• 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.

• 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 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.

• 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.

• Keep not selected (\) line Segment tool

  Hello, I use the latest version of Adobe Illustrator CC and can not start a new line with the line of a previous line segment tool.

  If I start again from one edge of the line point, move from my line from the line is still selected.

  In the previous version of Illustrator od the line was comic and disabled instantly what was allowing me to continue to draw the line on the edges of the first.

  Line Segment tool does not include the option 'Keep selected' as the pen or the brush so I can't enable or disable.

  someone has an answer how I could get this line automatically disabled after drawing it?

  Thank you

  If you choose: display > bounding box (Cmd Shift B (Mac) or Ctrl Shift B (Win)), you can continue shooting without moving the line just created.

• 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.

• A question pretty basic pen: what do I do when I let the handles in the wrong place and they interfere with the next line segment I want to do?

  What happens to me all the time: I'll be tracked something in AI (CS4, Mac) using the pen tool and I find I left the "handles" in a place that ends up being incompatible with the next line segment I want to do. Generally what happens, is that I made a curve and then I want to do a straight segment, but I can't do it without putting in a strong shot. Like this:

  

  How do I either stop doing this in the first place or correct when it arrives?

  Mary,

  If I (put) understand it, you can just press Alt/Option (so that you are always mousing down) and drag the handle back in the anchor, then let go and click or ClickDrag the next Anchor Point.

  View > guides are your friends saying anchor when you are there.

• 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,.

  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.

• 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.

• 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!

• VM upgrade with Update Manager - how to tie yourself to the base line of tools

  I'm upgrading from the tools of Virtual Machines on one of our servers ESX - ESX8.

  There are several virtual machines (10-20). I tried to reach the default baseline provided with vSphere (VMware Tools upgrade to Match) on the ESX Server and the VMware tools to upgrade, to Match database does not appear.

  The vShpere update #2 video series shows the user using a folder it created in the virtual machine and discovers patterns with all virtual machines of Xp in a folder.

  He joined upgrade VMware tools to Match base and scans and corrects all Xps.

  If I go to the virtual machine and view models and I see short folder Vms, VMs, templates, etc.

  But the associated virtual machines seem to be in alphabetical order and not in an order that associates them with ESX8.

  If I create a folder under the folder open VMs and try to move the virtual machines associated with ESX8 in the folder, it does not work.

  I even tried to create a new database and tried to add to the game, but always VMware tools upgrade not can link it to the host.

  Is there a way to get the Update Manager to work at the level of the host with the host ESX8, so I can join VMware Tools upgrade ESX8 game database and update tools?

  Otherwise, the update of all virtual machines manually by connecting the base to each line take very long.

  Thank you

  Create your custom (depending on model and VM) folder, move the virtual machine and fix the base line here.

• Why the Dreamweaver files locked and cannot be changed?

  I tried to open files in Dreamweaver and it tells me that the files are locked and cannot be changed. I don't know what to do to unlock the files.

• Why the Illustrator export is resized my work?

  So, I have a blue square in Illustrator, with a race of black 3px 640x480px, aligned inside. But when I export and open it in Photoshop, as if by magic the size is now 641x481px. And Yes, I export at 72 dpi and with anti-aliasing turned off.

  Why does that happen? I can't use these images for my project if the size of the pixel in Illustrator is not reliable.

  Why,

  You must have the corners to values whole point/pixel; You can get it that by inserting some integer X and Y values in the Transform palette.

  In this case, with an even number for W and H, there is no need, but if not you must check one of the corner first reference Points.
