Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 583 Creating custom line caps in Illustrator, part of Deke's Techniques.
- [Instructor] In this movie, I'll show you…how to create a trio of custom line caps as arrowheads…inside Illustrator.…And this one's a little trickier,…because it requires us…to figure out some very specific mechanics.…Now, the first step is to find this Arrowheads.ai file.…If you're using Windows,…you want this folder path right here.…And if you're using the Mac, you want this one,…bearing in mind that things may be different,…depending on your version of the software.…And this final subfolder, en_US, may be different…if you're using a localized version of Illustrator.…
All right, so I'll go ahead and switch over…to my customized version of the Arrowheads.ai file.…And then you want to go up to the View menu…and make sure your Smart Guides are turned on,…after which point I'll go ahead…and marquee my Custom 1 arrowhead along with its label.…And I'll drag it to the right while pressing the Shift key…until I see it align with the second column,…after which point I'll press and hold the Alt key,…or the Option key on a Mac, and release.…
