1
00:00:00.00 --> 00:00:00.08
- [Instructor] In this
movie, I'll show you

2
00:00:00.08 --> 00:00:03.02
how to repeat the graph design

3
00:00:03.02 --> 00:00:05.04
so that they're not stretched

4
00:00:05.04 --> 00:00:07.01
or scaled in any way.

5
00:00:07.01 --> 00:00:09.01
And I'll also show you how
to apply different designs

6
00:00:09.01 --> 00:00:11.06
to different columns so that everything

7
00:00:11.06 --> 00:00:14.00
doesn't look like a Facebook logo.

8
00:00:14.00 --> 00:00:15.04
All right, so for starters here.

9
00:00:15.04 --> 00:00:16.06
I'll go ahead and click

10
00:00:16.06 --> 00:00:18.03
on the graph with the black arrow tool

11
00:00:18.03 --> 00:00:19.08
to select the entire thing,

12
00:00:19.08 --> 00:00:20.08
and then I'll right click

13
00:00:20.08 --> 00:00:23.08
inside the document
window and choose column

14
00:00:23.08 --> 00:00:26.06
in order to revisit that
graph-column dialogue box.

15
00:00:26.06 --> 00:00:29.05
And I'll switch back to the Facebook logo

16
00:00:29.05 --> 00:00:31.00
and I'll change the column type

17
00:00:31.00 --> 00:00:34.00
this time around to
repeating, at which point,

18
00:00:34.00 --> 00:00:37.00
Illustrator wants to know how many units

19
00:00:37.00 --> 00:00:39.03
each design represents.

20
00:00:39.03 --> 00:00:41.03
So let's say I enter five,

21
00:00:41.03 --> 00:00:44.09
meaning that each icon is 5% high.

22
00:00:44.09 --> 00:00:47.02
Also notice that the for
fractions option here

23
00:00:47.02 --> 00:00:49.07
is set to scale-design by default,

24
00:00:49.07 --> 00:00:53.01
after which point, I'll click
okay to accept that change,

25
00:00:53.01 --> 00:00:56.03
and then I'll press control-H,
or command-H on a Mac

26
00:00:56.03 --> 00:00:58.06
in order to hide the selection edges,

27
00:00:58.06 --> 00:01:01.06
and I want you to see, there's
a fraction right there,

28
00:01:01.06 --> 00:01:03.02
and it's getting scaled.

29
00:01:03.02 --> 00:01:05.06
Otherwise, we're seeing two Fs

30
00:01:05.06 --> 00:01:10.00
per each and every horizontal graph line.

31
00:01:10.00 --> 00:01:12.03
And that's because the increment
from one line to the next

32
00:01:12.03 --> 00:01:17.08
is 10% and each icon is just 5% tall.

33
00:01:17.08 --> 00:01:19.08
All right, I'll go ahead and
zoom out a little bit here.

34
00:01:19.08 --> 00:01:22.08
Now the thing is, I don't
want to scale any of the Fs

35
00:01:22.08 --> 00:01:25.06
so I'm going to right click
again and choose column,

36
00:01:25.06 --> 00:01:29.07
and I'm going to change for
fractions to chop design,

37
00:01:29.07 --> 00:01:30.08
and click okay.

38
00:01:30.08 --> 00:01:32.00
And that's going to go ahead and just

39
00:01:32.00 --> 00:01:34.06
cut off the designs like so.

40
00:01:34.06 --> 00:01:35.09
All right, now we want to be able to

41
00:01:35.09 --> 00:01:39.00
vary the design from
one column to the next.

42
00:01:39.00 --> 00:01:40.05
So I need to press control-H,
or command-H on a Mac,

43
00:01:40.05 --> 00:01:44.03
to bring back my edges,
and I'll press the A key

44
00:01:44.03 --> 00:01:46.08
to switch to the white arrow tool.

