Illustrator :: How To Center A Triangle Inside Another Triangle
Apr 10, 2013
So when I create a triangle by using the star shape tool and only giving it three points. When I have my triangle, I duplicate it and make it smaller. I center them both up on the canvas, but they don't look centered. As you can see in the picture provided, the bottom has more of a width that the others. I've tried using the alignment tool and the smart guides. I do resize the triangle using shift so it doesn't mess up the shape too.

[URL] I am trying to find the geometric center of a triangle, star and a pentagon so I can align Group Spokes and cut the shapes. What is Illustrators trick?
I do not want the center of the bounding box. I need the center of the shape. I once had this thread bookmarked for later reference but the link no longer exist.

I'm wondering how you would construct the altitudes of any triangle,so that you may find its orthocenter.I'm currently constructing three circles to find an altitude, based on this.

I am trying to create a pattern that I have created in previous itterations of Illustrator. In CC when I create a triangle (either via Star, Poly, or Pen tool) and then try to rotate it via Transform Each > Transform again, the rotation point moves according to what the bounding box would be if I reset it, rather than staying in one (original) spot relative to the actual bounding box and triangle. I cannot find any settings that would be affecting the rotate point in this way. I am pretty confident that I am using the same procedure now that I did in older versions of Illustrator. Perhaps I am using the wrong procedure.
Naturally, if you are rotating something around its center you should expect that it would end up create a circular pattern. It is more of a square with concave sides. The red is a perfect circle that I grouped to the triangle to demonstrate the rotate points movement. It is located in the exact center according to the align tools.

I'm interested in what generalized method you would use to create a circumcircle for any type of triangle; the first thing that comes to mind is: how would you find the circumcenter?
Right now I am constructing two perpendicular bisectors using this method:
• Select the triangle.
• Menu) Object → Path → Add Anchor Points
• Lock that layer and create a new one.
• Draw a line from one of the added anchor points to a corner anchor point.
• With the rotate tool: Alt+click on the added anchor point and rotate the line 90 degrees.
• Then repeat all of that to make another side's perpendicular bisector.

I want to create a right-angled triangle (just the three sides, no fill) where each side is a different color (say red, blue, and green). For generality, let's assume it's a scalene (rather than isosceles) right triangle. I want the weight of each line to be about 3pt. (But I guess that's not a crucial number. Let's say I'd like the sides to be 20 or 30 pts thick, for the thrill of it.) I know how to draw the three lines of specified width, make them different colors, and arrange them into a triangle. My problem is how to make the vertices (corners) look miter-joined rather than have them overlapping each other, which obviously looks terrible and like something an infant drew in Microsoft Paint. ;-) If I join the 3 paths into a single shape, they all become the same color, so I'm thinking I have to keep it as 3 separate lines (paths). The only solution I can think of is: Instead of drawing three lines of 3pt weight, draw three extremely thin rectangle shapes (about 3pt wide), one of each color, and rotate/position them so that they form the sides of a right-angled triangle. Then go in and do some visual surgery at the vertices to make the vertices look miter-joined.

When I try to create a triangle, I create a New Layer (Shift+Ctrl+N), then with that new layer selected, I click the Pen Tool and attempt to draw a triangle. I hold [shift] as I make the edges, so as to ensure they are smooth.
When I'm finished, I go to move the object I've just drawn, yet I am unable to do even that! It's as though Adobe does not recognize that I just drew an object, nor does it recognize that it is a part of a layer...
Now, if I go add text to that layer, I can move all that text around...but my triangle remains immobile. And to that I say, "wtf?!"
Same problem happens when I use the Line Tool. Code:

I found a toy which is belong to my brother's son in my grandmother' house. It is a Fire engines, and it has a adjustable Fire ladder，then I want build this things with maya, so ......the modeling is done, and then the problem comes out when I ready to rig the fire ladder, look at the pic below, let me explain:
1.there are three axle in red : A B C , blue things is base of axle
2.the green thing is the fire ladder
3.the yellow thing is a hydraulic push-rod which can be adjustable
4.the pink thing looks like a Skateboard, and hydraulic push-rod base on it.
5.the gray thing is a part of fire engines' body.
there is no problem if it has a fixed pole instead hydraulic push-rod, because I can just use a IK handle link A & C, but now....it doesn't work.

I`m trying to use max with DirectX 10. Dunno if i should or not but here`s the problem, there`s a tick box in the Viewport Config options for DirectX10 that says `Display All Triangle Edges`. Obvious I uncheck that because i don`t to see wireframe spaghetti. However it looks exactly the same, the wireframe triangle edges are still there. How else can I get rid of them as wireframe performace is actually a little better but useless because all of the extra edges visible.

I would like to create a triangle, but with (really) round corners. Not just the points rounded off a little, but the corners going around evenly like circles.
(see infantile free-hand drawing attachment as an example)
Is this to accomplish in an easy manner?

The attachment seems to be missing, so here's a link: [URL].......

I'm trying to make a dynamic block of a triangle, wich could react to enlargement of bottom corner. The main thing would be that the angle between corners never change ( that means when increasing the weight, the hight also increases.. ). Already for some time trying to do that using Strech action, but nothing works out. Maybe I'm using not that action tool?

I need to transform a rectangle part of my picture to a triangle, linearly, only with horizontal distortion, keeping vertical positions in place. (a rectangle to a triangle standing on its side, by moving the top corners to one point).
I tried the Cage Transform: the top of the picture seems good, but it also distorts the bottom line in this case. Other tools seem not suitable at all.

I made a triangle with the path tool, but then when I fill it with bucket fill the pixels either get filled or not filled. I want the original triangle, which doesn't lie on pixel edges but between edges ([0,16],[8.5,0],[17,16]), to be painted in such a way that if a pixel is partially in the triangle it gets partially painted. I'm working on a 17x16 size image.

I had to go out yesterday and measure an house indoors. Anyway the room is not square but sort of an triangle. I have measured 3 wall sides.
How to arrange them so that I get an triangle. I could draw 3 lines and then start rotating them till I get satisfactory result but can this be done any quicker?
