hybrid symbols

[Sandking]

Anyone knows how to create hybrid symbols?

[Petri]

I do.

You did not ask HOW to do it, but: Draw the 2D stuff. Draw the 3D stuff so that it aligns with the 2D stuff. Select both. Say "Create Symbol".

and it really is that easy...

Say "Create Symbol".

Assuming he's using voice-activation technology & VW ; )

[Jonathan Pickup]

OK, from the menu bar choose

Modify > Create Symbol...

[Petri]

And on the eight day of the week (1), he picked up the mouse and said to it (2): "Computer, let there be (3) a hybrid symbol."

Well, in my training I have always referred to menu commands with the verb "say", to avoid any confusion between them and selecting. (In fact, there are languages where the same verb would be used for both a menu command and object selection.)

So, it is SELECT for objects, PICK (UP) for tools and SAY for commands. Easy.

Oh. Forgot footnotes.

(2) Star Trek: The Voyage Home

(3) Genesis (NOT the band)

Please, pardon me ... I was attempting to making a funny ... considering that it is really possible to have voice activated commands... for those who require them... via OSX Universal Access

[Petri]

Ye shall be forgiven.

In fact, I might even try this voice activation... Just beam me up, Scotty!
