Can Illustrator snap clipping groups to grid using the clipping path?

I want to be able to snap a clipping group to grid so that the clipping path snaps to the grid, not the masked paths. Is this possible?

Thanks for the replies, however neither is a solution to the problem. I want to make a seamless tessellation pattern using a clipping group as the unit of repetition. No matter what I try, Illustrator does not allow me to "over-ride" the anchor points of the clipping contents in order to snap the clipping path to grid.  Of course it can be done manually, but if the clipping mask is an equilateral triangle, for example, and the pattern reflects on all sides of the triangle as it repeats, a manual construction is a hassle. And besides, the whole idea is to use snap-to-grid to guarantee a seamless tessellation. 
The solution to the problem would be if Illustrator could treat a clipping path as a crop rather than a mask when snapping to grid.

    thanks!

    Hi,
    You can use Explain Plan for checking that your query is using proper index or not. First you need to check that Plan_table is installed in your database or not. If it is not there THEN THE SCRIPT WILL BE LIKE THIS:
    CREATE TABLE PLAN_TABLE (
    STATEMENT_ID VARCHAR2 (30),
    TIMESTAMP DATE,
    REMARKS VARCHAR2 (80),
    OPERATION VARCHAR2 (30),
    OPTIONS VARCHAR2 (30),
    OBJECT_NODE VARCHAR2 (128),
    OBJECT_OWNER VARCHAR2 (30),
    OBJECT_NAME VARCHAR2 (30),
    OBJECT_INSTANCE NUMBER,
    OBJECT_TYPE VARCHAR2 (30),
    OPTIMIZER VARCHAR2 (255),
    SEARCH_COLUMNS NUMBER,
    ID NUMBER,
    PARENT_ID NUMBER,
    POSITION NUMBER,
    COST NUMBER,
    CARDINALITY NUMBER,
    BYTES NUMBER,
    OTHER_TAG VARCHAR2 (255),
    PARTITION_START VARCHAR2 (255),
    PARTITION_STOP VARCHAR2 (255),
    PARTITION_ID NUMBER,
    OTHER LONG,
    DISTRIBUTION VARCHAR2 (30))
    TABLESPACE SYSTEM NOLOGGING
    PCTFREE 10
    PCTUSED 40
    INITRANS 1
    MAXTRANS 255
    STORAGE (
    INITIAL 10240
    NEXT 10240
    PCTINCREASE 50
    MINEXTENTS 1
    MAXEXTENTS 121
    FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 )
    NOCACHE;
    After that write the following command in the SQL prompt.
    Explain plan for (Select statement);
    Select level, SubStr( lpad(' ',2*(Level-1)) || operation || ' ' ||
    object_name || ' ' || options || ' ' ||
    decode(id, null , ' ', decode(position, null,' ', 'Cost = ' || position) ),1,100)
    || ' ' || nvl(other_tag, ' ') Operation
    from PLAN_TABLE
    start with id = 0
    connect by
    prior id = parent_id;
    This will show how the query is getting executed . What are all the indexes it is using etc.
    Cheers.

    I am new with iMac and I am trying to copy some file from my external HDD that a used with my PC but it does not let me also I can't delete anything from this HDD using the finder. Can somebody help me , please?

    No, unfortunately, when you format a drive, it will erase all the contents. So you will need to find a temporary "storage" place to put the stuff using a PC so you have access to it. Then reformat using Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities). If only using with mac, format Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and use GUID Partition scheme under Partitions/Options. After formatting, you can drag the files back.

  • Can two people with their own iPhones use the same computer and iTunes?

    Can two people with their own iPhones use the same computer and iTunes?

    Yes. My wife and I each have our own Apple ID and used the same computer to sync our phones with iTunes. The best way to do this is set up separate user accounts on the computer. If you are logged in to your account on the computer and your wife wants to sync here phone, you would log out and she would log in. These keeps all your stuff separate and avoids a ton of confusion.

  • HT2542 Can we have two separate itunes accounts using the same mac?

    I am wanting to download music to my Thunderbolt smart phone (i know, no iphone yet, next upgrade) and I want to use itunes to do it. My partner has an itunes account and I thought I opened my own itunes account, but apparently I didn't. I don't like the same music and only want to download music I like to my phone. Can we just have one account and be able to download checked music from the itunes to multiple devices?

    I'm confused
    Can we have two separate itunes accounts using the same mac?
    Can we just have one account and be able to download checked music from the itunes to multiple devices?
    Do you want one or two?
    By the way, and iTunes account is really the thing you use online to purchase music, not what you have on a computer.  You have user accounts on a computer, and you have iTunes libraries or collections of media.  You can have multiple user accounts on a computer.  You can have a single or multiple user accounts use a single or multiple libraries.  We need to know exactly what it is you have/want.

  • I lost my Iphone 3GS. My brother has given me his Iphone 4 now. We both use the same notebook to update and sync our phones. I would like to know how can i reconnect back to my account using the Iphone which was previous used by my brother.

    If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted.  The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync.  You need to use different IDs.  You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps.  But use different icloud IDs.

    My iphone 5 went into search mode and I can't place or receive calls or use the internet but my text messages work. Sprint had me do a master reset and my phone doesn't work at all now I can't get it past the activation. Will I have to pay for repairs in store because I didnt get the Apple care plan when I purchased it. Sprint said it may be a phone problem not sure if I should take it to Sprint or Apple...I just need my phone

    I'm sorry to learn that you are not able to make/receive calls chelseabee! (ticket number removed) results indicate that there is no issues with the network or account provisioning. Since you have already done a hard reset http://vz.to/1gBkSJc (as per your post), I recommend exploring replacement options. If your phone is within the one year manufacturers' warranty we can provide a Certified Like New replacement http://vz.to/uyYF0o as long as no physical/liquid damage exist. If your phone has sustained physical/water damage and you have insurance, you can submit a claim to the insurance company online at this link http://bit.ly/07CrqPK

  • How Can You Track Your Ipod If Lost Using The Serial Number

    How Can You Track Your Ipod If Lost Using The Serial Number?

    The find my iphone app has nothong to do with it.
    That app simply allow you to find other devices using your ipod.  It has nothing to do with fining the device on which it is installed.
    If you set up the find my ipod feature that is built into your ipod and the ipod is on and it is connected to wi-fi and it has not been restored, then you may be able to get an approximate street address using icloud.
    Othrewise, it cannot be tracked.

  • HT4245 i use a macbook pro which came with facetime i have an iphone 4S as well. whenever i use the wireless on my iphone i can facetime with ease however when i use the same wireless for my mac to facetime the call always gets disconnected.

    To use factime on your Mac, I believe you will need to use your email address to do so instead of your wireless number.  Since you can't make calls on the Mac.

    Adobe PDF Pack does not allow you to edit a PDF file. For that, you would need Acrobat. You're welcome to try Acrobat for free for 30 days: see http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

    As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
    What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF  to Word export.
    There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.

  • Can someone tell me please how to use the features...

    Hi all,
    Can someone tell me please how to use the features on the HS-47 headset?
    That is, what functions does the button control and how many presses of the button for each function, etc?
    The headset was as supplied with my 6200.
    I've tried looking for a user guide but I don't think there is one.
    Many thanks,
    Steve.

    I think it's pretty basic.
    If you are listening to music on your phone, it should automatically mute it when a call comes in. A basic press of the call answer / end button should then do just that.
    Have a go! You could try experimenting with a quick double press, that may recall the last number you dialled, but otherwise that's probably it.
