I never knew what that double highlight/click was good for…🤯…and now I do thanks to this channel

[@SatoriGraphics]

Thanks, I think lol..

[@wightangel]

Thank you for another top rated video. You are a absolute godsend.

[@SatoriGraphics]

thanks for the feedback!

[@jarvis20101]

THERE ALWAYS SOMETHING GOOD HERE TO LEARN....THANKS SATORI. WITH LOVE FROM UGANDA

[@SatoriGraphics]

Happy to hear Jarvis, thanks

[@MladenDjakovic]

Nice! Love the intertwine tool! One suggestion: Align the text on path by making it center align and drag the center limiter of the circle to be on the very top. This way it will stay aligned also if you change the font or the text itself. No guides needed.

[@nathanmartin6575]

The object alignment tip is gold. Thank you.

[@SatoriGraphics]

No worries:)

[@timothysolly7863]

Super useful as always, love geeking out in Illustrator, thanks so much!

[@SatoriGraphics]

Haha thanks:)

[@graphicallydeb9897]

I use the alignment tip every day… pretty much the only tip that wasn’t new or expanded…LOVE IT! Thank you!

[@jektooo]

Thanks ; I learn 2 news things (Align and Pathfinder + compound shape)

[@SatoriGraphics]

happy to hear that man

[@MARIOCHRISTOFORIDESDESIGNER]

big thank you

[@schuylerdalenberg3438]

Over and Over you give us GAME CHANGERS! thanks for the great content

[@SatoriGraphics]

thanks man!

[@tulp_graphics]

That intertwine tool is pretty awesome! I work with Affinity (which is a great option for aspiring graphic designers like myself) and it's nice to see that a lot of tools and functions are alike. There were definitely some tips in this video I have to try out. Thanks for sharing!

[@SatoriGraphics]

Totally agree, thinks

[@Positively46]

Thank you!!

[@SatoriGraphics]

You're welcome

[@Artist77osi]

Great Observation, Satori

[@smtraveluk2141]

I really like what you teach ....😮 it’s amazing

[@SatoriGraphics]

thank you very much

[@deaf2heart]

At 6:10 you can center the text by clicking and dragging the edges of the type on a path and drag them to both ends (or for a full circle I put both ends at the bottom center point (or the top if your text is on the bottom of a circle). Then you can use the center paragraph alignment. Easy peasy!

[@MiRofek]

Wild Stuff! Awesome!

[@SatoriGraphics]

cheers :)

[@zmbrsys]

Cool tips buddy. I love the Appearance panel. I discovered it a few years ago and use it all the time. But I apply strokes and effects to groups through this panel. Then I add more items or remove from the group. Drop shadow and strokes will update. Before I knew about the Appearance panel, I used to just duplicate my text and add thicker strokes. Fixing a typo or making the text a template took a while because I had to go through multiple text elements to update the text.

[@RN_Designer]

*Best content as usual. Thanks for Share*

[@shafik1227]

All along that alignment feature existed 😮.

[@SatoriGraphics]

ikr lol

[@abdullahwazir4759]

I mean this what we need for the feature bro🔥🔥. Great tutorial again❤️❤️.

[@SatoriGraphics]

thanks man, and congrats on the first comment 🏅

[@maxxleeml]

Sure i learnt a lot from you... thanks

[@SatoriGraphics]

My pleasure

[@maxxleeml]

@@SatoriGraphics Hi Satori, would like to check with you how to copy any paste the shape exactly on top of the copy object? Thank you.

[@starlightbright]

So helpful!!

[@SatoriGraphics]

Good to hear that, thanks!

[@josemiguelvelasco5203]

Finally I knew something BEFORE seeing it on a Satori video 😭😆 (the alignment stuff)

[@SatoriGraphics]

haha :P

[@majiskani]

Informative

[@SatoriGraphics]

cheers Mohsin

[@MARIOCHRISTOFORIDESDESIGNER]

thank you

[@SatoriGraphics]

You're welcome Mario :D

[@infinit12]

for first tip you can also use the effect to make duplicates and offset without making copies. you can the save as a preset as well.

