    How to evenly space lines (around a circle)

    Anymore ideas? I've tried rotating it by angle (Press 'R' and 'alt') but again, as soon as I change the thickness of a line, the spacing doesn't work :( Sorry for driving you guys crazy! It seems such a simple thing for Illustrator to do!

    How to evenly space lines (around a circle)

    I worked out the rotatio angle but due to variying line thicknesses, the same angle won't work for each piece. The spacing wont be the same.

    Levi, Yes It is architectural Visualisation - I'm studying Architecture. The brief does not require any sort of sketch, we can present how we want but I think that because my site it 'natural' and the project is about sustainability etc. that the more 'free' sketch style presentation will work...

    Landscape Plan in Illustrator

    Ok, Well the site I'm creating a landscape plan for is around 60% grassland, so I want to use the same effect on the first image to represent grass (rather than a solid colour). The next biggest element of the site is trees, around 20% in various sizes, so I want to re-create the trees as shown...

    AI Layers are not placing in Id correctly?

    Hi, I want to place PDF into new layers in an InDesign document. All the layers are the same data (map) but they are not scaled...

    A3 Leather Portfolio case?

    This one isn't too bad The Art Discount Cezanne Presentation Portfolio The one thing i need to look out for it the wallet properties. I don't want any kind of reflection/shininess on them as it makes the page harder to read. I may still go to staples, though I bet they will be overpriced.
