Pathfinder will unite all the objects on each layer

I wonder if anyone can help me with the script, which is unite mode form via pathfinder on all the objects on each layer.

I manually activate a layer, pressing ctrl + a, and then clicking the shape mode button unit. Then, the layers are over 50 then, making him the great peace of time.

Piggyback off pixxxel schubser

function MergeAllLayers() {
    // exit early if there are no files open
    if( !app.documents.length ) return;
    var doc = app.activeDocument;

    // clear selection
    doc.selection = null;

    // loop through all layers
    var layers = doc.layers;
    for( var i = 0, ii = layers.length; i < ii; i++ ) {

        // select everything on the current layer
        layers[i].hasSelectedArtwork = true;

        app.executeMenuCommand("group");
        app.executeMenuCommand("Live Pathfinder Add");
        app.executeMenuCommand("expandStyle");  

        // clear selection
        doc.selection = null;
    }
}

MergeAllLayers();

Equal to true, the definition of the hasSelectedArtwork layer property is a fun thing to select the entire document on a layer, you've just got to make sure to disable any other settings first.

  • Help!  All the objects on a layer are framed in red

    I'm in the middle of a picture and all of a sudden all the objects on a layer are framed in red.  These aren't the stroke, but rather it is as if I am the display mode overview and overview at the same time.  I searched the forums, but I can't find anything that looks like what I see.Illustrator Outlines.jpgExample2.jpg

    You use maybe plug-ins? Which?

    Is one of the layers has a appearance which causes the stroke to appear? You can see in the target symbol

  • Can I move all the objects again selected layer without clicking hundreds of layer bars?

    I'm working on a complex illustrator file generated by GIS software. He gave me all kinds of groups of clip & road clip - what I really need, it's just to put all the same coloured polygons on the layer of a high level (unfortunately I can't draw all of my polygons in a group because illustrator doesn't pull these objects out of their existing clipping groups, and the card gets screwed completely upward if I release the clipping masks. With simple cards I have no problem Direct by selecting all of the polygons, I want, selecting their layers in the layers panel, then moving them to a new layer. This card is too complex, because there are hundreds of objects and hundreds of corresponding layers (they are not contiguous, or else I could simply click can be done with it).


    I used select > same > fill type to select all the polygons, I want that on a single layer, but I really hope that I don't have to select all the layers for each item one by one before I can move them to a new higher level layer. Does anyone know if there is a way to moving all the objects in a new layer selected without having to actually click all the layers in the Panel? Completely open to the alternative routes to my desired result!


    Thank you very much.

    Of course, after making the selection drag selection (to the right of the layer) icon on the desired layer. This will move any selected layer to the new layer.

    Hi jakenny,

    You may need to replace an ink or toner cartridge. Check the status information in the queue for low ink or toner messages. If the printer has a status or display area, you can also check for low ink or toner messages on the printer itself. For more information, see change an ink or toner cartridge and view the print queue.

I make sure I have go through EACH of them and modify them to reflect the change in the column of the table. And still, it extends over several patterns that point to it.

    I can't forget all the objects. Is there any one place to find it?

  • I don't see Smart Guides around all the objects on the artboard even if the guides are checked in view

    Hello

    First of all, I don't pretend to be some illustrator expert but I have a good understanding of the functions of Adobe Illustrator key.

    However, when I went to design a logo yesterday, I don't see smart guides (blue lines, see below with all selected items) around all the objects on the artboard even if the guides are checked in order. I do not expect the controls on each being showing unless they are selected, but I do that I expect to see the blue line itself.


    Picture1.png

    I contacted the Adobe Illustrator Chat but really, they do not seem to have a clue and seemed to be intentionally misunderstanding me despite the fact that I sent this image. They were also quite rude!

    In any case, I'm now desperate so someone here can help me please.

    Thank you very much

    Mike

    PS I looked everywhere online for a solution and tried some of those suggested but without success.

    You may not see an unselected object with no line or fill in preview mode (this is why it is called overview).

    You can select it when you don't have fill and stroke in the tools Panel and choose: select > same > background & contour.

  • Release of anchor all the objects/text images

    Dear all,

    It's my 1st question on AC (Adobe Community), so I'll explain what I need here in details and excuse me my little or even none experienced in coding, especially in Javascript.

    I have a book with many INDD files, these files have a lot of images and objects and text blocks are anchored to the main text area.

    I searched on AC for the way to free him from all my anchored object and the main text block text block. so I found the average script.

    I found her name "ReleaseAnyAnchor" created by 'Dave Saunders' to release the anchored object (graphics, text, else) but one by one. and it will take too much time to free myself from all the objects on the book. (the Script code is below)

    //DESCRIPTION: Release Inline & Anchored Items
    //Written by Dave Saunders, released on indesignsecrets.com
    