[@promise_madu]

Great tips satori, about the pathfinder compound path tip, I usually hold the Alt+the compound path tool I want to use and it automatically changes it to a compound group.

[@SatoriGraphics]

thanks for the input on that man

[@suharyanto79]

Wow! thanks for the tips, this will help me a lot in my designing workflow. Great videos as always!

[@SatoriGraphics]

Happy to help!

[@josepintodesign]

One i learn a few days ago: If you have a shape on top of another and you want to select the shape behind, you just click the first shape and then with control you click to activat and then it will apear a small arrow near your mouse arrow, you click again and you selected the shape behind, this is very useful if you have many layers on top of another you just keep clicking until you reach the shape you want. Also works in indesign

[@BedeLaplume]

​ I always learn something with your videos..To perfect Adobe software skills is a must in the workplace.. Love your channel.. As I mentioned in a previous post comment, I also use the Affinity Designer software part of the Affinity series.. If you ever get a chance to get a version and learn them it would be nice to see some of your tutos.. ​

Awesome tips I didn't even know I needed so bad !

[@SatoriGraphics]

Glad you liked it!

[@KuttyJoe]

Excellent tips. Here's a tip for you. Change the default keyboard shortcut in MacOS for Spotlight Search. Its the same shortcut as the zooming shortcut in Adobe programs so when you go to zoom, Spotlight Search pops up and interrupts your workflow, over and over and over, forever. Apple did wonderful things with MacOS, but this one thing was a big mistake because so many people just live with it like a sickness they can't get rid of. LOL I've been telling people this over their shoulders for probably 15 years and people always go, oh my goodness, that thing was driving me crazy!

[@bdindial]

great video, i would love to learn to create a logo like Nortel Networks

[@vincejeremy4936]

Really amazing.. I learn so much from this video 😁 Thank you for creating this 🙌

[@bungarose84]

awsome!!!!!

[@davinci05131979]

there are handle bars that come up when you're typing on path. if you hit center text align, the handle will move to the middle and you can center it with the anchor points.

[@mohamedallam3039]

Amazing bro ! , As usual

[@SatoriGraphics]

Appreciate that

[@accro_d_art]

Best content as usual 🔥

[@SatoriGraphics]

Appreciate that

[@ButtonsTheMonkey]

For type on that arc, move the little adjustment bar you selected to recenter the copy all the way to the start of the spline and make sure the other is at the end (it seems to be) then hit the center align in the Paragraph tab.

[@SatoriGraphics]

kudos

[@makeyourfaith]

I actually like the ruler tip too, because when you have something starting with say a D, and ending with a Y, it's best to eyeball it as opposed to actual math.

[@JoeBodego]

Nice tips tom, we have to get Adobe to update the appearance panel, this powerful panel can be so much more powerful

[@SatoriGraphics]

I totally agree, and good to see you again Joe

[@JoeBodego]

@@SatoriGraphics good to see you again, yeh the appearance panel is amazing, I just wish there was an injest feature so we can add any element to the appearance panel. There is a work around though but its really taxing, its not for the average illustrator user

[@brotherdave]

I knew one of the things! Lol.

[@SatoriGraphics]

👌😄

[@judiarevalo8580]

2min30 and I'm like WHAT KIND OF SORCERY IS THIS

haha, thanks for the comment Judi :P

SAME

[@lorenzobbanotito]

What's the difference between Milanote and Google drawings?

[@snicksabea]

For the first one, just expand appearance and you’ll have outlined vector.

[@JaleelBeig]

Bro how come you have about three thumbnails for each video which you shuffle & change through til the last one?

[@GaborCsergo]

Hi Tom! Can You duplicate the lines in Appearance panel and use Offset path instead lines width and every second set to background colour.

[@SatoriGraphics]

Yeah I have covered that feature before, thanks for sharing

Something I wish someone talk about is How to make a good design, with a good layout, but with too much information

[@TasfidMahfuj]

I think, I can do better. BTY Thanks...

[@gulaschkeule]

7:26 I really like the style of these. Maybe you can upload a video showing how you did this? This would be awesome 🥹

[@SatoriGraphics]

Sure thing! Maybe I will at some point
