Adobe Illustrator: How can I draw lines from a shared origin to multiple points simultaneously?

by

I have a large number of ellipses in my project, and I wish to draw a (straight) line from each ellipse center to a single shared origin. Doing this manually would be very inefficient. Is there an automatic way to do this in one go?

Answer

Unfortunately, we have to make it manually.

You made think the best way to achieve this.

So here we go:

  • Select copy and lock the circles.
  • Paste in front and convert the curves to straight lines using the Simplify Panel.
  • Make all the circles(now squares) to 1% using the Transform Each Panel.
  • Drag each point and align them.
    Remember each line is actually four anchor shape.

This is the best way I could think of.
