CorelDRAW X6 :: Alignment Guides Doesn't Match With Guidelines And With Dynamic Guides?
May 27, 2013What I mean:
Draw an ellipse. Skew it with mouse.
Draw a rectangle to allign with ellipse's outer dimension by Alignment Guides (not by Align and Distribute command).
Now the aligned side of the Rectangle must be tangent to the ellipse BUT it's not! To verify, try to search an intersection point. Draw a Guideline and snap it to the rectangle's aligned side. It must be intersection point between Guideline and Ellipse but there isn't...

Photoshop :: Accurate Placement Of Guides [View>New Guides]
Feb 13, 2008I have a number of vertical and horizontal guides to be placed, at different points. Is there a better way of placement rather than zooming up on the ruler area, watching the Nav coordinates and dragging and dropping? I'm really looking for a method which will I can key in the actual placement coordinates in some way, and the guide will jump to this point?
View 6 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Can't Extend Construction Line Across Both Viewports To Snap Them To Construction Line
Dec 24, 2011Everything is on one layout/sheet.
Currently there are a total of 3 viewports in an L formation. The fourth viewport, will go in the upper right. But first, I have to get these aligned.
I think the viewports themselves are fine enough. The problems arise because the model is in Model space so, construction line (as far as I can tell) didn't want to snap to a line, (on the model,) in Paper space.(vertical or horizontal) So, I can only see the construction line, in one viewport at a time. Which means, the construction line is not visible in the viewport immediately to the left. So, I can't extend the construction line across both viewports, to to snap them to the construction line.
Illustrator :: Tracing Building Construction Drawings
Jan 14, 2013i want to do some scanning of drawings of rubble masonry wall in section export it as a dwg file in autocad, and then work and modify in autocad. However when i use the live trace command, the trace is wrongly done. for example there is a straight line having thickness 2 mm.
illustrator traces it as a rectangle having a width 2 mm. what should i do so that a closed circle sketched on a paper scanned into illustrator is traced as a single circle by recognizing the centre of the sketched path rather than 2 concentric circles placed apart at a distance equal to the thickness of my real life graphite pencil .?
Illustrator :: CS5 - Snap To Guides?
Feb 4, 2013How do you get Illustrator (CS5) to snap to guides? I don't want to use smart guides -- just regular old-fashioned guides. I drew a rectangle. I divided the path into a grid. I turned the grid into guides (make guides). But I cannot get anything to snap to the guides. Also, can I control the snap distance (like you can with smart guides)?

View 6 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: Creating Artboards From Guides
Jul 5, 2012I am working on a large wall sticker and I need to "slice" the image into pieces for vinyl printing. Is there anyways to place guides (or slices) and have them be converted to separate art boards for printing? In the past I would make individual art boards the exact size of each object and save them one at a time to send to the printer. Then once the art came in I could piece the wall art back together as I applied it to the wall or glass, But this is time consuming.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: In CS6 - Smart Guides Don't Appear To Be Working Correctly
Nov 30, 2013I'm having some trouble with smart guides in Ai CS6. They are on. However, when my cursor intersects a guide path, words like 'intersect' and 'guide' do not appear, as I have seen them do for others. Also, the 'heads-up' information display that shows the width and height, e.g. when using the grid tool, does not appear either.
The guides are working to some extent, it seems, since I do get green lines here and there.
Illustrator :: How To Resize Shape(s) That Has Been Drawn Using 3D Guides
Nov 24, 2013I've created a very basic shape using the 3D grid as my guide - picture if you will 4 boxes, one on top of each other (as per illustration below):
Each "box" is made up of 3 shapes to give the 3D effect.
I need to resize one of the boxes, the yellow one, which needs to be resized in keeping with the 3D framework (making it smaller in height), and then placing the yellow box above the purple box. How this can be done without having to redraw the shapes in the required positions.
I might add it is the grouped shapes that makes up the box which I am trying to resize in one hit, as opposed to the individual shapes.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: Snap Proportional Drag Scaling To Guides?
Aug 31, 2013Draw a box. Draw a Guideline. Have all snaps on. Including "smart Guides".
Drag proportionally (by holding down SHIFT) the size of the box... and it won't snap to the Guides.
How can proportional scaling be down by dragging, and have Guides and other nodes, vertices, anchors, "smart Guides" etc actually functional as Snap positions?
Or Adobe figure there's no need for accuracy when proportionaly scaling?
Illustrator :: Align To Pixel Grid - Unable To Put Guides
Oct 10, 2012I currently have grid setup, and I am unable to put guides specificly where I want, they will either be a few pixels to the left/right of where I actually want. It seems like my guides or rectangles that I make only snap to the grid, and I do not want this to happen since some of my shapes do not fit a grid specifically. Lets say I want my rectangle to be 4.5 Grid blocks (each block being 25 px), so 112.5, it only allows me to do 4 blocks or 5 blocks. Is there a preference that can be changed so I can make free shapes without having them direct on the grid?
Attached an example. I'm trying to make the red box the same width and in the same position as the black and it does not let me.
I guess I found my solution, under the transform fly out menu when "align to pixel grid" is unchecked it fixes this.. Is there a better way to do this though?
Illustrator :: Can't Move / Select Diagonal Guides When Zoomed In 600%
Jul 1, 2013I'm working on a few objects I have to divide using diagonal guides. However, when I try to select one of them above 600% zoom, I'm not able to activate them using the selection tool or the direct selection tool. I can select them using the layers panel but as soon as I zoom in above 600% and try to move them with the selection tools they get deselected.
