As I'm doing that, we can see that it's an empty rectangle here with a black border, which is the default appearance. I'm going to be using the Rectangle tool, and I can come out here and draw a rectangle, then draw another one. If I've been working in this workspace in the past and not leaving it tidy, I can reset this workspace by going to Window > Workspace and resetting the Essentials Classic workspace.įor the basic drawing tools, we have groups of tools in the toolbar, and some of them are hidden behind the triangle in the bottom right corner of a tool.
I prefer it as one, and there's a double arrow at the top left to click to open or collapse it. This workspace can be two columns or one column.
I actually prefer the Essentials Classic workspace, which shows the control panel at the top of the screen, more panels on the right, and all the tools in your toolbar. The default Essentials workspace kind of simplifies the interface and doesn't show you all the tools. Don't worry, it's not harder to use - it just shows you more tools.

The only problem is if you're ever watching tutorials and somebody's using the full toolbar, which has all the tools, and that's called the advanced toolbar. Illustrator actually has a basic toolbar and an advanced toolbar, and the idea is that there's a lot of tools in Illustrator and Adobe tried to simplify it with the basic toolbar. These workspaces control which panels you're going to see and the amount of tools you see in the toolbar. There are a variety of different workspaces that we can use. When we open up Illustrator, the workspace is controlled here in the Window Workspace menu. You can also change your orientation from upright portrait page to a wide landscape page. You can also customize your preferred system of measurements, such as picas, millimeters, or inches, and type in whatever custom size you want. If you're creating web designs or things for on screen, you have various presets for that as well. There are a variety of different presets to choose from depending on what you're doing. I can create a new file by clicking the Create New button here or going to File > New. Let me get you started with Illustrator by showing you the basics of creating and navigating files using basic drawing tools and setting a few preferences.
