I can use the same technique I just employed to do just that: round any specific corner, some, or all. If you want everything to be centered, apply a Transform effect to another fill (without rounded corners) with the exact opposite settings.Īll you FreeHanders are still snickering because FreeHand can round just one corner, and opposite corners. Use horizontal movements to add rounded corners to the left or right, and vertical movements to add rounded corners to the top or bottom. Under the Move section, adjust your fill slightly so that it’s offset from the original fill.
(If you’re working with text, use the Effect > Convert to Shape > Rounded Rectangle option.) Do your thing and give yourself some nice rounded corners. With the new fill targeted, choose Effect > Stylize > Round Corners.Use the Appearance panel to add a new fill.More after the jump! Continue reading below↓įree and Premium members see fewer ads!

Then I use the Transform effect to offset the fills slightly so that rounded corners are visible on one side only, or just on the top or bottom (Figure 2) I use one fill with a rounded corner effect applied, and one without. So how did I do it? In a nutshell, I start with a regular rectangle. (I can hear those FreeHand users giggling because FreeHand can do that.) I can’t even begin to tell you how often I hear requests from folks who want to round only some of the corners of an object in Illustrator. To complicate matters, he wanted the button style to be flexible enough that left-hand corners can be rounded, and right-hand corners can be rectangular corners, or vice versa (Figure 1).
I recently got a request from someone who wanted to use Illustrator to create dynamically resizable buttons for a Web site.
