How can I create and organize a symbol to be integrated into Illustrator's stock symbols?

Hello,
I am trying to create a series of symbols for maps (north arrows, scale bars, etc.) and then save them in Illustrator's "stock" symbol libraries - such as "maps".  The goal is that whenever I create a new Illustrator file, I can immediately grab these newly created symbols without having to open another file and copy the desired linework from the other file (just trying to be more organized and efficient).
I am at a loss. I understand how to pull them into my drawing and break the link to modify.  I also have gone as far as to make a custom symbol and drag it into the "Symbols" dialog box - but it wont let me drag it into the "Maps" Dialog box.  And even if I dragged a symbol into the dialog box - is it automatically saved?  There are no instructions regarding how to save symbols the user creates.
Please help!
Happy Thanksgiving,

Okay, that helped guys. Thank you.
I was a little confused as to how it works.  Good to go now!

    how can i create and audio cd from a music track I have on my ipod

    This is how:
    Go to:
    'File'
    'Share'
    'Quicktime'
    'Expert Settings'
    'Audio as AIFF' or pick your brand of compression.
    Drag and drop the resulting file into iTunes.
    Enjoy!
    P.S. - You didn't need to delete the video but I think that'll be okay.

    Hello GG RA,
    which fileformat do you want to use (binary or ASCII)?
    There are some LabVIEW shipping examples for File I/O
    You could use the LabVIEW NI Example Finder (Help --> Find Examples..(search item "file")) to get an overview about the different file-formats in LabVIEW.
    Hope this helped out and feel free to reply if you have more questions about File I/O in LabVIEW
    Best regards

  • How can we create and change RSS XML?

    1. What tools can we use to create RSS XML pages?
    2. The pages should use data of the other XML pages generated by the XML-forms (e.g. News XML pages)?
    3. How can we setup and change RSS XML templates (e.g. add new tags, change properties and values)?

    Hi
    Is  there any way to create Rss for personal blogs and add it into our portal. That means we can add it newly by clicking button.
    Thank You

  • How can I create and export a file in 1024x768? Is the size supported in FCPX?

    I'm trying to create a video to export and upload on YouTube, and we want to do it at 1024x768. FCPX does not support this file size. Ideally how can I
    1) Create a canvas size in 1024x768 (or the same aspect ratio)
    2) Export my video at 1024x768 (here it has to be the exact dimensions).
    I feel so dippy, this seems like it should be obvious but I can't figure it out! Closest I've gotten is 2048x1556. Thanks for any help!

    The technique explained in the Creative Cow tutorial works perfectly. I use it all the time for the odd aspect ratios we work in for video walls. It does feel odd working in FCPX without creating a Project (Compound Clips are stored in Events) but hapily you have all the editing capabilities in a Compound Clip timeline as you do in a Project timeline.
    It would be nice if FCPX allowed us to enter custom sizes for Projects like one can in FCP7. But FCPX with this technique actually handles odd aspect ratios better than 7 did. I used to run color shifts and transition problems doing this in 7.
    I once called Apple tech support about the problems in 7 and they told me that although you can enter custom resoulutions in FCP7, Apple doesn't support anything other than standard resolutions. I guess they clarified that position with FCPX.
    Come on Apple (and YouTube and Vimeo.) Not everyone lives in a 16x9 world. My daughter, as do most teens, shoots all video at 9x16. Surely that resolution will soon have to be supported.

  • How can I create and design a page UI from blank page in jdev10g?

    Hi.
    How can I implement a page from scratch page?
    I can create a master-detail page as the OBE site.
    But I'm not sure how to create page using component pallets, instead drag data-control model to page.
    It means I should design UI with component pallets,
    How can I do?
    Thanks.

    Thanks.
    It is helpful to me.
    What I want to do is use component pallets and add action to the component for creating a page instead using executeWithParam operation and drag view object from datacontrol to create page.
    How can I do?
    Thanks

  • How can i create and paste my own tags into source page of a html editor

    I download ekit and try to customize.
    I wrote a similar code:
    TagEditor extends HTML
    , and inner class:
    ExtendedTag extends Tag
    by following similar structure with javax.swing.text.html
    I added my own tags into tagList in HTMLUtilities class which is in com.hexidec.ekit.component. Because it is initialized three times when i run the program.
    I add a button to multitoolbar, and wrote a insertMyTag method in class EkitCore:
    private void insertMyTag() throws IOException, BadLocationException, RuntimeException {
    int caretPos = jtpMain.getCaretPosition();
    // htmlKit.insertHTML(htmlDoc, caretPos, "<VAZIFE>", 0, 0, TagEditor.ExtendedTag.VAZIFE);
    jtpMain.setText("<HTML><BODY><VAZIFE></BODY></HTML>");
    jtpSource.setText(jtpMain.getText());
    jtpMain.setText does display in the source editor but the default HTMLEditorKit creates the unkown tags and inserts them into the html view output with box-like borders. I want to keep the tags in the source but remove them from the output view so the user only sees the normal HTML output and my app sees the XML tags.
    What do I need to do in insertMyTag to turn off the strange display of
    unknown tags? Is there an easier way to do this?
    Thanks

    Or, take a ScreenHunter image of the list and email that to yourself.

