Hello everyone, My objective is to duplicate the existing artboard items and replace an art item with a different one from another .ai file using a C++ plugin. I am able to duplicate the artboard items and also duplicate another art item from a different .ai file, but I am not able to transform the newly duplicated art to the position of the original art.Below is my code:ASErr ReplaceFromExternalFile(const ai::FilePath& sourceFilePath, AIArtHandle oldArtHandle) { ASErr error = kNoErr; //Store the current document handle AIDocumentHandle destDoc; sAIDocument->GetDocument(&destDoc); //Open source document containing new logo AIDocumentHandle sourceDoc; error = sAIDocumentList->Open(sourceFilePath, kAIUnknownColorModel, kDialogOff, false, &sourceDoc); if (error || !sourceDoc) return error; //Get first art in source document sAIDocumentList->Activate(sourceDoc, false); //Find the art handle to be used in Destinati

I have a drawing in illustrator that I want to keep in the exact same dimensions in photoshop. (eg 16mm in ai is 16mm in ps). So I exported from illustrator as a save as web and opened the file in photoshop, but found that I'm unable to edit in the layers panel. Can't even add a new layer there. Is there a fix or alternative way to do this?   

Hola!Alguien sabe por qué el cuentagotas no identifica el color de una imagen (jpg) vinculada en el documento de illustrator?Tengo dos iMac, en una si, en el otro, no... i la configuración, a priori, es la mismaGracias

Thanks Illustrator Team; I have been using the Align Objects on Path tool for a little while now. The tool is amazing having performed flawlessly every time. Great work Adobe

Hola, estoy teniendo este problema: No puedo usar la herramienta repetir en illustrator si tengo una imagen de firefly No le encuentro solucion.Slds.

The Text to Vector fuction is completely missing from my ai. I am taking a course where using this tool is necessary to complete a project and I am unable to complete this task due to this issue. How do I gain access to the AI tools in Illustrator?  For reference, there is no sign of this feature in my properties panel or in the window drop down. I have the most up to date version and the full creative cloud plan subscription.. 

Tengo una fuente instalada en macOS que aparece en Photoshop, pero no en Illustrator.Ya confirmé que la fuente está instalada en el sistema y funciona en otras aplicaciones, pero Illustrator no la reconoce o no la muestra en la lista.¿Qué puedo hacer para que la fuente aparezca y pueda usarla en Illustrator?

item.rotate(); rotates item but not its opacity mask. There's nothing about this in the reference afaik. Any ideas/workarounds?-See attached video & file-I found two similar threads but none of them really touched upon how to do this in scripting.

I'm having an issue with my adobe illustrator Library window. None of the buttons are able to click, and when I try to extend the window. Everything seems to stretch. It's been like this for about a week.

The Pen tool has always had negative connotations associated with it. Requires a lot of practice to become proficient using the tool. What would the level of effort be to use AI to help guide the user. Imagine trying to outline an object and AI can sense the task. Then guide the user to making the path with as few anchor points as possible. This would be evolutionary. 

The previous answer to the same question in Nov 2009 does not work for me. That was to copy and paste in front. I've tried every permutation of copy and paste; I renamed the path to path. It looks like a path when I add stroke, but it does not behave like one.  I can't cut it or join it to any other path. It remembers it's text path status.I'm running OS X 10.7.5.Thank you.

Since the latest Illustrator update, I have been unable to copy an object from one layer and paste it into another layer.

Hi all, This morning I was trying to add a colorgroup to Library in Illustrator but I found outI can't do this in illustator. I tried to add my ASE. colorgroup with a script in ChatGPT but this also doesn't work. Does anyone know how i can add a full colorgroup (more than 5 swatches) into Libraries so I can use this for various projects?

Hello,I'm writing because I updated Illustrator today, 8/4/25, and now Illustrator will not export my files as PNG's.  It was working just fine in that area before this update, and now it will not export any file as a PNG.  I've reset my laptop at least 3 times, and re-started the program multiple times, and the error still occurs. Attached is a screenshot of what I see when I try to export the files. Has anyone else run into this issue?  

I have the following issue: an svg file looks as I'd like it to look when opening it in the browser or in inkscape, but looks differently in Illustrator. I have made a reduced version of the file that still has the same issue. Can anyone tell me what is causing it and how to fix it? And maybe guidelines of what approaches to use and avoid so that the file would look the same when importing in Illustrator? Here's the file content and how it looks in the browser and in Illustrator. <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" width="19.6761in" height="29.031899999999997in" viewBox="-244.71 -1907.31 1888.91 2787.06"> <g id="CLIPPED-UNI0mnnnjkQbKxM6-front"> <g id="ARTWORK-UNI0mnnnjkQbKxM6-front"> <g> <g> <pattern id="design-part-2-UNI0mnnnjkQbKxM6-front" width="2150.99466667" height="1169.34746667" viewBox="0 0 136.6 74.26" patternUnits="userSpaceOnU

I know that this problem has been discussed here before, but I couldn't find a solution that works for me.I have an illustration of many objects that were created using the image traced. I am trying to select all these objects to create a pattern out of them, but when I am doing so I keep getting this message:"Can't finish previewing. Could not complete the requested operation."

Hello Adobe Support Team,After updating to Illustrator v29.7.1, I noticed that the Properties panel content is missing. The panel appears, but it’s empty — no options or controls are displayed.

I am using Illustrator CC 2017. My ellipse tool has always allowed me to create a perfect circle by holding shift, clicking and pulling from the upper left and releasing in the lower right hand corner. Now, for some reason, my ellipse tool has an extra little icon next to it with a left arrow (see attachment) I am only able to pull shapes at an angle and the only way I can create a perfect circle is by reversing from upper right to lower left. I checked under preferences and the 'constrain to angle' option is set at zero, and I can't find any other way to find presets for the shape tool. I can not pull a 90 degree angle on a rectangle or square, everything is automatically sheared. help 😞 ?????
