Illustrator :: How To Increase Cursor Tolerance For Grabbing Anchor Points

Nov 16, 2013

I've been wanting to increase the tolerance that Illustrator has for grabbing anchor points. I don't want to have to be within two pixels or so to be able to highlight or grab an anchor point. I've tried upping the selection tolerance to 8 px and it hasn't appeared to do anything.

Photoshop :: CS6 Clear Anchor Point

Feb 6, 2013

Clearing anchor point so that it's cuts the path line also to the next anchor (like point to point, cuts segment of path) not the whole path.
 
Sometimes it works using delete or backspace But no clue why does not always work ?

Photoshop :: CS5 - Anchor Point For Cursor Seems Off

Jan 20, 2013

It's like the anchor point for the cursor is way off. I can click paint brush, and the paint will show up halfway across the page. If I keep clicking, the painted spot will finally show up under the cursor and I draw. If I move the cursor, and start again, same problem. If I enter text, the text willl appear so far below the picture, I have to zoom out so far, the the picture is a very small square. I grab the text box and move it back up to the picture, zoom back in and finish. If there is more text, I just duplcate the layer, so I don't have to go through the drill again.

Example: [URL] .....
Same problem with drawing a line. I click on the start point, and the line draws itself, off page to the left: [URL] ......
 
My video drivers are up to date, I'm working in Win 7 and CS5

Photoshop :: Moving An Anchor Point

Jun 5, 2008

I have created a path using the pen tool. Of course, to get things right I have to move some of the anchor points. I believe that I should be able to do this by holding the Control key down while using the Convert Point Tool. Sometimes this works just fine, and other times the whole selection moves when I try to move the anchor point.

What is the exact procedure for moving an anchor point? I am apparently missing a step so that this appears to sometimes work, and other times not.

Photoshop :: Anchor Point Alignment And Distribute?

May 15, 2013

I would like to align the edges of two anchor points. But when I try, the alignments are disabled. It seems this is only posibble for aligning multiple shapes, but not for individual anchor points. It would be nice if this works the same as in illustrator.

Photoshop :: Delete One Handle From Anchor Point

Jan 21, 2013

I can't seem to find a constant way to delete just one of 2 handles from an anchor point. I can drag the handle into the anchor point, but sometimes it still remains, and can be pulled out. Other times, it seems to disappear, as desired.
 
I would like to convert to one handle only.

Photoshop :: Move Anchor Point For Adjustment Brush In ACR CS5

Mar 20, 2012

It's never been a problem before, but the anchor point for the Adjustment Brush in ACR is sitting exactly where I need to see what is happening.  I can delete and start again, but if there is way to move or hide the anchor point while still being able to adjust the setting, it would be handy to know for next time it happens.

Photoshop :: Moving Anchor Point Using Space-bar While Drawing With Pen?

Sep 18, 2012

If you're an Illustrator user, you may be familiar with the ability to move the active anchor point of the line, by holding "Spacebar" and dragging during the drawing process. This is a useful timesaver for creating complex paths. While Photoshop CS6 has introduced some useful new path-editing features, this is one that is still missing.

I cant' figure out why Adobe does not make the pen tool identical between the two programs. This is an old feature in Illustrator. Don't the Adobe programmers talk to each other.

GIMP :: Undo Last Anchor Point?

Mar 31, 2011

When I cut out an image I normally use the free select tool to make the outline. If I make a mistake how do I undo the last anchor point? I noticed in previous versions that there was a selection marked "undo anchor point", but in the current version selecting undo completely bypasses the free select actions.

Illustrator :: How To Add Or Delete Anchor Point

Feb 7, 2014

I've noticed that in Illustrator CC (17.1) the pen cursor doesn't automatically let you add or delete an anchor point anymore, when in Pen tool mode (P). It used to be an automatic feature in CS5, where a + or - sign would show up whenever I hovered over a selected path with the tool.

Illustrator :: Removing Last Anchor Point's Handle?

Jan 30, 2014

Is there a way to somehow define a shortkey to the process of removing our last anchor point's unused handle?
 
I am talking about this:

To be able to make a sharp corner I have to manually click on the anchor point so the handle which is still unused gets deleted. The anchor points are particulary small and the don't scale when zooming so sometimes it's just hard to click them and therefore I would love if I could automatically remove the handle with a key/key combination.

Illustrator :: How To Align Anchor Point With Object

Feb 15, 2013

I have a shape I made with the pen tool, and now I want to align one anchor point of the shape with the middle of a rectangle. How can I do this? It doesn't seem like I can do what I do for objects, which is select both objects, click the object I want to align to, and hit align. If I'm not describing this properly let me know and I can try to clarify.

