Illustrator :: How To Fill Paths Without White Space

Mar 5, 2014

I am just starting to learn Illustrator and am having an issue with filling an object. I am creating a box and when I fill that box the top acts as if there is a straight path even though there isn't.  Also the right side of the box cuts only fills diagonally.One with the paths, two with the incomplete fill.

Illustrator :: Permanently Showing Paths Without Stroke Or Fill

Aug 31, 2012

Returning to Illustrator after not using for a long time.
 
How can I permanently show paths created for example by the pen tool when I create them with no fill or stroke attributes - for example a set of contours?
 
If I set the view to outline (control + Y it does this but puts them on a white background meaning I can't see underlying layers.

Illustrator :: How To Combine Two Paths Into One Object - Fill And Gradient Mesh

Jan 20, 2013

I'm having problems getting what I want on Illustrator CS6. This is the shape that I'm working on: [URL]
 
I got two paths, one for the inner outline, one for the outer. I want this to be one object, looking just like that, where red is the fill, and black is the outline. Simple as that. [URL] - this is what i want.
 
So, the inner "circle" is not filled with anything, beacause my object is this "frame" outside. But since I have two seperate paths, I'm filling the outer path with colour, and I get:
 
[URL] the outer filling is red, the outside is transparent, which is good, but the inside is red because the inner path has no filling.
 
Right, so next I fill the inner path with white and it looks almost good: [URL]
 
But the inside is not transparent, it's an "illusion" and everything will be great on a white background, but that's not the case.
 
I want to convert these to paths into one object to behave exactly like I showed in the first image. Red is the fill, black is the outline. And I plan to use gradient mesh heavily on that shape, so that has to work to.
 
Bad quality, just doing some quick previews on Photoshop.

Illustrator Scripting :: How To Select 2 Paths With Action

Jul 17, 2013

I need to create an action. A simple one. The idea: One path is selected, a user runs the action, it makes a copy of that path, moves the copy, select both the path and its copy and makes a blend.
 
I tried to record that action, but Illustrator does not record the paths selection/selecting.
 
Even a simplier task: How, in general, having one path selected, select an item/path above or below it? And how to select them both?
 
I can make a script for that, but the requirement is to keep it as simple as possible: have an Action only without any scripts, if possible.

Photoshop :: Exporting Spot Color Channels As Paths With Fill To Illustrator

Mar 17, 2003

I need to send vectorized art to this company that only uses Illustrator. I have never used or even opened Illustrator. Ok, I'm very familiar with Freehand so I get the basic idea about vector. I have a 3 color logo that I have saved as a Photoshop DCS .eps file with the channels saved as spot colors so I can print separations with Pantone colors. According to what I have translated from the Photoshop guide what I need to do is figure out how to get my clipping paths of each channel to retain its fill when I export paths to Illustrator. I've tried and when I open the vectorized paths in say Freehand there is only lines and no fills. Do you guys have any ideas on how I can get these file seperations to this company with Illustrator?

Illustrator Scripting :: Any Way To Select TextFrames That Only Have A Fill Color

Mar 11, 2013

I have a script that will select text Frames, but I have come into a situation where I need to exclude any text frames that do not have a fill color. I do not see a filled Boolean property for character attributes or text Frames. 
 
This is what I used to select all text on all visible and unlocked layers. I dont see a way to exclude textframes that have no fillcolor.
 
if (app.documents.length > 0 ) { 
var doc = app.activeDocument;   
var numTextFrames = 0;   
for (  i = 0; i < doc.textFrames.length; i++ ) {
try { 
textArtRange = doc.textFrames[i];
textArtRange.selected = true;
} catch (e) {}        }    }

Illustrator Scripting :: Select Objects That Fill Color In Document

Oct 14, 2013

If i want select objects that same fill color in document, I can use 'select - same - Fill color' function in Illustrator.
 
It's so fast. below 1 second.
 
But, If i want make it in Javascript, I can't do it like fast.
  
for(i=0; i<activeDocument.pathItems.length; i++){...}
  
If document have 10,000 objects, above script can't finish in even 60 seconds.
 
