Adobe Illustrator-The move tool

Ah yes the move tool! Although I'm not an expert on Adobe by no means, I felt like it would be good to share what I have experienced using their programs. Now although there are many tools in the Adobe programs as well as other design programs, this my friends, in my opinion, is the most powerful tool in the design field. Without it, you can't go anywhere. Sure you can come up with all the ideas that you want, but without being able to move ,your ideas will never be able to be put into action. 

For those of you who still don't know what it is, it basically allows the person to move part of a design from one area to another. You can move to the left, the right, upwards, downwards, diagonal, basically wherever you want to go. Not only that but there is a keyboard combination that will allow me to do another feature. Now lets say for instance that I wanted to move the area I chose from the left to the right and wanted to make sure  I moved it in a straight path. If I hold shift+click and then move that selected area from the left to the right, then it will keep my path straight.


3 things I like about the move tool

• Easy to use
• Versatile
• It moves stuff

This tool has been around for years and I still love it haha! It's so awesome that I had to find a video dedicated to it to help you see how epic it really is. Sometimes the best things in life, as far as careers go, are simple and this is a prime example of simple.
