Prevent color mixing between boundaries of a map

Community Beginner ,
Feb 24, 2023 Feb 24, 2023

Hola amigos, buen día.

Requiero su ayuda, por favor. Diseñé el mapa para mi novela y me tocó definir los límites de ciertos reinos y aquí es donde surge mi problema. Por ejemplo, trazé tres reinos vecinos colindantes; uno de color rojo,verde y otro amarillo pero no puedo simplemente dibujar uno al lado de otro porque se solapan en las orillas creando un nuevo color indeseado. Tuve que ajustar manualmente las anclas de la pluma y tardé de cada uno y tarde casi tres horas en terminarlo (a nivel macro o quedó solapado o quedaron espacios vaciós que no pude tapar), ¿habrá en Illustrator alguna herramienta que me permita mover y ajustar las zonas de colores y que los demás tambien se vayan ajustando al limite sin solaparse? (imagen de referencia).

Maestro,

 

For each adjoining/common part of the boundaries, you can:

 

1) Choose/create the boundaries of one of the kingdoms and let the other one overlap it by a sufficient amount so that it is easy to see and work with;

2) Use the Shape Builder to delete the unwanted overlapping part.

In addition to what Jacob said, you could try Live Paint:

If your version is older than the Shape Builder Tool tou can use Pathfinder Divide and Unite (reuniting the overlap with the rest of the (first) kingdom in 1).

Indeed, Ton, I believe that would be a good first choice.

For my part you are welcome, Maestro; and the very best of luck with your novela.

 

It is also good to know the Live Paint.
