Illustrator :: Type Switches To Black Regardless Of Fill Color In CC

Nov 23, 2013

Having trouble getting illustrator to assume my fill color when setting text. Each time I set type it reverts back to black regardless of the fill color I've set up. I can change it back once it's set but I'd like to illiminate the extra step. I've tried synching to my old settings but thats not working. It there a way to get it to behave like my older version where it just uses the fill color for text without reverting to black?

Illustrator :: How To Change Stroke Color While Retaining Fill Color Using Eye Dropper

Jan 6, 2013

I have a question regarding illustrator. Let's say I have a circle with blue fill and red stroke. And I place an image in the illustrator file. Now I want to change the red stroke of my circle to let's say a purple color by sampling the color from the image.

How can I achieve that with a eye dropper tool? Every time when I try to sample a color from the image, the whole circle will change to purple instead of just the stroke? I have tried multiple key combination, shift, alt, ctrl but they all don't work.

Illustrator :: Change Layer Selection Color From Black To Color?

Jan 8, 2014

Somehow I've turned off the color selection so that I don't have a color when I select a part of a drawing on a layer. The drawing area stays black whether I have selected it or not and I don't know how to turn back on the color.
 
how I can turn on the color again so that when I select a line it changes from black to red or magenta or whatever?

Illustrator :: How To Change Default Fill Color Palette In CS6

Sep 26, 2013

How do I change the default fill color palette in Illustrator CS6? Specifically, I am opening a a new brochure template and the fill and stroke boxes on the left side of the control panel just open with the "no fill" red slash box and the registration mark "bullseye".  I would like to have the default color palette load as if it were a new document.

Illustrator :: How To Add / Change Fill To Image

Jul 6, 2012

How do I add/change a fill to an image in illustrator?  I have binary tiff images (bitmaps).  In CS4 I could change the fill from the default black to any other color simply using the control panel or the appearance panel.  In CS6 it has no affect at all. 
 
In the sample below the the image originally comes into illustrator shown in black.  Once I update the fill to blue in the appearance panel, the image changes to blue (in CS4). 
 
In CS6, changing the fill does nothing.  Is there an extra step that now has to be performed?  This is not a problem with the image.  I opened the same image in both versions, followed the same steps and only have an issue in CS6.

Illustrator :: Dashed Stroke Not Working On Image Traced Image?

Mar 13, 2013

So I'm able to use the dashed stroke normally if I create my own lines or shapes, but I'm using an image that I have image traced, expanded, and ungrouped, and I'm able to change the weight of the stroke and the brush but not apply a dashed stroke or a different brush profile, but I'm more concerned with the stroke. I haven't forgotten the gap.. What's up? Does it just not work on image traced stuff?

Illustrator Scripting :: CS5 - Change Fill Color Of Selected Path Items

Apr 2, 2013

I'm trying to create a script in CS5 mac os10.6.8 that will change the fill color of selected pathItems. I need a simple script that will change a selected pathItem to cmyk values 2,3,15,0. I will then select this script and implement the action in a batch of 600 files.
 
I wish this process could be recorded as an action but when I record the action "add new swatch" I have to manually input the cmyk values, which will take forever for a batch of over 600 files.

Illustrator :: Eraser On Traced Image?

Mar 23, 2014

I imported the scanned image to illustrator and then used object->image tracer and converted it to a vector graphic with area fill and no stroke. So far so good.
 
I now want to erase little mistakes in the drawing, that look like this

if I use the eraser, this happens:
  
so the path is weirdly bend around the stroke of the eraser, which obviously isn't what I wanted to achieve. In all the videos I watched about the eraser, it worked fine and if I just create an area with the blob brush and erase a part of that, that works fine as well. What's so different with the traced image?

Illustrator :: Turning Image Traced PNG To Paths?

Jan 21, 2013

I am trying to make a crack wall texture effect on some text in illustrator cs6.
 
I have some crack texture photoshop brushes I really like, so I brushed on a blank psd canvas and saved it to PNG with transparent background.
 
I placed that in illustrator and image traced it so that it would create the paths for the cracked effect, but I can't seem to get it to make the paths for me.
 
I'm trying to do this so I can use the outlined brushes to erase the text layer with the traced crack png, removing the proper paths from the text layer so the text layer is now transparent where those cracks are.

Illustrator :: How To Join Two Image Trace Lines To Color Fill

Dec 26, 2013

I am a bit of a newbie to illustrator cs6. I have been using the image trace function so that I can edit my hand drawn pictures. I 'Place' the scan of my drawing and then go to Object>Image Trace>Make and Expand. The problem I have is when I want to join two lines together to close the shape (as below).
 
