Add a fixed spacing value in the Scatter Brush options.Select the circle and click the Draw Inside button on the toolbar before you brush.✔️.Select the Screen blending mode before you brush.How can you ensure that the stars appear only inside the circle? You want to add some stars to the circular background object in the image below, using a scatter brush. The fill color would remain RGB but its appearance would change.Illustrator would display an error because you can’t paste an object with RGB colors into a CMYK file.The fill color would be converted to CMYK values✔️.What would happen to the fill color of the object shown below if you copied and pasted it into another Illustrator file where the Document Color Mode was set to CMYK? Now that the grid is locked into the correct position, you will begin creating your cityscape by adding content to it.Q1. You can change only the visibility and the grid plane position, which you will work with later in this lesson. This option restricts the grid movement and other grid editing features that use the Perspective Grid tool. Choose View > Perspective Grid > Lock Grid.Notice that this now changes both grids on the two-point Perspective Grid. With the Perspective Grid tool, drag the left vanishing point to the left again, until it reaches the left Horizon Line point.This locks the left and right vanishing points so that they move together. Choose View > Perspective Grid > Lock Station Point.You are able to undo most changes made to the Perspective Grid. Choose Edit > Undo Perspective Grid Edit.Notice that this changes only the left (blue) grid on the two-point Perspective Grid. With the Perspective Grid tool, drag the left vanishing point to the left until it reaches the left horizon line point.When you have finished making changes, click OK. You can also experiment with the Grid Color & Opacity settings. You can also edit settings like Horizon Height and Viewing Angle, which you can also edit on the artboard using the Perspective Grid tool. Notice that you can change the Scale of the grid, which you might want to do if real world measurements are involved. The Viewing Distance is the distance between the observer and the scene. In the Define Perspective Grid dialog box, change the Units to Inches, and change the Gridline Every value to.Choose View > Perspective Grid > Define Grid.Next, you will access these changes using the Define Grid menu.
Setting the grid up for your drawing is an important step. Changes you make to the Perspective Grid are saved with this document only. Making the vertical extent shorter can be a way to minimize the grid if you are drawing objects that are less precise, as you will see later in the lesson. With the Perspective Grid tool, click and drag the Vertical Grid Extent point down to shorten the vertical extent.With the Perspective Grid tool, drag the horizontal grid plane control point up a bit so that it's closer to the horizon line.The ground level point allows you to drag the Perspective Grid to different parts of the artboard or to a different artboard altogether. Drag until the horizon line you adjusted in the previous step is lined up with the bottom of the blue sky. With the Perspective Grid tool, drag the left ground level point up to move the whole Perspective Grid.The location of the horizon line indicates the observer's eye level. The measurement label should show approximately 147 pt. With the Perspective Grid showing two-point perspective and the Perspective Grid tool ( ) selected, drag the horizon line point down below the bottom of the blue sky to move the horizon down, as shown in the figure.You can create only one grid per Illustrator document. You can make changes to the grid if you have content on the grid, although it may be easier to establish the grid settings before you add content. To edit the grid, you can either select the Perspective Grid tool or edit using the Define Grid menu item.
Next, you'll learn how to edit the Perspective Grid. Note: This excerpt is from a draft manuscript and may not be representative of the final published work.
