With pathfinder Illustrator subtract tool problems.

I used pen a tool to create a logo and then I brought to another file of a rounded star. I want to remove my logo on the form, but whenever I do, it subtracts strangely and all wobbly, not as I designed it. Any help?

OK, I see. Select and expand the star before subtracting. The rounded effect you have on the star is applied to the letter as well.

  • Pathfinder, line sharing tool, problem of forms is thiner and when printing

    Hello world

    I have some problems with drawing in Illustrator.

    I created an illustration where the shape is black and the details inside are drawn with white lines.

    However, I want my final artwork to be just black (IE white lines will be transformed in the form of "blank lines" using pathfinder > tool fracture).

    After using the pathfinder, it seems that my lines are now much thinner, as well when displayed on the screen and when

    print. Even if I try to do the original much thicker white lines, (like twice as big) once I use the pathfinder

    It still seems too thin, when printing and also when zoomed out on the screen.

    Anyone has an idea how to keep the same exact thickness before and after removing the white lines

    the black shape?

    Thanks in advance!

    telephage,

    Suddenly, I realized that your external path can have a stroke. You can remove that before using the trace of pathfinder solutions, or you can use a mask opacity as follows:

    (1) select all the lines, which can be traced or exposed and group together them.

    (2) to select the entire document and in the transparency palette flyout click the with unchecked Clip opacity mask and mask invert checked.

  • Problem with the Spot Removal Tool

    The last several times I tried to use the removal tool the place, he did not "heal" the area that I asked for it to heal.  He heals an area adjacent to the area I want to heal.

    Any thoughts on the opportunity, it's a LR bug or something is happening with my Macbook?  I would like to address...

    Note that I ALSO encounter this problem with the adjustment Brush tool.

    (I know I can do this sort of editing in PSCC but for simple stuff like this, I usually use LRCC)

    Thanks for your help! LJB.

    Change the Clone in the Heal and vice versa does not move existing pine. You will have to redo the brush stroke after changing between Clone and Heal.

  • Hello! I have problems with the Illustrator. Each of them is turning incorporated when I close the file.

    Hello! I have problems with the Illustrator. I link images, close the file, but when I opened again all the links is not respected and turn to the software! Linked images are PSD files, apparently without any problem. Anyone?

    Thank you, but the problem was simple: the box to save the file was with the option 'include linked files' and I do not understand. I never click on this option, but I discovered that my friend had clicked on this (we have both worked with the same campaign files).

    And as for the pdf compatibility, I thought this could be the cause of the problem and I have enabled sometimes and try to save it again, but it wasn't the cause. And Yes, the file remains much better with less than half the original size ():

    Thank you!

  • problem with the color picker tool

    Hi there we use Fireworks CS3 and seem to have problems with the color picker tool.

    When we hover over a color and select it, we do not get the same color. Sometimes, we choose a blue color and it translates into a green.

    Also when we have a color for example chabouni and reduce the color so something lighter, he returned to the Carter.

    Can anyone suggest what might be the problem.

    This has only started happening recently and nothing major has been installed or removed from Fireworks.

    See you soon

  • Cannot see the whole picture when you move into a smaller template with the direct Selection tool

    Hello!

    I recently got my laptop cleaned in preparation for examinations and such (I'm in high school). As I belong to art class, when Basic programs have been re-installed we also got the Adobe programs, but we got the CC 2015 version instead of the version CS5, we had earlier. After a stressful week, I finally had time to sit and work on my projects aside, but I quickly found a big problem which stops at my work. After re size the image at the size I want, I don't see the whole picture when I move in the smallest area with the direct Selection tool more. Photos I use are generally quite large, that I've tried to work with now are 451mmx338mm after the scaling down and I have a 'framework of standard departure' to 60mmx15mm (I make the bosses), so now I have basically has to guess my way toward a good composition...

    Can I make it work again?

    Click on the image and hold the pointer of the mouse for a while. And then drag.

  • This pen is recommended with Adobe Illustrator draw?

    This pen is recommended with Adobe Illustrator draw?

    It depends on your style of drawing.  At this point, I can wait a few days to see what Apple announcement will be on September 9.

    The latest version solves some problems with iOS9 and bluetooth, but there are so many different factors and pen options, you should try some yourself.

    Adobe has their own (Adobe of ink), but draw works with multiple options of builders.

  • Hi there, hope someone can help me with an Illustrator logo that I drew.

    Hi all, my logo looks great in Illustrator, but when I place it in Indesign it loses one of the elements...  I have a form with a gradient, there another element shaped inside, as well as two words. One word covers the edges so I used the scissors tool to cut the overlap. This is whenever I place this file, that the Word does not place with her! It drives me crazy. I have it together. If I copy / paste from Illustrator into Indesign, the slope becomes black. Please can someone help and tell me what I can hurt?

    You must select one of the letters in Illustrator with the direct Selection tool and then take a screenshot of the letter, the layers panel open and the appearance Panel.

    Also: it seems that you placed an EPS in InDesign. If Yes: don't. EPS is file format of the last century. It can and it will hurt you.

  • Removal of the track selected with the Lasso (Q) tool

    I am running the tool lasso through some ovals (diagram below), and I want to just delete these forms that I run the lasso tool, however, seems Lasso to select anything within its space tent 'bridge '.

    (I understand his choice of anchors in this form). Is it possible to choose the oval shapes only (fast) it seems that I must now select them individually (like a bird with crumbs).

    This is the direction of drag lasso

    lasso.jpg

    This is the result of the selection of this movement of lasso.

    I use illustrator CS6 Version 16

    BlueFire,

    I fear this is how it works (imagine your movement (part of) the lasso loop).

    For your purpose, you can better off ShiftClicking/ShiftClickDragging with the selection direct tool, hold Alt/Option If you want to catch all paths.
