Are there in this video or this story, I'm going to show you how to use the rotate tool the very hard
way and the really easy way where you are going to adopt, of course, the easy way.
Now, before I start playing with the rotation tool, I would like to create a circle, just a perfect
circle like this, then select the white arrow and select the guy here and delete y because I want the
perfect quarter circle.
This is the easiest way I find how to make a quarter circle.
So now I have my circle and I would like to have four pieces of it with arrows.
It is a recycled something like this as the arrows, so let's go over here, we add an arrow and of
course we maybe make it 50 percent, something like this that we did before I start working, I will
need some guides and I want to pick them up from the rulers to bring up the rulers you can come to view.
And over here you have rulers and you say show rulers.
The shortcut to toggle on and off the rulers is control or command are.
Now, to add a guide, you just click on the ruler and pull it down.
So now this is my guide I'm going to try to put just over here.
Now I'm going to select my ship again and zoom in to see my God is perfect.
Can I take another guide just on this point here?
I'm going to use this this corner here.
I'm going to use it as the center of the rotation.
Now, my guys are enabled and I can edit them.
I don't want that.
So I come to view and go to guides.
Over here and I say lock gates.
They don't move around with me.
I want to make four of these rotating on the center.
Let's start using the rotation to shortcut is our.
And the first thing is telling you, please select the center of the rotation.
This cross-hair is the center of the location.
Can I come in the middle intersection very nicely?
Make sure I'm here and click now after I said the center of the rotation, I can start rotating the
ship if I press option and rotate not.
This is going to, of course, duplicate because I'm pressing option.
And then I'm going to just pause to just over here, pretty good.
Now, again, is asking me the center of the rotation, so I'm going to have to play it again.
And then come back, I rotate this guy pressing option to have two of their.
I guess this center of rotation, please.
I'm going to click and press option and do the four of them.
That's very nice work, guys.
There is an easier way.
Come on, we had to place the center three times or four times.
Let's come over here and pull it again and let's come with this Shapir.
And duplicate the shape and snap on our guides, I think it's well snapped.
Now I'm going to go to the too, but I'm not going to set the center only I'm going to press the option
and click to set the center.
This is much better.
It has opened the rotate Palin and tell me what angle I'm rotating, not as my previous angle was not
90 degrees.
It was a bit off with zero point four six.
So I'm going to set it at 90 degrees.
Exactly.
If I click, OK, it's going to just rotate the ship, but in fact the copy is going to create a duplicate
and rotate.
Very easy.
Now, we learned from the foot steps that we can use the repeat for the transfer, which is transforming
gain control from over here.
Make sure you selecting the right shape and press control and control the.
And it's done much nicer.
Now we can select all of them.
And come to stroke and give them a uniform, a profile of profiles of.
Can give them different profiles, maybe this one.
OK, I like this one very much.
I have my recycle, remember to call them not, I take this too, but the MASSATA.
Now, let's do something more amusing.
I'm going to take this guy here.
And just rotated a bit to fix it the way I like fixing it.
I'm going to use the rotation tool.
And just point somewhere just over here.
And then go ahead and move it just like this.
I want justice, peace now, I want to duplicate this transformation, which is a rotation I'm going
to use today all the way.
And many too many, yes, and zero, so I have a very nice sphynx or something nice if you don't like
it, your only option is to do everything you can to start moving them.
That was our sphynx, so you have a very nice sphynx here, maybe not with the last one.
Take this guy and put it aside.
Now, let's take this here and let's play.
Now it's time to start creating.
So now I'm going to go to the rotation, to our rotation tool.
I'm going to set the angle just over here.
I'm going to zoom in.
Here and set the rotation anglia's over here on the anchor itself, I'm got press option and click.
So now I have an angle of twelve point seventy five if I want to read it all over.
That is from zero to 360 degree.
You know, a full I need to have the angle here that can divide three.
Sixty one of the angles is 20 degrees.
Right.
You have ten degrees.
So 360 divided by ten, it's equals 36 a full number.
If it becomes a fraction then you have problems here.
So you can do, for example, 15.
I'm going to create a copy and zoom in.
I don't like it, I will repeat it, our best option and this guy here and I'm going to go for 10 degrees
and say, I like that, I'm going to go Clotilda all the way, that's going to embarrass me.
You notice when you choose a number that can divide 360 without having fractures, then you're quite
OK to have a full 360.
Now, this is a very nice shape.
I can select them all like this.
Come to look, I'm sure you already noticed one that I'm going to give them a profile.
That's one profile.
That's another profile.
Wow, this is nice.
And maybe you settle for this one.
But you can play with it the way you would like.
You know, that's why I put the ships here, the scum over here.
I will do one more shape with you, which is this one, just because I like it, but I'm sure you got
the system, you got how to work with it.
I will select the rotation tool R and click on the anchor point here with the option key.
I'm going to take it six degrees because I know 360 divided by six.
Gives you something.
I'm going to control this now all the way, and I have a very nice one, of course, fused minus six,
you're going to have something different.
Oh my gosh.
It will be the same.
Now, this is very beautiful.
Remember, guys, you can select it, come to the colors here and go to the library, which is the great
library here, and use, for example, foliage of fruits and vegetables.
So you have these bridges that you can apply all the way to give you some other repetition.
Now, I know that you are a master of the rotation tool and replicating or transforming, again, the
rotation tool.
I would like you to play with these two shapes and create your own shapes and make something awesome,
you know, something like people will look at and say, wow, is that a beginner or a pro?
Thank you, guys.
I will see you in the next video with some more transforms.