45
00:01:46.08 --> 00:01:48.09
I'll click off the graph to deselect it,

46
00:01:48.09 --> 00:01:52.09
and then I'll go up here to
the blue portion of the F

47
00:01:52.09 --> 00:01:57.02
and I'll alt- or option-click
on it a total of three times

48
00:01:57.02 --> 00:02:00.06
in order to select all
of the Instagram columns.

49
00:02:00.06 --> 00:02:03.00
Now make sure you don't alt-
or option-click too many times

50
00:02:03.00 --> 00:02:05.08
because then you'll
select the entire graph.

51
00:02:05.08 --> 00:02:08.06
So what we want to do is alt-
or option-click a total of

52
00:02:08.06 --> 00:02:12.09
three times in the blue
area of that Facebook icon.

53
00:02:12.09 --> 00:02:15.05
And then, because only part
of the graph is selected,

54
00:02:15.05 --> 00:02:18.04
you'll have to go to the
object menu, choose graph,

55
00:02:18.04 --> 00:02:21.02
and choose column, in order to bring back

56
00:02:21.02 --> 00:02:22.06
the graph-column dialogue box,

57
00:02:22.06 --> 00:02:24.09
and then just select the
Instagram design, that's it.

58
00:02:24.09 --> 00:02:28.00
Now you can click okay,
and that will go ahead and

59
00:02:28.00 --> 00:02:33.00
apply the Instagram icons
to the second columns.

60
00:02:33.00 --> 00:02:34.06
Now notice that Illustrator's gone ahead

61
00:02:34.06 --> 00:02:36.07
and selected the entire graph,

62
00:02:36.07 --> 00:02:39.08
and so to select the third
columns, the ones for LinkedIn,

63
00:02:39.08 --> 00:02:42.01
you'll need to click off
the graph to deselect it,

64
00:02:42.01 --> 00:02:44.09
and then alt- or option-click three times

65
00:02:44.09 --> 00:02:48.01
inside that Facebook logo
that we want to replace,

66
00:02:48.01 --> 00:02:52.04
then return to the object menu,
choose graph, choose column,

67
00:02:52.04 --> 00:02:56.03
and then select LinkedIn and click okay.

68
00:02:56.03 --> 00:02:58.07
All right, now click off
the graph to deselect it,

69
00:02:58.07 --> 00:03:01.09
alt- or option-click
three times inside the F

70
00:03:01.09 --> 00:03:04.05
for Pinterest up here in the legend,

71
00:03:04.05 --> 00:03:06.03
return to the object menu,

72
00:03:06.03 --> 00:03:09.05
choose graph and then choose column,

73
00:03:09.05 --> 00:03:11.08
and this time we want to select Pinterest.

74
00:03:11.08 --> 00:03:14.05
By the way, everybody's
listed in alphabetical order.

75
00:03:14.05 --> 00:03:17.01
So it should be pretty
easy to follow along.

76
00:03:17.01 --> 00:03:19.08
And then finally, you'll
want to click off the graph

77
00:03:19.08 --> 00:03:22.01
and alt- or option-click three times

78
00:03:22.01 --> 00:03:25.01
inside the F for Twitter,

79
00:03:25.01 --> 00:03:29.07
and then go up to object,
choose graph, and choose column,

80
00:03:29.07 --> 00:03:31.07
and let's go ahead and
change this guy to Twitter

81
00:03:31.07 --> 00:03:33.09
and click okay, and that is it.

82
00:03:33.09 --> 00:03:36.01
I'll go ahead and click off
the graph to deselect it,

83
00:03:36.01 --> 00:03:39.00
and then I'll press control-zero,
or command-zero on a Mac,

84
00:03:39.00 --> 00:03:40.04
to center my zoom.

85
00:03:40.04 --> 00:03:43.03
And that is how you avoid
scaling your graph design

86
00:03:43.03 --> 00:03:46.05
by repeating and cropping it,

87
00:03:46.05 --> 00:03:49.06
as well as how you apply
different graph designs to

88
00:03:49.06 --> 00:03:53.01
different columns here inside Illustrator.
