Where Is The Scissor tool In Illustrator CS4

I've selected a line and want to cut a piece out of the middle.
I've tried the knife tool but I don't understand what it is doing.
From what I read in the help I should use the Scissor tool.
I can't find it.

It's located with the eraser tool.

  • Where is the gradient tool?

    Hi,
    Where is the gradient tool in Flash CS4? Please reply.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    There is no gradient tool in Flash but there exist a Gradient Transform Tool (which is inside the Free Transform Tool, pls click and hold on this tool to view the Gradient Transform Tool) that helps you to modify/transform the gradient applied.
    However you can apply a predefined/custom gradient from COLOR panel and saved gradients from SWATCHES panel. To Define a gradient from COLOR panel, you can choose Linear or Radial from Type drop down and you can adjust the gradient on the bottom of the panel using gradient sliders and color stops.
    Thanks!

  • CS4 - Where is the 3D tool please?

    Where is the 3D tool to wrap text or a logo (rasterized text) around a bottle please? I can't find it under view or windows. Thank you.

    Help Please! I am really up a creek. An employee from Adobe replied to me and sugg. I download the CS5 trial for 30 days (thru the Illustrator forum) and try that since it is a one time thing needed this a.m. for one project that needs to get out.
    So I spent 3 hours doing that but when it finally got done, it said, 0 days left = expired. I've never even tried the trial version. I just don't know what to do.
    Is there some way I can attach an image to show people what I am trying to do. I tried to use Illustrator and the Object>Envelope>Make with Top Object just made each part (even though all layers had been merged before bringing in... and I can't use the text option since the text was created by someone else on a PC and I don't have the text to try and recreate the whole logo)... all that did was make each part around a very tight circle and so I had a mess of circular objects radiating out from the center.
    I keep trying warp but that is failing. This is a jar that is not a straight on view and I can't get to the arch part since it is greyed out and is not text. This is a jar that has a slight downward angle and so th straight logo needs to have a slight curve going downward and a slight allowance for the ends going around the jar. Is  there anyone who can help me please? Even to access a trial 30 day trial to CS5 since this one is not working?? Is there any way to attach an image so I can show what I am trying to do? Thank you in advance for any help

  • Help! - tool in Illustrator CS4 missing

    Hi! This tool in Illustrator CS4 is missing!  How do I solve this problem?? I have tried several things , but nothing helped!

    Sorry, I can't find Adobe Illustrator CS4 Settings?
    please look here: http://screencast.com/t/Le732Z2DsbtE
    I have look through every folders under Adobe Illustrator .
    I have a full Create Cloud subscription on my Mac laptop, - but when I am working in my company, in daytime, I use an old stationary Mac which cannot use Create Cloud subscription because this Mac is 6 years old (but works perfectly).  This Mac is connected to our CTP.
    I take the files down to my company, where I'll take the files in from a USB and into Illustrator 4 - and from there I can then print directly to our CTP. When I am in the company I work daily with Illustrator 4, and on evenings and free time I worked with Adobe Illustrator CC 2014. So I do not really know what to do, I have to get Illustrator tool to work, so I can work from there to our CTP

  • Using the fill option with the marquee tool in PS CS4

    Using the marquee tool in PS CS4 for Windows XP, i can't seem to figure out what all the icons mean--and I'm thinking that SOMEWHERE there must be some files where all these many tool panels and options panels are schematically described for the public? I'm trying to figure out how to put in a fill when I make a circle on a layer. The way of doing it in CS3 seems to have changed, but I can't figure out how as when I hover over the icons, PS doesn't give me any help in identifying them, even though I have "show tool tips" selected in the preferences. Thanks so much for your help.

    A way to do this with great flexibility is to make your Selection and then use Shift Delete and choose what you wish to fill with from the choices in the subsequent dialog.
    [I imagine that it works the same way in Windows?]

  • When I use the scissors tool to create a segment of a track, select the segment and bounce it, about 15-20 seconds of silence is added to the beginning of the resulting segment. What causes this?

    When I use the scissors tool to create a segment of a track, select the segment and bounce it, about 15-20 seconds of silence is added to the beginning of the bounce. What causes this?

    Thanks for the replies. I reviewed them shortly after they were submitted but I'm also working on other projects at the same time (hence the delayed reply).
    Building a time table and doing a cross join to my original resultset gave me the desired resultset of the months assigned between dates. What I can't figure out now is how to filter months I don't want. 
    Doing a cross  join between my original resultset that had two dates:
    08/27/2010
    10/24/2011
    and a calendar table that has 24 rows (each month for a two year period)
    my new resultset looks like this:
    I need to filter the rows in yellow as the months assigned for stage 3 that started on 8/27/2010 should stop when the patient was assigned to stage 4 on 10/24/2011.
    You'll notice that Jan - Sept 2011 isn't listed for Stage 4 assigned on 10/24/2011 as I included a filter in the WHERE clause that states
    the Months Assigned value must be greater than or equal to the date assigned value.
    Any advice would be appreciated.

