Create a logo with the Pen tool 151
Group the shape
You can manipulate the stroke and fill of a shape as separate entities, as you
did earlier, or you can group the stroke with the fill to manipulate the
shape as a single graphic, which you’ll do now.
1.
With the Selection tool, drag around the shape to select both the stroke
and the fill. Select Modify > Group.
2. Click the fill area and move the shape around the left side of the Stage,
as desired, to place it.
Create a logo with the Pen tool
The Pen tool offers a way to draw precise straight or curved line segments.
You click to create points on straight line segments, and drag to create
points on curved line segments. You can adjust the segments by adjusting
points on the line. You’ll use the Pen tool to create the logo.
1. In the Tools panel, select the Pen tool.
2. Click the dot next to the number 1, and then click the dot next to the
number 2 to create a straight line segment.
3.
Click the dot next to the number 3 and next to the number 4 in
sequence (as though you were completing a dot-to-dot drawing). You
create the straight line segments that comprise the logo.
4. To close the path, position the Pen tool over the first anchor point (the
dot by number 1). A small circle appears next to the pen tip when it is
positioned correctly. Click to close the path. After the path is closed, it
fills with the selected fill color.
By default, selected curve points appear as hollow circles, and selected
corner points appear as hollow squares.
