Why doesn't my live paint bucket?

• Question live paint bucket tool

  Hello illustrators.

  Its been a while that I used this tool. But I am facing a problem, I do not understand.

  I see some tutorials and I try to follow along I can't have the same functions of the tool, as demonstrated.

  My live paint bucket tool doesn't have the same options as the guardian. He can drag his arrows and get colors from the color palette, while I only have one available color.

  I have always to go to my color palette and choose a color in order for my forms to be filled. But when he suddenly comes to my shape coloring so no problem, I can slide and get my color

  selection. I'd like to use for my fill also color well to drag my arrows and see the available colors if it has meaning.

  The top image is what I'd like to achieve.

  The bottom image is what I have in my document of Council art. saw that one color is available, and I have to click on my palette of color for color. No sliding with the help of arrow keys is available.

  Thank you.

  

  Click on a swatch. The three places is related to the use of the color chart. Once you just mix a color in the color Panel, it will break.

• I can't select a single path after using the live paint bucket; Help please?

  Before using the live paint bucket, I was able to select the individual paths both to edit. Now when I click on one road, he selects each unique to the image path. Is there a way out of this?

  That's what I'm going to talk: (I only wanted to select the star, but the entire image has been selected).

  

  You should always be able to select the individual paths with the direct selection or group selection tools. or open the layers palette and hunt for him. or double click with the black pointer to break into the group.

• Big problem, changing the strokes live paint bucket

  Hi all, if in the first picture you can see the line once in work. When I fill out the face with a vibrant paint color, it changes the features and made them appear jagged varied widths, this is particularly obvious on the eyes, ears and hair - looks like it's the Pathfinder application > divide. I have the race null when I apply fill, please help!

  

  How about this?

  1 duplicate the lineart and place it below the layer and lock the original

  2 convert the lineart in a contour line by going to effect > contour line, then object > decaying appearance

  3 open the Pathfinder palette, and then select all and unit/Add it.

  4. all change no line and no fill

  5. Select all and then convert it in live paint

  6 deselect the converted path and start using the live paint bucket.

  7. after that expand and separate so you can pass the path to fill. you will also notice that it will remove all the path you have been converted.

  answer if it works.

• The missing in Illustrator CS5 live paint bucket tool

  The Live Paint Bucket tool does not appear in the Toolbox of Illustrator CS5. I looked at other threads which suggest to delete the file "Adobe Illustrator CS5 préférences". I did and it has no effect. There is no empty space in the palette where the button should be, she is just completely missing, as it was never installed (either its hidden somewhere I'm fairly new to Illustrator). However, I can create a "live paint group' using 'paint-make objects-live' in the drop-down menu in the menu at the top of the screen. It's just the button that is missing, so I can not color of the object. I don't know if it the button was always there that I only installed the software a couple of weeks. I needed just now. I have not yet tried re-installing of Illustrator. It's really a last resort. I use Windows Vista if that helps.

  Any help is very appreciated.

• Live paint bucket in CS5

  The help of Illustrator on a Windows machine running XP sp3 with an Intuos 2

  I use Illustrator CS2 for awhile and have upgraded to CS5.  I need help with a problem I am experiencing with the live paint bucket.    I select the illustration, go to object > live paint > make and get the blue bouning box.  I choose my background and outline colors and go to work.  It seems to work until I get a close-up view, around 800%, and then I noticed that the race is not filled in some of the traits completely (there seems to be some gaps in the path that do not arise in a normal display mode).  Outline of its artifacts leaving (I don't know what else to call them).  I have attached two examples of these artifacts.  I also tried to fix this with the selection tool paint Live which I am also having a problem with.  I took out the paint group dynamic and verified that all the paths of my connection and have corrected the problems that I can see.

  This did not help either.   Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong.  I consulted the help, and either I can't read with understanding English or... I can't find the right words to bring up the problem.

  Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

• AI5 live paint bucket tool

  I'm quite a beginner to Adobe Illustrator. I use the demo version of AI5.

  I scanned and created a work plan with my drawing.

  I have switched to dynamic painting mode, but could not find the tool live paint bucket.

  According to their instructions, it is assumed to be with the eyedropper tool.

  Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong or where the tool could be?

  Thanks a lot for your help.

  Scott misunderstood the query, the live paint bucket is under the form generator tool and above the tool rack perspective in the toolbar and the free transform tool below.

