VectorScribeEffortlessly reduce file size and make artwork easier to edit by removing excess points, using our three dedicated tools. Either let the Smart Removal Brush automatically remove points with a pressure sensitive brush action, or use the PathScribe panel to Smart Remove Selected Points or Remove Duplicate Points. Both intelligently remove points with one press of a button whilst working hard to maintain the path shape.
Highly requested from designers, the Reposition Point Tool allows you to slide a point along a path whilst working to maintain the path shape, with annotations to show you the optimal clockwork point placement. Another favorite particularly with typographers, fashion designers and technical illustrators is the Extend Path Tool, which allows designers to extend or trim paths to exact lengths or intersections.These stand alone tools both work in the same way, simply click-and-drag your chosen point.
Use one tool to create a wide range of shapes from squares, gears to hearts. Enter specific values into the Dynamic Shapes panel or simply click-and-drag the shape annotations to edit segments and sides, true shape origin, height, width and diameter, corner radius and slice angles.
Compatible with text areas, clipping masks, within Live Paint artwork and can have live effects applied to them whilst remaining dynamic. One press of a button converts all basic geometric shapes to/from dynamic.
“Building Blocks” is our phrase for effects that you can use in a wide variety of scenarios, not just to create a single resultant style (unlike, say, AG Block Shadows, which has a singular purpose). From AG Corners to the Path Visualizer, you can create non-destructive graphic styles that work on closed or open paths, and even live type.
