    I’m just returning to Illustrator after not using it for many years. This was absolutely fantastic. By far the best I’ve ever watched. I realize there may have been some changes since this was published but the basics will be the same and I now feel confident that I can now tackle my projects with confidence. Thanks so much.

    I learned illustrator with a tutorial in 2012 but didn't keep up with it since then. I was kinda frustrated that I forgot so many things about this software because I know it is amazing for drawings.
    I'm following a tutorial to draw kawaii images and I had 4 options... procreate, clip studio art, photoshop and illustrator. I thought I could give it a try again. Almost didn't click when I saw it was more than 3 hours...
    THANK GOD I CLICKED! I followed a lot of tutorials in my life and I have NEVER had one as great as this one! The explications are super clear, it's easy to learn, it gets to the point... WOW. This is amazing. I can't thank you enough!

    How did you increased size of toolbars and fonts?

    • @LearnitTraining
      @LearnitTraining  Рік тому

      To increase the size of the toolbar in Illustrator, you can do the following:
      Open Illustrator > Preferences > User Interface.
      Adjust the UI Scaling slider.
      Click on OK.
      Restart Illustrator as instructed.
      To resize panel icons so that you see only the icons (and not the labels), adjust the width of the dock until the text disappears. To display the icon text again, make the dock wider.To scale to a certain size, you can use the transform tool. Go to your top tool bar, navigate to Window > Transform. This will open the transform tool. With your artwork you want to scale selected, navigate to the transform pop-up toolbar you just opened. Make sure the “Constrain Width and Height Proportions” button is activated.

    The only thing I can't understand is how you did is the shape of the light reflection on the avocado pit (in the shape builder tool section). I can do the long curves but don't understand how you did the top and bottom smaller curves. In any case, I am grateful for your classes.

    Hi there, thanks for the incredible tutorial. It has done me very well and I am feeling great with Illustrator despite being a complete beginner.
    Please help me with one of the exercise files. The pot plant and utilizing shape builder tool. I am struggling to split the pot in half to create the shadow effect, due to it's precise nature of being split exactly in half. I tried creating 2 copy + paste layers but can't get it to cut in half, I also looked at your Illustrator file resource but struggle to replicate. I can only replicate by doing it another way which I know isn't how its meant to be done (very tedious manual work). I have the same struggle with the leafs because same concept. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you

    I'm using Illustrator 2022. It seems like some of the commands are different between 2022 and the edition that you are using. Do you have a chart or anything with recommended settings? Example- my arrow keys are not increasing/decreasing the amount of points/lines.

    It would be great if you can do such in-depth tutorials on alternatives to Adobe Creative Suite.
