Illustrator :: Default Rotate To Object Group Center Not Artboard Center

Nov 27, 2013

I'm sure this is mind-numbingly obvious and I am overlooking it, but when I go to use the rotate tool, the center point of the rotation is defaulting to the center of the artboard, not the selected group of objects. How do I change that to default to rotating on the selection center by default?
 
PS. This is Illustrator CC (17.0.2) on a Mac running 10.9, if that is relevant.

Illustrator :: Envelope Distort To Center Of The Object Only Possible?

Mar 14, 2013

Envelope distort to center of the object only possible?
 
How to achieve the effect shown in the image? If not with Illustrator what software can do this effect?
 
It's like an envelope distort but like the object (small circles) is not entirely wrapped into the envelope.
 
I tried moving the corners of the applied envelope towards the center of the object but it resizes the entire shape along with it...

Illustrator :: How To Rotate Object From Oval Center Point

Sep 6, 2012

I'm trying to create a border  similar to what you see here:
 
But I need it to be oval shaped. I tried using the blend tool, which works great around a circle but on an oval, the objects get scrunched together at the peak of the oval. How do you rotate and evenly space the objects around an oval?

Illustrator :: How To Display Object Appear In The Center Of Layers Panel

Feb 26, 2012

I have an illustrator file with several hundred layers and objects. If I select an object for targeting in the Layers panel, is there a way that I can get the object to be displayed in the center of the workspace. I currently have to zoom in and pan the document to see the object.

Likewise, if I select an object in the document, is there a way to have that object appear in the center of the Layers panel? I currently have to scroll the Layers panel to find the parent layer, and then drill down through the child layers until I find my selected object.

Illustrator :: Enlarging View With Selected Object In Center?

Jun 4, 2013

I have CS5.
 
In InDesign, I can select an object anywhere on the page and when I enlarge the view with Ctrl-+, the object is centered on the computer screen.
 
Illustrator does not do this.  But, is there some kind of setting I can click on to make this happen?  It would save me a lot of time to have this feature turned on, if it exists.

Illustrator :: How To Select Underneath Object

Aug 13, 2013

I'd assumed it would be "Press Shortcut Key and tap mouse" or something like that... but it's not. 
 
It seems the Command Key changes the mode of the selection tool, whilst partially, sometimes, enabling selecting underneath.  But it's terribly inconsistent, and means that the selection mode is changed if I do manage to select the desired object.  Is this how it works?

Illustrator Scripting :: Select ALL Objects Directly Below Object?

Feb 21, 2014

Is there a way to simply select all object directly below an objects?
 
I found this script here but it doesn't seem to work.  
 
//DESCRIPTION:Select Below
// A Jongware Script
if (app.documents.length && app.selection.length)
{
ypos = app.selection[0].visibleBounds[3];

[Code] .....  

Here's an example file. I'm trying to select eveything below the yellow polygon.
 
This would be very useful in another project with many small objects bunch together below many larger objects. I want to group the small objects that are bellow the larger object together without having to manually select each objects (there are thousands of objects so a script would be ideal).

Photoshop :: Pre-defined Crop / Select Center?

Apr 26, 2012

I have a movie of an object (actually a fly) moving left to right in a sequence of PNG files (around 100).I want to crop each single PNG file WITH THE SAME SIZE so that the center of the image is the center of the fly. The aim is to have the movement but having the fly "locked in the center".

For this I could use the crop or the select tool. My problem is the for the crop tool i can center the crop on the center of the fly but I cannot select a fixed size (like with the selct tool) and with the select tool i can select a fixed image size but i cannot center it on the fly's center. Hope i managed to express myself...

Is there a way to select the crop tool with the same frame size or to see the center of the select tool?? I noticed that once you select a fixed area the cursor position becomes the upper left corner of the selection.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Aligning Outer Object To Outer Path Of Center Object?

Jan 19, 2013

1. find the attached “Rays on Oval.png” file. (Tried attaching .cdr file but the File Size is 400KB.)

2. I would like to Repeat / Duplicate that Black Color on Outer Path of Oval Shape. (Like shown in the Yellow versus Black. The Yellow is a Circle and the Black is from Star Tool)

3. I think the Best Bet would be to Link the Rays to the Outer Path of Oval Shape.

4. I need the Rays and Oval as 2 Different Objects so that I could Change the Color Scheme.
