EXPANDI FEATURE

[Heenaaah]

Hi, all so I made a complex illustration with fill, different brushes and gradients and after completing it I expand it so the stroke are okay if resize the artwork. However, when I expand once it still shows me the option to expand again and again. I have expanded the artwork for about 10 times! I don't know how many times more do I need to expand and why is it showing? Am I doing anything wrong? Is there a shortcut to expand everything about the artwork at once?

You just need to check the outline view after expanding and if it shows it the way you want it, then you leave the Expand command alone.

hey so there are small small brush strokes and few portions are just painted by brush, so how do I check if the outline for each and everything has been converted to a fill?

Select All.

Check the Fill/Stroke proxy (at the bottom of the Tools panel and/or at the top-left of the Color panel). It should have a question mark in the Fill (indicating multiple fill colors), and None in the Stroke (indicating no stroked paths are included in the selection), like these:

If the Stroke proxy shows a color or question marks, you still have one or more stroked (un-expanded) paths.
