I spent 5 hours on the road today, so I watched this video poolside at my hotel upon arrival in Springfield. :) As I am getting back into Adobe mode for back to school, I decided to see what I could learn new about Adobe Illustrator today. That led me to JuiceFoozle's YouTube page!

- Join Tool: This was new in one of the CC releases and since I moved from CS5 to CC2017, I wasn't aware of it. This tool allows you to merge lots of random drawn lines into one path, so you can stroke it or fill it. This is super handy!
- Adding Used Colors to Swatches: Loved this tip! You just select everything on the canvas, click the New Swatch Group in Swatches panel, and create a global swatch! Then all the colors you've already used will show in the panel.
Check it out. Excellent information.
