I've done a few tutorials so far...love 'em.
I'm having trouble figuring out what I'm doing wrong on the "sticky note tab" one though.
I get to this part:
"Click on, and hold your mouse down on the Path tool in the tools palette (also known as the Pen tool). From the secondary tool menu that slides out, choose the solid pointer icon (this is a general selection tool). With this tool, click once anywhere on the path, then once on the bottom left corner node on the path; that selects, or activates just that node. Press your right arrow key 17 times; this moves that node over 17 pixels. Then press your up arrow key 9 times."
The underlined part is where I sink. When I click the bottom left corner node it doesn't seem to select just that node. When I start moving the thing to the right, the whole box moves.
My internet is going very slow right now so I can't verify this because I got to go to bed, but...
At this point you already have a path set up, correct? The path looks like a connect the dots, with lines in between little squares (nodes). What you need to do, click anywhere along the line that is the path. this should, I belive, create a new node. Then, click on the node/square that is already on the bottom left of the path. This makes that node active.
Hope this solves your problem.
I'm not great with the path tool, so I am not sure if this is correct, so if I'm wrong then someone step in and set me straight.
The one thing to remember with the nodes (those little squares) is that they are 'inactive' when they are hollow and 'active' when they are solid. If the squares are all solid, the whole path will move. If just one square is solid, only that node will move.
I am trying to make a (free/no ad) website for the teachers in my district---to share lesson plans, book reviews, chat, encourage one another, etc. etc.
(Well, it would be for any teacher, anywhere actually.)
I'm having so much *fun* making the graphics that I'm not getting any content on there.... ;\ This is what I look like about 2 a.m. each night.... 8} The tutorials on here are t-e-r-r-i-f-i-c! As are the people, of course!
