I would open the file in illustrator and just select what you need. It should be straightforward unless there is something else going on with the file.

michelew83603738 · ‎Nov 04, 2024

You can post a request to https://illustrator.uservoice.com/ It may be in the works, but so far not there.

When you launch, do you first see the what is new screen? If so, you might quickly click through those and then that might disappear. That is what happened for me.

michelew83603738 · ‎Oct 18, 2024

So easy!

michelew83603738 · ‎Oct 17, 2024

You're welcome.

Generally speaking, svg is used for web/digital applications. It allows scaling easily so that the logo, for example, can be adapted to various screen sizes. Is their printer asking for an svg? Usually, for print, you would supply the .ai file itself or most commonly a pdf.

This is a vector image or raster? If you created it in Illustrator, you should just be able to delete the white fills. If it is a pixel image, it would be easier to delete the white in Photoshop if available. If not, you would need to create a very complex clipping mask.

michelew83603738 · ‎Aug 23, 2024

If I am understanding you correctly, you want just a ring of the image with the center hollow. If so, you need to release the original clipping path, create a compound path and then use it as a clipping mask. Alternatively, you can release the clipping, subtract the smaller circle from the larger one and then create the clipping mask.

michelew83603738 · ‎Aug 12, 2024

What problem are you dealing with in detail? What is making the file large? Effects? Too many anchor points? You might be able to simplify a path or create a graphic style that can be applied. Need more info to really help.

michelew83603738 · ‎Jun 19, 2024

You can also change it in the Properties Panel under appearance.

If you are having problems with all files openning, then normal trouble shooting I take is to log out of my Creative Cloud, shut down the computer, restart and log back in. If the problem still persists, I would uninstall and then reinstall Illustrator. Perhaps something got corrupted and this is my wa to fix it. Hope that helps.

For some reason the Taj Mahal is against user guidelines. There is no reasoning given, perhaps no images that are usable in the AI. But there is a thread about upvoting why images are against user guidelines, so that we know for sure at:Show words omitted from prompt or violates content guidelines

a sushi dinner including smelt roe, crispy rice with spicy tuna, marinated yellowtail with jalapeno pepper, popcorn shrimp tiger roll, soft-shell crab, Karachi chicken, some sake all against the backdrop of a beautiful outside setting, just as the sun dips, giving a beautiful golden light

michelew83603738 · ‎May 28, 2024

That might be helpful, but I am using common words that should be interpreted that way, not in an unusual manner by any means.

michelew83603738 · ‎May 27, 2024

I have noticed that when giving some prompts, they are deemed not allowed but no reason is given. This is rather confusing and it would be helpful if the prompt is highlighted and some reasoning given. I have turned to other AI apps when this has happened and received not similar warnings for the same exact prompts.

michelew83603738 · ‎May 23, 2024

You are welcome, glad that worked.

michelew83603738 · ‎May 23, 2024

You are most welcome!

It looks like you have drawn 2 artboards on your original one. Go to the artboard panel and see if they are there and if so, simply delete them.

michelew83603738 · ‎May 22, 2024

Change the end cap setting as shown in image. The second one is rounded as you want.

michelew83603738 · ‎May 21, 2024

I don't see a problem with the eps that you sent. All of the paths are closed, not as you say open. I can give it a solid fill and there is no problem. But this is not a complete file as the green and white layers are not in it. Are there perhaps some single ancchor points in that file on the same layer?

michelew83603738 · ‎May 14, 2024

Can you expand your layers panel so we can see what is going on in that group.

michelew83603738 · ‎May 14, 2024

How are you applying it? Use the appearance panel, make sure you add the white stroke below the brown one and it must be thicker than the brown one, as the stroke starts at the edge of the type, not where the brown one ends. So if the brown stroke is 3 points, for example, you might want the white one to be 5 points.

michelew83603738 · ‎May 14, 2024

I am not exactly clear what you want to do. You want it so that there is a cut out of the sailboat in the sunset? If so, you must have paths, but you still have a pixel based image. You can use Image Trace to create vectors, clean up the image if necessary, and then use the Pathfinder Commands to subtracat the sailboat from the sunset.

Have you restarted illustrator and your computer? Are you working with the updated version of illustrator?

michelew83603738 · ‎Mar 23, 2024

Can you tell me your process of saving?

michelew83603738 · ‎Mar 22, 2024

Looks like a stray anchor point to me that you are selecting. When you say you are trying to manipulate text, what do you mean? Did you convert the text to outlines? If not, there is just one anchor point at the beginning of the text to manipulate or the bounding box if you used area type.

michelew83603738 · ‎Mar 22, 2024

I would first try to troubleshoot by signing out and then into the Creative Cloud. And what happens if you do drag it into an AI file, is it then editable?

michelew83603738 · ‎Mar 20, 2024

It is still blurry, but as I explained, there is a difference between the two based on what you did to the object. As a practical matter, once you expand, the live effect will not be editable anymore. But you end with an expanded object in both cases.

michelew83603738 · ‎Mar 20, 2024

Generally, expand appearance is when something else (like a warp for example) has been applied and is live and therefore editable. It would also appear if an appearance had been added via the appearance panel. The video is blurry for me, so I am not sure if you did any of those things, but that is when expand appearance versus expand would show up.
