Having Illustrator pathfinder subtract tool problems.
I used a pen tool to create a logo and then I brought it over to another file of a rounded star. I want to subtract my logo nicely onto the shape but whenever I do, it subtracts weirdly and all wonky not as I designed it. Any help?
I am using Adobe Illustrator CC SRiegel

Issue with Illustrator Pathfinder Divide tool
Having a strange issue I've never encountered before with the divide tool in Illustrator. I use this all the time and it's never caused me any issues until I upgraded to CS6.
I've uploaded a video of the problem I'm encountering here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OO07SXVGeOw&feature=youtu.be
What I would like to do, and have done before, is to simply divid a shape using the path of a line. It should divide the shape right along the line path resulting in two shapes that are grouped together without the anchorpoints moving and changing the shape size. What's happening now when I do it is that the main shape changes form when divided and the achorpoints are moving around, resulting in two shapes that really don't 'fit' back together without tweaking the achorpoints. I mine as well create two seperate shapes and eyeball where the achorpoints should match.
In the video I just showed you what one line is doing. When I do them all it's an absolute mess. I've done this before many times and it's always worked out perfectly—not sure what is going on. I initially though I could of had 'snap to point' or 'snap to grid on' which would cause the anchor points to shift after being divided. All those options are turned off and it's still doing it.
Has anyone encountering this issue or know why it may be happening? I've tried restarting my computer to see if it was just being glitchy, but the same issue keep happening.
Thank you!I know this string is out of date, but I started having the same issue after upgrading to CS6. I unchecked the "Align to Pixel Grid" box in the Pathfinder palette, and changed the document color mode from RGB to CMYK... I even created a new document and was still having issues. After repeating this process a couple of times, thinking I was doing everything right, HERE'S where I found the issue..
When creating a new document, make sure you click on "Advanced" options in the "New Document" box...
Make sure your Color Mode is CMYK (mine was RGB... and that's why that little yellow warning is there)
Select what every PPI you need
and UNCHECK the "Align New Objects to Pixel Grid" (this is the IMPORTANT part... you can't get to it AFTER you click "OK")
Now you're ready and won't have those irritating issues with Pathfinder! Yeeesh! -
Illustrator CC Rotate Tool Problem
So I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing this problem, but it seems I'm having issues with the accuracy of the rotate tool in Illustrator CC. When I rotate an object 90 degrees (either by entering in the rotate angle value or using the free rotate tool), the anchors no longer line up exactly. Here's a sample image showing what I'm referring to:
Note the red arrow pointing to the line not being straight. After I release the rotation (holding shift), it still isn't straight. Anyway, this is really starting to bug me. My software is up-to-date and I haven't seen Adobe release anything on this. Has anyone else noticed/encountered this? If so, does anyone know of a fix for it?dj,
It does look rather strange: everything seems to be right, except for the two short not quite horizontal segments.
As far as I can see it rules out both an Align to Pixel Grid and a Constrain Angle issue.
With no clue, I have no clue whether the following may help.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

HELP! Illustrator CS2 pen tool problems
Hi, All
new to the forum...great resource...
I'm having a problem with my CS 2. Specifically my tools are acting weird..
The pen tool will not allow me to place points where I want them, or adjust the handles with any finesse. When I go to place a point in a certain spot, and click the mouse, a point appears nearby but not where I want it to. Then, when I try to move it, or adjust its handles, it only will go where it wants to...not where I'm telling it to go.
I can select objects, but cannot place them where I want them!!!! ( I can get close, but no cigar!)
This is most frustrating!....
I have re-installed the program.
I have also restarted the computer.
I have not trashed my preferences folder....not sure where that is or if that might be the problem.
Can any of you guys (and gals) help?!?
many thanks in advance
JPDUH!
Thanks very much JET.....that was exactly it.....though how it got turned on, I dont know....(couldnt have been anything I did!!!) lol

Hi, I just started using PS on Mac, and having a polygonal lasso tool problem, when I make any selected area with the poly lasso and complete the shape, say for instance a series of sun rays, it ends up with a bunch of boxes in the shape, that I didn't put there, I'll attach a screen shot, any idea what is going on?
Hi, yeah, i tried that, have there been any bugs that relate to the polygonal lasso tool?
heres a post with the same problem, but no fix- this seems really silly

Laptop mode tools problem with kernel 3.0
today I just updated the system and my laptop runs dramatically hotter after that. I read the archwiki, it does talk about the laptop mode tools problem with kernel 3.0 but when I opened the file /usr/sbin/laptop_mode, the lines which the wiki mentions are not there. Does anyone here have the same problem and can you offer the solution?
Here is my /usr/sbin/laptop_mode

# This is a 2 phase locking approach. LMT_REQ_LOCK is the outer lock and LMT_INVOC_LOCK is the inner lock
# We take this approach to ensure the scenario that, "At any point when an event occurs (AC/BATT), the
# kernel can generate multiple events spanning over a couple of events. The first event is honored and
# lmt executes. If the last event triggered at the 9th second, there is a fair chance that a good amount
# of state change would have occured in the OS, to honor that state, we keep an outer lock (LMT_REQ_LOCK)
# handy, so that those changes can also be applied and not forgotten.
# Workflow:
# Event-1 is generated and lmt executes (lmt runtime could span 5-10 seconds)
# At seventh second, 4 events generate. But Event-1 is still running.
# We don't want to discard all the remaining 4 events, but at least honor 1 so that we can act to the changes
# that occured in the last 7 seconds.
# So, Event-2 acquire LMT_REQ_LOCK and waits to acquire LMT_INVOC_LOCK (which is acquire by Event-1)

