Thanks for taking the time to make these tutorial videos, this one is great!

[Ben]

Brilliant!

 

Having spent days, weeks even, making the Shape tools, it's great to see them being put to use.  On question though - did you try using the Crescent shape for making the petals?  I'd never have imagined anyone using the Tear shape in this way.   :)

[Jobalou]

I was now trying to use the Tear shape and I must admit that if I had used it, I would have saved more time. Thanks for the tip. I have to spend more time exploring the "shapes"

 

Yes, I think the shape tools are very, very useful. We can save a lot of time making certain forms what otherwise would take longer to do.

Thank you for your dedicated time to do this feature. Precious!

Hi Jobalou, thanks for the tutorial, can you tell me the shortcut you used for rotating the shapes?

[ronniemcbride]

How come I cant see this post? :(

[Jobalou]

@ZVK,
Hi! There's no shortcut for rotating the shapes. When the mouse approaches the corners or limits of objects, then the symbols of rotation or shear appears. Its easy.

[ZVK]

Ohh, ok i didn't know that. Thank you very much Jobalou.

[Octiron]

Thank you Jobalou :)

Thank you for this tutorial. I applied the techniques from your video in this work. Any sugestions are welcome!

I don't see it on the roadmap, but will there be a shortcut key for Rotating ® that will also give you the option of placing your axis point (instead of just hovering over the corner to rotate in the center only)?

[MattP]

Hi puggerspaniel,

 

Yes there will be - I thought it was on the roadmap, but if not then rest assured that it is definitely on our list

 

Thanks,

Matt

Ronnie the same hing happens to me with the Amazon girl post....

Yah, I know why I can't seethe post because my chrome browser does not support the embed but if I view it in safari it shows up fine. This why I supply the link along with the embedded video in my posts.

[MattP]

Hmmm, that's very confusing! :S  I only use Safari (because I just can't be bothered to try anything else!) but it's a bit weird that this doesn't work based on what browser you're using?!?

I know I was surprised too. Let me check my settings. I might have some sort of security enabled on that browser.

I too have some Flash blocking extension on Safari... Maybe that's causing it...
