Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 675 Skewing your crazy café walls in Illustrator, part of Deke's Techniques.
- [Instructor] In this movie,…we're going to take that cafe wall effect…in which these horizontal lines don't necessarily appear…to be altogether parallel to each other,…and we're going to actually slant those lines,…and even though they still remain parallel to each other,…they look more catawumpus than ever.…And we're going to do so with the help of a tile pattern.…And so the first thing I'm going to do…is select everything inside this artwork…by going into the Select menu…and choosing the All command.…Or of course you could just press Control + A…or Command + A on the Mac.…
And then we'll go up to the Objects menu,…choose Pattern,…and choose Make…in order to switch over to the pattern editing mode.…Now, if you get this alert message…that tells you that a new swatch has been added…to the swatches panel,…all you have to do is click OK.…All right, now what we need to do is zoom out a little bit…so we can better see what's going on.…And notice,…as evidenced by the fact that we're seeing…three by three copies.…And I'm just going to go ahead…
