Adobe illustrator 10 Manuale Utente

 

The first time you start Illustrator, the toolbox appears on the left side of the screen. 
The tools in the toolbox let you create, select, and manipulate objects in Illustrator. 

When you select most tools, the mouse pointer matches the tool’s icon. For example, 
choosing the paintbrush tool changes the pointer to a paintbrush. You can also change a 
tool pointer to a precision pointer, such as a cross hair  , for greater precision when 
aligning or working with detailed artwork. 

 

Drag the toolbox by the top bar.

 

To show or hide the toolbox, choose Window > Tools. When the toolbox is showing, 
a check mark appears before the name.

 

Press a tool in the toolbox that has hidden tools underneath it. (Tools that have hidden 

tools are identified by a triangle in the lower right corner.)

 

When the toolbar of hidden tools appears, hold down the mouse button and drag to 

the arrow at the end of the toolbar. The toolbar detaches from the toolbox. 

 

Click the close box.

 

Do one of the following:

 

While the tool is selected, press Caps Lock on the keyboard.

 

Choose Edit > Preferences > General (Windows and Mac OS 9) or Illustrator > 

Preferences > General (Mac OS X), select Use Precise Cursors, and click OK.

 

Adobe Illustrator includes a number of palettes to help you monitor and modify your 
work. By default, these palettes appear stacked together in several groups. You can also 
dock palettes so that you can move them together. 

 

You can display and hide palettes as you work.
