"BBAccumRotation" is an informal property that is often referenced to get the rotation angle of a TextFrame. Its lack of support does not amount to a bug. I am rather surprised that it affects the behavior in the GUI.   It might have been better to limit the target from PageItem to TextFrame. Normally one is rarely aware of tags when editing a PageItem. ... View more

Hi @m1b. Unfortunately, there is no special document.   In this case, it is easier to know the XML structure if we do it like this. Apply LiveEffect to a group item Save it as FXG in Illustrator CS6 Open the FXG in a text editor and examine the area around <ai:LiveEffect>   I have featured your Live Effect functions and Live Effect Helper in my blog post “[Summary] Illustrator Script Development Documents”.

ご回答ありがとうございます。そう，オプション自体が無いのですよね。   調べたところPSDとTIFFが一時ファイルとして利用できそうでした。現状Electron(node.js)が全体の進行を担当しているので，Photoshopにも発注可能です。これでいけます。   ただなるべくIllustrator単体で済ませたいので，もう少しねばって回答を募集したいと思います。   例えば（これは今考えた嘘なので信じないでほしいのですが）こんな切り口の知見はありませんか。 • IllustratorはPNGをすべてWeb用だと思い込み，sRGBに変換したうえでプロファイルを削除するので，以降はsRGBとして扱えば良い。メタデータにsRGBの名前だけ書き込んでおけば，それを理解する画像処理エンジンもある • 実はPNGオプションは環境設定で制御できるため，setRealPreferenceでICCプロファイルを埋め込めるようになる もう1度書きますがこれはフィクションです。 ...

Hello pixxxelschubser,   I'll offer a solution other than art brushes: you can use Live Paint as a pathfinder for strokes. /** * @File expand a dashed stroke * https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/js-action-split-or-break-a-dashed-line-into-separate-real-lines-by-script/td-p/12614309 * @version 1.0.0 * @author sttk3.com * @copyright © 2022 sttk3.com */ //@target 'illustrator' (function() { if(app.documents.length <= 0) {return ;} var doc = app.documents[0] ; // only one selection is allowed var sel = doc.selection ; var messageInvalidSelection = 'Select one dashed stroke and execute this script.' ; if(sel.length != 1) { alert(messageInvalidSelection) ; return ; } // terminate when selected item is not a path, not a dashed stroke, or has a fill var originalPath = sel[0] ; if(!/^PathItem$/.test(originalPath.constructor.name)) { alert(messageInvalidSelection) ; return ; } if(originalPath.strokeDashes.length <= 0) { alert(messageInvalidSelection) ; return ; } if(originalPath.filled) { alert('This script should be execute after the fill is removed.') ; return ; } // generate a unique color var tempSpot = doc.spots.add() ; var tempColor = new SpotColor() ; tempColor.spot = tempSpot ; tempColor.tint = 100 ; try { var pathfinderGroup = originalPath.layer.groupItems.add() ; pathfinderGroup.move(originalPath, ElementPlacement.PLACEBEFORE) ; var maskWidth = originalPath.strokeWidth + 1 ; // object to fill dash var dashPath = originalPath.duplicate(pathfinderGroup, ElementPlacement.PLACEATEND) ; dashPath.strokeWidth = maskWidth ; // object to fill gap var gapPath = originalPath.duplicate(pathfinderGroup, ElementPlacement.PLACEATEND) ; gapPath.strokeWidth = maskWidth ; gapPath.strokeDashes = [] ; gapPath.strokeColor = tempColor ; // leave fill only at gaps doc.selection = [pathfinderGroup] ; app.executeMenuCommand('OffsetPath v22') ; // Outline Stroke app.executeMenuCommand('Live Pathfinder Subtract') ; app.executeMenuCommand('expandStyle') ; // Expand Appearance app.executeMenuCommand('compoundPath') ; // Compound Path Make // remove gaps of originalPath by live paint originalPath.strokeDashes = [] ; originalPath.selected = true ; app.executeMenuCommand('Make Planet X') ; // Live Paint Make app.executeMenuCommand('Expand Planet X') ; // Live Paint Expand app.executeMenuCommand('ungroup') ; app.redraw() ; // remove gapPath var tempGroups = doc.selection ; var itemColor ; for(var i = tempGroups.length - 1 ; i >= 0 ; i--) { itemColor = tempGroups[i].pathItems[0].fillColor ; if((itemColor.constructor.name == 'SpotColor') && (itemColor.spot == tempSpot)) { tempGroups[i].remove() ; break ; } } } catch(e) { alert(e) ; } finally { tempSpot.remove() ; } })() ;   ...

  • アピアランスで線を追加し，破線(線分25mm, 間隔25mm)にします(以降これをガイド破線と呼びます)。すると元の線の変形に25mmごとの線が追従するので，25mmの倍数にするための試行錯誤が楽になります   • ［アピアランスを分割］し，ガイド破線に［透明部分を分割］または［パスのアウトライン］をかけます。するとガイド破線がクローズパスになるので，それと元の線との交点がキリのいい長さになります   • クローズパスになったガイド破線と元の線に別々の色を指定し［ライブペイントを作成］します。ライブペイントでは線も塗りも色の境目で区分されます。ライブペイント選択ツールを用いて，区分ごとの選択や色変更が可能です。また，拡張すると元の線に区分ごとの交点ができます。はさみツールなどで切りやすい状態です   • 曲線の両端を10mmづつ分割するのも応用でできます。アピアランスで線を追加し，破線(線分20mm, 間隔最大値352.777mm, コーナーやパス先端に破線の先端を整列)にします。すると両端から10mm分のガイド破線ができるので，同じ要領で分割すれば完了です ...
