Customization Image Trace in Actions

[Dariakrukru]

Hello! I am using actions in Illustrator to edit a big amount of images. I need trace a plenty of *.png files, and the problem is that my recorded action do not consider trace settings.

For example, these raster images need "Corner" value to be very high. I have changed trace setting and saved it as new preset, then record a new action with custom trace preferences and launched it on the folder. But in result I got all images traced with default settings, so not accurate at all.

Is there any ways  to make actions see my trace preferences? If not, I think it will be extremely useful to add this feature in future version.

I searched before to do this . maybe there's a better way now ..

The only solution  I could find was bizarrely, to use Adobe Bridge

Select the images and Tools > Illustrator > Image Trace.

but I could not get it to work in CC.

however I tried it on a computer with  illustrator CS5 and CS5 Bridge and it

did work , it opened a pop-up and offered batch trace with  custom presets available.

Some people swear live trace in CS5 works better....

Wow! It works great, thank you very much
I had to install Bridge for this method, but the program finally solve my problem.

By the way, I have CC version of Adobe products and there are not any obstacles with that.
