      Hi All - 

      I work in Adobe's XD User Research and was wondering if anyone had a spare hour to test out a new workflow for Illustrator this weekend.  If you are able to, please email me at ttoy@adobe.com.  For your time, we will gladly thank you with some Adobe branded goodies!  

      Thanks,

    • I am not sure if I can help you or not - but I will try. I do have some spare time this weekend and I am curious to see what you are talking about.

    • I'll try your new workflow, please. I'am a new comer for adobe photoshop and illustrator.

    • Need a little help for some experts.

      I'm new to the Adobe products - great by the way.

      I have a document that I created in Indesign and I want to put it on a piece of promo I am making.

      My problem is that I want to make this graphic  look like its coming out of the page from perspective. A rectangle coming from the left (small) and getting bigger on the right.

      I got it to kind of do this using effects but the image has waves in it etc. I tried one of the tools that shoud do this (in Illustrator) - click a corner/ press ctrl+alt+shift - this allows me to drag to the shape I want BUT when I release the buttons the image snaps back to its original shape.

      If I use the same button but just use ctr shift to alter the image that works - no perspective.

      I was wondering how to do this. I assume its a simple task because the other effects do a similar thing and more (ad waves, bubble image etc.).

      Could one of you experts help, please.

      I also went on line and found some technique on Layers mag site. But that image produced jagged edges on the border of the perspective.

      The idea I have is to put something like a letter or an envelope on the page and have the image coming out and toward the viewer. I would think this is a pretty common concept.

      I really appreciate your help n advance.

      If you'd like you can email me at emorrell31@verizon.net

       

      Thanks guys and girls!
