I work on apparel patterns in Illustrator and I have been looking for this answer for so long. So glad you posted this. You just made my life a lot easier.
This video is immensely useful. I’ve been using my stopgap technique in which I made a brush composed of 7.2pt circles that scale to an inch at 1:10. To get the length I’d have to count the circles. It wasn’t precise but it was good enough. The technique here is exactly what I needed. It’s far more precise and easier to manage. I should’ve looked it up years ago. Kudos to you!
AWESOMMMEEE!!! Thanks - needed to calculate the length of neon glass tubing, very curvy because it's sign letters, in order to select the right transformer voltage - this will help a lot!
Many thanks! I am trying to create a greyhound coat sewing pattern from scratch and had no idea how to translate the custom dog measurements into the actual pattern! xxx
Loved your video.. im trying to make shaped boxes with a cricut and this has helped me a lot.. thank you.. do you know if this can be done in photoshop?
thank you very very much for long time i wanted to get any info about how to do it even if not exactly what i needed but its better than nothing i was wondering if i can measure a design if it well fit on a real world object the curve ....etc so when i print the design and for-example need to put it on a cuvered arrow in real world how would i be sure it well fit, sorry for the stupid question but i learn from internet cant afford class's, any info how or whats it called to research about the correct topic i well be very thankful greetings from Yemen

Such great information that I subscribed! Thank you!
Great! Welcome to the channel!
Great tutorial! This will help me so much. Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback! Which part was most useful: finding the length of a curve or making a 3D model of the design?
@@CaryHawkins where to find the info at 3:16 was most helpful Thank you :)
Im a non AI user, but this tutorial proves super useful. Thanks.
Sweet!!!! This helps me out tremendously!!!
Great!

I don't think so because it isn't a vector format program.
You're a godsend, thank you.

For that, I would measure the arrow with a soft tape measure and just make your art to that size.
Useful ,Thank you
You are welcome. Thanks for the feedback!
Can you find the length of the curve on the ipad version?
Not sure. I pretty much only design with my desktop. Let me know if this method works or not.
ponderous! point please!
Nice
Thanks!

... real world use metric system
I wish we did too. It's so much easier to do the math!
@@CaryHawkins your tutorial itself is very helpful :). But yeah I'm always very confused, when someone use imperial system
Nice
Thanks!
