Illustrator :: Maintaining Stroke Weight When Changing Path To Brush Stroke?

Sep 12, 2013

Is there a way or an option I am missing to convert my regular paths to a path stroked with a brush profile,while maintining the proper stroke width?
 
For instance, I have a regular line with a stroke of 5 and then add a brush profile, which then converts the original stroke to whatever the brush was made at.

Illustrator :: Stroke Weight Rounds Up?

Feb 10, 2014

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but every now and then, my stroke weight rounds up.  When I try to make the stroke 1.5 pts, Illustrator automatically rounds up the stroke weight to an even "2".  This is very annoying when I need the line to be 1.5.  
 
It doesn't always happen, but it drives me crazy when it does. what I've turned on, and how I can turn it off?

Illustrator :: How To Adjust Stroke Weight On Path

Jul 21, 2012

I'm unable to adjust the weight of a path. Here's a 40 sec video (no audio, 1920x1080) that demonstrates I know how to adjust the stroke weight on a path, followed by a demo of it not working when I try to adjust it:

[URL]....
 
Here's what I do in the video:

First, on a path that allows the change:

Select an elipse.Increase the stroke weight of the elipse.Control-Z to undo.Decrease the stroke weight of the elipse.The above demonstrates I know how to adjust the path weight (at least I think it does).Next, on the path that doesn't allow the stroke width to be reduced: Select path. Increase stroke weight to demonstrate it increases.Control-Z to undo.Decrease the stroke weight to .25 to demonstrate it does not reduce in size. 

What do I need to do to decrease the weight of the path I am trying to adjust?

Illustrator :: No Visible Change In Stroke Weight?

Dec 3, 2012

I am clicking on a line and altering it's stroke weight to numbers as big as 70pt, but the there is no visible change to the line! If I click off the line and back on it, it still says that it is 70pt, but this is not apparent! Have i clicked on something that prevents me from altering the line weights?

Illustrator :: Cannot Change Stroke Weight Below 0.0139"

Aug 28, 2013

I am using a Mac running 10.8.4 and Illustrator CS6, on new documents I can not get the stroke or line weight below .0139”. I set the weight manually but it returns to .0139”, the weight will increase just will not go below .0139”. Any document that was drawn in CS2 retains its weight settings and I can even draw new items and have any line weight down to .001”. I can not go that low in a new document. All setting appear to be the same.

Illustrator :: Ignore Stroke Weight Of Shape In Transform Box

Sep 5, 2013

I'd like to know how to ignore the stroke weight of a shape in the transform box. In other terms, to only consider the surface.

For example, I trace a square with no stroke, and measures 100mm. When I add a 1pt stroke on it, I would still like the transform box to display 100mm, and not 100,353 mm.
 
I'm working on Illustrator CC (64 bit), Windows 7.

Illustrator :: Path Shape Is Changing When Stroke Weight Changes

Sep 3, 2012

I got this error many different times and the problem still continues.
 
When I change the stroke weight from the Strokes menu arrows or by scroll, this action changes my path's shape and distorts it. You can see the problem below:
 
I got similar errors when scaling a couple of times. But this one looks just impossible to me.

Illustrator :: Auto Set Stroke Weight / Colors And Fill Color?

Mar 5, 2014

I'd like to make it easier for our 100,000 designers to use AI to make custom products using a laser cutter.
 
Current Practice
Designers open our AI laser cutting design templates, add their designs using the AI settings our online pricing system can read, then upload their designs to our website for instant pricing, making and shipping.
 
The Problem
Designers have to manually setup AI with settings that can be read by our online pricing system. If they get these settings wrong, our system can not read their designs. So they are rejected and can not be priced or made. This happens more often that you'd imagine.
 
The Solution
Designers do not like design rejections. So I'd like to eradicate them by providing our designers with a version of AI that provides the following settings only:
 
* Set document to RGB
* Stroke weight = 0.01mm
* Stroke colors = RGB 0, 0, 255 and 255, 0, 0
* Fill color = RGB 0, 0, 0
 
This will mean designers have a very limited number of AI choices, with nothing to distract them or to get wrong. Which will result in less (or zero?) design rejections. And products made faster than before. Rejoice!
 
