Bearing Varies in angle, roundness, or diameter based on the pressure of a drawing stylus. This option is most useful
when used to control the angle of calligraphic brushes, especially when you’re using the brush like a paintbrush. It is
available only if you have a graphics tablet that can detect how close to vertical the pen is.
Rotation Varies in angle, roundness, or diameter based on how the drawing stylus pen tip is rotated. This option is most
useful when used to control the angle of calligraphic brushes, especially when you’re using the brush like a flat pen. It
is available only if you have a graphics tablet that can detect this type of rotation.
Split a path
You can split a path at any anchor point or along any segment. When you split a path, keep the following in mind:
• If you want to split a closed path into two open paths, you must slice in two places along the path. If you slice a closed
path only once, you get a single path with a gap in it.
• Any paths resulting from a split inherit the path settings of the original path, such as stroke weight and fill color.
Stroke alignment is automatically reset to center.
1 (Optional) Select the path to see its current anchor points.
2 Do one of the following:
• Select the Scissors tool and click the path where you want to split it. When you split the path in the middle of a
segment, the two new endpoints appear on top of the other, and one endpoint is selected.
• Select the anchor point where you want to split the path, and then click the Cut Path At Selected Anchor Points
button
in the Control panel. When you split the path at an anchor point, a new anchor point appears on top
of the original anchor point, and one anchor point is selected.
3 Use the Direct Selection tool to adjust the new anchor point or path segment.
Note: You can divide an object into separate component faces by using the Knife tool (a face is an area undivided by a line
segment).

Pixel-aligned is an object level property, which enables an object to have its vertical and horizontal paths aligned to the
pixel grid. This property remains with the object when the object is modified. Any vertical or horizontal path in the
object gets aligned to pixel grid as long as the property is set for it.
