8. In the Layers panel, expand the Shaper Group sublayer.
Scribbling over an area of overlapping objects converts those objects into
a Shaper Group. All overlapping objects become part of the group, even
it they were not aff ected by the scribbling motion. All overlapping
shapes are included
How you scribble with the tool determines what will happen: in the Shaper Group.
• Scribble past the outer edges of the shapes to remove (knock out)
both the fi ll and stroke attributes of the area.
• Scribble entirely within an overlap area to knock out that area.
• Scribble from an overlap area to a non-overlap area to merge the shapes where you
scribble. Th e resulting shape is the color of the front shape in the stacking order.
• Scribble from a non-overlap area to an overlap area to create shapes that depend
on where you start to scribble:
– Start in the back object to create a merged shape with the same color as the
back shape.
– Start in the front object to knock out the areas where you scribble.

9. Move the Shaper tool cursor over overlapping shapes to reveal the
overlapping paths.

Move the tool cursor
over the group to
reveal the object edges.

10. Click the group to select it.

Clicking inside a Shaper Group selects the entire group object. It is surrounded by
a single bounding box, and an arrow widget appears on the right edge. When the
entire Shaper Group is selected, changes to the fi ll or stroke attributes aff ect all visible
elements of the group.
