Enhancement: In Illustrator CC 2014, this warning has been removed. If you click incorrectly, no change occurs to the
selected path or anchor point. This change is aimed at reducing one click to dismiss the warning, translating into one
less break in a design workflow.
Symbols
About symbols
A symbol is an art object that you can reuse in a document. For example, if you create a symbol from a flower, you can
then add instances of that symbol multiple times to your artwork without actually adding the complex art multiple
times. Each symbol instance is linked to the symbol in the Symbols panel or to a symbols library. Using symbols can
save you time and greatly reduce file size.
Symbols also provide excellent support for SWF and SVG export. When you export to Flash, you can set the symbol
type to MovieClip. Once in Flash, you can choose another type if necessary. You can also specify 9-slice scaling in
Illustrator so that the symbols scale appropriately when used for user interface components.
Note: For information on using symbols in Flash, see Flash Help. For a video on using symbols effectively, see
www.adobe.com/go/lrvid5204_ai_en.
After you place a symbol, you can edit the symbols instances on the artboard and, if you want, redefine the original
symbol with the edits. The symbolism tools let you add and manipulate multiple symbol instances at once.
Symbols panel overview
You can use the Symbols panel (Window > Symbols) or the Control panel to manage the symbols for a document. The
Symbols panel contains a variety of preset symbols. You can add symbols from symbol libraries or libraries that you
create. See
Symbol librariesfor information about using preset symbols.
