How to keep all the paths shown while adding a new one?

Jun 18, 2012 5:30 AM

Hey there,

I'm completly new to Illustrator. I've a problem while using the pen tool.. when I draw a new path or more when I'm adjusting the angle of the drawn path, all the other paths aren't shown meanwhile. I don't like that because it keeps me from adjusting the lines accurate to each other. How can I keep them shown?

To illustrate what I mean: http://e20.img-up.net/Unbenannt-a21f.jpg

Hans,

And the paths have a stroke? If not, give them one (you may just set a value in the Weight dropdown in the Stroke palette/panel).
