For some reason I do not understand I cannot change the number of sides of a polygon by dubble clicking on the tool. For other tools (where you can change something) this is no problem and workes, but not for the polygon tool.
View 3 RepliesIs this possible? The polygon tool always reverts to 6 sides, I would like to be able to change that and have whatever No. of sides I choose 'stick' until I decide to change it again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedSay I have a square or a polygon. I want to transform one of the sides from straight to a smooth curve. Is there a way to do this?
I have the pen tool and I'm tracing an object. I want to create one curved side then continue on with straight edges. However the tool insists on creating 2 or 3 curves at a time.
Is there a way to create a single isolated or part of a shape curve thats adjustable with both endpoints. It seems that curves I create often are missing adjustment levers at one of their endpoints making it harder to get the shape I want.
I added 2 split lines to this polygon using the split polygon tool but the other side didn't split. how can i split both sides together in order to make it equally?

If I draw a rectangle and use Extrude&Bevel to create a 3D "box" shape, how do I wrap a single line of text around three of the sides? I've created a Symbol from the text, and it shows up in the "Map Art" dialog window's "Symbols" selection, but only one face of the 3D box is shown at a time. I was hoping to see a flattened box shape showing all six faces so I could accurately place the line of text. Similar to what you see when you revolve a path to get a 3D object.
It's even worse if I apply a bevelled edge to the extrusion -- then there are 40 separate "faces" to deal with.
I have a template for a marquee. There are 4 sides to it, so I wondered if there is a way to duplicate the artwork from the first side onto all other sides...without doing them individually 4 times?
So if I select the roof, for example, and insert artwork - can the other 3 roofs be 'linked' in some way, so they become duplicates automatically?
I've tried recording an action for copying, rotating, moving and pasting but it keeps coming up with an error about the Move function not being available.
I could be wrong though it seems Illustrator only has centre points of objects and not midpoints of paths or paths on the side of objects. Can this be?
If there isnt one, how to locate accuratly the midpoint of a rectangle (which is on a 10 degree angle) on one of the short ends?
I have also tried to draw a path leading from the centre point of the rectangle running parrelell to one of the long sides, although it's not like Sketchup that works out your trying to keep the line running parelell.
Is there a setting for extruding polygons so it doesnt leave the original polygon.
When i extrude a polygon into a 3D solid, it extrudes fine but it also keeps the original polygon which means i have to delete it?
Using illustrator CC, I want to curve the bottom line of my text upwards, but not have the top or sides move at all. Imagine of the text was something squishy, and I pushed it down onto the top of an arc. I've only been working with Adobe CC for about a week now. I've seen lots of examples of having the text follow a curved path, but they all curve the entire thing, whereas I only want the bottom of the text to curve.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to add an anchor to the left and right sides of a rectangular path at the exact same height. The easy method seemed: drag a guide to the right point and add the anchors at the intersection. But this is adding the anchors to the guide rather than the path "underneath" the guide? How can I place the anchor on the path?
Or is there a better way to achieve this?
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.
View 6 Replies View RelatedSetup 3 bar graphs (i.e. horizontal bar charts), with some data and text labels. Set them all in Type to Value Axis > Tick Marks > Full widthUnder graph > type, leave one as Value Axis: On Bottom Side. Change one to Value Axis: On Top Side. Change one to Value Axis: On Both SidesChange the stroke width and colour of these tick marks / lines the correct way - clicking twice with the 'plus arrow' Group Selection tool to select the whole group, and applying the formatting to the group.Update the chart, e.g. change the data or go into Object > Graph > Type and hit Okay,
Desired behaviour: The re-drawn tick lines should keep their assigned formatting like other groups in a graph.
What I actually see: The desed behaviour happens but only when the Value Axis is set to On Bottom Side. When the value axis is set to On Top Side, the tick lines are reset to an ugly default - 1pt thickness and pure black. When it is set to Both, the lines associated with the bottom labels keep their formatting, the lines associated with the top labels forget their formatting and revert to the default.
I'm trying to set up some chart templates that need the labels to be on the top side, and that need to be editable without losing their formatting. This bug as it stands is making this simple task impossible.
Is Photoshop CS5 available in Multiple Platfrom (for both PC and MAC) as my LR4 and PSE9?
I usually order a CD but this time I downloaded the program and was forced to choose windows or MAC. So, the serial number only works for Windows and not on my MAC which I use for travel.
I have a window schedule lisp routine that places a 6-sided polygon around text that label each window. I want to change the code so that its a circle instead of a polygon. Here is the code line that needs to be modified:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to make installation plans on climate ceilings, which are steel cassettes with Meandro tube element located where cold or hot water is flowing through.
[URL]......
Now it may occur that a cassette is given a code 700 which represents the type of cassette. If inside the cassette is placed a Meandro element its become a follow number eg 700-01.
It may also be that the same cassette No. 700 gets another Meandro element and because the cassette has not changed shape the number 700 remains the same but the follow number change e.g. 700-02.
At the moment I change the number in the browser,(inv2012) I therefore want automatically the iproperties ,partnumber and stock number, to fit. When I go to the BOM, the part- and stock numbers automatically will be placed.
The browser codes are not displayed in the BOM. So if I specify for change I only have to do so in the browser. I wanted to do so by iLogic but then ran into problems. I found a tutorial from Rob Cohee with ilogic so you won’t forget to fill in your iproperties.

I also wanted to do so with the iproprtie Stock number but get an error stating that I must declare the name. How must i declare a name.
Also i was told for entering the browse name in ilogic i had to use displayName, but I get a error stating that the name is Read Only.
So how can i, after i change the browse name, automatically fill in the iproperties ‘part number and/or stock number? Is there an ilogic code for?
I want my browser name using iLogic particular change to the part number. I fill in my iproperties, the part number. Then the browser name has to take over the part number.
But i get an error.
