Using the tools

The ﬁrst time you start Illustrator, the toolbox appears on the left side of the screen.

The tools in the toolbox let you create, select, and manipulate objects in Illustrator.

When you select most tools, the mouse pointer matches the tool’s icon. For example,

choosing the paintbrush tool changes the pointer to a paintbrush.You can also change a

tool pointer to a precision pointer, such as a cross hair , for greater precision when

aligning or working with detailed artwork.

To move the toolbox:

Drag the toolbox by the top bar.

To show or hide the toolbox:

To show or hide the toolbox, choose Window > Tools.When the toolbox is showing,

a check mark appears before the name.

To display hidden tools on-screen:

Press a tool in the toolbox that has hidden tools underneath it. (Tools that have hidden

tools are identiﬁed by a triangle in the lower right corner.)

When the toolbar of hidden tools appears, hold down the mouse button and drag to

the arrow at the end of the toolbar.The toolbar detaches from the toolbox.

To close a detached toolbar:

Click the close box.

To change the pointer to a precision pointer:

Do one of the following:

•

While the tool is selected, press Caps Lock on the keyboard.

•

Choose Edit > Preferences > General (Windows and Mac OS 9) or Illustrator >

Preferences > General (Mac OS X), select Use Precise Cursors, and click OK.

work. By default, these palettes appear stacked together in several groups.You can also

dock palettes so that you can move them together.

currently open.

•

Press Tab to hide or show all palettes and the toolbox.

•

Changing the palette display

You can rearrange your palettes to make better use of your work area by using the

following techniques:

•

To make a palette appear at the front of its group, click the palette’s tab.

•

To move an entire palette group, drag its title bar.

•

To rearrange or separate a palette group, drag a palette’s tab. Dragging a palette

outside of an existing group creates a new palette window.

•

To move a palette to another group, drag the palette’s tab to that group.

•

To dock palettes so that you can move them together,drag a palette’s tab to the bottom

of another palette.

•

To move an entire docked palette group, drag its title bar.

•

To display a palette menu, position the pointer on the triangle in the upper right

corner of the palette and hold down the mouse button.

•

To change the size of a resizable palette, drag the lower right corner of the palette

(Windows) or drag the size box at the lower right corner of the palette (Mac OS).

Note:

A few palettes, such as the Color palette, cannot be resized by dragging.

•

To collapse a group to the palette titles only, click the minimize/maximize box

(Windows) or click the zoom box (Mac OS).You can still open the palette menu from a

collapsed palette.

•

To cycle through the available sizes for a palette—the default size, size with hidden

options showing, size as resized by dragging, and palette titles only—double-click the

palette’s tab.

For maximum performance, hide all palettes except those that are necessary for your

work.
