Create a unique gift box for small gifts using Adobe Illustrator. Tutorial by Sara Froehlich.
Select the ellipse with the Selection tool (V). Open General preferences again (cmd/ctrl +K) and change the keyboard increment setting to "6 in" (without the quotes). Click OK to accept the setting and close the preferences dialog.
Hold the opt/alt key (to duplicate the object, remember?) and press the right arrow key on the keyboard. This will pop a copy of the ellipse to the right side of the top rectangle.
