: Illustrator CC: Turn off align objects to pixel grid I have inadvertently created an illustration with the align new objects to pixel grid turned on (not sure why it was on, I did not know

Posted in: #AdobeIllustrator #Alignment #PixelGrid #Vector

I have inadvertently created an illustration with the align new objects to pixel grid turned on (not sure why it was on, I did not know or ever turn it on) and want to now scale the image. When I turned it off, I scale and it is still affecting the illustration.

So I copy and pasted it into a new document (Making sure that the option was turned of when I created the new document), and it is still affecting the illustration.

How can I scale this object without it being affected by this option?

Drove me crazy as well. Don't forget to untick the box for new documents in addition to the solution above.

To tick off this option for a group of objects


Select all the objects with the selection method of your choice (or
more drastically, Ctrl+A to select all the objects in the
file)
With them selected, open the Transform Panel (Shift+F8).
Tick off Align to pixel grid




If you don't see this option, then you might need to open the extended options. To do this, click on the right top corner of the Transform panel and select Show Options.



BTW, in the future, you don't have to create a new document. You can just disable the option from the Transform Panel. To turn this option off for all future objects, then click on the top right corner again to show the options menu and tick off Align new objects to pixel grid.
