Apply random color to the Group of objects

Hello everyone, thanks for taking the time to help.

Here's my problem... Let's say I have 600 different objects in illustrator (just small circles with a fill color, neither trait) and 6 different colors that should be these circles. This means, that I care about a 100 to be a color, 100, another color, etc... Is there anyway to select all 600 and just tell Illustrator I have these 6 colors and I want to apply to the selected random objects?

Let me know if it's confusing... If all goes well, there is an option for this. I don't want to manually apply...

Thank you!

Ok. I have it. Had to modify the script a little more.

As I wrote in the previous post, this is done with a random number generator, and is not exactly what you want. But if you want to play with the script, here is the modified version:

Make sure you do the undeletable shades-[no] and [Recording] - the first two in the palette/Panel.

  • Application of effects to the Group of objects in a floating frame - fail.

    Hi, I do not know if someone has encountered this... I have a group of images (rating music, so black on white in fact) in a floating frame.

    I have a textured background, and I want to knock out the white in the pictures to let the background show through. Effect of obscuring should work, and on "static" images (not in a scrolling frame), it is very good. But I tried to apply the effect to the framework itself; in the Group of objects; the individual objects. All the methods of good air in InDesign, but when previewing the content viewer, I can see the effect didn't, uh, indeed. This project is directed to iOS, and I'm assuming that the content viewer gives a fairly accurate glimpse?

    And I don't want to get into the clipping paths or alpha channels, but if there is a better way to knock out white, I would be very grateful for the entry. Screenshots show (left), InDesign Content Viewer (right). Thank you very much!

    But I want other options...

    There is no all.

    Illustrator and MS-Office share not all the graphics features of construction at the file level. There is no universal edit-ability between the two.

    .. which is the best export (eps, emf, or svg), then insert a vector file into PowerPoint?

    If your Illustrator illustration is vector of 100% and contains no live effects, complex gradients, blends, etc., the first thing to try is copy > paste special > enhanced metafile.

    Otherwise, SPE may work, or you can use the pixelation in PNG. Personally, I do not consider export raster format Illustrator to be a stable workflow method, so I'd be inclined to use Photoshop as an intermediate step: Illustrator > Save As PDF > open in Photoshop > save in PNG. Just my preference.

  • How to choose the same color in the text and objects?

    Hello

    I have a document with about 30000 objects include text, small filled circles and paths between the circles (see small screenshot attached).

    Capture.PNG

    I need to separate into groups based on color in order to later completely redraw. I would like to be able to select all elements with the same color but the problem being that the railways have only line-color, the only circles fill color and text only-color of the text. I can't seem to find the correct command in "identical". Any ideas of how I could do?

    Thank you very much!

    PER DAY

    more precisely what you're asking is done in the following way:
    Since you have only 3 types of select:
    First set up your magic wand by double-clicking on it in the tools Panel and configure it to contours and funds, also you can bump the tolerance up to about 75. now select your text object , and then use select even--> fill color, this should get your filled objects also, then with the magic wand tool, shift click the same traits in the selection of color and you should have all 3.  Now put it in the layer that you want, save the selection, there are other more obscure options.

    However if you just divide it into groups... try this:

    go to your layers panel and make a layer for each color

    use the same for each type.  for example, select same line color for all similar objects outline color, and then drag the color "block" in the layers panel to the appropriate layer.  Repeat for every thing.

    Finally, if you just want to change the colors on the fly, for something so huge, try edit--> edit color--> work Recolor

    Just play with it, you will see only a few colors, double click on the box, the arrow worms with color in it and (with illustrations to redefine colors in the verified corner) you will see change as you select the new color., in

    I am interested in the most direct way, if anyone knows, something which would, in one stroke, select objects containing color wherever it is.

  • Random colors are too dark. Questions on the color boxes

    Hey all,.

    I'm trying to change the color of the plots on a graph of mixed signals remotely using the 'color box' which works very well. However, I'll also put squares of color to a color at random when the program starts first of all which is where my problem lies.

    What I am doing, is that I have a random number generator pumping a number then I multiply the number by 10000000, just to give me some brighter than the dark colors, and then I wired to I'm defining the random color on the color box control. The problem is that even if it does not the decent colors some colors produced are quite dark and difficult to see on the graph of mixed signals.

    I could make the graphic background a different color if I have to in order to see a majority of the colors coming out, but I would rather that have the colors come out on the side that is bright and colorful.

    So I have two questions for you guys and girls:

    1) how the colors of the colorbox get determined using the unsigned int 32?

