There are a few ways to un-expand an object in Illustrator. One way is to use the Expand command (Window > Expand). Another way is to use the Selection tool and click and drag the edge of the object you want to un-expand.
In Illustrator, when you expand an object, it becomes a Smart Object. This means that the object can be edited with the same tools and features that are available to Smart Objects in Adobe Photoshop.
To remove an outline in Illustrator, first, make sure the object you want to outline is selected. Next, choose Edit > Outline > Remove Outline.
Expand Appearance is a feature in Illustrator that allows you to enlarge or shrink elements on a page. You can use it to make things more visible or to make them fit better on the page.
There are a few reasons why you may not be able to expand the appearance of objects in Illustrator. One possibility is that you’ve selected the wrong type of object for expansion. For example, if you try to expand a vector shape, you might not be able to do so if the shape is a path or an image. Another possibility is that Illustrator doesn’t have the capability to expand the appearance of that object.
Expand may be greyed out because it is not currently in use. To activate it, you may need to restart your device.
In Illustrator, you can ungroup layers by selecting them and pressing the “G” key (or using the keyboard shortcut Command-G).
To change the Outline view in Illustrator, first, open the file you want to work with. Then, from the Tools menu, select Outline View. You can also press Ctrl+O (Windows) or Command+O (Mac).
Flattening transparency can be helpful when you want to reduce the amount of noise in an image.
In Photoshop, type on a path is greyed out if it’s not the active path. If you want to edit the type, you need to select it first.
