Spiral plugin free tool for Illustrator (mac)

Spiral plugin freebie tool from graphicxtras

Just added a (mac 10.12 only at the moment) spiral plugin tool (based on my earlier spiral plugin release for graphicxtras) as a free plugin release. It contains 5 plugins in total and can be used to create 1000s of unique spiral designs. The plugin has no presets etc so the results can be varied but with a little practise and use of the modifiers (shift, cmd, option key, space etc) all kinds of interesting and oddball and basic spirals can be generated using the set


Intending to add additional plugins to the tool later as well as it is also an experiment for me to add tools to CC 2017 (all my plugins were for Illustrator CS5 CS4 etc before that)

To install the plugin set, just add the aip to the user account (accessed via the library go to command in the finder) and add the plugin to the application support etc section for Illustrator.

The plugin appears in the toolbar with 5 plugins beneath the line segment tool
