Questions

Hi, can anyone help with a script which can display these opened windows in illustrator in a panel with each document as a button.It will help in doing back and forth with ease by clicking those buttons. My working involves opening of lot of files and navigating them get difficult when I have lot of files opened.  

I'm doing an assigment for a class and i was wondering if i could make certain segments of strokes a different color than the rest of stroke.I want to Trace that arm but i want a black stroke except for the part that it connects to the main body which is why im wonderingg if i could change the color so it could match up with the main body and seem like it's not there.

I have had this a couple of times and I see it now as potentially very upsetting in the future when I come to work on documents I have created in the past. Trying to access some documents saved to the cloud, but when I try to open I get this:  I MUST have access because I created it myself. I am the only person who uses this account and am definitely the owner. I am scared now that everything I've ever done and saved to the cloud will be lost to me. Can someone tell me how to fix this "break" in the path to my documents? Many thanks!

The easiest solution to my problem would just be being able to round the corners of an art board, but because that is not possible I am a bit stuck. I am trying to simply remove the 4 white corners from my art that has a rounded rectangle outline. I can save it as a PNG just fine and the art is a perfect rounded rectangle, but I want the file in PDF format, and when it is saved as a PDF the white corners of the artboard are still visible. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions for how to save this as a PDF, while having the artboard corners transparent?

Hi team!, I have an urgent question: is there a script or option that would allow me to align 10 randomly distributed squares, rectangles, or other rectangular geometric shapes so that they are adjacent to each other without overlapping or leaving any gaps? I frequently perform this task and would like to see if there is a way to save some valuable seconds. Thank you very much

I am trying to export my artboards as PNG's so I can put them in a video editing program to play music behind it. But the problem I'm facing is just exporting said artboards. A few of them are fine- but most of them are not showing the actual designs, just exported as "blank"-I have white,black, or color- backgrounds Or it has half the design but not the full design. I've tried "Export As...", "Export for screens (this one I can actually see preview's and everything looks fine in the preview but still the same issue), my app is up to date, I've made sure all the overprint buttons I can find in settings and attributes is checked off. in the overprint preview It looks similar to the mix up pngs I do get but again... I've changed all of those settings. I've tried on Mac and Windows. Anyhelp? -please don't give me a tutorial of exporting- I've attached a couple of files. The only way I was able to get something to work was saving it as an svg but I can't use the svg for the purpose I

Hi all,  I have a block of Area Text, no returns in it, and am trying to insert a line break into a line if the first character is a tilde (and delete the second character, a space. Below is my function. When I run it, it replaces the tilde with a hard return.  Font is Arial Bold. Running on a Windows machine, AI 27.4.1. Any thoughts?      var seekFirstTilde = function(l /*Story.lines[i]*/) { try { var characs = l.characters; var conts = characs[0].contents; if (conts == "~") { characs[1].remove(); characs[0].contents = "\n"; } } catch(e) {} //l.characters[idx-1].contents = "\n"; }            

Is anyone else having this (admittedly not huge) problem? Since updating to Illustrator 2023, I can no longer toggle between open illustrator documents using using Command + ~ (I'm on a Mac). I noticed that this funtion disappeared from Photoshop awhile back, but I was still able to do it in Illustrator and InDesign until very recently. Again, it's not an unworkable problem, but it does slow down my workflow, so any help would be great. Thank you!

A few days ago i made some sketches/imported some inspriation images into the illustrator-file that I was working in. I later deleted all of them. Now, whenever i try to export an object into an SVG, the deleted objects follows the export. It even happens when i open a completly new file and even after i reinstalled illustrator. Did anyone else experience this issue? If yes, how did you solve it?

Software Info:Windows 10 Pro, 64bitAdobe CC, all apps utd Hi! I'm having a weird one. When I am using the type tool in Illustrator and go to choose my font, Times New Roman Regular does not exist in the list. I have Bold, Bold Italic, and Italic. The font is installed on my computer and working properly in other programs aside from Photoshop. Photoshop is replacing TNR-R with Radioactive Roman. If I take an old file that had TNR-R and open it in Illustrator, TNR-R is automatically replaced with Radioactive Roman. If I open it in Photoshop, it looks OK but says it is Radioactive.  According to Windows, I cannot uninstall and reinstall Times or Radioactive to see if that would fix the issue. Times is a protected font, and Radioactive doesn't even have a path to find the file. Any ideas?