Question
How do we program our AI laser cutting design templates so that when they are opened in AI, they auto set AI settings as defined above?

Illustrator :: How To Convert Text To Include The Stroke As One Entire Object

Dec 7, 2013

Hard to describe in a title, but here goes...
 
Let's say I have some text (black) with a black stroke on it. (It creates the look I want, without using BOLD.)
 
How can I convert this text to include the stroke as one entire object?  No stroke, just one entire vector shape?
 
(I notice if you import text this way into Flash, convert to a symbol and fade up from zero opacity, you see the fill as a different value than the stroke value - very annoying.)
 
Is there a Pathfinder command that I can use to fix this text?

AutoCad 2D :: Annotation Scale To Convert Mm To Inches

Feb 5, 2013

I created a new annotation scale to convert mm to inches and changed my DIMSTYLE to dimension to annotative as well, but when I go to dimension nothing happens. My dimensions, arrows and extension lines are still small.

What's more bizzare is when I click the dimension and right click properties, it says my annotation scale is 1:1 and it's not set to change to annotative even though my DIMSTYLE says to. So I have to manually click the dimensions and change them all to my DIMSTYLE and change the annotation scale.

What did I do wrong when I created the new annotation scale?!?!

AutoCAD 2013 :: Convert Units From Metric Mm To Imperial Feet / Inches

May 2, 2013

I received a .dwg file from S. Korea with dimensions and units all in the metric mm and I need the units to be in feet and inches. Is there a command to switch dimensions and units to imperial feet and inches? 

Rather than changing units in command UNITS Inches and Architectural, and SCALE 25.4, is there any other way to switch metric to imperial systems. Scaling somewhat does the trick but, provided dimensions remain in mm.

Illustrator :: How To Stroke Behind Other Stroke But In Front Of Fill

Jan 4, 2013

I have a shape with a black stroke and green fill.  I have a white line segment over it.  How do I get it so that the end of the line segment doesn't show over the black stroke of the object?  If I try to put the line segment behind the object, then the object fill hides it completely.
 
I'm new to illustrator and I've tried to search for an answer but I don't know the best way to accomplish what I want to do.  Seems like some combination of transparency or knockout groups and I've read a bit about this and can't figure out what I need to do.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Commands Only Work In Inches - Not Feet / Inches

Mar 20, 2013

Out of nowhere my AutoCAD commands such as line, offset, circle, etc will only work if i type in the amount in inches. I use feet / inches when i use these commands. It says specify second point... Not sure what this means. For example I want to offset a line 15'-8". It won't let me do that. If i offset a line at 146" it lets me do it.

Illustrator Scripting :: Apply Current Fill Color To Stroke Then Adjust That Stroke Color's Build?

Apr 9, 2013

I'm trying to figure out a way to automate a simple, yet repetative process I do countless times a day. Ideally, I'd like to tie it to a keystroke to speed up my workflow.
 
I work on line art and colorways for footwear, so the way I'm coloring these shapes and strokes break apart the different materials and pieces of the shoe.
 
While coloring line art, I work with Pantone spot colors as fills for closed path objects. I then have to manually apply that same color to the stroke, set the stroke to 0.5px weight, convert that spot stroke color to CMYK, and add 15% to the K value.
 
I found some code in an older post for applying the actively selected object's fill color to the stroke, but I'm having but I'm having trouble with the next step of figuring out how to take that spot stroke color and convert it to a CMYK build that I can then add 15% black to. Is this something that's even possible? I've spent about an hour playing with the script and have only had luck matching the fill color or turning the stroke white.

Photoshop :: How To Convert A Path Stroke In A Vector Shape

Oct 11, 2012

When you use the Photoshop CS6 new function stroke on the path of a vector shape, how can you convert the result in a vector shape ? Merging multiple vector shapes doesn't work. The strokes outlines are not vectorized in the new vector shape.
 
It's possible to convert in pixel and keep the stroke drawing, but no way to convert in vector. Illustrator has a similar function in order to vectorize the stroke.
