Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video Setting the Column Type to Repeating, part of Illustrator CC 2017 One-on-One Mastery.
- [Instructor] In this movie, I'll show you…how to repeat the graph design…so that they're not stretched…or scaled in any way.…And I'll also show you how to apply different designs…to different columns so that everything…doesn't look like a Facebook logo.…All right, so for starters here.…I'll go ahead and click…on the graph with the black arrow tool…to select the entire thing,…and then I'll right click…inside the document window and choose column…in order to revisit that graph-column dialogue box.…And I'll switch back to the Facebook logo…and I'll change the column type…this time around to repeating, at which point,…Illustrator wants to know how many units…each design represents.…
So let's say I enter five,…meaning that each icon is 5% high.…Also notice that the for fractions option here…is set to scale-design by default,…after which point, I'll click okay to accept that change,…and then I'll press control-H, or command-H on a Mac…in order to hide the selection edges,…and I want you to see, there's a fraction right there,…
