Thanks for this, it's so helpful. Would you be able to teach how to make a rainbow with spaces between as well? I would like to create patterns and do whimsical things in it.

@DiaGraphics 3 жыл бұрын

You could select the entire rainbow, the Open path finder and click "divide" then right click the shape and click ungroup. Now You can delete the bows You dont want :)

I can't delete the lower part after expanding arrangement and dividing objects below, what did I do wrong?

@DiaGraphics 6 жыл бұрын

You can try this: after you have drawn the line to spit the circle. If everything isnt still selected then try to reselect both the circles and the line again before clicking divide :)

Yeah that's right, I never noticed! Illustrator CC. My friend set it up because I'm not very tech savy. so I'm really looking forward to learn more from your channel! I'll see if I can import it myself and I'll let you know if I have any success. Thanks.

How would this change if I wanted a very thick and black border around each arc?

@DiaGraphics 6 жыл бұрын

+Neets S i would propably make a copy of the Rainbow and merge All the color so it is one object, then i would make i Black and then add the border to the object. Then finally just put the copied Rainbow below the first one. Hope this make sense :)

I found that in inDesign V.17.2.1 there is not Object --> Path --> Offset Path. Is there an alternative way to create the rainbow. Tutorial is wonderful and very understandable, just wish I had "offset path".

Are You indeed using indesign instead of illustrator then thats the problem? :D

it won't allow me to use the line segment tool and i am not sure why :(

Have You made sure the stroke is off When You draw the line across the circles? It Will not Work if You have selected a color for the stroke as we only use it to cut the circles :)

@@DiaGraphics indeed, but on Adobe Illustrator I get a notification that the file is an unknown format and therefore cannot be opened :( I am using MacBook. It's okay though, Maybe you have the individual color numbers?

@DiaGraphics 8 күн бұрын

sorry for late reply. It works when i try so i really don't know what's wrong. You can just pause the video and then use the eyedropper tool in illustrator to pick up the color from the video. Simply start holding down the mouse button inside illustrator and then move the eyedropper tool over the video while still holding down the mouse key :)

No matter what I do, I cannot offset path on the the circle if it doesn't have a fill color.. I can Offset the path of anything anything else, just not a circle. I have the stroke set to 50, and set to Align Stroke outside. :/

Try drawing a line across the circle like in the video. Then select All the circles and the line. Then go to pathfinder and select divide. This should Work too ☺️
