Zig Zag line problem
Hello
I would like to draw the Zig Zag line, but I want to start at the point-line "A" and end at point "B".
The image below is similar to the way I hold the line, but I would like to have this "wave" style I use Illustrator CS6.
Hope you can understand me.
Thank you!
- Draw a zigzag like you did, but with an additional cruve
- object > expand appearance
- object > path > add anchor points
- scale to get the width of the target
Now if you want the curve to a circle as you indicated, you will not want to use zig zag filter, but the step & repeat cirlces half.

Zig zag effect convert a path?
Hello
Is it possible to convert a path, a zig zag effect so that control points are at the end of the line zig zag instead of the original line segment? I'm trying to fix a zig zag line to another path so that I can include the path.
TIA
Object > expand appearance.
But you'll have more than just the end anchors.

I would like to create a wavy line (the zig zag feature is exactly what I need here) to the contour of the form and then fill it with a solid color. Any ideas?
It's about what I want; However the ripple needs to be rounder and less peaked
Barbara,
If you want to create a gap between the wavy line and the underlying object, you can:
(1) select the wavy line and object > decompose the appearance;
(2) the tick of the feature new appearance Panel flyout, let slip under the stroke of origin and increase the weight of the race as you like and change the color to white.
If you want to make the transparent gap, you can:
(3) select the wavy line and object > decompose the appearance and separate;
(4) select the path white and underlying object and in the transparency palette dialog box check do the with unchecked Clip opacity mask and mask Invert checked.
It can be done in other ways, too.

Hello
I found a movie to youtube on how to make a lace border. Exactly what I need!
He seemded quite simple how to do you do a strait at the border and apply the zigzag effect. then you duplicate the zig zag and once again for the 3rd time.
I can see how it does and it looks amazing!
BUT when I try to duplicate the zig - zag the 3rd time, Illustrator gets stuck "not responding".
I really need this border for my birth announcement
Pls help
Thank you

Hi Monika,
Yestarday I've updated Illustrator.
And I've been messing around with the zig - zag now all morning, I think I found my problem...
I really want to use a gradient of color on the lines...
I discovered that it works in solid color, but with the gradient, it gets stuck.
I managed, with a lot of luck, to get it in black and white ^-^
NVM the color of the rabbit, it must be green Mint...
Greetings,
Karin

Generate a Zig Zag model Challenge
I worked on the contribution of the image control fill patterns. Drawing dots and lines by using the image control funcitons provided can be slow, but write a Boolean array for values of a pixel of an image control is fast, so I built models using table functions. I found that creating a zigzag pattern was quite a challenge. I posted my solution and would welcome any ideas for improving the clarity of the code.
The rules are:
1. line thickness is specified
2 line legnth is specified (this is an arbitrary value of projects but is related one of horizontal or vertical for a Summit of the zig zag measures to the other.
3. the model must eventually run vertically or horizontally
4. the model must be lowered in direction x and y.
5. final size of array is specified
Here is a model of thickness 3, length of line 3 and spacing 3.
Altenbach says:
I just create a unit cell once (size of a repetition in each direction), then he tile in the final table.
That's what I've implemented here.
Best regards

I use Illustrator CS4 on a Macbook Pro with Lion mountain... the question.
The first time I used the zig zag filter today I had exactly the effect I wanted:
So when published to consider 15 peaks at 14, this is what happened:
I don't change anything either, but the number of crests by segement.
Then I tried to open a new document (thus also restart Illustrator) and creating a completely new line and applying the zig zag filter and got the same strange result yet. I compared my appearance Panel settings and everything is the same except for the appearance of the tile. I know it must be something simple that I forget but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is!
Your path has a fill. You went to an odd number of points at the beginning and end at the top of the zig zag, an evwn of points number to start at the top and bottom end. Illustrator is just auto fill a path open.

Line problem vertical screen satellite 3000
my laptop is Satellite 3000, it had vertical line problem now, I want to use an outdoor screen tube to replace the current damaged LED screen.
I tried to use the swap FN + F5 key, but it's still doesn't work, I tried to log into the system to check, ((windows xp) system is normal), but I don't see anything because the screen is black, it will not be in the system even if I have in connected to the local network, because the configuration of mobile network function is forbidden to communicate with the internet , (I ghost before it has completely damaged), the question is:
1, I have to configure something so she may use it outside the screen in windows XP? or just use the FN + F5 swap button?
2, how am I going to do next step if I want to use the external screen?
thx a lot
Hello
the first question you should ask is, if the machine works really well. This means that all THE drivers are installed and so on.
The other thing is:
When you connect the external monitor to your computer, you see something while turning on the machine? (Logo of Toshiba, Windows XP start screen, etc.).
Usually, you should be able to work on an external display, and if all drivers and tools (such as FN + F5-> change device display tool) are installed, then the "display" button should be possible.Please answer and describe if you see something that we can do some better troubleshooting.
Welcome them

Zig Zag effect - how is a segment of a circle calculated?
I have a perfect circle to which I applied the Zig Zag effect. I specified 2 ridges per segment. If I have reason to believe that a "Ridge" is the outer part high, I find myself with 6 ridges on my circle. If I specify 10 keV by segment, I get 22.
While Illustrator considers one segment on a circle, and other than error, how can I get a desired number of ridges?
Ridges per Segment means Points per Segment. Expand appearance and then count the points.
Then try again, but on the zero size slider.
In both cases, you will have 12 points; the original four and eight added (two per segment).
You have six "Star points" because there is a point to each hollow and every Ridge; 6 pairs of Palm and Ridge made six waves.