    
    (function() {
      if (app.documents.length > 0 && // must be a document open
      app.selection.length == 1 && // selection must be of single item
      app.selection[0].parent instanceof Character) { // selection must be anchored
      if (parseFloat(app.version) < 6) {
      releaseMe(app.selection[0]);
      } else {
      app.doScript(releaseMe, undefined, app.selection[0], UndoModes.entireScript, "Release Any Anchor");
      }
      } else {
      alert("Please select an inline item.");
      }
    
    
      function releaseMe(myPI) {
      var yePage = findPage(myPI);
      var startBounds = myPI.geometricBounds;
      myPI.anchoredObjectSettings.anchoredPosition = AnchorPosition.anchored;
      myPI.anchoredObjectSettings.releaseAnchoredObject();
      if (yePage != null) {
      myPI.move(yePage);
      }
      myPI.move([startBounds[1], startBounds[0]]);
      }
    
    
      function findPage(theObj) {
      if (theObj.hasOwnProperty("baseline")) {
      theObj = theObj.parentTextFrames[0];
      }
      while (theObj != null) {
      if (theObj.hasOwnProperty("parentPage")) return theObj.parentPage;
      var whatIsIt = theObj.constructor;
      switch (whatIsIt) {
      case Page : return theObj;
      case Character : theObj = theObj.parentTextFrames[0]; break;
      case Cell : theObj = theObj.insertionPoints[0].parentTextFrames[0]; break;
      case Note : ; case Footnote : theObj = theObj.storyOffset; break;
      case Application : return null;
      }
      if (theObj == null) return null;
      theObj = theObj.parent;
      }
      return theObj
      } // end findPage
    
    
    }());
    


    also, I found another script which release all of the graphic objects, but not objects of text frame. (I get it from AC, but I remember exactly the place where.)


    if(app.documents.length!=0) {
        var ad = app.activeDocument;
        var pgit = ad.pageItems;
        var pgitlg = pgit.length;
        var objprocessed = 0;
        if(pgitlg !=0)
        {
            for(i=0; i<pgitlg; i++)
            {
                if(pgit[i].getElements()[0].constructor.name == "TextFrame")
                {
                    var tfg = pgit[i].allGraphics;
                    var tfglg = tfg.length;
                    for(j=0; j<tfglg; j++)
                    {
                        var rec = tfg[j].parent;
                        rec.anchoredObjectSettings.releaseAnchoredObject();
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
    


    all codes work well for me, but I need to try to merge or make a new code [as I mentioned that I don't have experiences in JS, so I do not know how to compile a new code that do the 2 steps of the 2 codes.]


    my request is, could you please help me to do this new code, or merge to compile a new code in the new file.


    I saw this topic releasing objects anchored and want to make a new script.


    Please try to help me as soon as POSSIBLE because I need this script to all my object anchored to begin working on the output file.


    I need the code works on any version of INDESIGN.


    Thanks guys, waiting for you.


    AMR

    AHA. If you need test whether a line is an anchor. If this is the case, use. releaseAnchoredObject(), if it is not, the simplest is to make an anchor, then release it:

    if (pageItems[i].parent instanceof Character) {
        if (pageItems[i].anchoredObjectSettings.anchoredPosition !== AnchorPosition.ANCHORED) {
            pageItems[i].anchoredObjectSettings.anchoredPosition = AnchorPosition.ANCHORED;
        }
        pageItems[i].anchoredObjectSettings.releaseAnchoredObject();
    }
    

    It works, but I don't know if the results are what you're after.

  • Transparently adding a criterion to all the objects in an application view

    Any help will be much appreciated.

    Thank you
    Bilal

    Hello

    You can have a method on the AOS, that is the place where clause to the view of all the objects and run the query.

    Ex:

    public void setWhereClause2AllVOs(String compName){
    this.getVO1().setWhereClause("='" + compName + "'");
    this.getVO1().executeQuery();
    this.getVO2().setWhereClause("='" + compName + "'");
    this.getVO2().executeQuery();
    .....
    }
    

    You can call this method at the start (e.g. as an activity in your workflow by default methodCall)

  • Select all the objects with 2pt STROKE?

    It is possible to select all objects with a particular characteristic, such as a specific line width? I know I can do this by selecting an object, and then choose Select all. But I want to include as part of a batch action, so I need to be able to specify the choice so that it can be completely automated. If I have to choose one of the objects for each file, it defeats the purpose of the action of batch processing.

    If this is not possible, I should ask in the forum script to help a script?

    NW

    With nothing selected, the value of the weight of the 2pt race. Now select > same > weight of the race.

    Set the weight of the race is registrable and if nothing is selected, then select it > same commands using what is defined in the panels.

    Step 1:
     
    Test the issue in safe mode and check if the keyboard is blocked.
     
    Step 2:
     
    If your computer very well in Safe Mode functions, you can put your system to boot and check if any third party or any service application is causing the problem and therefore the computer to freeze.
     
    Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you can go ahead and disable or uninstall the same.

  • Receptive Slide height develops all the objects on the slide master background.

    Hey,.

    If I build a sensitive project and slides, I need to unlock the height of the slide in mobile mode on some slides to create a scrolling to display more content.

    When I adjust the height of the blade, it develops all the objects in the background of the slide (my header, title...). These elements are not merged.

    Is there anyway that I can adjust the height of the blade so that it is not developing all the objects on the slide, only the backdrop (i.e. the white canvas). I try to use a model of slides for content pages.

    Or is the only way around it to create a number of different slide masters with heights of slide?

    See you soon

    Hello

    I feel your pain. I struggled with this for a long time, but finally found a solution.

    If you want to extend the height of the blade, creating a scroll bar. But you want certain elements to stretch and others do not.


    Object to Extensible NOT / Static

    • Create in the Slide Master
    • Set the properties top and % Relative height.

    Stretch/dynamic objects

    • Create directly in slide film
    • Set the Top % Relative property
    • Set the Height property for % (not related).

    I recommend to create a slide film finalized and then duplicate this slide for all other instances.

    Let me know if it works.
