Introduction: Andrew's Vector Plugins Volume 5 'Zigzag': The plugin set includes the plugin 'Zigzag tool' for Adobe Illustrator 60 powerful zigzag designs 100s of great zigzag features to create stunning unique dramatic illustrations in Illustrator Combine two sets of designs to create 1000s of different zigzag designs Interactive design of zigzags Use to create borders / patterns / frame elements / T-shirts / shorts / packaging Create randomized zigzags Indian themed zigzags Alternating zigzags Abstract zigzag designs Alien zigzag designs Patterns Extreme zigzags Square zigzags Triangular zigzags Overlapped zigzags Pulsed zigzags Thin line zigzags Multi-repeat zigzags Hi-freq zigzags Subtle zigzags and more Packed with 100s of great features to create wow zigzag designs such as scaling / color fills and more The plugin appears in the toolbox (and not the filter menu) - it appears in the lower half of the toolbox with a 'zigzag' icon. To use the plugin, select and drag across document to design the zigzag Two lists are displayed on the main zigzag toolbox dialog. Select either the same zigzag or select different zigzag types (two). The created zigzag will be made up of zigzag design 1 followed by design 2 followed by design 1 alternating up to the number of groupings of 'zigzag' elements selected The plugin comes with a huge range of random elements, one of the easiest to use is the randomization of the zigzag type, creating a totally weird randomized zigzag design (millions of possible designs are possible), these are great for border designs and more The zigzags can be used as a basic path but they can always be converted into 3D designs or a scribble or blurred by simply applying a graphic style to the zigzag design. Use the zigzags as a source for brushes. Simply generate the zigzag and drag into the brush palette and set to artistic and apply as a brush stroke as required The zigzag plugin also comes with an inbuilt randomization of envelopes, so even using the basic design, the zigzag can be further extended into millions of variant warped and wonderful zigzag designs. The envelope needs to be expanded up upon exit or you can further manipulate the warping The zigzag can be a single continious design or it can be broken into single separate paths that can be individually colored and re-designs The plugin can be created as a single zigzag path created within the space of your mouse drag but by selecting the repeats option and modifying the mirror and spacing and other options, the paths can take the form of a background design or motion blurs and more Double click the toolbox icon to display the options for the zigzag tool or press return, spread over multiple dialogs with the first couple of dialogs with the basic zigzag options for ease of use Use the zigzag plugin to create alien zigzag design, totally way out randomized zigzag design, great for superb backgrounds and more
