To convert all lines and outlines in Figure 3
-
Turn on the Auto Place Nodes toggle on the Nodes page of the Vectorize Settings dialog box (see Auto Place Nodes).
This automatically places nodes at positions R1, R2, R3, etc., when appropriate.
- Select Convert Lines, and then choose Line in the Entity option menu in the tool settings window.
- Choose the appropriate Mask.
-
Enter a data point at P1.
This automatically places a node at R1 and converts the branch going off Shape 1.
- Choose Convert All Connected Lines.
-
Enter a data point at P2.
This converts all of the network of lines to the right of shape 1, including the ellipse, and automatically places nodes at R2 and R3.
- Select Convert Lines again, and choose Outline in the Entity option menu in the tool settings window.
-
Keep the same Mask and enter data points at P3, P4, and P5.
This converts the outlines between R2 and R3, between R1 and R2, and between R1 and R3, and completes all line conversion in Figure 3.
