Illustrator :: Recolor Artwork Dialog Not Replace Color Of Objects Filled Or Stroked With Pure Black

May 24, 2012

The Recolor Artwork dialog does not replace the color of objects filled or stroked with pure black, either CMYK or RGB. (Yes, with the Recolor Art checkbox selected.) The dialog will replace any other color, but not black. Not even a manually created rich black. Manually selecting another color from the Color or Swatches panel does change the object's fill or stroke.
 
This happens with both CS6 and CS5 under Windows 7 x64. I reported it as a bug on the prerelease site. Also not sure if bug reports are still being read for the released version.

Photoshop :: Stroked Path Non-vector

Oct 10, 2005

I create a layer and draw a path, and stroke it. But when I change the path, the stroke seems to be rasterized or so, because it remains with its old shape, and does not follow the path. I have never had this problem before, so I assume I must have changed involuntarily any setting - which rasterizes the stroke. Which setting of the path is it?

Illustrator :: How To Hide One Stroked-only Object Behind Another

May 14, 2013

I'm laying-out a white-only T-Shirt logo (to go on a dark-green T-shirt)
 
For the sake of simplicity, let's say I have two ovals with no fill, just a white stroke.  A small oval overlapping (on-top-of) part of the edge of a larger (underneath) oval.

Illustrator :: CS5 - Stroked Shape Becomes 2 Shapes?

Aug 22, 2013

I'm on a Mac running Snow Leopard: Using either Illustrator CS5 or CC: when creating a shape with a stroke, using the variable line width tool (which I love!), saving the file. When I re-open the file the stroke has become a shape itself, with many points, and the fill has become a shape with no stroke!?

Illustrator :: Rotating The End Point Of Stroked Line?

Jun 14, 2013

I am trying to rotate the stroke on an end point of a line that I've drawn.  Is there a way to do this while keeping the line in tact?
 
Before:
 
Desired Effect:
 
Notice the top point on this line.  I've faked the rotation that I'm talking about.  Is this possible to do without destroying the line, adding a white element above it to look like I cut if off, etc.?

Illustrator :: Trimming / Cut Away Part Of Stroked Square

Mar 13, 2013

I want to trim/cut away part of a stroked square...But it is not doing what I intend...
 
Please see my images:
 
What I am trying to achieve is that the the part (lat image) of the left square that you see slanted, should be cut away, so that the cut on the right be inline(45deg_) with the cut on the left...
 
I tried all the different cutting/trimming techniques but nothing does what I want..

Illustrator :: Blending Stroked Paths From Big To Small In Both Directions

May 17, 2013

I want to blend two similar paths. Both paths have dashed lines as strokes, and both dashed lines go from big to small dot, in decreasing direction. I want to blend both paths, so the blend goes from big to small, in BOTH directions. The ideal ending image would show the biggest dot at the top left corner, and the smallest, at the down right corner (the final project involves two spirals, but for the sake of simplicity, I attach two straight lines).

I try to blend them, and the blend only goes in one direction, as seen in the attached samples (in the sample, it goes from top to bottom, but it doesn't go from left to right). It seems that Illustrator takes only the first dot size, and applies it as if all the path has the same dot size.

Illustrator :: Pixel Perfect Stroked Rounded Corners In CS6

Oct 26, 2012

I cannot attain pixel perfect stroked rounded corners without a stray pixel being shown on one of the corners.  I need pixel accuracy for UI I'm developing (i.e. for screen, not for print).Here's what I'm doing:

1) New document, Align New Objects To Pixel Grid.  Document units are in pixels, and Preferences>Units all are set to pixels.
2) Create grey rectangle, something like 100x32
3) Set a 1px black stroke, outside
4) Apply Rounded Corners, 6px radius
5) Make sure you're in Pixel Preview Mode
6) Notice the one stray pixel in the bottom corner that is out of place at the edge of the round.
 
Here is a screenshot that shows my tests.  Note if I use Center Stroke, it seems to work at first glance, but then applying other effects (e.g. 3 px inner glow) are incorrectly applied (due to pixel snapping of the centered stroke).

Illustrator :: Erasing Overlapping Shapes - How To Cut Out Part Of Some Stroked Objects

Oct 3, 2012

I have a logo where I'm having trouble erasing some overlapping shapes? I'm using Illustrator CS5.
 
This is part of the logo: [URL].  I need to erase the white part of the hexagon that's showing through the cog and circle shapes, and I need to erase the part of the green cog that's showing through the circle.  The problem is that the cog and hexagon have been made using strokes, so every time I try and use the pathfinder tool the cog inverts itself and I get odd results like this: [URL].

Illustrator :: How To Get Uneven Distribution Of Blended Lines

Aug 19, 2013

Is there a way to achieve uneven distrubution of blended lines in Illustrator CS5? There was one other post on the web asking a similar question to this, which was solved by changing the blend spline.
 
This works great for objects, but not so much for lines.
 
Here is an example of what I am looking for where the top is what I would like to achieve and the bottom is the typical blend.

