Now the Delete Shape Tool basically deletes the fill or the properties, style properties that is of the object. So with the star if I come in here and I click inside the star you can see that the outline remains however your fill color and stroke color has disappeared. So you can reapply that or do whatever you want with this object. The Eyedropper Tool allows us to transfer colors over from one object to the other. So let's say I want this aqua color from this rectangle over to the star. Well I can take the Eyedropper Tool and click on that rectangle and you can see now that those style properties have been transferred to the palette. And then I can take the Paint Bucket Tool and click inside the star. Make sure I have both selected and click inside the star to transfer those properties over. And the same can be done if you select let's say a shape with your Select Shape Tool and then you take the Eyedropper and select a color. You can see that it will automatically transfer those properties over to your new shape. The line width option allows us to adjust the width of selected points. So in this case if I were to select this point, click and hold down my left mouse button and go this way, it tapers the line. If I go this way it thickens the line. And you can also adjust the properties numerically above on your top bar. If you choose to hide an edge you can do so by selecting this tool and clicking on an edge. You'll notice that it simply hides it, it doesn't delete the edge meaning you can retain your filled in object. And if you ever need to make the line reappear you can simply click again to have it come back. And for the Stroke Exposure Tool we can click and as you can see as I move upward or if I go to the left, the lines start to disappear. And if I come backward it reappears so this is just a way for you to show which part of the object has the stroke property applied to it. And finally down here for the curve profile example, what we have here is a rectangle and we have an outline of a shape. If we were to select this object, select it's points and then take the Curve Profile Tool and select this line shape, you can see that it changes the shape of the line essentially on this selected object. And you'll see at the top bar here we have a Repeat Count. Right now it's pretty high. If I were to set it lower you can see now that it looks like there's less turbulence going on within these lines. And so that is what the Curve Profile can do for you. Essentially transfer a shape over to another shape and so you can use that for then your strokes.
