[@vasharal38]

Without a doubt when it comes to tutorial, you're my go to. Thank you very much for all your efforts to teach us!

[@CosminSerbanDesign]

Honestly I've never used the pathfinder tool with the compound shape option, but I can see how useful it can be, a lot of times I would have liked to be able to still have control but never thought there's a solution for it, thanks for the video!

[@changmahwenn7632]

Very useful. I need to start using the pathfinder panel more often now

[@razisalaheldin]

wow , i ve been using this pathfinder for years ,,, but never knew all these functions exist,,,, thanks ,, u r the man

[@turitamasnyirbator]

[@lilipuff3434]

Nice job!

[@omegashin9420]

These are by far the best quality illustrator tutorials I've found.

[@phknutson]

Awesome video... learned more about Pathfinder tools than a handful of other videos!

[@mattkaz9604]

Great tips, thank you.

[@Mung1983]

Hey Nate, please can you show us the function in illustrator where you create a shape on either side and then press something and the same shapes fill up in the middle with the same distance between them.

[@cms4Lena]

Sublime. Thanks a lot!

[@DavidMathieson]

REALLY appreciate these and other AI tutorials. I've been a video editor for a while and I'm trying to improve my AI game for a number of reasons. Thank you, my brother!

[@BuffyKNC]

this is super helpful, thank you!!

[@sajadsoorni]

Hi thanks for this amazing tutorial. just a question , why when I want to make the Doughnut shape with pathfinder (exactly like your method >> Select > Make compound shape) the result is different ?! result is like both shapes with same color

[@stevefromhighschool]

Learned a lot from you thanks 🙏

[@madelinegrudens]

Perfect tutorial and totally useful information! New sub! And you get right to the point.... Amen

[@xperimentalone]

It’s these little details that make illustrator so powerful in comparison to Serif Affinity Designer.

[@jdanielortega]

Flawless as always, great Work Nath.

[@MdAbdullah-gn4jz]

You are better than best

[@kyzersmansion2487]

Hey,love your videos and got to learn a lot.Could you do a video on compound paths,I only really used them when I wanted to apply a single gradient over multiple shapes.

[@alexandrugrecov8964]

yes, some functions are hidden and I saw them first time, thank you for enlighten me.

[@alexd.3127]

Very helpful, thank you!

[@Koreanmakyaj]

Third shape I’m trying to do it same as how you did but . When I press Compound shape middle circle colour not becoming white . When I press Compound shape All shape becomes one colour same as like middle shape colour .please I’m wait for your answer

[@maggiemaunakea8167]

Can you show us how to do a layered 2 level cake look? I also want to fill in the cake layers with multicolors, like a rainbow cake, But it actually has to look like a cake that can be filled. I really want to learn how to do such a unique pattern. But really love your videos and you explain it all so well, which is why I ask.

[@TechShow90]

Thanks

[@iraceruk]

Excellent as usual 👍 I find the terminology they use for tools and methods in Illustrator hopelessly confusing! They should rename things to something more appropriate such as 'Minus Front' being called something like 'Delete Back' etc, etc. As for Masks? I've been using Illustrator and Photoshop for years and I still can't get my head around them! 🤐

[@bgnikstov]

Can we use pathfinder on Symbols? I find that its usable only for shapes

[@rafail.tsilopoulos]

very good tips thx

[@KonradasDesignCo]

Thank You, Nathaniel! :)

[@tutvid]

Thanks for watching, man!

[@ozoneozon928]

vry nice bro..

[@irechukwu]

How were you able to get a while fill on the inner circle when you made a compound shape out of two circle in point #3? I thought compound shape takes the fill of the object on top?

[@imdadulhaque7734]

THANKS YOU SO MUCH.

[@randomrandy3059]

how does the audio sound so good?

[@katemoon7476]

High quality microphone, with windshield, isolated from computer vibrations through that desk-lamp thing, he modulates his voice a bit like a radio announcer, speaks close to microphone, and is probably in a room away from street so you don't get the sound of garbage truck hydraulics and a beep, beep, beep!

[@appadlee]

Thank you thank you thank you just what I needed. 🖖

[@Tips-Tutorial-ID]

[@sams901]

about the fifth trick I tried to merge two rings and a warning showed up telling me I need to select two or more filled and overlapping paths in order to merge them but you didn't have to do it... I don't get it ... Would be thankful for some help!

[@amirulidzham3686]

Hi Nathaniel, thanks for a great video. I have a question, how do I join a shape with a line. First, I make a square shape with square tool, then I make a line using line tool. But when I try to joined both line (trying to joining both anchor of box and line), it give me this "The selected objects cannot be joined as they are invalid objects (Compound paths, Closed paths, Text objects, Graphs, Live Paint group). You can use Join command to connect two or more paths, paths in groups; or to close an open path." Can you make a tutorial for this in future?

[@sailenghosh1978]

[@sunnyglen9429]

Good info; you go a bit too fast for me so I'll have to watch a few times.

[@Fabitalism]

2:03 What is the difference between this "Pathfinder-mode" and placing a white object above the other one?

[@lopez_znad_Bugu]

I think it's not white but "blank". Like mask in Photoshop

[@IStMl]

Then what's the difference with putting opacity to 0 ?

[@JoeBodego]

nice

[@achievefilmmakers110]

please the last one explain

[@Vikas20a]

I cant hear the audio

[@jasonpofahl952]

When I make the 2 ellipses into a compound shape, both end up the same color green instead of the cutout center circle. Any thoughts on what step I am missing here? Thnks

[@tutvid]

You may not have set the shape drawing method to "Subtract Front" up in the menu bar for the shape tool. Hope that helps!

[@Vektorgarten]

@@tutvid That's how you would do it in Photoshop. Illustrator doesn't have that.

[@irechukwu]

Had same question too @vektorgarten Any tip?

[@Eyeshotify]

I guess this doesn't work for cs6

[@calledfenrir]

I made it 1K xD

[@360MIX]

Want to watch Nathaniel DRUNK? Play at -0.5 Speed.....

[@marieflood6626]

Talking so fast o_o i get stressed. Otherwise good tutorial!

[@karenkline7221]

you can adjust the playback speed by clicking the settings icon in the bottom right corner of the video, then click on "speed" then click a slower speed like 0.75 or 0.5

[@ninnin5289]

Useful, but you talk too fast

[@Jharries1971]

Weird, you disappeared from my subscriptions, not sure if thats happening to you a lot.

[@IStMl]

Do you mean the subs feed or the sub list of all channels you subbed to ? YT is experiencing a new feed that doesn't show all videos chronologically, myabe that's why

[@anika6558]

PLS MAKE US MORE UNDERSTANDABLE NOT QUICK AND TOO MUCH TALKS

[@aarongera7001]

That's 100% true, make it slow

[@hannahbrown8945]

Muku Mia for a native speaker he’s perfectly understandable - people talk this fast in real life 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@melanieshepherd7038]

you could try talking a little slower

[@PikesCore24]

Can you talk any faster? I'll bet you can if you really try.

[@tpe5879]

Can’t find the merge and u talk too much

[@anika6558]

YOU TALK SO MUCH THAN WORK...
