775 Applying a global edit from the control panel
- Hey gang, this is Deke McClelland, welcome to Deke's Techniques. Today I'm going to introduce you to what is probably my favorite new feature in Illustrator CC 2019, and that is Global Edit. So consider this document right here. It contains three art boards, this is art board one, this is two, and this is three. Notice that the various art boards share a couple of common objects, namely the Dreamstime logo, and the gradient background. Well, imagine if you could change the fill, or the stroke, or you could move the object, or you could scale it, or rotate it, and all of the objects, across all of the art boards would change. Now, some of you are thinking, well that sounds a lot like Symbols. Many of you aren't even going to need Symbols anymore, thanks to Global Edit. Here, let me show you exactly how it works. Alright now, before we start, I want you to notice a couple of things. First of all, we're working in the Essentials workspace, which is the default workspace when you first launch Illustrator CC 2019. And it prominently features this big Properties Panel over here, on the right hand side of the screen. It hides the more efficient horizontal Control Panel, along the top of the screen, and it reduces the number of tools over here in the vertical Tool Box. The second thing I want you to note, is that I'm working inside of a three art board document, that contains editable, vector based artwork, from the Dreamstime image library, about which, you can learn more and get some great deals at Dreamstime.com/deke.php. Alright, so at this point, let's say I want to review my art boards. As I showed you last week, the best way to accomplish this, inside the most recent version of Illustrator, is to go up to the View Menu and choose the Presentation Mode command, which is going to fill the screen with your artwork, at which point you can switch from one art board, to another just by clicking anywhere on screen. And as I move from one art board to the next, it occurs to me that this Dreamstime logo is too large and it's too close to the top of the page. In which case, I'll just go ahead and press the Escape Key in order to bring back the interface, and I'll click on that logo with the Black Arrow Tool, to select it. And now notice up here, the top of the Properties Panel, I can see that I've selected a Compound Path. Now, if I had to express the logo as a symbol instead, then I could edit the symbol definition and all the logos would change in kind but I didn't do that. So this is just a static path, which means that if I scale it, I'll scale it independently of the other logos. Unless that is, I drop down to this Start Global Edit button right here and I click on it. At which point, notice it now reads, Stop Global Edit. And what that tells me is that I'm going to modify all of the logos at the same time. Now I could change their sizes using the width and height values, up here in the Transform area of the Properties Panel, but the more precise way to work is to click and hold on the rotate tool, at least when you're working in the Essentials workspace, and choose the old school scale tool, which you can also get by pressing the S key. And now let's say, I want to scale with respect to this bottom anchor point, associated with the period, in which case, I'll just go ahead and Alt or Option + Click, on it in order to force a display of the Scale dialogue box. And notice, that I've already set this Uniform value to 80%. My Preview checkbox is turned on, so I can actually see the logo scale in the background. At which point, I'll click OK, in order to accept that modification. And now notice, if I press Shift + Page Up, in order to review the other two art boards, that their logos have scaled to 80% as well. And they scaled with respect to independent origin points, which means that every single logo remains at the same position on the page, which is not something you usually see when using the scale tool. Alright, now at this point, assuming I'm done, I can go ahead and click Stop Global Edit, but before I do, I want you to notice that we're seeing a bounding box around that logo, but as soon as I click Stop Global Edit, that bounding box disappears. Alright, now let's say things aren't going exactly the way you want them to, then you can click on this down pointing arrow right here, which offers some Match criteria. So you can match according to appearance and size, which is remarkable, and that is allowing Illustrator to find identical objects across one or more art boards. If you want to control exactly which art boards are affected, you can move down to this second section of the pop-up panel, and so notice here, I can select portrait art boards, landscape art boards, and square, which may prove very useful when designing for devices, or you can specify a range of art boards. And then notice this checkbox right here, Include Objects On Canvas. By canvas it means the paste board. And so notice, if I scroll upward by pressing Page Up Key, that I have and additional version of this logo, that scaled along with the others. If I don't want that to happen, I'll just press Control + Z, or Command + Z, a couple of times in order to return those logos to their original size. And then I would go ahead this down pointing arrow head, and turn that checkbox off. And notice that its rectangular bounding box disappears. And so now, I'll press the Escape key, to hide that panel and I'll press Control + Shift + Page Down, that's going to be Command + Shift + Page Down on the Mac, to advance to the final art board. And still armed with my scale tool, I will once again Alt, or Option + Click, on the bottom anchor point in that period, I'm still seeing a Uniform value of 80%. At which point, I'll click OK. And now if I go to that first art board, by pressing Control + Shift + Page Up, that's going to be Command + Shift + Page Up on the Mac, and then Page Up to that logo on the paste board, you can see that this time, it did not scale. Alright, in having finished I'll go ahead and click Stop Global Edit. And that is how you apply Global Edits here inside Illustrator CC 2019, and I'm guessing later. Alright now, if you're a member of LinkedIn Learning, I have a follow up movie, in which I show you how to apply Global Edit, from the much more efficient horizontal Control Panel as opposed to the screen gobbling Properties Panel. If you're looking forward to next week, I'm going to show you yet another great new feature inside Illustrator CC 2019, and it goes by the name Freeform Gradients. Deke's Techniques, each and every week. Keep watching.
