in front of or behind the object’s fill, and the order of strokes can be
changed to modify the appearance of the object.
Modifying Objects with the Appearance Panel
Fill and Stroke aributes are listed as separate entries and can be manipulated individually.
To change the weight of a stroke, select the Stroke hyperlink in the list to open the Stroke
panel.
The Appearance panel can display common attributes for a mixed
selection. This means only non-matching attributes will display as
“Mixed” in the panel. If you have three objects with different fills or
strokes and they all have the Drop Shadow effect applied it is now
possible to edit the Drop Shadow for them all. To make this more
powerful Adobe has added a new option under the Select menu:
Select > Same > Appearance Attribute. For example, if you want to edit
the settings for all the objects with Gaussian Blur in a file, select an
object with Gaussian Blur applied, show the Appearance Panel,
highlight the Gaussian Blur attribute, and choose Select > Same >
Appearance Attribute. All the objects in the file with that attribute will
be selected and you can then edit or delete that effect for all the
selected objects simultaneously.
Using the Attributes Panel
To control the overprinting attributes for the fills and strokes of objects,
use the Attributes panel (Window > Attributes). Overprinting objects
won’t be obvious in the normal display mode in Illustrator. For this
reason, you should check Illustrator files by temporarily displaying them
with Overprint Preview turned on (View > Overprint Preview). Because
Overprint Preview can slightly slow performance, you may want to turn
it off after you have determined if there are any problems with the file.
Aributes Panel
e white telephone artwork has been set to overprint (le). is results in incorrect output
(center). Deselect the Overprint Fill option in the Aributes panel (right) to correct this.
The Attributes panel also offers options for displaying and hiding the
center point of selected objects, reversing the direction of selected
paths (helpful for arrowheads on the wrong end of a path), and the
choice of Even/Odd fill and non-zero winding rule behavior.
Path Aributes
To govern the behavior in areas where a path overlaps itself, the Aributes panel gives you
the choice of Non-Zero Winding Fill rule (le) or Even-Odd Fill rule (right). If you don’t see
these options, choose Show All from the panel menu.
