Question

Adobe Illustrator iPad - adjusting curves, values reset

Hi there, 

 

For example, when I select a corner to curve I might put in 9mm, immediately that value changes to 3.175mm. Does anyone know why this might be happening? 

 

Thank you

I'm experiencing this same issue and I think it's a bug. My document is in mm and I'm entering a value of 10 mm for my radius but it changes to 3.528. I think the software is taking the input in points and converting to mm (10 points = 3.528mm). I tried changing to inches and the issue persists. I entered a value of 10 for the radius and it changes to 0.139 inches. Did you ever find a solution to this or is there a setting I'm missing? I'm experienced with Illustrator but new to the iPad version.

I forgot to mention that the slider will also reset to the same value if I scroll to 9mm.

Another update: The issue seems to resolve when I change the units from mm to points. I would still prefer to use mm if possible.

Hi Monika,

 

Here are the screenshots. In the first you'll see the curve value was converted to 3.175 when I put 9mm initially. I have stumbled upon another problem that you'll see in the second screenshot. Initially I was able to alter the edges of the larger shape as evidenced by the curved corners. Now after about a day that option no longer exists. Is this a known bug?

 

Thank you for your help,

 

David


Hi Michael,

 

I was playing around with those shapes just now and noticed that when I changed the dimensions of the larger shape from 110mm to 95mm it would get right of the option to curve corners. This was unfortunately not the case when I tried the same with the smaller shape. Is the iPad version usually this inconsistent? 

 

Thanks,

 

David
