What’s New

Shape Builder in Illustrator CS5
Intuitively combine, edit, and fill shapes by dragging the cursor across overlapping shapes and 
paths to create new objects and add color. Without accessing multiple tools and panels, you can 

quickly unite, exclude, trim, and more. For example, you can draw a stroke across a the middle of a 
circle and quickly create two half-circles—no need to open a panel or choose another tool.

Coloring fills and strokes is easier now, too. The Shape Builder tool includes interactive color 

selection for quickly filling closed or partially closed areas of your artwork, automatic gap 

detection, and the option of choosing whether or not to automatically fill new shapes.

Now you can streamline design and production by including different page sizes in a single 
InDesign document. In a project that includes a magazine layout with foldouts, or a marketing 

collateral project with brochures of different dimensions, changing a paragraph style or color 

swatch no longer requires updating separate files.

Use the new Page Selection tool to select individual pages, which you can resize using Control 
panel options. You can even apply the same master page to document pages of varying sizes and 

use the Page Selection tool to reposition 
master content for different layouts.

Drag the cursor 
across selected 

shapes to 

merge them.

Design an icon quickly with overlapping 

objects, and then use the Shape Builder 

tool to merge and subtract shapes.

The completed icon 

consists of one white 
shape on top of one blue.

Turn on Cursor Swatch 

Preview to see color 

swatches on your cursor.

Combining multiple page sizes in a single 
InDesign file makes it much easier to lay out 
documents with complex folds, such as this 
magazine with a cover flap. Multiple page sizes 
are shown in the Pages panel and pasteboard.
