Hello @wnwka, Could you provide a few more details, like the version of Illustrator when you started having this problem, the current version of Illustrator installed, and the system report (https://adobe.ly/42hxvmO), so I can check this with the team? Looking forward to hearing from you.

I know this is quite an old thread but does anyone know how to get rid of this stupid "Generative Expand currently lacks support for raster artwork 'error' every time i make a new art board in illustrator? I'm (unfortunately) working with the ARM version of illustrator on a windows surface.
Are you using it on a raster image?

Please add your vote on Uservoice as suggested above. That's what counts for the developers.

This is what I was about to post. You need to include the relevant CPP. If you ever get an `Undefined symbol` that means you are missing code, which is either a library or a .cpp file.

Thank you! That actually worked! (Strange that it's the other way around for using Illustrator.)

This exact same thing was an issue a few versions back (maybe a year ago). And now this bug is back! Very frustrating as going in and out of outline view is part of my fast workflow. However, I discovered it's relatively easy to downgrade to earlier versions in Creative Cloud. I now have downgraded to 26.03 and it works fine again. (The only time I have used the Creative Cloud app to anything meaningful).

I'm sure I installed the right Acrobat. I just want a lightweight pdf viewer, I don't need > 1gb bloatware for that. The setting "Show me messages when I launch Adobe Acrobat Reader" is unchecked. I still keep getting this anoying message unfortunately.

The issue with python, I found that when instaled python doesn't check the box in „Add python.exe to path“. When made a new instal, and check that, everything resolved.

I have not managed to make the template work at all. And the sample code projects are all too tied up in a big project structure to easily rip them out for a stand alone project. For new projects my starting point have been the HelloWorld plug-in described in the Getting Started Guide on page 28.

There are many ways to sharpen a corner. It also depends on how the path is shaped. What probably has happened here is that the tracer has added a couple of extra anchor points where there should only be one. Use the direct selection tool (white arrow, shortcut [A]) to examine the paths and move anchor points. If you see anchor points that are not needed you can delete them using the pen tool [P]. When you are sure you only have one anchor point in that corner you should check that the anchor point type is "corner" and not "smooth" by selecting it and if needed converting it to "corner" in the properties panel. In some cases this might also be solved by dragging the corner widget for that specific corner down to zero. Or you could delete that part of the logo entierly and redraw it using the pen tool. All this takes some practise and I would recommend watching a basic tutorial on how to edit paths in Illustrator.

Thanks @superpanic I mode some change in your code and I got the result as I required . so your code is working well and the U shapes for me also . ASErr output_art_file::PV_DrawUShape(AIRealPoint thePoint, const AIReal &theScale) { //AIRealPoint thePoint = thePoints[2]; // the following suites should be loaded before calling this function if (!sAIArt) return -1; if (!sAIPath) return -1; ASErr error = kNoErr; AIArtHandle path; AIPathSegment segments[5]; // Create new art, we will fill it with points below. error = sAIArt->NewArt(kPathArt, kPlaceAboveAll, NULL, &path); if (error) goto error; // the U shape has 5 points error = sAIPath->SetPathSegmentCount(path, 5); // draw a U with it's curved butt centered at &thePoint: // # point 0 // upper left point of the U (starting point) segments[0].p.h = thePoint.h - 2 * theScale; segments[0].p.v = thePoint.v + 1 * theScale; // straight line segments[0].in = segments[0].out = segments[0].p; segments[0].corner = true; // # point 1 // mid left point of the U segments[1].p.h = thePoint.h - 1 * theScale; segments[1].p.v = thePoint.v + 1 * theScale; // straight line segments[1].in = segments[1].out = segments[1].p; segments[1].corner = true; // # point 2 // center bottom point of the U's butt segments[2].p.h = thePoint.h; // center position, should not scale segments[2].p.v = thePoint.v; // center position, should not scale // set handles for the curved line segments[2].in.h = thePoint.h; segments[2].in.v = thePoint.v + 1 * theScale ; segments[2].out.h = thePoint.h; segments[2].out.v = thePoint.v - 1 * theScale; segments[2].corner = false; // not a corner! // # point 3 // mid right point of the U segments[3].p.h = thePoint.h - 1 * theScale; segments[3].p.v = thePoint.v - 1 * theScale; // straight line segments[3].in = segments[3].out = segments[3].p; segments[3].corner = true; // # point 4 // upper right point of the U (end point) segments[4].p.h = thePoint.h - 2 * theScale; segments[4].p.v = thePoint.v - 1 * theScale; // straight line segments[4].in = segments[4].out = segments[4].p; segments[4].corner = true; error = sAIPath->SetPathSegments(path, 0, 5, segments); if (error) goto error; error: return error; } so it's gives me result like this Thanks.

Hi again Rick! I did not know this. I have not worked on the problem of making plugins scriptable yet, but it is an interresting topic indeed! :^)

I wonder if it would help to parse the PDF portion of the .ai file, that is, if the file was saved with PDF data. Even if you could, text is badly broken up in PDF so it would be an ambitious undertaking. I've seen scripts that extract text from PDFs, which may work in .ai files. Best of luck with this!

I'm working on a simple plug-in (C++ both mac/windows) that draw x and + icons as annotations to mark all selected paths start and endpoint. It works fine when selecting art objects. But while dragging an art object I'm not able to update the annotations, it is only updated after the move is completed. Is it possible to get notification updates while the user is dragging the selected art, to know when to redraw the annotations? In the image below to the right you can see that the native Illustrator annotations are updated fine and move along with the cursor, but my annotations stay in place, and are updated only when the mouse button is released. My plug-in is not implemented as a tool, but as a general feature.

Great! I see if I search for "BBAccumRotation +sdk" it narrows it down much better. Now people searching for info on BBAccumRotation with the SDK can find relevant info more easily! Thanks!

Using AINotifierSuite, can I get a notification when the user start to move (drag with mouse) the selected art? I have tried to register notifications for kAIArtSelectionChangedNotifier, but it is only triggered after the user have finished moving the selected art object. Is there another technique to use maybe?
