InDesign creates the following types of paths and shapes: Simple paths Simple paths are the basic building blocks of compound paths and shapes. They consist of one open or closed path, which may be self-intersecting. Compound paths Compound paths consist of two or more simple paths that interact with or intercept each other. They are more basic than compound shapes and are recognized by all PostScript-compliant applications. Paths combined in a compound path act as one object and share attributes (such as colors or stroke styles). Compound shapes Compound shapes consist of two or more paths, compound paths, groups, blends, text outlines, text frames, or other shapes that interact with and intercept one another to create new, editable shapes. Some compound shapes appear as compound paths, but their component paths can be edited on a path-by-path basis and do not need to share attributes. A B C Types of paths and shapes A. Compound shape About paths All paths share certain characteristics that you can manipulate to create a wide range of shapes. These characteristics are as follows: Closure A path is either open (an arc, for example) or closed (a circle, for example). Direction The direction of a path determines which areas are filled and how start and end shapes (such as arrow heads) are applied. Stroke and fill A path's outline is called a stroke. A color or gradient applied to an open or closed path's interior area is called a fill. After you create a path or shape, you can change the characteristics of its stroke and fill. ADOBE INDESIGN CS2 380 User Guide A B C D E F Strokes and fills A. Fill with closed Contents You can put text or graphics inside a path or shape. When you put contents inside an open or closed path, you use the path as a frame. Contents are not the same as a fill; for example, a single frame can simultaneously contain text and use a gradient fill. Segments A path is made up of one or more straight or curved segments. Anchor points The beginning and end of each segment are marked by anchor points, which work like pins holding a wire in place. Paths can have two kinds of anchor points--corner points and smooth points. You can draw a path using any combination of corner and smooth points. If you draw the wrong kind of path, you can always change it. A B C Changing corner points to smooth points A. Same point positions combining corner and smooth points Note: Don't confuse corner and smooth points with straight and curved segments. A corner point can connect any two straight or curved segments, while a smooth point always connects two curved segments. Endpoints In an open path, the starting and ending anchor points are called endpoints. Direction lines You can control curves by dragging the direction lines that appear at anchor points to form curves.
