[systems01h61704443]

Dear Friends,

      We are need to remove overlapped arts from AI file.

      We try to get overlapped art from all arts(Like as line ,arc ,circle,ellipse,etc) of current AI file.

      But we do not correctly identified which art is overlapped on other.

      Please note that we try to find using it segment point for compare. but it was not works correctly.

      So we need correct API functions or any other logic to find the overlapped arts from AI file.     

      We needed yours help for solving this problem,so please reply this mail.

      We will wait for reply.

With Regards,

     Vicky.

As far I know, there are no APIs that will make this easy. Your best bet it so iterate over all the art in the document, comparing all art against all other art. This can be sped up by doing a bounds comparison first of course, but at some point you'll need to do the nitty gritty to determine if art overlaps art.
