Script to copy SVG code from selected object

Copy link to clipboard

Copied

Hi all,

I am trying to create my first Illustrator Script and it seems that I need some help.

When selecting and copying two objects (like in the image above) and pasting them into a text editor, the following SVG code will be pasted:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<svg id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 24 24">
<defs><style>.cls-1{fill:#ebebeb;}</style></defs>
<rect class="cls-1" width="24" height="24"/>
<path d="M16.71,9.29c.2,.2,.29,.45,.29,.71s-.1,.51-.29,.71-.45,.29-.71,.29-.51-.1-.71-.29l-2.29-2.29v9.59c0,.55-.45,1-1,1s-1-.45-1-1V8.41l-2.29,2.29c-.39,.39-1.02,.39-1.41,0-.2-.2-.29-.45-.29-.71s.1-.51,.29-.71l4-4c.2-.2,.45-.29,.71-.29s.51,.1,.71,.29l4,4Z"/>
</svg>

 

The script that I am trying to create should help me manipulating the SVG code so that only the text inside the quotes of <path d=""/> will be pasted.

 

The result should look like this:

M16.71,9.29c.2,.2,.29,.45,.29,.71s-.1,.51-.29,.71-.45,.29-.71,.29-.51-.1-.71-.29l-2.29-2.29v9.59c0,.55-.45,1-1,1s-1-.45-1-1V8.41l-2.29,2.29c-.39,.39-1.02,.39-1.41,0-.2-.2-.29-.45-.29-.71s.1-.51,.29-.71l4-4c.2-.2,.45-.29,.71-.29s.51,.1,.71,.29l4,4Z

 

Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?

 

Thanks a lot!
