Discover the Illustrator interface.
- [Instructor] I don't know about you,…but when I visit somewhere new,…I like to have a little bit of a wander around…and kind of get the lay of the land,…and that's what we're going to do in this movie.…And even if you've visited previous versions…of Illustrator before, this is a good idea…to actually watch this movie,…because things have changed a little bit.…So let us have a look by starting with a new blank document.…So I'm just here in the Start workspace,…and I'm going to move over to the left…and tap on Create New.…
And in the New Document dialog,…I do have a recent document here,…but I'm going to go to my Art & Illustration profile,…although you can choose any of these, really.…I'd just avoid Film & Video just for the moment,…and choose maybe this 1920 by 1080 artboard here.…Lots of options for document creation now.…I'm going to hit Create, and so a new document is created,…and this is the bit where it will start to look…a little bit different, because there's much less interface…hanging around in Illustrator now.…
