Create & Edit Custom Paths & Shapes | Adobe Illustrator Essentials

Описание: Learn how to create and edit custom paths and shapes using the Pen Tool, Anchor Point Tool and Direct Selection Tool. Create straight or curved lines by drawing with the Pen Tool. Then, edit the path (open shape) or closed shape by adjusting anchor points and bezier handles using the Direct Selection Tool. You’ll learn how to add and subtract anchor points, cut paths, join paths, and turn straight lines into curved lines by adding bezier handles with the Convert Vertex Tool and vice versa. Plus, learn how to adjust the thickness of the stroke at different points along a path.