• Live Paint Bucket tool

  I'm new to illustrator, and I hope someone can help me with the living tool. I use CS5 on a mac. I watched several tutorials that show the live paint bucket directly under the eyedropper tool in the toolbar to one side, but I show a 'symbol spray tool' it instead. I can't find the paint bucket tool to live anywhere... any suggestions on how to locate this tool? Thank you!

  Perspective grid just between the tool and the tool free transform in CS5. The condition of the tool by default the form generator tool, and the live paint bucket is in the same group.

• Why aren't my live paint selection tool and direct selection indicating when objects are selected?

  In the document 'A', when I use the live paint selection tool click on a segment of my live paint group, this segment becomes "gray" or "pixelated" to indicate that I have selected it.

  In the document 'B', no indication at all when a live painting segment is selected.  It has the same appearance as a segment not selected.

  I am using the same tool & selection of segments in the same way both times.  I even experienced and pasted the same live paint group in both documents, to confirm that the appearance of the selected segments did not differ between the two documents.

  Even my regular direct selection tool is not indicating when a path or object is selected in the document 'B'.   There must be some setting or preference that differs between the two documents.    Someone has an idea it might be?  Also, is there a way to restore all the settings by default in a single shot, so I don't run into these problems of 'settings' elsewhere?

  I use Illustrator CS3.  I would appreciate any ideas!  Thank you.

  Doc 'A' - live paint Group segment is highlighted when I select with the live paint Selection tool...

  

  ... Again in the document seems mysterious 'B', the segment the same chosen as not selected!

• In stairway white borders on the live paint groups expanded

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with the live paint groups that I can't understand, or find a workaround for.

  I create all my lineart for the illustrations in Adobe Illustrator. I use the tool pen in combination with the line tool width to create the thickness of line. Once I finished all the work of the line, I select all and Expand. This translates not have refills for the areas of illustration that need to be colored.

  From there, what I do is select all > livepaint > make. I then fill in each area in a base color, using the Live Paint Bucket tool. Once finished, I have to select new all > expand. This leaves me fillings that I can choose indivually to apply gradients and work directly with.

  This process works fine until I have develop the live paint group. After developing, there is a thin white border around that meet two distinct colors. This occurs only after having developed, this does not happen when it is still a live paint group. I tried all the options in the window to develop and achieve the same result. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.

  I exported the work done in several formats (eps, .jpg, .png) and the lines are still there.

  I've included a picture to show the problem. (the Red arrows point to the issue of borders)

  

  If someone could help out with this it would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you!!

  Most likely, it will not be printed.

  It's a problem of how 100 K is rendered in CMYK mode with anti-aliasing

  Turn anti-aliasing off the coast in the preferences. If the line is still there: you have a problem.

  It is not there in mode live-painting living objects are treated as a whole.

• Problems with the Paint Bucket fill tool with Windows

  I've searched the forums from Adobe on this problem and I noticed that many of them are still listed as unanswered. There are a lot of good ideas out there, but I'm trying to fill in a form that I created using several strokes that are overlapping with a completely sealed space in which still cannot be completed. I can fill in forms with the form (ie. ellipse, rectangle, etc.) tool, but every time I have to draw a shape by hand or by using the online tool he still doesn't accept the paint bucket. I tried it on a Mac with Flash Professional CS5 (which is what I'm working with on my computer) and the tool works perfectly. Does anyone know what other parameters or options I which can be settled otherwise; the paint bucket tool with a selected color, Alpha for bucket at 100%, the Reading Gap size "close major gaps" or lines do not finish the form? Other ideas would be very useful... Thank you!

  The following worked for me: a high magnification zoom > try to click the lines instead of the empty space of void. I think programmers of Adobe has made some changes to the interactions. It's silly, how the behavior of click of this tool is, but it works. Try zooming in and clicking on the lines - do not forget to use TINY arrowhead in the fill icon. That's the thing.

• Help from live painting in CS5!

  I downloaded a sketch and put it in the vectorization. Everythings fine until I get to the part live paint. I click on the paint bucket and I try to fill the inner parts of the vector. It does not get through. He tells me to choose a symbol or a symbol instance. I'm really confused to what it is. I would like to have the black outline, I just need to figure out how to color in the drawing. I know that this is not well explained, but I hope someone can help.

  Thank you!

  No, Monika is correct, that you have used the tool symbol Stainer instead of the live paint bucket, fairly easy mistake to make.

  Below the red arrow is the symbol of Stainer, who tried to use it as well. Same error message.

  The blue arrow points to the live paint bucket opinion they are similar is?

  

  They are both hidden under the spray of symbols (red arrow) another under the tool shape (blue arrow).

  

  So you should thank Monika to be as alert and do a good job.
