I need to be able to draw "squiggly" (multi-point)lines. Specifically, roads on a map. Is there any tool or plug in that allows for "squiggly" lines? The line/ curve tool seems to be limited to 4 points that act as reference points for curves only so it isn't any use to me.
View 5 RepliesI installed the new version of Acrobat Reader today, and they have a new splash screen. It is black and white, and has a killer pattern of squiggly lines, that look like vector curves, but they twist and turn and morph beautifully. There also looks to be a non vector drop shadow or maybe EyeCandy Corona on the lines. I have often seen geometric lines and patterns around, does anyone know if there is a plug in or proprietary software that will deal with this>? Was is it Illustrator Maybe>? Sorry if this is an off-topic post, but I thought it might be possible in Photoshop as well...SO if anyone has seen this new splach screen and can guide me as to how it was created, I would be greatly appreciative.

I have to draw hundreds of lines that have same start point. How can i do this?
I am trying to insert a picture but seem impossible for me. Sow i have lines with the same start point and different endpoints. There is a short way to do this. so avoid to enter the same start point for hundreds times or snap the the same point infinitely... what about Copy with grips or Change command in this case?
I have a very frequent need to draw lines that radiate out from a point on different bearings and distances. I think of this as a sideshot.

Civil 3D’s sideshot command acts differently. It draws lines between the radial end points.

Do you know what command is needed to do what I want? It is not the Create Line by Side Shot command.
I cannot produce Curved Lines (read: Arcs). I'm wondering if the capability to do this in the PSP X5 program is glitchy--perhaps requires a fix? Normally, I formulate short-cuts or 'tricks'--nothing has worked here for my purposes however.

Is there a way to modify the text insertion point of multileaders using lisp? We have a problem with some of our multileaders getting a landing distance set to a negative value. My lisp routine will correct these to a default value, but then the text jumps a bit. If I could get the insertion point prior to changing the landing distance then I could restore that point after changing the landing distance.

How to draw a line perpendicular on an arc at the a particular point?
I wanted to draw a line perpendicular to an arc at a particular point but couldn’t approach it. In this case, I need two snaps to work at the same time! To be perpendicular on the curve and at the same time to be snapped to the point!
I have a curved path I imported into Illustrator, and I'd like to draw a line perpendicular to the curve at a particular point.

i'm currently just calculating the angle at the point I want using the derivative, finding the angle, and then adding 90 degrees to it. But I need the line to be placed at a particular point, and the X/Y properties of the line are based on the ruler which isn't even in the center of the document (I want to position it relative to the artboard). As in, I just want to set the position of one endpoint of the line...
