I love the fact you demoed a tool I have never seen put in use. Would love to see more tutorials like this to see how other tools are used.

[@meaganthemarionette4899]

The fact that it's actually called a squircle and you didn't just make it up brings me joy this morning

[@robo-node8446]

Perfect tutorial

[@akramovico]

I haven't seen anywhere a deeper knowledge of illustrator tools as much as on this channel, thanks a lot for sharing that knowledge with us!

[@ForeverDansky]

You're very welcome! It’s so great to hear that the videos are helpful 😊

[@romaindesanti4366]

Short , helpfull , and not a rounded corner square . You can also make a squircle with effect > dilate on a rounded corner square

[@lc3]

Aw I love the widdle squircle.

[@Usererror28]

I’ll call it a Cquare 🎉 thank you for this tip!

[@neorientalist]

Wow, I saw some scripts but didn’t realize how to do it manually.
Thanks!!!

[@ForeverDansky]

You're welcome!

[@Aikon94]

Thanks, quick video and very useful

[@dotpenji]

You've made creating a squircle in Adobe Illustrator look so easy! How did you discover this technique, and can you share any other creative design tricks or tips you have up your sleeve?

[@shekinahmariesol8919]

I'm a beginner in Illustrator, but I was able to follow your tutorial easily. Thanks for making it so clear and concise!

[@zacbermudez6054]

Super helpful, and your explanation was clear. Keep up the great work!

[@DenverOrtiz]

Very informative for beginners, Kudos!

[@jeromelajom4856]

Thanks, Dansky, for the quick tutorial on creating a squircle in Adobe Illustrator! It was super helpful and easy to follow. Looking forward to your next tutorial

[@markanthonymanayan2136]

Thanks for the helpful tutorial since drawing a squircle in Illustrator is much easier with this tool.

[@WebDevKev]

Wow, amazing video. Quick, to the point, under two minutes. Perfect, bravo! 👏🏻

[@ForeverDansky]

Thanks so much Kevin! 😊

[@thinkdezign]

Use Astute Graphics Plugin - There is just a simple option to draw Squircle just like we draw a normal circle

[@JamiltonMacedo]

Nice tip. I had been using Inflate on a rectangle, but this Arc tool looks better.

[@onurbalik]

Been wondering for years how this works or even how it's called. Great find!

[@davemorgang]

That's great, man! I didn't know about this tool! 👌

[@ForeverDansky]

Glad I could help!

[@minarabiei6384]

amazing as always

[@ForeverDansky]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@keyoor18]

I created it like this: draw rounded rectangle> object> envelope distort > inflate/bulge. Very long process. I will use your method now. Its more simple.

[@Graphikos822]

Nice work

[@user-yp3mv4cu8j]

your video always helpful for me thank you

[@ForeverDansky]

Amazing 😊

[@Spenelo]

Love this, sending it to a friend who I just had a convo about today! :D

[@ForeverDansky]

Thanks for sharing! 😁

[@OkieEkoWardoyo]

thanks for sharing this simple thing clearly

[@ForeverDansky]

Hey you're welcome! Glad it was helpful 🙂

[@Honeybeeshorts_]

great

[@DesignWho]

this is the best squarcle video. If you say squarcle many times it sounds funny

[@user-ks5kc5qs2c]

I'll try to do this by rounding corners on square and add additional anchor points, but your method is much easier and faster.

[@sprinkdesign7170]

Thanks! Great tip, and super simple. I've not used the ARC tool before, so will play around with it.
I've tried to do a squircle using the 'bloat' tool ( Effect > Distort & Transform > Pucker and Bloat) but it gives strange little effects on the corner points that I have to fix manually..

[@loomonda18]

Could also just create a rectangle and round the corners? Or would that not technically be considered a squircle? lol

[@ForeverDansky]

Technically not no, as it wouldn't have the bulging sides lol

[@loomonda18]

Ahhh!@@ForeverDansky

[@AugustsBeta]

Which PC are you using?

[@seannemetz4856]

I can't find the arc tool and it doesn't come up when searching the help menu. Can you help?

[@seannemetz4856]

oh god I've opened the damn 3d perspective tool by mistake. now I'm screwed

[@ForeverDansky]

@@seannemetz4856 Press Esc to cancel the Perspective Grid Tool. The Arc Tool is under the Line Segment Tool if you click and hold on it 👍

Yay samsung icon
