What does "path intersections..." under Object, Path do?

[stevens70907226]

I've tried googling but those keywords, even with quotes, give me hits with everything but what I'm looking for. 

I'm siimply trying to understand what all functions/commands in Illustrator do. I've tried creating different paths and overlapping them then selecting Path Interactions..., expecting a dialoge box to open up, but none does and nothing changes in what I've selected. So what is this function for?

I am not sure where you did find those Path intersections.

Can you show a screendump?

Are you talking about the desktop version of Illustrator?

[stevens70907226]

Here's a screen cap to show what I'm talking about. And yes, it's Illurstrator for a PC, the most current version on my Mac.

You seem to have some plugins installed. Which ones?

That option (and a few others) is not available in a regular AI installation.

[stevens70907226]

Okay. But what is it supposed to do? Now I'm just curious. Is there a master maual that might have the information?

You will need to ask the maker of the plug-in. Astute Graphics?

[Monika Gause · Accepted solution]

To find out the plugin please check out the "Illustrator" menu item. It lists your plugins.

And then maybe read that plugin's documentation.

Oh, I see. It doesn't come as part of Illustrator. I didn't realize that Astude Graphics tools went into that deep into Illustrator. 

Now I understand. 

Thanks,

Plugins go into all the menus.

Which one is it?
