USING ILLUSTRATOR
What’s New
Last updated 11/8/2011
Specify custom names for your artboards using the Control panel and the Artboards panel. You can paste objects at a
particular location on the artboard and paste artwork on all artboards at the same location using the new Paste in Place
and Paste on All Artboards options. You can also set the option to automatically rotate artboards for printing.
See “Using multiple artboards” on page 33.
Shape Builder tool
The Shape Builder tool is an interactive tool for creating complex shapes by merging and erasing simpler shapes. It
works on simple and compound paths and intuitively highlights edges and regions of the selected art, which can be
merged to form new shapes. For example, you can draw a stroke across the middle of a circle and quickly create two
half-circles without opening any panel or choosing another tool. The Shape Builder tool can also break overlapping
shapes to create distinct objects and easily adopts art styles when objects are merged. You can also enable the Color
Swatch cursor to select colors for your artwork.
See “Building new shapes using the Shape Builder tool” on page 258.
Drawing enhancements
Symbol enhancements
Illustrator CS5 provides enhanced 9-slice scaling support. You can now directly use 9-slice scaling on symbols in
Illustrator, which makes it easier to work with web elements such as rounded rectangle.
See “Symbol registration point” on page 103, “Use 9-slice scaling” on page 104, “Add sublayers for symbols” on
page 104, “Reset transformations” on page 106.
Artboard ruler origin and coordinates enhancement
Artboard ruler origin and coordinates are now oriented from the upper left. Scripts that use a previous coordinate
system also work correctly with this enhancement. You can also choose to work with a global ruler that provides
coordinates across all your artboards, or work with local, artboard-specific rulers.
See “Use rulers” on page 43.
Path join enhancement
Join open paths in a single keystroke with objects selected. You can also choose to join open paths using corner joins
or smooth joins.
See “Join two or more paths” on page 74.
Select behind capability
Use a keyboard shortcut to easily select an individual object located behind other objects.
See “Select behind objects” on page 207.
