So, then you have to stop and move over to the next text that fits on your screen and then continue to kern that text until the cursor moves of the screen again, doing that over and over again is unproductive. That’s problematic since you have to see the words to kern them. Now when you are kerning using the arrow keys the screen no longer moves along with the cursor, when you reach the end of the text that is visible on your screen (with kerning you have to be up close and personal with the text) instead of the screen staying with the cursor, the cursor now just goes off the screen and continues to move down the text. Which is still the case with InDesign, it works beautifully. In the not-so-distant pass, when kerning in AI using the arrow keys, the screen would move along with the cursor as you went through the copy so you didn’t have to stop kerning to reposition the cursor, it followed along and even returned to the next sentence in the text. This is no longer possible in 2018, as described above. Here is a video of marquee selecting text in 2017.
This could be the default functionality without causing any grief (probably).Īllow an option in the Type Preferences that allowed the user to set this back to how it functioned in 2017. others wanted to create text boxes easier with a single click out of scope). This should alleviate my issue, while also solving the presumed problem others were having which initiated this 2018 feature change in the first place (i.e. This could be solved in a few different ways.ĭon't exit scope of a text box unless the mouse-input has both clicked-down and click-released outside the scope of the text box without having selected anything while the click was down. It results in alot of redundant re-selection and very careful precision to avoid further de-selection. This is problematic for me when I am working with text and want to highlight portions of text but need to start the marquee selection outside of the text and drag it in. Now in 2018, any time I am working in a text box and click-down outside the scope of the textbox, it immediately exits the text box and creates a new one. In 2017 CC Illustrator (and 2016 I believe), I could marquee select text on a text box in scope to edit text. So, if you take the joined file, I'd like to be able to skip step 2 ! (may be a modifier key ?)ītw, i loved playing with the xants font (bauhaus/typekit/hiddentreasure) I'd appreciate if Illustrator would compensate by not moving the remaining characters (and automating the next characters kerning). Sometimes I'm ok with moving every character one after the other, but sometimes, I'd like to move only ONE character and leave the rest in place. I change the character after (negative kerning) I change the H character (scale/rotation)ģ. I justified my type between the 2 green margins.Ģ. So I usually have to reverse-compensate by making negative kerning on the next character.ġ. I like to be able to move 1 character at a time, rotate, move, scale.īut I'm a bit annoyed because SOMETIMES, I'd love it to NOT change the text after. OK, I'm having this "workflow" issue with the Touch Type Tool.
