Road Style

  1. 1. Created a new file.
  1. Selected the pen tool and make a stroke.
    Opened the appearance palette by selecting Window/Appearance from the file menu.
  2. In the stroke palette i changed the weight to 10pt.
  3. Dragged the 10pt stroke from the appearance palette to the Duplicated one Selected Item icon at the bottom of the palette.
  4. This created a copy of the 10pt stroke so that there are now two of them.
    Double clicked on the stroke tile and dragged the cursor to the white area to make the stroke on top.
  5. Going back to my stroke palette, i changed the weight of the white stroke to 1pt. thus creating a white stripe through the middle of the black stroke.
  6. back on to the stroke palette, to check the dashed line box.
    first dash box typed 6pt and pressed enter.
  7. i then Clicked on the New Graphic Style button in the graphic styles palette and my road has now become part of the documented graphic styles.
it is saved for future use, in a very convenient location, the graphic styles tab.
