Tutorial: Create a Seamless Diagonal Pattern in Illustrator

Your review, sharing and suggestions are so important for me. Please leave a comment and ReTweet this article.

this tutorial teach us the easy way of creating diagonal patterns in illustrator which are one of the main graphical items in modern web 2.0 designed web sites.

Illustrator comes with some default pattern brushes, but no diagonal love. Diagonal patterns are a bit more tricky to make than a simple horizontal, or vertical pattern, but with some rock solid alignment, and some manual input into the Transform palette, you’ll be making diagonal patterns in no time.

Tip: Scale Objects in Adobe Illustrator Via Keyboard

Your review, sharing and suggestions are so important for me. Please leave a comment and ReTweet this article.

this abode illustrator tip is about an easy and fast way scaling objects in illustrator for whom loves using keyboard shortcuts.

I’m a big fan of resolution-independent vector art. I’m also a big fan of keyboard shortcuts. It’s been driving me a bit batty that there is no way in Adobe Illustrator to scale objects using just the keyboard. I use this method all the time within InDesign, and feel like I have handcuffs on when jumping back to Illustrator and wanting to do the same.
