I've been working as a Graphic designer for over 20 years but still like to keep doing tutorials. Illustrator is probably my weaker program although I still enjoy it. On this particular video I love the way that right up until the last steps that you keep the text editable. Knowing that the artwork can be saved and used at anytime is a massive time saver. Keep up the good work Dansky!
Also if you set your offset paths joins to Round you can fix this problem and have a editable text while avoiding that weird rounded courners shapes for some fonts
amazing, so easy to understand, so easy to do but the outcome is massively impressive, just want to show my appreciation of your work, thank you so much!
If you ad a stroke below 'Characters' a line will appear around the whole text included the effects. And the more copies you ad to the effect the more smoother it looks.
Hi! I tried to add a stroke below "Characters" but it doesn't outline the effects. The effects cover the stroke, so it is visibile only on the left of the letters (where there aren't the effects). I would like to add a stroke all around my design (letters+effects). How can I do? Many thanks!
Great tut. But you don't have to Outline your text at all. Just add a round corner effect. Appearance pallet > ƒx > Stylized > Round Corners... You can still Free Transform and the text is still fully editable. 👍
Cheers Johnlee. I find that this effect doesn't always work as well as using the Direct Selection Tool, that also enables control of each corner individual where necessary. Useful for mocking something up and keeping text editable for sure, but for anything final I would avoid it personally.
Thanks a lot, I like the style and how you taught. However, why can't I change the text, When I selected the text button, hit on the text, it would create new text for me.
Try double-clicking the text with the main Selection Tool, this shortcut should automatically switch you to the Type Tool, and the text becomes highlighted and ready to edit 👍
@@ForeverDansky Thanks for your response. For the new text, when I use the "main select" tool to click it, the text could be edited. But for the stylized text, it was not working. It seems go down to some deeper layer but not the text editing layer. I tried with your ai file from dropbox, it doesn't work either.
@@ForeverDansky it's fast and I like it. Watching tutorials and practising illlustor on weekly. I need jet speed learning. I practise Most of functions. So, I can pick on speedy learning. Thanks for asking my feedback
love it! any idea how i can use the first layer to substact it from the rest, so that the "face" gehts "transparent" ?? i want to put videos/Pictures into the letters, without converting it to a pixel Graphic.... o.O
Talking about texts can you create a small and quick tutorial on this "When we are working with texts some typefaces has extra space in bounding box which really gets annoying while aligning them" Is there any way to do that so the software aligns the text only without considering the bounding box. And yeah without converting text to outline.
what about the font size of the editable text ? my style doesn't follow the size, so i can edit my text, my style are manageable, but, the size font is fix with the effect, if i change the font size, everything is broken, this is so sad :(
If you go to "Preferences" in Illustrator you can change the UI colour from the "Interface" tab. On Windows you can find the preferences listed at the bottom of the "Edit" menu.
Its awesome but the speed at which you are doing it is so fast, Its hard for first learners to grasp those steps you are using. I request you go slowly by slowly and step by step along the process. Thank you.
Its my pleasure🙏. Actually i am your No.1 subscriber and i follow your tutorials so much and they have helped me alot to add on what i knew in Adobe illustrator

wow straight to the point, yet complete
If you add round corners to the appearance group you can keep it live text, however not all fonts play well with the rounded corners.
Also if you set your offset paths joins to Round you can fix this problem and have a editable text while avoiding that weird rounded courners shapes for some fonts
@@Josesorub Thank you! I've watched so many tutorials and your tip totally fixed the jagged edges for me.

@@ForeverDansky I thought I found the reason. The "creating outline" for the text make the type into a group, which can't be edited anymore 😂
Ur intro animation is superb..can u plz tell how u do it😊
You Rock Dan..... Thanks.
Cheers Anju 😎🙏
Thank you soo much! ❤
Amazing, thank you!
You’re welcome! 👊
Thank you!

well understood. Thank you you are the best teacher.
Thank you 😊
Thank you!

How is your workspace is too dark, Is there any way to make the UI more darker than the default one?
If you go to "Preferences" in Illustrator you can change the UI colour from the "Interface" tab. On Windows you can find the preferences listed at the bottom of the "Edit" menu.
my thing only saved the curvature rather than all the things i added to the appearance. why is that?
nice
Thanks!
danke mi man
how to choose color ?
Its awesome but the speed at which you are doing it is so fast, Its hard for first learners to grasp those steps you are using.
I request you go slowly by slowly and step by step along the process.
Thank you.
Gotcha! Thanks for the feedback Ivan 😊👍
Its my pleasure🙏.

You could make a basic template to start with every ti you start a new .
Hello sir, How are you. I am from Bangladesh. My name is biswazit das. What I really wanted to know was how to skin tone a portrait easily in Illustrator software. I can't figure it out somehow.
thank you
good
Can I make the same with Arabic words ?
SIR G
If you add smooth edges as first effect, the the whole text stays editable with round edges.
💌
