle of the line, if you know what I mean. I'm always happy for the dotted lines start big, then gradually decrease in size, but I want to control where is the "beginning".

    I have attached pictures to show what I'm working with.

    Thanks in advance!

    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...

  • 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!

    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.

  • 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.

    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".

  • Lightroom does not apply lens profile automatically

    Hello

    I use Lightroom CC based on MacOS.

    Unfortunately, Lightroom does not apply the profile of my SIGMA 150-600 mm F5-6. 3 DG OS HSM p014 in development mode, but shows the lens correctly in library mode. All other lenses (CANON) are applied automatically, so it seems that I have a configuration problem. Lightroom shows that the profile cannot be detected automatically and cannot be applied. In the list of lenses, I can choose the target and that the profile is applied.

    Support said that this target is not supported. I can see the attached list of the answer all lenses supported by lightroom. And guess what, the lens is in this list. Detective Conan.

    So the support team has done a worse job, and did not check the list. I described that I can choose manually, but the response above was the answer.

    Any ideas how a.) the coup support team for doing their job and b.) help me with my problem.

  • Deploy and host not applied after you restart car profiles

    Just started playing with Auto deploy and profiles of the host, all of this work have to expect one thing.

    The profile of the host is not applied after you restart, the profile is selected but not applied.

    If I choose 'Apply the profile' Server applies the profile, take this into maintenance mode and it works as it should.

    This should not happen automatically after reboot? And what files newspapers can I look to fix this?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Yes. You can attach a profile - even if the host is a host running VMs - worms and you can take a look if it is already compatible or not, before it is put in maintenance mode and apply the profile settings. You can even attach a profile to a cluster if you do not need to click on all hosts.

  • 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.

    A border must have a style, the specification of the width and the color-

    }

    Change as you see fit.