How Illustrator can traversal fast?
 
Is there something other way?

Illustrator :: Object Layering Opacity - Fill Doesn't Block Out Object Paths Beneath

Jul 14, 2013

I am having some trouble with a file in Illustrator CS6. Within a layer, when I add a fill to an object, the fill doesn't block out the object paths beneath. For instance, say I have a square object overlapping a circle object in Layer 1. The square object is above the circle in the layer. When I add a fill to the square, the circle stroke still shows through the square even though the overlapped part should be blocked out by the fill. The square is set to normal visibility, and I have made sure that there are no duplicate paths that would account for what I am seeing. (I.e., it's not a case where there's a second identical circle path that is on top of the square, so that it remains visible in spite of the fill.)
 
Other details:
- I'm mainly working with a white fill, but the problem is the same with fills of any color
- When there's a fill color in the circle path as well, the circle's fill color *is* blocked out—just not its stroke.
- I have restarted Illustrator and restarted my computer and these have not changed anything.
- There are other layers within the same document where the normal layering rules work.
- I tried copy/pasting some of the problem objects into a new document, and in the new document, the fill works properly.
- If I move the problem objects to another layer, then the fill works as it should. But as I'm dealing with a number of paths, it doesn't make sense to create a layer for each to solve the problem.
 
I can't tell if it's a matter of working in too large or complex a file.

Revit :: Possible To Show Symbols In A Plan View

Jan 17, 2013

I'm currently looking into switching from Vectorworks to Revit due to a job application I'm being offered. What I really want to know is if the following floor plan is possible to make in Revit. I just want floor plans to be with color to better show the different things on it and make them more clear.
 
I also want to know if it is possible to show symbols in a plan view other than just a rendered hidden line view of the 3D part of it, so I can have a simplified version for the plan view and a detailed object for the 3D. Like you have a 2D-plan component for the plan views and e 3D component for all other views.

Photoshop :: How To Fill Paths And Draw Curves

Jun 3, 2011

where I can find the "/" short line shaped brush so I can fill paths and draw curves. If I make one brush myself, the final result would be pretty coarse, and need anti-aliasing of some sort. The line drawn by my custom made brush just ain't that smooth.

Also, I wanna have my line in gold color with the metallic feeling, other than green line. You don't have to write detailed procedure, just tell me where should I look.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Romans Symbols In Mtext Do Not Show In The Same Font?

Apr 4, 2011

When using TEXT or DTEXT I can add centerline, 1/4, or 1/2 symbols while using the ROMANS font. 

It would make sense to me that when I am using MTEXT, this should apply.  However when I try to insert the symbols this is what happens:  My text style stays the same, but the font gets changed to ISOCPEUR and symbols have a bold type appearance.

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.

Illustrator :: Auto Switch Between Stroke Fill And Fill

Nov 20, 2012

I spend 12 hours a day in illustrator and some functionality seems to simplistic and ultimately annoying.I'm using Windows 7 64bit. Adobe Illustrator CS6
 
1. Please auto switch between Stroke fill and fill when I select text. 99% of my time is spent only using fill on text. I would rather manually switch to Stroke when I want to add a fill to it rather having to switch to fill each time.
 
2. Same for Stroke, from point 1.
 
3. Add an auto layer for Guides. When I am using the Scissors tool, the majority of the time I don't want to cut my guides up, I would rather instead cut up the shape below it. Again manually changing the layer to select the guide would be preferable.
 
4. I personally never use the Eraser tool and I switch to the Scissors Tool. Without fail every time I launch Illustrator I have to switch from the Eraser Tool too the Scissors tool. Please add cookies or something so I don't have to always switch to the Scissors Tool.
 
5. Move "Align to Pixel" toggle somewhere outside a file menu.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Show 2 Grades For Cut / Fill

The project I am working on requires shoulders sloperd at -1.5% to -3.0%. Is it possible to set up an assembly and corridor to cut anything above -1.5% and fill anything below -3.0%?
