Can you modify this script for me?

Script modification requirement / Modification requirement 1: Adding the artboard is completed and automatically deselect all objects 2: Then the option window of Illustrator's file/export/export as...

Can someone help me? Thanks

I expect the reason you haven't received any replies is because your request is not clear. I would start by describing what the script does. Then describe what parts you want modifying, in terms of "instead of it doing that, I want it to do this". And describe it in as much detail as possible.

Added function: Cancel the selection of all objects and pop up the illustrator file/export/export as window. The script has finished running. I hope you can understand my requirements. Thank you for your help

That is easy. Add this at the end::

doc.selection = null;

The task is not yet clear.

Do you really need the export dialog? This means that the script is always interrupted for manual input.

And which way do you want to export?

• export for screens
• export as
• save for web (legacy)
• or selection export as

Which settings do you use?

In which file format do you want to export?

You can call the save-dialog or the save-as-dialog - but IMHO not (one of) the export dialog(s) directly. But maybe in combination with actions.

Hello I need to export to TIF dpi to 150. The export location needs to be manually set. I don’t know if the script can be implemented. Thank you for your help

[pixxxelschubser]

Why manually? Do you want to save to a new location every time?

Otherwise, the location can be hard-coded in the script.

Export as tiff (without dialog) for example, see:

Export File as TIFF... no file saved 

[lengxiaomo]

Because of work reasons, an AI file needs to be exported to many different TIF folders, so you need to manually select the export location
