Questions

I'm trying to create a Scatter-Plot Graph, and I'm having a devil of a time.I need to plot data over time (X-axis). Some of the data-points overlap (are on the same date), but have different values (Y-axis). I absolutely cannot for the life of me, figure out how to use the Scatter-Plot tool, and the documentation is slim to almost non-existent.I've created one Scatter-Plot Graph the old fashioned way: I just drew it.The comma-delineated data is shown below the image:3/2015, 4070403/2016, 20736006/2018, 9216006/2018, 20736001/2020, 20736002/2020, 20736007/2020, 36864009/2020, 92160012/2020, 116640012/2020, 2916009/2021, 92160012/2021, 9216003/2022, 5832006/2022, 20736007/2022, 20736009/2022, 116640010/2022, 88473605/2023, 829440010/2023, 20736001/2024, 3686400I need to make dozens of these. I cannot draw each one this way. Any assistance on how to create this kind of graph using the graph tool is appreciated, thank you.

I posted about this a few weeks ago and got no help so I am trying again. I have created a suite of icons that have type running on a path.Whenever I transform type on a path, it flips around and I have to reset it manually. If I scale it by typing in the percentage, it is ok, however, this isn't always an option.Outlining is not an option as I need to keep the type live to create more icons. How can I get some help with this?? I am using Desktop version.Illustrator 28.5Mac OS Sonoma 14.4.1.

Hi!Just wondering if anyone can help, when I "Double-click to apply selected font to make text live," it makes a duplicate and keeps saying error. I have attached a screenshot below.Much appreciated! Thank you very much.

Hello,I would like to include the close of Illustrator at the end of an action. But I get in German the message:"Das Objekt Beenden ist zurzeit nicht verfügbar" (close command not available) Is it possible at all? And how could I find a solution here?(it's also ok to close manually, of course, but as there is this option, I would like to use it) thank you

Buenas tardes. Cómo soluciono el problema de estos pixeles cuando aplico la sombra paralela en ilustrador?  

Hello,is there a way to merge a script and an action? I would like to add at the end of an action the script I created to close the Illustrator app (as it does not work in the action as the Close command). Can I call a script in an action, and how (where do I find the action source files?), or do I have to make a script out of it all? thank you.

I'm wondering if there's a way for users to align objects to a line with varying heights. For example, I have a line that steps down at various places. Is there a way to align objects with each horizontal segment of the line at different heights? Ideally I would like to center align those objects with the horizontal line segments if possible.

I have Illustrator template files I set up where PDFs are precisely placed and are swapped out week to week. I would just have to move where the original .PDF file was linked from and once Adobe Illustrator couldn't find it's original location, it would ask me if I would like to "Replace" "Ignore" or "Ignore All" with a checkbox to "Apply to All" (photo attached from another thread) For some reason they've removed the "Apply to All" function in the update 4 days ago and now each instance has to be manually relinked 1-by-1. What is the reasoning behind this? Is there a workaround already implemented that I'm unaware of?

I'm trying to place a picture in a rektangular form in Illustrator. I've made the form, made it a path, and then I mark it together with the picture and try to create clipping mask. But every time I get an error saying that the form isn't a path. But it is! "urklippsbana" in swedish is path. What can be wrong? I'm starting to get grey hairs.

Hi,I created a new library in my Libraries (illustrator 2023) consisting of a lot of color group (5 elements each).When I want to bring back a color group in my Swatches palette, I right click it to go to "add then to swatches".Here is the bug; only the name of the theme is added in my Swatches, an empty folder with the correct name that is all I am able to produce.Any ideas how to procede, someone ?jean.

Texte verschwinden, wenn sie auf runden oder gebogenem Pfaden erstellt sind.Beim anwählen mit dem Kurser erscheinen sie wieder.Achtung Fehlerquelle, dieser Bug tritt immer wieder random auf.

When i use the brush tool in illustrator (and also on AfterEffects), there is a bit of a start delay, like it starts drawing only if i move the pen more.. this thing doesnt happen in Photoshop, but only for this too.. I tried to draw with mouse and it works fine. Help!

Hello, I notice small differences in the RGB values about an *.ai file, whether I open it in Illustrator or CorelDraw.Yes this is now a huge door opening the color management world :). But I try to keep it simple. Any (not only one) file that opens with different colors in Illustrator and CorelDraw, for example RGB 224-115-75 becomes 223-114-75. Actually not a huge problem, but I wonder why. Same is true for CMYK. The color profile in the *.ai is normal sRGB, the color in CorelDraw is the same.Also the CMYK profiles are the same. Is there any other option that could lead to such a minimal difference, or do I have to live with it?I ask especially as I work a lot with names colors and would like to see the color names in both programs. thank you.    

Whenever I try to click or select anything on a panel on my second monitor, all panels on that monitor disappear.Stage Manager is off (which may cause some unexpected behavior in some apps) and I know it's not my system because Illustrator 2023 (27.9) works just fine, and all other Adobe 2024 apps work as expected with tool panels on the second monitor. Running Illustrator 28.0 on a M2 Pro Mac Mini, MacOS Sonoma 14.1 

Hello, I am still new to illustrator and am having an issue, my artboard is small but when I exit out of changing the artboard size I get a huge white space attached are some screen shots. can anyone explain?? Thanks

Latest Illustrator update  26.1 not working. Spotted bugs:- my old illustrations display differently (example attached)- impossible to export for the web (screen attached) Thanks for your help !

Just updated my mac to Sonoma 14.1/ Illustrator version 28.0. After update it is no longer functioning.  Clicking any tool on the toolbar menu jumps the finder to the desktop. Clicking back on the artboard brings the toolbar back up but it is impossible to select a tool (key commands still work). This did not happen before the Sonoma update and it only happens in Illustrator.  Have done all the usual steps such as restarting, deleting all the adobe stuff from the library and reinstalling illustrator.   

Below is a a script that I found in hopes that it would be able to take all of the "used swatches" in the file and write a list of their swatch names in a text box. I work in the Sublimation apparel industry and it would be very useful for art approval documents. The script I found below does not work. I have little to no knowledge on how to edit or customize it to work the way I'd like it to.   Any advice, editing, creating of the script so I can download it... would be much appreciated.   Thanks in advance!   // https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/write-used-color-swatch-names-as-text-on-the-artboard/m-p/9487666#M73128 function usedSwatches() { if (app.documents.length == 0) { return; } else { var docRef = app.activeDocument; var docW = docRef.width; var docH = docRef.height; var sL = docRef.swatches; var text = ''; for (var i = 0; i < sL.length; i++) { if (sL[i].name != '[None]' && sL[i].

I have random instances of area type within a same .ai document breaking words to characters in the time between a close/save and the next reopening of the document. Same font and size in area text box X will reopen correctly, while text box Y will retain the box, but with words broken to individual characters or pairs. See screenshot attached. No consistency for this problem as to display size or text, font or color.I've had this issue throughout Illustrator versions, currently using 2020 on a Mac Pro.