I try to recolor text object. The color PANTONE 185 C is present in the swatches and if object type is CompoundPathItem then it works. But when a text object selected then it lost a color (that is, it turns into an object without fill).#target illustrator var doc = app.activeDocument; var swatches = doc.swatches; if (doc.selection.length > 0) { var targetItem = doc.selection[0]; if (targetItem.typename == "PathItem" || targetItem.typename == "CompoundPathItem") { var colorFound = false; for (var i = 0; i < swatches.length; i++) { if (swatches[i].name == "PANTONE 185 C") { alert("PANTONE 185 C"); targetItem.fillColor = swatches[i].color; colorFound = true; break; } } if (!colorFound) { alert("PANTONE 185 C not found in Swatches"); } } else { alert("apply fill color"); var textRange = targetItem.textRange;

Tengo un Imac nuevo, no tengo información guardada en el, pero al intentar usar illustrator me dice que no tiene memoria para procesar en macOS, alguna sugerencia?Ya realicé todos los pasos que aparecen en la Ayuda de Adobe y no funcionaron 

Hello,I am new to this forum and relatively new to Illustrator but I've got a good grip on it I think.I have been scanning artwork in to Photoshop to fine tune, and then saving as a TIFF file to place in illustrator (my graphics are for fabric printing). Then I've been making an Image Trace using High Fidelity Photo and this has worked well previously. Today however I'm working with smaller elements and I don't think the result is particularly good. The trace is far removed from the original, yet I know it is possible to look almost exactly the same because I have experienced this (and seen people on youtube having very detailed results using High Fidelity Photo to Image Trace watercolours).Both the PS and AI files are set to 300ppi, both using CMYK colours.I've attached screenshots of an example of my problem, as well as the Image Trace panel so you can see my issue.The left images are the original watercolour taken from PS as a TIFF file.The right images is the Image Trace I get usin

Look at this video:No, it is not locked. No, it is not in a locked layer. It is just randomly not going to move. I can only move this element ith the arrow keys. I can also nog select it righht.What is happening here???

 

Whenever I open an Illustrator file, it begins on the left of the window and is slightly slim and I have to adjust the tab and search for the artwork.

Hello fellow members, I am so annoyed because the adobe generative recolour window disappears once I applied colour to the design I need the history to remain there so I can use other colours pallets which I liked.   is there something Im doing wrong or its meant to be disappearing after I apply the colour pallet.   ( I want to use multiple pallets on same design after applying one pallet I want to dublicate the art work and I want the generative recolour window to stay stactic so I can apply another colour pallet to the same design.)   I hope my question makes sense and desperately looking for a solution.   thank you 

Hi All,I just created a game art character in Illustrator CC, sliced it up, exported the slices to PNG, but my Exported PNGs don't seem have a clean Alpha transparency—such as I'd get in Fireworks for example.When I bring them into the 'Spriter' animation software, they appear to have ragged edges with white anti-aliasing (like a gif).Q: Is it not possible to export with a clean Alpha transparency from Illustrator?I tried PNG 8 and PNG 24, with:> Save for Web (legacy)When I tried any other export option, including 'export selection', it failed to save all of the slices. "Unable to export the following files."But I digress...Thanks all,John

Been having all sorts of issues with Beta - arrowhead selection on the stroke options is all duplicated so I can't tell which I'm selecting until I click it. Effects panel just shows a blank; impossible to tell what the effect looks like until I apply it. What's up with this?! Any solutions Adobe? It's making my workstream extremely slow.

When I add text in an Adobe Illustrator 2023 document it defaults to Myriad Roman, which is not installed on my computer. So I get the pink text box. And oftentimes type and labels that are in Myriad Pro Regular (which is my supposedly default font) will change to Myriad Roman for no reason. Does anyone know what's causing this and how to fix it? I'm on a Macbook Pro, Apple M1 chip, Sonoma 14.6.1, Illustrator 2023. Thanks.

Hi there,how do you reduce or adjust the size of the large gray area around the artboard? The large unused space is troublesome to me when i want to scroll in my document, because i easealy end up way past the area i am looking for while i'm scrolling. I know there are lots of other functions to get to the desired area, but i rather want to fix this issue than to change my workflow.I hope someone has solution for this.
