17 min 20 sec

Yes, there are times when using the Direct Selection Tool where you might stop, scratch your head, and think “Isn’t this the same as the Selection Tool?”

And you would be correct in thinking that, as there ARE instances where they behave the same.

But the differences are vast and distinct and we need them both. As you’ll see in this Episode, the two part ways very quickly and show their own strengths.

In this Episode we’ll see:

  • How the Direct Selection Tool behaves like the Selection Tool
  • How to edit paths with the Direct Selection Tool
  • How to modify Type that’s been converted to outlines
  • How to edit the contents of Graphic Frames
  • How to edit Text Wraps
  • How to change closed paths to open oaths with the Direct Selection Tool
  • and more stuff

Please don’t miss this Episode, especially new users, as this tool is essential in working with paths as you create documents.
