Merge overlapping anchors

New Here ,
May 08, 2011 May 08, 2011

I'd like to join same position points (of a few independent paths). Here I'd found a script: http://park12.wakwak.com/~shp/lc/et/en_aics_script.html#merge, but don't know why it's not working... Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

If you have three or more anchor points at the same location, only two of those can be merged. All others will still be seperate anchors.

I couldn't get this script to work ether. Drew a box, used scissors to cut it and tried running the script—no joy.

the script does not "join" path points, it "merges" path points. What SATO Hiroyuki means is that if two points on the same path are close enough to each other or overlapped, one of them will be removed.

one of those two will be removed if they're within the value hard coded in line 25.

I see how it works now. Not as useful a script as I thought it was.

it has it uses, on most paths, Offset Path tool creates lots of those overlapping points. It is a clean up script.

Okay okay, so the topic should be "Join overlapping anchors". Any ideas?
