Is it possible to write a script that would change the triangles to circles?

I have an Excel file that outlines a scatterplot graph - using a logarithmic scale. Because it is not possible to create a logarithmic graph in Illustrator, I imported the graph in Excel to PDF. However, each data point is a triangle, and I would use circles that I created using OBJECT > GRAPH > DESIGN. Is there an easy way to replace the triangles with these circles?

If you need to see the current file, let me know how to fix it.

Thank you.

I don't have Excel here...

The place could be a clipping mask. Maybe you can only select all clipping masks and remove them (using select > object > clipping mask)

But it can also be that this clipping mask is crucial for a reason any. Importing PDF you will often get a lot of clipping masks

  • is it possible to write a script that will display the script files folder in the tree

    is it possible to write a script that will display the script files folder in the tree

    Yes :-)

    In your previous post, someone suggested to search for the file "SnpCreateTreeview.jsx", because it would just be the asked.

    The script can be found here, just accept the EULA and download the example scripts of Bridge CS3. (For some reason it is not in CS4 samples because as far as I know)

    Here's a version with small changes, it is up to you to point the script in the folder 'root' right, because this is, needless to C: on PC:

    Its use


      
      
      

        
    1. Run the extract in the ExtendScript Toolkit (see Readme.txt).
         
    2. Enlarge / reduce the list items
         
    3. Check the JavaScript Console to see the events captured by the elements of the TreeView.
       

    Description


     
     

    Creates two hierarchical list of TreeView items. One is static, with a fixed set of point
    nodes that you can expand and collapse. The other is dynamic; Item nodes are added and removed as
    the need for a view of the file system.
     
     

    The list items in the TreeView control to display the folders and files custom images.  When you add items to the
    TreeView list, type 'article' is used for elements of the leaf and 'node' to the elements of the container.
     
     

    Dynamic TreeView captures events in two different ways. It uses callback functions to capture the
    node to expand and collapse events and selection changes and also registers an event listener to
    capture double-click events.

  • Is it possible to put a password that would prevent the program turn accidentally closed?

    We have a person in our laboratory which is spirit very scatter. Several times he wanted to reduce Labview program running, but doesn't actually not paid attention and accidentally closed it by clicking X instead of _, thus negating the whole experience. When the program was closed he didn't ask if he wanted to save or if he didn't know that he wanted to close it. Is it possible to put a password that would prevent the program turn accidentally closed?

    You have two options.

    1. You can hide the X in total in the properties of VI.  Go to the appearance of the window, click Customize, and then uncheck the option to allow the user to close the window.  You would need another method, for example a file-> Quit or exit option button.
    2. If you use a version higher than the Base, you can use a structure of the event to capture the narrow window? event.  This will allow you to ask the user to confirm to get out and do something else required.  If the user cancels, or you need to cancel, you have the abaility to cancel the event.

    Hello

    My friend works on an action, who would edit images by removing the white background color. However, there are a lot of images with transparent background or after some other actions have no selection who had to be removed. And now he is facing simple problem, simple remove this feature brings a lot of table and the error Stops.

    The ideal solution to this problem would be if it would ba a script who could remove the selection and ignore stops as no selection and transparent.

    Can anyone help with this one?

    Settle into the Photoshop scripts forum.

    With a script, you would just put your code in a try/catch block. This intercept errors such as the selection of a transparent area and do not stop your script:

    try{
         //your code here
         }
    catch(e){
         //either no code, or code to do something if you get an error.

  • Need help to write a script that opens files, removes layers and sous-calques

    Hey all,.

    I'm a noob to the community of script, and what I try to do is file edit commands that share the same names of layers and sublayers. I have a few questions that would be incredibly useful if I could have answered.

    I'm not sure how to define a script too call out of the layers that have been created without script. I need to create a variable for the existing layers and leave the script to know what their names are in the files?

    For example, I have three files which have each layer named 'cutlayer', 'trimlayer', 'fold' and 'work '. I need to write a script that opens three files, deletes the layer 'fold' of each file, and then move the layer "trimlayer" in his own sublayer in 'work' (the base layer can be on the top so reorganization sublayers is not necessary to worry about something). I do not understand how to write the script because I couldn't find examples in the documentation for the script provided on the adobe website which has worked with existing files.

    It's my shot at what I'm trying to do, with English fill in the blanks of what I do not know how to script. If anyone can help me understand this point, I would really appreciate it!

    app.documents.openDlg (prompt, filter, MultiSelect);  the user opens the associated files

    If (documents.length > 0) //run the script through each document individually

    {

    sourceDoc = activeDocument;

    delete the "fold" sourceDoc layer

    move the "trimlayer" in the layer "work."

    remove the underlayment 'path' of layer "work."

    Run the script through each document

    Save the new file name folder in the new parallel to the current folder on the hard disk

    Go out and spend in each document until there is no more

    }

    create new document

    Place documents published in different layers in the new document, with a distance between them, optimize the space on a 51 "x 51" work plan, using as little of the artboard as possible. "

    All comments are things basically, I do not know how and am trying to figure out how to do, so if anyone has a second to explain some of these things, I would really appreciate it!

    Thanks again!

    I know it of very frustrating when his apprenticeship and things don't go as planned, but understand that it is quite confusing as it is and do not add more confusion to the mix by using other tools than those provided. I mean JSLint, it might be useful with GENERAL javascript syntax, but Adobe's Javascript implementation is another animal, or another language, always JavaScript, but intended to be run by its own engine. JSLint has no idea what "layers", or "pathItems" are, it will trigger errors when he sees the objects, it does not recognize.

  • Several scripts that run at the same time?

    Is it possible to have multiple scripts running successfully at the same time?

    For now if I start a second script while one is still ongoing, the other to be completed successfully, but one stops. This seems to be because one is so more the active document, once the other opens so cannot continue.

    Is there another way to anything like that script so that multiples can operate independently at the same time? You might wonder why I don't want to run both at the same time and not just wait, but I install an asp.net web do front end and have problems if two people, click on the button around the same time.

    I'm guessing this won't be possible and I'll have to look for ways to achieve this in asp.net instead and sort queued requests so you will have to wait longer if the script is already running?

    I'm guessing this won't be possible and I'll have to look for ways to achieve this in asp.net instead and sort queued requests so you will have to wait longer if the script is already running?

    It is correct. PS script interface is single-threaded, so you'll need requests queued.

  • Looking for Advanced Action script that will close the project

    Hi all

    It seems so simple but I can't seem to understand. Does anyone know of scripts that will cause the project to close when the user clicks a button? I have a project built in 6 Captivate that is set to close its 'End of the project' preferences and has multiple options of branches. I want to have a button to END that will close the entire project. The best that I got is simply apply an action of 'CONTINUE' on the last slide, but since this slide also includes a button that jumps to another branch, the blade simply crashes when you click the END button.

    Any thoughts?

    Krista

    You can use a 'Execute JavaScript' action with the script below:

    window.close();
    

    OR

    window.top.close();
    

    What script you use depends on how your LMS launches your course.  If it is in the main window, use Window.Close ().  If it is in a window child, then window.top.close ().  If you are not sure, then a little experience by downloading a course of a slide with two buttons.  The first button must execute Window.Close (); and the 2nd button must execute window.top.close ();.  When your LMS is launching the course, try the buttons and see one that works.

    F12 (Web Preview) will not give you a solid test since your LMS can launch your course differently... it's the kind of thing that should be tested in your LMS to be sure it works.
