Hi. This video we're gonna look at layers and the polystar tool. Nice simple stuff. So down the bottom, we're given our first layer. It's called layer one. And what we're gonna do is rename it.
So layer one we're gonna call maybe building. Okay? And what we're gonna do, just to make it easier so we don't go and wreck things later on, is we're gonna lock it. See this a little lock icon here, click this. And it just means I can't move it or wreck it. Okay?
Um, I'm gonna create a new layer. So this little turned up page down here, there's new layer. It's called layer two. I'm gonna rename it. This one's gonna be called stars. And I'm gonna draw on this layer.
I know I'm on this layer. Can you see it's this highlighted color in this case it's kind of an orange color. And we use the Polystar tool. The Polystar tool is this one here. Click on it. And when you get started with the Polystar tool, it gets, it comes out with, uh, less of a star, okay.
And more polygons. So I don't want that. I've selected it and deleted it. Back to my Polystar tool. I'm gonna click on the options and find stars. There you are from Polygon.
We're gonna switch it to Star. And if I leave it all default, it's gonna give you your traditional star shape. Okay? What I want to do is more, we'll have a couple of those actually. Um, so I'm gonna pick yellow for stars 'cause stars are yellow. Okay?
Couple of these round and great. Nice. So I want a couple of different shapes. So I'm gonna go to options and bring this back down. Um, let's look at number of sides. I'm gonna bump it up to 10.
So there's lots more of these edges here. Um, and the star point size just means, can you see, it kind of goes in the inset here is kind of half of the size. So 0.5, if I go way down to 0.2, click on this and then I drag it out. Can you see I get a real kind of like sparkly star, real kind of, um, pointed tips. And obviously if you go the other way and you crank it right up, you get, uh, more like a, okay, if you get up to 0.9 and I put in say 50, you get more like a kind of a Starburst, that kind. Oh, actually what I wanted was, I wanted this up to 0.9.
There you go. There you go. More like a Starburst. Okay. And yeah, kind of like a sticker, gold labely type thing. A venue.
Okay? So that's how to make some terrible looking stars in your terrible looking skyline.
