View 11 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: Is It Possible To Lock Artboard
Nov 22, 2012I have a big artboard with a simulation of a webpage, and a smaller artboard within it, where I'm designing the artwork, so that I know how the big picture will look. In the end, I intend to export the contents of the small artboard. The problem is that whenever I click by accident on the small artboard, my view of the web page gets off-centre.So in short, If I could just lock the small artboard, that would solve this annoyance. For now, I have two options: either delete the artboard and set it back in the end (it's got to be perfeclty positioned though) or, quite practically, just create a custom view with a shortcut that I can use instead of the "Actual size" one (Cmd+1).
View 18 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: CS3 - How To Lock Pattern From Moving
Jul 28, 2010In Illustrator CS3 I often make new swatch pattern to use as a fill.
When I flll an object w/ that swatch, then copy that object, then paste it into a new file, the pattern has moved inside the object. When I paste the object within the original file I copied it, the pattern doesn't move.
How do I lock the pattern from moving or prevent it from moving? (Apple+ F or B) doesn't work.
I realized I could rename the file, save it, and make changes, as a workaround solution. I'm looking for something more efficient, however.
Illustrator :: Drag Global Color Swatches From Color Panel To Gradient Stops In Gradient Panel
Aug 28, 2012I have CS5. The bugs and broken features in AICS6, make it unusable in my workflow.
I am specifically concerned about the inability to drag global color swatches from the color panel to Gradient stops in the Gradient Panel. I use this method to update a gradient color because I find it MUCH faster than option-dragging to duplicate a stop color, then deleting the unused stop. Since I do this constantly, I find using CS6 very tedious.
Illustrator :: How To Toggle Layer Lock / Visibility In CS6
Jun 16, 2012How to toggle the layer lock/visibility in CS6 than in the earlier versions.
It seems that there's more padding around the lock/visibility icon, and you have to be really precise to click it... increasing the row size doesn't really make any difference, as the "padding" is still there. Wheres in the earlier versions clicking anywhere within the toggle box would enable/disable it.
Illustrator :: Lock The Centre Point Of An Object?
Mar 24, 2014I'm using illustrator (CS6) to animate a simple marionette type figure.
I'm using the Rotation tool to turn body parts around their usual connection points, moving the transform centre point each time. I'm wondering if it's possible to "lock" the centre point for any individual object to a certain offset from the object's actual centre, so that every time I reselect an object to move it I'm always rotating it around exactly the same place. I find that if I have to move the centre point from the real centre to where I want to rotate around every time, I'm not getting the exact same spot in relation to the object's bounds, which makes for some weird movements.
For example, the rectangle that makes up the upper arm should have its rotation point always about ten pixels down from the top and in the horizontal centre of the object. The elbow right at the top edge, but also in the horizontal centre, of the lower arm. etc.

Sep 19, 2012The first loop grabs the geometries drawn in the current document and rotates it around itself creating duplicates. The second loop is supposed to circumvent more geometries around the newly created geometries.
But instead of creating a radiant pattern, this code builds a tower: for the second loop everytime it grabs the last drawn geometry instead of what is in the "Original"
for NumPaths = 1 to frontDocument.PathItems.count
set myPath = frontDocument.PathItems.item(NumPaths)
For index = 0 To 30
set newPath = myPath.Duplicate
call newPath.translate(100*sin(6.14* index/30),100*cos(6.14* index/30))

Illustrator :: How To Make Circle And Line Ending (at Center) Lock And Move Together
Aug 13, 2013I'm new to Illustrator and perhaps it's not the best software of CS6 Master for doing this, but:
I have a few (13) circles, they are connected with lines (one line from the centre of a circle to the centre of the next one, so 13 connecting lines). I need to move the circles around in order to create the appearance that suits me best, but I want the connecting ending to move together (see picture below). I need to do this often and get an immediate visual feedback. How do I do it? Am I using the wrong software altogether?
