Adobe Labs Experimentation

CATEGORIES: Design Tip of the Day, Illustrator | Jeff Witchel | August 07, 2007

If you want an opportunity to play with new emerging technologies, Illustrator CS3 offers a portal to the future under the Window menu > Adobe Labs. In Illustrator, there are two Adobe Lab panels (palettes). The first, called “knowhow,” offers instant help in using all the tools in the Tools panel. This contextual panel includes a description of what a selected tool does, key commands associated with that tool, a button to change the tool’s options, and another button to find out more information in Adobe Help Viewer.
