Review answers
1 . To add a second stroke to an object, click the Add New Stroke button ( ) in the
Appearance panel or choose Add New Stroke from the Appearance panel menu. A
stroke is added to the top of the appearance list. It has the same color and stroke weight
as the original.
2 . After a graphic style is applied to a layer, everything you add to the layer has that style
applied to it. For example, if you create a circle on Layer 1 and then move that circle to
Layer 2, which has a Drop Shadow effect applied, the circle adopts that effect.
When a style is applied to a single object, other objects on that layer are not affected.
For example, if a triangle object has a Roughen effect applied to its path and you move
it to another layer, it retains the Roughen effect.
3 . To apply a second graphic style, with a graphic style applied to an object, Alt-click
(Windows) or Option-click (Mac OS) another graphic style in the Graphic Styles
panel.
4 . When Align To Pixel Grid is enabled for an object, all the horizontal and vertical
segments in the object get aligned to the pixel grid, which provides a crisp appearance
to strokes.
5 . The three image file types that can be chosen in the Save For Web dialog box are:
JPEG, GIF, and PNG. PNG has two versions: PNG-8 and PNG-24.
6 . Named content is content that has had the name of the selected artwork changed in the
Layers panel. Unnamed content , content which has not had its name changed in the
Layers panel from the default, will not have CSS generated by default—you need to
enable this in the CSS Export Options dialog box by clicking the Export Options button
( ) in the CSS Properties panel.
