Illustrator script for making squares of color in various nuances?

Hi Niels Westergaard​

too little informations.

• Where the color values comes from?
• values in the script
• values following a rule
• from swatches
• from external file

• How the color fields are should aligned in what kind of document?

• Do you looking for help to writing a script? How is your scripting knowledge base?
• What scripting language do you prefer?

• Which Illustrator version do you use?
• Which OS?

And so on …

But anyway, here is a starting point in [JS]:

var aDoc = app.documents.add();
var Rect = aDoc.pathItems.rectangle(0, 0, 50, -50);
Rect.stroked = false;
Rect.filled = true;
var itemColor = new CMYKColor();
itemColor.cyan = 0;
itemColor.magenta = 100;
itemColor.yellow = 100;
itemColor.black = 0;
Rect.fillColor = itemColor;

This snippet creates a new document, a color (values within the script) and a filled rectangle.