Hello guys,.
I have a MacBook Pro 17' Early 2011 model. It shows on the screen 5 red vertical lines and a blue vertical line. When the screenshot was taken, it does not show one of these vertical lines there. I'm so not if it's software problem or hardware problem. Help, please.
More than likely a graphic card problem/failure.

Image with my .iagonal 6 d line problems.
Hello, my name is Lindy and I'm new to this forum. I had a problem with my Canon 6 d which translates some of my images appear with a diagonal black line in the upper left corner. I have seen this problem with my L 100mm lens and my 16-35mm lens. If anyone has had this problem before or have any idea what can be wrong?
Thank you!!
Hi Lindy. You have a little 'dust' on your sensor (only in this case, it looks like a little hair).
It is easily fixed.
See page 279 of your manual owner who describges how to clean the sensor.
I do, however, is recommended that before making an automatic cleaning cycle, you remove the lens and point it at the ground - it's that this bit of hair has a place to go when she falls... other than to find another location inside your camera.
After cleaning, punch the camera a plain white wall (or ceiling) and take a photo (it doesn't even have to be developed). Dust looks better to the high apertures (it'll be more blurry at the bottom diaphragms).
Sometimes automatic cleaning is not sufficient and you need to do something more. If this is the case, then see page 283 for "manual sensor cleaning. This simply causes the camera to turn off the sensor, but open the shutter (and keep open) so that you can inspect and clean. If you look inside, what you REALLY see are the two filters in front of the sensor. The before filter is one that vibrates (using a piezoelectric effect) to "shake up" loose dust.
I use a variety of techniques... the easiest and safest is to use a fan simple hand - squeeze (bulb) as a Giottos Rocket Blower. I recommend that you use no compressed air cans, because the liquid propellant in the boxes can spray if the can is shaken or not held perfectly level and that leaves a residue on the filter (and the only way that come out is to wet - clean the filter). Even air compressors spray water and oil. A hand blower pressed is the safest option.
If this does not work, I use a small, extremely soft brush. They do actually brushes that plug in to release static electricity so that if something is stuck because of the electrostatic control will be released if all goes well.
If this does not work, I use a range of sensor to inspect my sensor and get a better understanding of why he won't not always free (because usually there now) and wet then clean the sensor using photographic Solutions sensor swabs 'brand' and 'Eclipse', cleaning solution. The solution is almost pure methenol which means it evaporates quickly and leaves no residue.
My guess is a simple manual cleaning (with the camera pointed at the ground) - or - a hand blower pressed will probably do the trick. If you use a brush, give this brush some good solid shots on the edge of a counter or table to shake the dust that could be on the brush - because you do not want to add to dust on the sensor you're trying to blow that hair.
More 'real' camera records (company mainly to sell stores and material service photo - not large areas that are also sell cameras) offers sensor cleaning, but there is usually a charge related to that. It is pretty easy to learn how to clean the sensor (which is why Canon has a section in the owner's manual) and it is something photographers have to do... only occasionally.

HP LaserJet Pro 1212nf busy line problem
I again, out of the box-printer-fax machine, and I have a big problem with the fax option. When I connect the telephone line cable, it opens the line and keeps it busy. I followed the procedure of connection and installation of drivers and software and configuration of fax options. Phone line is not direct, but is connected throgh Panasonic central phone (dial 9 for outside call). No other phones or devices are connected on this local line. I'm doing something wrong or is this a hardware problem? Fax pickups line even if completely off and without power cable set.
Thanks in advance
If the unit is off, he can't do any activity related to the FAX, so it is not question of hardware product with a problem. First, you will need to check your phone/junction line.

Dell E1914h little black line problem
Monitor Dell E1914h I have two problem has first the driver is not installed and showing the error shown in the picture, there are small black line on the right side of the screen, as shown in the last two photos below. I have the solution to these problems as soon as possible?
Hello
Thanks for joining us.
Let me answer your questions one by one
1. the error message on the driver could be due to the compatibility of the OS, just checked the drivers available, there is no driver for Windows XP I see is the operating system you are running.
You can close the popup and continue to use the PC as I do not expect the instructor to stop working without this driver.
2. the downside seems to be a task or dead pixels. You can try this monitor on another PC or another monitor on this PC to confirm the problem is with the monitor.
The fix for the problem 2 is to replace the monitor. Dell monitors to go with the standard warranty of 3 years. If during the warranty period, we can cover this issue.
Thank you

When you try to build the bar of the APK file and by using command line tools, I get the following error:
Error: MANIFEST. MF, invalid value ' ' for the name of the Application
I have addedapplication android: name = "bbapp" but it does not solve the problem. No idea what needs to happen to make this work?
I use android review 10 by following the instructions in the LABORATORY to DevCon 2011, etc.. BlackBerry guys in the lab had never seen this error before so maybe that's more a "optional" Android configuration which is considered to be 'necessary' within the limits of the generation of the file BAR?
I found the problem. Even if the error says Application-Name, the required manifest a label to provide. It is optional for Android, but apparently necessary for APK2BAR to work.

Android:label="@string/APP_NAME".
