The default point of origin cannot be moved from the center.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
The statement suggests that the default point of origin cannot be moved from the center. However, this is not true.

In order to open a tools' dialog box, you must...
-
Double click the tool
-
Click on the tool once
-
Right click the tool
-
Open the tool on the view tab
Correct Answer
A. Double click the toolExplanation
To open a tools' dialog box, you need to double click the tool. Double clicking is a common action that is used to open or activate an item in many software applications. By double clicking the tool, you are indicating to the software that you want to access the dialog box associated with that tool, allowing you to modify its settings or perform specific actions. This action is different from simply clicking on the tool once, right clicking the tool, or opening the tool on the view tab, as these actions are not specifically designed to open the tool's dialog box.Rate this question:

In order to place a gradient within a stroked path, one must convert it using the __________.
-
Outline stroke command
-
Tranform again command
-
Transform each command
-
Compound path command
Correct Answer
A. Outline stroke commandExplanation
To place a gradient within a stroked path, one must convert it using the outline stroke command. This command converts the stroke into a filled shape, allowing the gradient to be applied to it. The other options mentioned are not relevant to this process.Rate this question:

A compound path is used to make a hole in an object.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
A compound path is a feature in design software that allows you to combine multiple shapes or paths into one object. It is commonly used to create complex shapes or cutouts in objects. By using a compound path, you can easily create a hole in an object by subtracting one shape from another. Therefore, the statement "A compound path is used to make a hole in an object" is true.Rate this question:

The essential Pathfinder tools include the following except:
-
Add
-
Subtract
-
Intersect
-
Eliminate
Correct Answer
A. EliminateExplanation
The essential Pathfinder tools are used for navigation and finding the best route. The tools mentioned in the question, add, subtract, and intersect, are all used to manipulate and analyze paths. However, "eliminate" does not fit into this category as it does not involve any path manipulation or analysis. Therefore, "eliminate" is the correct answer as it is not an essential Pathfinder tool.Rate this question:

_______ refers to objects that share the same center point.
-
Shapes
-
Concentric
-
Paths
Correct Answer
A. ConcentricExplanation
Concentric refers to objects that share the same center point. In this context, it means that the objects are positioned in such a way that their centers align. This term is commonly used in geometry to describe circles or spheres that have the same center but different radii. The concept of concentricity is also applicable to other shapes or objects that have a common central point.Rate this question:

Two or more paths that are combined in such a way that "holes" appear wherever the paths overlap refer to ______________.
-
Compound shapes
-
Pathfinders
-
Punchout shapes
Correct Answer
A. Compound shapesExplanation
Compound shapes refer to two or more paths that are combined in such a way that "holes" appear wherever the paths overlap. This means that when the paths are overlapped, the areas where they intersect or overlap create gaps or holes in the shape. Therefore, the correct answer is compound shapes.Rate this question:

________ to shape area converts two or more overlapping objects into a single, merged object.
-
Add
-
Subtract
-
Intersect
Correct Answer
A. AddExplanation
The "add" operation in shape area converts two or more overlapping objects into a single, merged object. This means that when you use the "add" operation, the overlapping areas of the objects are combined to create a new object that encompasses all the shapes. This can be useful when you want to create a unified shape from multiple overlapping objects.Rate this question:

_________ shape area creates a single, merged object from the area where two or more objects overlap.
-
Add
-
Subtract
-
Intersect
Correct Answer
A. IntersectExplanation
The correct answer is intersect. When we intersect two or more objects, we create a single, merged object that only includes the area where these objects overlap. This operation helps us to combine and merge different shapes or areas into one cohesive shape.Rate this question:
