In Illustrator, the scissors tool is used to cut and shape objects. It is a versatile tool that can be used to create designs, illustrations, logos, and more. Here are some tips on how to use the scissors tool in Illustrator:

  1. Start by selecting the object you want to cut. Then, use the scissors tool to make a clean cut.
  2. If you want to make a more intricate cut, hold down the Option key and drag the cursor up or down on the object you want to cut. You can also use the arrow keys to move the cursor around.
  3. When you’re finished cutting an object, release it so that it can be placed on a layer or panel in your document.
