2 Keeping the mouse button pressed, release and press the Shift or Alt/Opt key, and draw the next segment.
Continuing a path
The continue-path cursor ( ) is shown when the mouse pointer is within a predefined number of pixels from the
endpoint.
The predefined number of pixels is set in the Pencil Tool Options dialog box > Within field.
Merging paths
To merge two paths:
1 Select the paths you want to merge.
2 Extend one path, and bring it closer to the other path.
3 When the path-merge cursor ( ) appears, release the mouse button to merge the paths.
Smooth Tool
Presets
Double-click the Smooth Tool icon in the Toolbox to open the Smooth Tool Options dialog. A preset-based Fidelity
slider is available for the Smooth tool.
Note: The Smooth tool is no longer available by holding Alt/Opt key while using the Pencil tool.
Paintbrush and Blob Brush tool
The four preset slider is also available in Paintbrush and Blob Brush Tool Options dialogs.
Pen tool rubberband preview
While using the Pen tool, it has been difficult to predict the path that will be drawn, unless an anchor point is dropped
on the canvas. From the 2014 release of Illustrator CC, the Pen tool, displays a preview of the path that will be drawn
from the previous anchor point to the current position of the pointer.
1 Using the Pen tool, click once on the artboard to draw a smooth point, and drag the mouse to create the handles as
required.
When you draw a smooth point with the Pen tool, the opposite handles are always equal and paired. Press Cmd /
Ctrl while dragging the handles of a smooth point, to create handles that are unequal in length (pairing remains
intact).
2 Release the mouse button. When you move the mouse pointer across the artboard, a path is displayed indicating
what will be drawn if you choose to drop an anchor point at the location of the mouse pointer.