esacI had the problem but edited the line in /usr/sbin/laptop_mode and it worked. But thoes lines are not there anymore. I guess they changed it at the recent update of laptop-mode-tools.
Regarding your heat problem; is there any other thing you use to cut down power usage (from AUR maybe)? I use acpi_call from AUR had to edit lines there aswell, but it should be updated by now. -
Hi,
I've got a problem with Illustrator's Eyedropper Tool that neither my teacher nor Google was able to solve. When I use it to copy a color over to a different part of the image, the copied color is slightly off (I verified this using the color sampler in photoshop). I already made sure that the raster sample size is set to "point sample" so I know it's not because it's sampling from too wide of an area. This only happens on my school's Mac, it works fine on my own Mac. However, when I start a document at school and open it on my own Mac, it has the same problem. When I open a new document on my own Mac there is no problem. Is it something with the 'proof setup'? I need it to make an illustration of a picture using mesh tool. This problem has me stumped - any ideas, please?
I included an example. I used the point sample where my mouse pointer is to fill the circle.thanks for the response
at school the color settings are Prepress 2
my settings are: North American General Purpose 2
I already tried changing that but still can't get the colors right.
I had the same problem with an illustration of a bell pepper we had to make using the mesh tool
I couldn't get the right shade of orange from the original bell pepper image when I tried to reproduce it with the mesh tool
The resulting shade of orange I get from using the eyedropper tool varies depending on which part of the bell pepper I use as its source, although it's the same shade of orange everywhere
Also, it's always darker than it should be, never lighter
here the image is in cmyk and the illustrator file is too, so I don't think that is the problem -
I am having an ongoing problem with the Brush Tool in my PSE9.
I have the question written out in Word Pad but I can't seem to copy & paste it into this box. The 1st thing I need to know is how to copy & paste my simple text question here.
BobBarbara B.:
It has been several days since I heard anything from you on my ongoing Brush Tool problem. From your digging what have you found? In the past 10 days I have continued spotting B&W negative scans & trying to collect additional information on the propensity of the brush tool to create a line running across the image. Basically what I have found reinforces the 7 points/factors I outlined in posting #14 on 7/7/12. I'll go over & expand on those again here.
1) When the line runs it always goes from where I am currently spotting to some point I previously clicked & put a spot. This is not necessarily the most recent spot. It can travel to a spot I did 30 sec. ago (& have done several others in the interim). It does need to be on the visable portion of the screen.
2) As stated. The width of the line is the same as the width of the specific selected brush size. Usually between nos. 4 & 9. The tone of the line is the same as the tone selection (so far I have only experienced this with B&W).
3) The more I spot the slower the computer's reaction time becomes. After spotting for an hour, or two, I will see several seconds between the time I click on a spot & the time the spot actually appears on the negative. I have tried turning off PSE & rebooting it. This seems to speed things back up for a while.
4) When the situation in #3 occurs I obviously can't click rapidly.
5) I still don't understand why this happens at all. I move the curser outside of the image frame towards the Vert. & Horz. slider as I get ready to move to a new part of the image. I place the curser on the slider control a left click (as though to move the slider). Instead of moving the slider it shoots one of these lines out onto the image from under the slider control & out onto the image field to some point where there was a previous spotting click. These lines will often run half way across the image field. I have saved some of these examples & could attach them to an email for you to see.
6) Once one of these lines start appearing, or running, they seem to increase with frequency. Almost as though the software is developing a memory. As I say in #3, if I re boot PSE the memory either is erased, or at least reduced.
7) The only time the original statement is not totally true is when a line runs from under the slider (which is outside the viewing area) out into the visable image field.
Here are some additional factors I have noticed:
8) I normally begin spotting by setting the view drop down to "actual pixels". I notice that If I further magnify the image by then clicking once on the "zoom in" option I have a reduced frequency if these wild lines appearing. This may be due to the fact that when the image is larger I am working (stippling) at a slower rate.
9) If I have a hair or scratch on the neg. (normally using a drawn line to obliterate) & I use a stippling/clicking pattern rather than a drawn line the frequency or chance of a free running line is reduced - not eliminated, but reduced -
Friends,
I'm having some audio-midi setup problems on my G4/1.25/10.5.1 machine. I'm thinking that a routine OS upgrade might help. However, this machine is not connected to the internet. Are there any alternate methods for upgrading system software? Thanks in advance!OK, what you should do is download the updates on another machine and burn them to a disc. Start at this link http://support.apple.com/downloads/#leopard for downloads and find, among other things, the 10.5.8 combo updater that works on PPC machines, plus security, QuickTime and other updates. Going from 10.5.1 to 10.5.8, there will probably be a bunch of things that you should install. Being off the internet with the machine, you can't have Software Update sort it out, so something might get missed, unfortunately.
My suggestion is this: if it looks like you might need a download, get it onto that disc. -

Adobe Illustrator ha detectado un problema en el registro
Hola!
Tengo un problema cuando abro Illustrator me aparece el siguiente mensaje:
"Adobe Illustrator ha detectado un problema en el registro de Windows que es necesario corregir para que Illustrator pueda funcionar correctamente.
¿Desea que Illustrator corrija el problema? Si No"
Ya le di al si varias veces pero sigue apareciendo, esto me ocurrio despues de desintalar Adobe Photoshop Elements 9, no se si tenga alguna relacion.
Me pueden dar solucion a este problema?Quizás lo mejor es que desde el Panel de Control lo desinstales también, reinicies el ordenador y vuelvas a instalarlo. Suerte
