Problem connecting two seperate straight line paths. Please help!

Hi there, I'm new to illustrator and have been having a problem connecting two straight line paths. They never seem to line up correctly. Attached is a photo of the problem. I assume this is an easy fix but I can't figure it out myself.

Brigid,
There seems to be two aspects:
One is to get the end points to coincide. You may tick View>Snap Guides, then click one path by the end Anchor Point and drag it to snap (Smart Guides say anchor when you are there).
The other is to get rid of the gap in the stroke(s), You may join the paths into one, dragging across the coinciding Anchor Points with the Direct Selection Tool and Ctrl/Cmd+J, or you may keep the separate paths and change the Cap to Round in the Stroke palette/panel which will give you a rounded outer appearance); I presume the former is what you wish, in which case you may choose between Round and Miter Join.

  • Problems connecting using MM.MySQL JDBC driver - Please Help

    I have been trying to get the driver to work for the past two days and have hit a brick wall. If someone could offer any ideas on what other steps to try I would so much appreciate it. Here's the situation:
    I'm working on Mac OS X.1, jdk 1.3, mysql (database) and using the mm.mysql driver version 2.0.6.1. I'm using a test script which loads the driver, tries to connect to the 'test' database (which doesn't require a username/password) and then prints out the systems date when successful.
    //load the driver
    Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
    //Try connecting to db
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbc:mysql:///test", "", "");
    Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
    ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT now();");
    while (rset.next())
    System.out.println(rset.getString(1));
    // Close result set, statement and DB connection
    rset.close();
    stmt.close();
    conn.close();
    The problem is that everytime I run the script I get an error telling me that the driver could not be found:
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver
    ��������at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200)
    ��������at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)

    ��������at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:297)
    ��������at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.j
    The mysql database is running in the background, the driver's path location has been added to my classpath and I've also tried modifying the driver name as well as using older versions of the driver itself, but still no luck. This needs to be up and running so I can finalize a project I've been working on. If anyone has any ideas on what I could possibly try next, I welcome the suggestions.
    Thanks in advance.

    I didn't realize you had to extract the information either.
    Ok.. so I downloaded the latest jar file from sourceforge, extracted the data and IT WORKED!! Thank you so much. You saved my head from exploding.
    Many thanks.

  • Simplifying Straight Line Paths

    Hey all,
    new to the forum and really struggling with something at the moment, Using Illustrator CS4
    I've imported a map from a DWG prepared in Archicad (vector based architecture software)
    This map shows roads and buildings (they are paths in illustrator) and as you would imagine the roads are curved but rather than being drawn with curves they are composed of many many straight line paths and as I'm meaning to have a model laser cut from the Illustrator file I need to join these paths into longer paths so the laser cutting doesn't take forever.
    As far as I can see it's fairly simple to simplify the number of anchor points on a curved path using the Object>Path>Simplify tool but simplifying multiple straight line paths that only have the slightest deviation in angle seems harder, or at least I can't work it out.
    I have attached an image, The areas highlighted in green are examples of areas where there are too many paths and just one or two paths would be fine. It would be fine to either convert the paths to curved paths or just simply reduce the number of straight line paths that compose the curves.
    Hope someone can help, Thx for your time

    Apart from the current problem, you should take a look at the free plugin "Kartografie-Funktionen" if you do this kind of stuff regularly. http://www.ika.ethz.ch/plugins/index.html
    It has a tool for simplifying paths, which works slightly different than Illustrator's

    First, restart the Time Capsule by disconnecting the power adapter and reconnecting it. If other devices on the network can see it, you can skip this step.
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    Click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the window and authenticate to unlock the settings, if necessary. Click the Advanced button, then select the TCP/IP tab in the sheet that drops down. Click Renew DHCP lease.
    Try again to back up.
    If you still can't, open the Time Machine preference pane and delete the TC from the list of backup destinations. You may have to unlock the settings by clicking the lock icon in order to do this. Then add it back.

    You might want to download something called an undelete utility. These can find files and recover them even after they appear to have been lost. There are some undelete utility programs that are free. Look at tucows.com
    Also, it appears that you have POSSIBLY overwritten the actual files, which you moved manually, with I don't know what, which you moved in PSE's folder location view.
    Next, in the future ... NEVER (that's: don't even think about it) move your photos in Windows. NEVER. NEVER. Not ever. Not once. This always (that's ALWAYS, as in 100% of the time) causes problems and usually makes things difficult to fix.
    Lastly ... make regular backups! I must say this in the forums about seventy bazillion times a month. Make regular backups! Regular depends on how often you take photographs and edit them. Since my photographic activity usually happens on the weekends, I make backups every Sunday night. You may need a different schedule, depending on your activity level. MAKE REGULAR BACKUPS!

  • Internet works, but I have an exclamation mark instead of AirPort connection and cannot connect to my WiFi.. PLEASE HELP!

    Internet works, but I have an exclamation mark instead of AirPort connection and cannot connect to my WiFi.. PLEASE HELP!

    When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
    Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, restart the computer and try again. If there's no change, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click  Applyand test.
    If there's still no connection, and if you have control of the router, compare its settings to Apple's recommendations. Some third-party routers may be incompatible in 802.11b/g/n radio mode. Try setting the mode to 802.11n only.
