Pen Tool Preview in Illustrator CC

Over the years, the Pen tool has become notorious as a tough tool for Illustrator users to learn and master.

Now the Pen tool itself has been enhanced to show a “Rubber Band” Preview of the results as you are drawing with the Pen.

In this tutorial, I will review how the Pen tool works and explore the new Preview feature. You will get to see how it works and how do you turn it off if you don’t want to use it.