  • How can I create and enforce parental limits on iMessages?

    Carriers such as ATT provide parental controls on outgoing calls, texts, and internet use.
    These can be set for specific times of day, and are working well for me.
    I would like to prevent my step-daughter from texting during school hours. I can set
    limits on SMS and MMS through the carrier. However, the recent advent of iMessage
    allows her to get around the restriction with anyone that has iOS5.0.
    I can disable the iMessage feature on her iphone using "settings" but there appears to be no way under
    the iPhone's parental controls to prevent her from changing "settings". Besides which, disabling the feature entirely seems
    needlessly crude.
    My options at this point seem to be taking the phone away, or replacing it with a dumb phone.
    Rather than offering addional impetus to buy Apple, the iMessage feature is driving me away,
    Thanks in advance

    I was searching for an answer to this problem as well. I use ATT SmartLimits to restrict my kids' text messages by time of day, etc. Also, I want to know WHO they are texting, so I usually review the phone numbers of all text messages on our bill. Since iMessage bypasses the ATT text message system, SmartLimits do not apply, and I don't see the detail of the texts on our bill. So the only real answer here is to disable iMessage completely. I have been very frustrated trying to find a solution to this problem over the past few days and was about to resort to downgrading to an older iOS version or even switching to different phones, when I stumbled just across a perfect solution.
    Though you can't restrict iMessage, you CAN restrict FaceTime. And it appears that FaceTime and iMessage you the same communication mechansim, because when you restrict FaceTime, iMessages suddenly disappear! Voila - problem solved. Just enable restrictions on your childrens' phone, then disable FaceTime. All future messages will be sent and received as text messages, which can be controlled with SmartLimits and monitored on their bill.
    Of course the downside is iMessages are free and text messages are not, but I'll gladly pay $30/month for the unlimited family text plan to get the addded controls.
    Hope this helps . . .

  • How can I create an iPhoto Library from photos on an external drive?

    Here's my issue:
    I have a MacBook Pro running OS X Mavericks, and I am just about out of hard drive space.
    I also have about 20 GB worth of photos on an external drive. The photos are not organized at all, just got dumped into a folder there during a hasty backup a couple years ago.
    I'd like to use iPhoto to get these photos organized, but don't have the space to import them into the library on my laptop.
    How can I create and manage an iPhoto library with these photos while keeping them on the external drive? They are on a terabyte drive, so I have a feeling I'd like to make that my main library moving forward.

    Check that the drive's formatted as Mac OS Extended, drag the iPhoto library to it, launch iPhoto with the Option key held down, and choose that library.

  • How can I view my photos in "Events" like in iPhoto? How can I create events?  I have 55,000 photos and 1700 events so the only way I can possibly manage my photos is using events that are one slide in size.

    I have 55,000 images organized into about 1700 events. The only reasonable way to view my library is using events in iPhoto where each event has one image That still leaves 1700 images to sort through but that is a lot easier than 55,000 images.  In the side bar is a folder with "iPhoto Events" but those views still show all of the slides.  How can I create events and view my photos as events as in iPhoto?  Events are critical for large libraries and has been my primary way to sort images.
    Thanks!

    I had a problem a couple of months ago when iPhotos suddenly rearranged the order of my Events (Why won't iPhoto let me arrange my photos?) .  I was told "Use albums not events - events are not a good way to organize - albums and folder are designed for organisation and are very flexible".
    Haha!  I should have paid attention and read between the lines!  My iPhotos were highly organised groupings - not according to date but the way I wanted them - and it was so easy to do!  I see now that if I had them all in albums, as per the Apple Apologist suggestion, I wouldn't have this unholy mess I have been left with just to make iPhone & iCloud users happy.  I am now going through Photos and making Albums (of what used to be in my Events)  ... maybe I'll get this finished before they do another non user friendly update!

  • How can I create additional "Sent Mail" folders so that I can organize my sent mail along the same lines as the inbox? I use Mail v 4.5

    How can I create additional or sub "Sent Mail" folders so that I can organize my sent mail along the same lines as the inbox? I use Mail v 4.5.

    Thank you for your reply Don, but I had already gone through that procedure and it will only create new mailboxes for received mail. I want to create new mailboxes for sent mail, i.e. the first column being "to" not "from". Under the Mailbox menus there is an option "Use This Mailbox For" but all the options under that (including Sent) are greyed out. Unfortunately the View/Columns option to change from "From" to "To" changes all mailboxes not just the active one.
