Illustrator :: Getting Rid Of Pencil Icon With Line Through It - Layers Are Not Locked

Jun 5, 2013

I only have one layer in the document - it is not locked.  I have already tried locking it, unlocking it, creating new layers, locking/unlocking those.I am not able to access Object>Unlock All.
 
I have done Hide All Layers/Show All Layers - so there is nothing hidden..I have even opened a previous project, and it has the same symbol on it and none of these methods of correcting it works either.  It printed fine on Friday.
 
When I create an entirely new document, the icon is still there.

Illustrator :: Draw Double Line With One Pass Of Pencil Tool?

Jul 7, 2012

In Illustrator CS6, I would like to draw these trails for a map I'm making. Is there a way I can draw using the "Pencil" tool where when I draw, it draws a second line next to it? Is there a setting for that?
 
Here is an old map where you can see the double broken lines. I know how to set it so the line has gaps in it, but I need a line to be the same next to it.

GIMP :: Unable To Move A Selected Pencil Line

Aug 9, 2011

On a new transparent layer, I have drawn a straight line with the pencil tool. I select the Box Selection tool to select the whole line that I just drawn. I switch to the Move tool and made sure to move just the selection.

At this point, I would think that I would be able to move the line but only the box that is shown by the Box Selection tool moves. The line doesn't move at all. However, when I tell the Move tool to move the selected layer, the whole canvas moves, including the line. Why can't I just select just the line and move it?

Photoshop :: How To Draw Lines Across An Image? [Pencil/Brush/Line Tools]

Feb 20, 2008

I need to draw a thin white line across an image, infact several lines in different places. The lines need to be permanent. I want to key in the number of pixels for the the thickness of the line and if possible key in the position of the line. I know I can use a new grid line to position a grid line, but how do I then turn that grid line into a permanent line where I can decide the width and colour? I'm trying to refrain from the long way round of zooming up to 1600% and physically using the rectangular marquee tool then filling the rectangal with colour.

Illustrator :: Missing BPS Pencil Tool

May 21, 2013

I've been attempting to install the Adobe Suite CS3 on my Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11. It installs fine. Any time I try and run Illustrator, it gives me an error message that says "Missing BPS Pencil Tool" and then it crashes. I have searched multiple forums, done a clean install of the OS, and even tried re-installing the software several times..

Illustrator :: How To Change Stroke In Brush Or Pencil

Jan 26, 2014

I don't seem to be able to change my stroke in brush or pencil. It keeps resetting back to basic stroke 1pt/basic/uniform. The only way I seem to be able to go around this problem is to first paint something and then select the stroke and choose the stroke width, etc., but that's too time consuming and very difficult to work. I am using CS 5. "New Art Has Basic Appearance" is unchecked.

Photoshop :: Unable To Paint 1 Pixel Brush Line (with Brush Not Pencil)

May 28, 2013

you can see what i mean in the following picture examples.
 
Selecting a brush (any 1 pixel) brush
 
[URL]........

shows my selection . Drawing a straight line
 
[URL]........
 
Zooming in to the line (600%) you can see i can draw a marquee through half of it ...
 
[URL].........
 
No matter what 1 single pixel brush i use this will happen... no matter which computer i use cs6 on and different copies of the installation.   Anyway have any insight into this?  frankly... it's somewhat limiting that i can't use the brush for stroking a shape if i need a pixel line and yet soft curves that a pencil won't get you.

Photoshop :: Artifact Line Above CS6 Icon

Dec 11, 2012

Notice the artifact line above the Photoshop CS6 icon after most recent update to Mac version? Here is a screen grab of the Photoshop.app icon in it's folder:
 
Notice the black artifact line above the icon. This is also visible in Launchpad icon and is much more noticeable. Not sure if it is just my system or something is amiss with the icon update for the retina display (this is on a non-retina display MBP 17" (late 2011) and a Thunderbolt display).

Illustrator :: Screen Anomaly When Using Pencil Tool (AICS5)

Dec 16, 2012

Since upgrading to a new iMac, I see a flickering square at the cursor, when editing a path using pencil tool and Wacom tablet. Specifically, it appears when holding "Cmd" and selecting a path or "Option" dragging along a path to simplify the path. I captured a screen video and to my surprise, the square did not appear. In it's place is either a red or black circle. I am guessing these circles are part of the AI interface that I do not see on screen. I have not found any preference or documentation about them. Review this video. You'll see the circle, but not the flickering square I see on my screen.

AICS 5 (15.0.2)

Illustrator :: Pencil Tool In 17.1 - Closed Path Doesn't Work

Jan 31, 2014

Draw closed paths with the Pencil toolSelect the Pencil tool.Position the tool where you want the path to begin, and start dragging to draw a path.After you’ve begun dragging, hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS). The Pencil tool displays a small circle (and, in InDesign, a solid eraser) to indicate that you’re creating a closed path.When the path is the size and shape you want, release the mouse button (but not the Alt or Option key). After the path closes, release the Alt or Option key.You don’t have to position the cursor over the starting point of the path in order to create a closed path; if you release the mouse button in some other location, the Pencil tool will close the shape by creating the shortest possible line back to the original point.it doesn't for me. after i start drawing and i hold the option key, it goes to drawing a straight line. i don't hold the key till after i start drawing lit says.
 
same thing with the connect two paths. holding the command key doesn't change the behavior of the pencil tool.i'm guessing there is no way of remapping the 'smooth tool' to option again? or was it moved to another hotkey?

Illustrator :: Stroke Resetting To 1pt - Uniform Profile In CS6 (with Brush And Pencil)

Aug 12, 2013

This was not an issue in CS5, and I can't figure out how to change it in CS6.  I like to Illustrate with the Pencil Tool.  I set the stroke to width profile 1 (tapered on both ends) and the stoke to whatever makes sense for my current project, and it keeps changing back to Uniform and 1pt.  I have tried to get my settings to "stick" with the Pencil Tool and Brush Tool, and have had no luck.  The only way I can change the stroke profile is to do it AFTER the stoke is made.

Illustrator :: Pencil Tool To Draw Shapes - Some Paths Not Smooth

Mar 20, 2013

I'm using the Pencil Tool to draw shapes (not good enough for the Pen Tool yet) and some of my paths are not as smooth as I'd like, so I go over them with the Smooth Tool, though it seems like it either smooths the path a little bit or completely changes its shape.
