In this movie I'll show you how to finish off the…design for the corner tile by drawing this precisely aligned angled loop.…I'll go ahead and switch over to my document in progress here, and I…might zoom in as well, just so I can even better see what I'm doing.…And I'll press the A key to switch to the wide-arrow tool.…And I want to give myself a little distance between these points here.…So I'll select the top point, and this this time…I'll press Ctrl+K or Cmd+K on the Mac to bring up…the preferences dialogue box.…And I'll change the keyboard increment to one.…And then I'll click OK.…
And now I'll press the Up arrow key to nudge that anchor point one point upward.…And then I'll select this guy and press the Left…arrow key to nudge it one point to the left.…All right now I need to figure out the exact distance between these tow points.…And you'd figure what you might do is grab the…Rectangle tool, just as we did in the previous movie.…And with your smart guides on, go ahead…and drag from one anchor point to the other.…