Illustrator :: How To Eliminate Uneven Edges In Fill Color

Jul 25, 2013

I have created a color gradient and the color fill has an uneven edge, which creates a small white space between the edges of the fill and the bounding box.  I have tried using shift+click to try and even the edges, but I guess that only works for using stroke tool or whatever.  You have to look closely because this image is not very large.  There is a slight uneveness on both the top (near the right side) and bottom (slightly left of center).

Illustrator :: How To Make Uneven (brush Stroke) Edges

Jan 17, 2013

I have a fabulous image of a painter's palette: [URL]
 
I want to show only parts of this image at a time, so that the viewer sees it in increments. However, I want to make the edges look more organic, like brush strokes, so that it looks almost as though the painting is being completed and the viewer gets to see the process.
 
p.s. I'm in CS2, unfortunately, so the bristle brush isn't an options

Illustrator :: Unwanted Gaps Between Exactly Fitting Shapes?

Nov 3, 2013

With shapes that are intended to fit exactly with one another, such as shapes created with pathfinder>divide I find often that there are very small cracks between the shapes and that these will show up if the shapes are exported to Photoshop in a more pronounced way.
 
What's the workaround to 'seal' one shape to another and rid the result of these gaps?
 
Joining the shapes is not an option as they are different colours.

Illustrator :: Pattern Brush With Image Without Gaps?

Aug 20, 2013

I try to create a patternbrush using an image. Image is created in PS and lines up nice horizontaly. Droping it into Illustrator. From there I drag and drop it onto the brush panel and create a patterbrush. I also include an empty rectangle to control the spacing ( suggested elsewhere ? ). If I apply that brush to a curved path there are always little gaps between the segments. How can I construct the brush without the gaps? There is a denimseam brush within Illustrator that does exactly what I try to achieve except I can not.

Illustrator :: 3D Extrude And Bevel Showing Gaps

Sep 20, 2012

I am trying to use the 3D 'Extrude and bevel' tool on a complex shape (a map of the UK)The vector is a compound path, when i apply the effect when its quite small it works, however when i increase the size of the shape the outline fails to render properly and hence is not filled as it should be, there are gaps in the image.
 
I have scale stroke and effects turned on.If i try to apply the effect on a version that is already the size i want it i get the same problem.

Illustrator :: Knife Tool Leave Gaps In The Shape (CS6)

Jun 11, 2013

When I use the knife tool on an shapeit leaves a gap where I slice. First I thought it was just an illusion in the program but it stays even after I've exported the image (both by "save as" in illustrator and "export" in inDesign). I've been careful not to move the shapeafter I used the tool so I don't think that should be a reason.
 
I've tried on different types of shapes like normal circles and more complex shapes. I've also attempted to start a new file from scratch but with the same result  What could the reason be? Is there a setting I should be aware of?
 
This is what I see in Illustrator:

And this is what the image looks like when saved as pdf (in illustrator):

It also looks the same if I place it in inDesign and then export to pdf.
 
EDIT: I don't know if it is important but the size of the shape is about an A4 or there about.

Illustrator :: Fill Gaps On The Edge Of Page Using Gap Tool

Jul 30, 2013

I want to fill the gaps on the edge of the page using the gap tool. I can see it is detecting some gaps but I was wondering what the custom gap option does? and if I could use it to close the specific gaps I want to close. I figured there would be a way using the pen tool so I drew a straight path across the edge and tried to join the paths together using command j but it didn't seem to work :/ I am quite new to illustrator

Illustrator :: 3D Ruined Artwork - Small Gaps In Between The Blends?

Feb 21, 2013

I started to use Illustrator since CS2 and done heaps of shapes using the 3d feature.ever since cs5 and beyond, ive encountered a problem when ever I import or copy paiste from illustrator into Photoshop my 3d shape tends to have missing blend steps. I'm setting it to 256 blend steps to get a smooth transition but when i import my Ai into ps or copy paiste it notice that it leaves some small gaps in between the blends. Now does this happen to any other users?

On the left is illustrator using 3d and on the right is the copy paisted/imported Ai file,ive put a red shape behind the yellow ace of spade to make it clear that the red is noticeable.

Illustrator :: Create Single Path To Type On Not Compound Path From Many Paths?

May 11, 2012

I have some negative space I created(black area, see first image) that I want to fill with type, not just a simple fill.
 
Basically I want to create the negative space from a bunch of small minus signs(-) that need to line up as they go across. If I type on each path one at a time as the text doesn't line up that way. This needs to be one continuous path. (see second image)
 
Unfortunately if I add them together, it creates a compound path, which you cannot type on, unless I am mistaken? So I need them to be a path, not a compound object.

Illustrator :: Convert Text Path Back Into Line Path In CS 5?

Jan 9, 2013

I've tried every permutation of copy and paste; I renamed the path to path. It looks like a path when I add stroke, but it does not behave like one.  I can't cut it or join it to any other path. It remembers it's text path status. I'm running OS X 10.7.5.