    Such an example of why I'm confused, is that the number I had is 5726420 from the random number generator (+ multiplies), but under the control of colorbox RGB value is R:87 G:96 B:212. Why is this?

    2) there is any type of algorithm out there that someone did which can produce random values that will give the kind of colors neony? or whatever it is semi bright indeed?

    Any help is very appreciated!

  • Group of objects added with JDAPI webutil - adjust the block webutil sequence?

    Hi all

    I use the JDAPI to the subclass in the Group of objects webutil in forms in an application. Annoyingly, the webutil block becomes the first block on the form - which means on some forms is displayed at startup. Is anyway (programming using JDAPI) that I can move the block to the end of the red list after that I have a subclass in the Group of the object?

    TIA
    Steve

    Hello

    move

    Sub move (JdapiObject nextObject)

    Rearranges an object with respect to its siblings in the collection it belongs. This is similar to by dragging and dropping in the form of movement of a block Builder in a list. This method is a way to do the same thing programmatically. By example, if you want a block appear immediately before Block5 in a list, you pass the object representing Block5 nextObject argument.

    Pass NULL to this method to move the object to the end of the list. If the specified object and the next_object do not share the same owner, or do not have the same type, the method throws an exception.

    You cannot use this method to move objects between the parents. For example, it cannot be used to move an element from one block to the next. If you want to move an object from one parent to the other, you will have to do something like:

    to be positioned before 'itmB' bulk 'itmA'
    "blkB" (when "itmA" is in another block)

    Copy itmA in a new parent (blkB) using the same name
    Element newItmA = itmA.clone (blkB, itmA.getName ());
    newItmA.move (itmB); move a new element compared to itmB
    itmA.destroy (); Delete the original object
    itmA = newItmA;

    Parameters:
    nextObject - the object that the object specified must be moved.
    Throws:
    JdapiException - if you try to move an object next to an object that does not share the same owner or not is not of the same type.

  • Cannot apply pipette color samples to type

    This is a strange problem I experience with Illustrator CC release 2015.2.0.

    In previous versions, I used to be able to select or direct select type (text box) and sample a color of this type using the eyedropper tool.

    When I try to do that in the latest version, the chart suggests that the type is a new color, however it is not change/display. It will change if I select characters (selected text). This means that if I want to do the update of type group, several text boxes to the times or hidden, I have to dig the content until I can select the text. It's a lot of work!

    What I found a group called 'type' (this is when the text box is selected) shows the new color - in the nuances and the appearance Panel. When he select text/characters, the color chart and the appearance Panel to refer to a new group called characters. If I change the color of the characters, the color will update. Follow me?


    So, I ask, does someone knows how to make the color of the group 'type' to replace the color of the group "character"?



    EXAMPLE:

    This image shows what the appearance Panel call group of 'type '. Selected in this way, the text will not taste the blue.

    Screen Shot 2016-01-19 at 10.53.42.png


    This picture shows that calls 'character' appearance group of panels. Selected in this way, the text will enjoy the blue.

    Screen Shot 2016-01-19 at 10.54.07.png

    I can reproduce it exactly, and it seems to be normal behavior. You have an extra padding added to the characters that should not be there, in addition to fill already applied to the characters. Simply remove the fill and the text should allow you to use the pipette with her again.

    Unfortunately when I do that, it removes the type too (not only the fill color)

    Which is impossible... you do like the video? Perhaps that the characters are colored white, and you just can't see them once you remove the extra padding...

  • Option of range & ASA 5510 - a group of objects

    Hello

    I have 3 ASA 5510 s; two of them are in production and the 3rd is new. I inherited two in production and was trying to set up this 3rd by using some of the existing network object-group statements.  The problem is that when I try to create a range of IP addresses in one of the groups of object; the range command is not available. One of the extracted statements from one of the ASAs production: network of the REMOTE object
    range 62.77.130.14 62.77.130.208

    The two ASAs have the same image of worm (asa842-k8).  Is there something I'm missing to enable the option in the range on the ASA News?

    Thanks in advance,

    ~ sK

    Hello

    Are you sure that the ASA News started the new 8.4 (2) software?

    There are

    • object-group network

      • accepts networks and addresses of host under it
    • network of the object
      • accept addresses from subnet, range and host under it

    Configuring "network object" came available in 8.3 software. Before that in the software 8.2 and earlier than the 'object-group network' (and other types of groups of objects") exist.

    Maybe you have several images start on the ASA News and its actually the old software still boot?

    What does the ' running shoe see the?

    If it lists both the command for old and new software then delete the old "system start" command, save the configuration and restart.

    I hope that the above information was useful
