Working With Paths
Duplicating Paths
http://www.image2output.com
Splitting Complex Paths
If a path is very complex and main memory is insufficient, the SEPARATE
function does not cut the path at intersection points (effect 1). In this case
it only creates new paths for non-overlapping elements (effects 2 and 3).
If this occurs, you should activate some of the new (and now less complex)
paths and reselect SEPARATE to cut these paths at their intersection
points.
Duplicating Paths
1. Activate the path(s) you want to duplicate (see page 8-1).
2. Select PATHS | EDIT | DUPLICATE MULTIPLE, or press +OPTION+D
(Mac OS) or CTRL+ALT+D (Windows).
A duplicate of the path appears at the cursor position and can be
moved with the mouse.
3. Click on the layout to position the duplicate or enter the coordinate
(direct input, see page 29-7).
4. Enter the number of paths to be created. Do one of the following:
• Click the (left) mouse button, then move the mouse vertically.
The value corresponding to the cursor position appears on the
status bar. Click again when the value you want is reached.
• Enter the number directly on the keyboard.
Example: 2 produces the original path and one duplicate, 3 produces
two duplicates etc. No duplicate is produced if you enter 0 or 1.
Corrections
You can correct the parameters specified when paths are duplicated or
when grids are framed or split into rectangles. However, this is only possible
if the respective function is still active.
To do so, SHIFT-CTRL-click (Mac OS) or SHIFT-right-click (Windows) to
select the previous parameter, (left-)click to select the next. The current
parameter is indicated in boldface type in the STATUS window.
Then enter the new value on the keyboard (direct input, see page 29-7).
Alternatively, do the following:
1. SHIFT-click on the layout.
2. Move the mouse. The value corresponding to the cursor position is
indicated on the window’s status bar.
3. Click again when the value you want is reached. The next value is selected
automatically.