I have tried simply dragging the anchor points and reshaping the line so it appeared to be closed, I have tried closing it with the pen tool and I have tried to 'path>join' them but this box comes up.

I want to be able to fill my image traces with colour easily, can this be done?

Nov 4, 2013

I have traced an image and expanded it. I'm now trying to add the scribble effect to it but it does not work. I assume it's because it's not an object but I'm new to illustrator so I'm not sure.
 
The image is here: [URL] ....
 
I basically want to add texture to the black eagle only.

Illustrator :: How To Change Color To Rich Black By Manually Entering CMYK Values

Jan 18, 2014

I've had this problem before, and it randomly popped up again today.
 
This time restarting Ai fixed the issue the first time.  I just don't know if this was human-error/setting on my end, or a minor bug to report.
 
So I create a CMYK Ai doc.  Create some black text and/or shapes.  Then decide to change color to rich black by manually entering CMYK values (in this case, 60, 40, 40, 90), select ok.  However, the colors revert back to original percentages (75, 68, 67, 90).  
 
In past versions, it's happened once or twice, and restarting Ai didn't solve the first time.

Illustrator :: Fill Section But Using Fill / Stroke Only Changes Line Color

Feb 17, 2013

I traced an image earlier, expanded it then wanted to change the line colour. For some reason I couldn't get this to work even though I've done it in the past. So, I used the magic wand to select the line then dragged it into my new document and changed the line colour.
 
Now, I want to change the fill on certain sections, however when I change the stroke it changes the colour of the line and when I change the fill it changes the color of the line.

Xara :: Create A Copy Of Image With Ultra Thin Black Lines / No Fill

Mar 22, 2013

Executive summary of need: turn a color, line-and-fill Xara image into a very thin black line, no fills, no other colors.

I'm reproducing a 1930s - 1940s decal from a toy crib that we're restoring and repainting. The original decal on the headboard is deteriorated and flaking off, so I decided to reproduce it on clear inkjet waterslide decal paper. (White paper wouldn't work because of the open area between background ovals and the figure itself; here's the reproduced decal image - imagine everything not in color to be a clear area: )

However, since inkjet printing doesn't include opaque white, I need to manually paint white on the decal sheet behind the ovals and the figure to make the colors pop and to prevent the pink-painted crib background from showing through. I'd like to take the Xara image, copy it, then turn the copy into a very light black or gray line with no fills. This becomes guidelines for hand-painting

I'll print the black line version first on the decal sheet, paint white on it, then print the color version over top.How do I transform a copy of the original into my guidelines?

Illustrator :: Inking A Sketch With Calligraphic Brush That Has Black Stroke And White Fill

I am using CS5.5, and I was watching a video of someone using CS6  inking a sketch with a calligraphic brush that has black stroke and white fill. I am trying to do the same thing, but every time I select the fill color and start using the brush it goes back to "none" as the fill option. Is this a CS6 exclusive feature?

Photoshop :: Create Action To Change Fill Color

Nov 20, 2012

I will be working on a project soon where I will have to change the fill color and header overlay for about 128 images. I know how to create an action to change the header, but I don't know how to make one that changes the fill color. I have a list of each hex code for each image on a spreadsheet. Is there anyway i could create an action to read the information from that and create each image accordingly?

I would do it by hand, but I anticipate getting several projects of this type in the future, so I would like to automate as much as I can!

Illustrator :: Change JPG File To Vector And Change Black Linework To Red Using CS5?

Jun 28, 2012

Below is a .jpg copy of the Vitruvian Man that I bought on istockphoto.com. I would like to get rid of the gold background and keep the black line work. I would like what was the gold background to be transparent. I would like to convert this .jpg to a vector file using Adobe Illustrator CS5. To do this I assume I somehow use the Live Trace feature but I'm not exactly sure how.
 
I would then like to be able to select the black linework and change it to red. Does this mean I need to somehow convert the drawing into a collection of indivdual paths and anchor points? When I've used Live Trace before, I had the tolerance set to about 45 and Simple Trace. This indeed got rid of the gold background but gave me no individual paths or points I could select and change the color of. The only thing I could select was the image as a whole, not individual points or paths. It was the entire image within a box. This occurred whether I used the black arrow tool (Selection tool ) or the white arrow tool (Direct selection tool). If no, then how could I change the black linework to red?
