Adobe Release XD v55 today... Improvements & bug fixes only! WTF? I guess it’s time to learn Figma.

You can get a visual representation of any Regex from one of theses web site: https://lehollandaisvolant.net/tout/tools/regex/ or https://www.debuggex.com/ They are not fully compatible with all the InDesign GREP flavor, but for a visual guy like me I found them pretty useful.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 29, 2022

Peter, look how beautiful your REGEX is !! 🙂

I just did a quick test with an old version of teh first Photoshop CC (when Generator was introduced) and the Layer Comp name is not used to generate files, only the layers name. I’m curious when was this added?

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 27, 2022

We learn each day! In which version of Photoshop does the saved Layer Comps can be use by Generator to generate images? It’s not even mentionned in the Help section about Generator. I have just discovered it. Pretty usefull!

@Chaitanya21936374hmkf There is aslo another issue when placing ID content in XD via a CC Library, the right edge of the content is clipped and a pixel or two is missing.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 23, 2022

Thanks for confirming it’s not supposed to be like that. It’s more than an inconvience, it’s a nightmare. Does the content in the Library (idms), is converted to PDF or SVG when placed in XD? Where can I follow up about this issue?

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 22, 2022

When I bring InDesign content that I have save into a CC Library in XD, the object always scale to 8192 pixels in the longest side of the element. Can someone know what’s the logic of this? In what format the ID content is converted and place in XD? Thanks!

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 12, 2022

Thanks Dan! Voted... Only Auto Width text object scale for now. Hopefully this will change in future.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 12, 2022

Is there a way to resize a Fixed Size text object and have the text actually resize? Right now only the text frame is resized. Holding Shift, or turning off responsive resize don't make it. Text always stay the same size.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 12, 2022

What are the starter plan? We see Trial 7 days, Single app or Full CC subscription only. https://www.adobe.com/products/xd/pricing/individual.html

Easy! In an artboard, each group need to be exported to .PNG with the artboard bounding (even if transparent) and not the artworks bounding box. My workaround now is to include a no color rectangle the size of the artboard inside each groups. Then enable Export on each group.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 02, 2022

Hello lovely community! Is there a way to export all groups in a doc to PNG but at the size of the artboard instead of artworks bounds?

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 01, 2022

Absolutely need this!

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Sep 01, 2022

Is it true? There is no way to force strokes dash line to adjusting lengths and spaces to fit so we get a decent dashed stroke corner. Tell me there a way to do it. PS: Figma is doing it automaticly...

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 31, 2022

The strokes are not outlined at all...

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 31, 2022

When a path in XD has inside or outside stoke and are pasted in Illustrator, the results are two path. When a path in AI has inside or outside stoke and are pasted in XD, the results are one path with fill/stroke Why? and Is there a way to fix that.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 19, 2022

Thanks to Keith Gilbert!

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 19, 2022

Download the Setup script by Keith Gilbert at https://gilbertconsulting.com/scripts. You will find a way to do that inside of it starting at line 304.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 18, 2022

You’re right... My bad!

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 18, 2022

Folks! @Eugene Tyson is asking for changing imported PAGE of the PDF. Not the Layers visibility.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 18, 2022

I don’t see how... You’ll probably need a script that silently unembeded the file, display the import option, than embed the file.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 02, 2022

Script labels can be used to determine which objects to copy/paste. But you still need to manually enter them (unless the content come from some sort of a data merge process. Scripts can be done. Never encounter any that does this specifically. If you need to do this often, it’s probably worth paying someone to write it to your specific needs.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 02, 2022

You will need a script for that and probably a complex one that will pick the objects selected on a page. Alternatvely, if you don’t have many of theses to do you can use the Content Collector tool, to grab the content you want to paste into teh others document with blank pages manually added first.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Aug 02, 2022

What does this means? one object any single page Do you want to create individuals pages for each simngle object? You also wrote I need to copy and paste some of them. So does this means you want to chooses witch object your first want to copy, than paste them into single document? What are you trying to acheived exactly?

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Jul 29, 2022

You need to wrap the OR inside a ( ) like so: (\bX\b)([~<]{1,}]|[ ]{2,})(\bY\b) But it could be reduced to just this (two regulars spaces before the +): \bX(~<+| +)Y\b

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Jul 29, 2022

You’re using Datamerge right? You can export each 'Poster Design' layers only to individual PDF and add a them in your CSV. So InDesign will place them by itself. Or you can find someone that can write you a script that can run Datamerge and also turn on off visibility of layers. Don’t expect it to be free.

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Jul 28, 2022

Corrected script [Thanks Peter] below: (function () { var stories = app.documents[0].stories.everyItem().getElements(); var ix; for (var i = stories.length-1; i >= 0; i--) { while (stories[i].textFrames.length > 0) { ix = stories[i].textFrames[-1].parent.index; stories[i].textFrames[-1].texts[0].move (LocationOptions.AFTER, stories[i].insertionPoints[ix]); stories[i].textFrames[-1].locked = false; stories[i].textFrames[-1].remove(); } } }());

Jean-Claude Tremblay · ‎Jul 28, 2022

We also need to replace this: stories.insertionPoints[ix]); by this: stories[i].insertionPoints[ix]);