  • Has Adobe improved the Graphs tool in Illustrator CS6?

    Does anyone know whether there have been any improvements to the graphing tool in Illustrator CS6?
    I had thought that perhaps Adobe would be adding a graphs function to Indesign, but there has been no word of it with the CS6 release. And nobody has mentioned graphs in their "new features" reviews of either InDesign nor Illustrator.
    The graphing function in Illustrator really sucks - it's been the same since Illustrator 88. Have they totally abandoned those of us who have to create graphs again? Or have they improved it but it's just not cool enough for anyone to mention?

    I do a lot of reports - sometimes a 100 page report will have 40 or 50 graphs in it. I have to create over a thousand graphs every year. I have tried all the other products I can find and none of them create files that are really usable in a workflow where everything else is done in Adobe Creative Suite. I need to option click on a linked image of a graph in Indesign, open up an Illustrator file, and update the graph with new data from an Excel file. And I need the graph to look good.
    Currently, the Illustrator graphing tool does not support live updating of the data very well at all and has severe limitations. Your data cannot have commas or percent signs or dollar signs. You cannot have numbers as categories (years, for example, as a category label all have to be typed in quotes). The graph labels cannot even have commas in them (you have to enter them manually after you plot it.) The entry dialog for the data is really primitive and hard to work with. And every time you update the graph data and replot the bars or lines, the tick marks are scattered all over the page and you lose your commas in the axis labels. Adobe really ought to be ashamed and embarrassed by how poorly this tool works, and I cannot understand how they can create tools like a perspective grid (which is cool, but I haven't needed it yet) and totally ignore such a basic productivity tool as the graphing feature.
    I'm all for the cool stuff too . . . but you don't need live paint or live trace to do graphs if you can actually just import the numbers and do it right. But my graphs need to be accurate and based on plotted numbers, not hand-drawn. And so I have to come up with complicated workarounds and every time I update a graph I have to do all this stuff over again that should just be a one-click update.
    If anyone out there is looking for a good business opportunity, build a graphing plugin for Indesign or Illustrator - I'll be happy to test it!

  • Where is the "done" button in Flash CS4 when using Flash Builder 4's new flash component or container?

    The documentation for Flash Builder 4 beta says that after opening flash from flash builder, I should click a "done" button in flash and flash should close and what I created in flash should be included as a component or container in Flash Builder.  Using the Flash Builder 4 beta on Windows, when I click on the "create in flash" button on the properties panel for either the new flash component or container, Flash CS4 opens, I create something in Flash and no "done" button is present.  Nor is anything present in the menus resembling a "done" option.  Where is it?

    Hi Jeffrey:
    Still no done button.  Now under commands in Flash I can convert symbols to flex components and containers and these show up in the Flash library.
    Thanks:

    Hi,
    You may need to install FlexComponentKit.mxp to your Flash CS4 beforehand.

    I apparently didn't get one.  I've looked under various workspace configurations.  Another thing that seems odd is that when Flash opens I get the opening panel that allows me to select the type of file and version of AS I want to use.  I select new file with AS3.  Any ideas on why the "done" button wouldn't be present and if the opening panel is what I should expect on opening Flash after clicking the "create in Flash" button?

  • Is it possible to set the default colours in the swatches palette in Illustrator CS4?

    Is it possible to set the default colours in the swatches palette in Illustrator CS4? What I mean is replace the swatches default colour palette with my own, so that each time I create a new document it comes up with my colours rather than Illustrators.

    You might also consider using color groups with Illustrator. Let me know what you think. It may help you out with projects that use the same color preferences.
    Check out the tutorial here:

  • Where is the Crop tool in CS6?

    I used to use the Rectangular Marquee to crop an image, but that is no longer an option.  Where is the Crop tool?  I tried to use instructions at Photoshop Help | Adjusting crop, rotation, and canvas but that did not help.  It never did tell you how to crop an image.

    I used to use the Rectangular Marquee to crop an image, but that is no longer an option.
    Why?
    Make the Selection, then use Image > Crop if you want to use that Tool.
    The Crop Tool still has the single-key-shorcut C, so depending on your settings hitting C or shift-C repeatedly should select the Tools with which the Crop Tool shares a space in the Toolbox in turn.
