individual points of any object.
Direct Selection Tool
lets you select objects, anchor
points, or path segments by dragging along all or parts of the object.
Lasso Tool
creates a selection based on the shift in brightness ranges within an image. If there is a definable shift in the brightness of the pixels, it can be a very powerful tool for the selection of odd-shaped areas.
Magic Wand Tool
a path creator. You can create
smooth path that you can store with a brush or turn to selection. This tool is effective for designing,
selecting smooth surfaces, or layout.
Pen Tool
simplifies path creation and
makes drawing easy and intuitive. This tool enables

corner points.
Curvature Tool
allows you to draw straight paths with
a few mouse clicks. You can also select it by
pressing the \ key.
Line Segment Tool
inarguably one of the most important tools within Adobe Illustrator. With it, you
can type out lines of horizontal text or align text to follow a vector path, to name just a few functions.
Type Tool
one of the tools found in the
tools palette. It works in a similar way to the pencil tool, in that you click and drag the path. You can even apply the brush stroke to a pre-determined path.
Paintbrush Tool
lets you create rectangular and
square shapes in your artwork. Click the Rectangle tool or press M to select it. Drag on the artboard to draw a rectangle.
Rectangular Tool
essentially a brush. You can
change the size, hardness and spacing, just like any other brush. It’s also possible for you to change the mode from Brush to Pencil or Block. Instead of painting on the pixels of your image, however, the
Eraser deletes the unwanted pixels.
Eraser Tool
is used for drawing free path lines,
just as if you are using an actual pencil to draw on the paper. It offers you the freedom to draw whatever you want digitally but still keeps a little bit
of realistic taste.
Pencil Tool
allows you to easily resize in Illustrator. lets you enlarge or reduce objects and shapes.
Scale Tool
To rotate the object around its center point, drag in a circular motion anywhere in the document window.
Rotate Tool
allows you to rotate, scale (resize), reflect (mirror image), shear (slant), or distort an object.
Free Transform Tool
lets you create variable-width strokes,
and create stroke profiles so you can apply styles consistently. press Shift + W
to select it.
Width Tool
you can click and adjust any handle in the grid as you like.
Perspective Grid Tool
which was added in Illustrator CS5, allows you to combine multiple shapes in various.
Shape Builder Tool
The tool is used to adjust the appearance
of the gradient. In this example, a spherical bubble will be created.
Gradient Tool
multiple lines called crisscross the object and provide a way to easily manipulate color transitions on the object.you
can change the intensity of a color shift, or change
the extent of a colored area on the object.
Mesh Tool
lets you combine shapes and colors
between two or more objects to create a new object.
Blend Tool
lets you pick a color from an object or an image and apply it to other objects.
Eyedropper Tool
(keyboard shortcut “j”) in the
Toolbar. You can click and hold on the tool to reveal all the graph styles and tear off the tool palette to make it a floating toolbar.

Hand Tool
will combine all the selected objects
into a single larger shape. The second Shape Mode is Minus Front, and it allows you to use any top object to create a cutout from the one underneath.
Unite
The frontmost object has all the objects behind it removed. This option is used for deleting areas of an illustration by making adjustments to the stacking order. Subtrating Shapes
Minus Front
Create a new shape by revealing the overlapped area and removing the top and bottom shape layers.
Intersect
Non-overlapping areas of objects can be traced, and it also makes all the overlapping areas transparent and liminates the overlapping area and leaves behind the remaining polygons to create a complex shape.
Excluded
You can use this option to separate component-filled faces from a piece of artwork. (Shape along the intersection line)
Divide
You can remove part of a hidden filled object. All strokes that do not merge with the selected objects of the same color are removed.
Trim
This tool is used to remove parts of hidden filled objects. It can also remove strokes from overlapping or adjoining objects that have been filled using the same color.