Illustrator :: Too Many Anchor Point When Brushes Expand In CS6

Jul 19, 2013

I have recently upgraded to CS6 from CS2. I do a lot of digital inking in Illustrator as part of my job. In CS2 I would create a simple tapered brush using 4 anchor points. When I would draw a brush stroke say with two anchor points, and then expand that brush stroke. Illustrator CS2 would convert the outlined tapered brush stroke back to the the original 4 anchor point path that I had originally created with maybe one extra point if the stroke curved  drastically. Now is CS6 illustrator creates that same expanded brush with 9 to 12 anchor points in the path. This makes the program completly useless for my task. Is there anyway to correct this?

Illustrator :: Convert Anchor Point To Right Angle?

Jan 21, 2014

I would like to select an anchor point and adjust it so that it creates a perfect right angle. How can I do that?
 
Imagine some closed, filled shape, made up of a dozen anchor points. I would like to select one of those anchor points (a corner anchor point, not a smooth anchor point), and adjust it (built-in function? script?) so that it create a perfect right angle (90 deg.). This essentially would mean moving it to just the right spot so that the lines connecting it to its two neighbouring anchor points would form a right angle.
 
do not assume that the resulting right angle would necessarily be orientated along a North-South axis, or any other rational compass direction.

Illustrator Scripting :: How To Add Anchor Point On A Path

Sep 22, 2012

Is there any way to find a specific point on a path, that is not necessarily an anchor point?
 
What I'd like to be able to do is tell Illustrator "Give me the coordinates of the point that's exactly at half of this path's length" or "... exactly 25% ...". And if that's possible, can I somehow add an anchor point to that point, or cut the path at that point?

Illustrator :: Anchor Point Handles Settings?

Mar 1, 2013

Are there any options to specify the "positions" etc. of handles of anchor points in order to be able to shape a little more precise for example for an image that has to be identically left and right shaped?
 
I'm drawing a Bell (church bell) at the moment and drawing one side first and duplicating and reflecting it works fine to get the perfectly symmetrical shape, but when I want to adjust some handles or shaping, I would like to do this identically left and right without constantly having to adjust one side and duplicate it etc.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Changing The Anchor Point

Sep 10, 2013

I have a interesting problem with Dynamic blocks that have been created in AutoCAD 2007.  The issue that I have is with the anchor point that is set by AutoCAD when creating the block, and whether or not I can assign a different anchor point.

The block that has been created is a dynamic block to designate parcels, and contains the APN (Assessor's Parcel Number, which is hidden), Acreage, a circle, and a digit that displays within the circle.  When the block is imported to a drawing, the anchor point itself is NW of the block itself (the distance varies by the scale being used), and I would like to have the anchor point at the south quadrant grip of the circle.

The anchor point poses no problems when being used in AutoCAD, but when the blocks are imported to GIS, the anchor point causes the blocks to snap to the anchor point, rather than where they are placed physically within the AutoCAD drawing.  This is a fairly simple fix in GIS, which simply entails moving the highlighted points in to the proper position, but it is a step that I would like to eliminate.

I have attached a block for reference.

Illustrator :: Anchor Point Snapping To Specific Angles

Aug 12, 2013

In Illustrator CS5 my anchor point handles are snapping to specific angles,which I don't want. I have to turn off Smart Guides to freely adjust the handles.
 
Under preferences, Smart Guides, I turned off the custom construction guides, but even this did not correct the issue. I love using Smart Guides and I thought there were just in face that 'guides' and provided no snapping.
 
I also tried turning off 'snapping to point' to see if that was creating an issue, but no dice.
 
I can provide my system settings in case:
 
Mac OSX 10.8.4
16 GB memory
Illustrator CS5
 
Wanted to ensure I was not missing a feature I couldn't find or research before trying to reset my preferences.

Illustrator :: Moving Anchor Point Using Spacebar While Drawing With Pen

Aug 28, 2012

While using the pen tool, moving the current anchor point by hold down the spacebar, is a great time-saver and I use it frequently. But I find it a little frustrating that, when closing a path, the "spacebar" feature does not work. Instead, the apposing direction point goes whacko. Is there an alternate keyboard shortcut to overcome it? Even though I "know" it won't work, I seem unable to resist holding the spacebar to fine-tune the last anchor point.

Illustrator :: Drag Only One Handle Out Of Anchor Point In Path

Mar 28, 2010

I'm wondering how it's possible to drag only one handle out of an anchor point. Sometimes I have a path and some anchor points have only one handle dragged out. Now I want to adjust the other handle _without_ changing the already positioned handle. Is this even possible?
 
The "convert anchor point tool" does allow me to drag out handles, but only both at a time. This always results in changing the already positioned handle's position.
