Scripting languages and numbering of work plans

Hello fellow Scripting Guys,.

First Question:

I know the Java scripts and I remember supporting Basic but what other languages I can script in?  Can I have the largest part of the Java script then have parts in SQL?

Second Question:

I know how to do a script writing text to a layer and using the position (x, y) location, but if I have several Art cards? I need to do the following:

Look for the number total of //Some art cards files have 2 other 3 and very few will be 4.

Take the advice number, not name art and print it lower-left (1.1) from the bottom.

I would need to run this batch on a folder that contains subfolders of subfolders.  They are all the .ai or .pdf files and there is about 2 k files.  I have about 2-3 months to do this, but I wanted to write the script now so that I can have it done, this way I can run on pieces of files at once.

I've never done a batch script, and I've never had to write a script that changes between the boards of the art.  I need to know how to tell Illustrator to choose a Council of art, I can create the loop cycling through all the art advice and then I can say to save, but how can I say to get the next file in the folder and repetition?

to print the text of each work plan, you can use the function below. I have just set a variable to the text to be printed, it can so easily be changed if need be.

I hope it's useful.

function printToArtboards(){
    var docRef = app.activeDocument;
    var artboards = docRef.artboards;
    var layers = docRef.layers;
    app.coordinateSystem = CoordinateSystem.ARTBOARDCOORDINATESYSTEM;

    for(var a=0;a

  • Loop and remove the work plans

    Need help.  Try to loop through work plans and delete if isn't a specific name.  When you try to delete, it gives me an illegal argument.  I must be missing something.  Help would be appreciated.

    IDoc var = app.activeDocument;

    var idoc.artboards = artbs;

    var artbcount = artbs.length;

    var artbsNames = [];

    for (var i = 0; i < artbcount; i ++) {}

    artbsNames = artbs [i] .name;

    var artboardSelected = idoc.artboards [i];

    artboardSelected = artbsNames;

    If (artboardSelected == ['special work plan']) {}

    Alert ("this is not special");

    }

    else {}

    ARTBS. Remove();

    }

    }

    Hi jeremy0013

    Why so complicated? As Silly-V says: If you want to remove an item from your loop you loop back always.

    And a simple clause should be sufficient:

    var idoc = app.activeDocument;
    var artbs = idoc.artboards;
    for (var i = artbs.length-1 ; i >= 0; i--) {
        if (artbs[i].name != "Special Artboard") {
            artbs[i].remove();
        }
    }
    

    Does this work for you?

  • Size of work plans and EPS

    Hi all! I am an experienced user of CorelDRAW (so I have a few illustration vector experience) but a noob to Illustrator and trying switching evalutate.

    In CorelDRAW when I export an EPS any paper size use the CorelDRAW file, the bounding box of the EPS is only the size of the drawing.

    In Illustrator, however, it seems that I have to address the jury of art to the size of the drawing. Otherwise, when the EPS is pulled into another program (like InDesign), the created image is much larger than the actual drawing, leaving a white space around the drawing.

    Is it a framework EPS I'm missing somewhere that would make set the bounding box for drawing and not the work plan?

    Or (as most of the Illustrator files we will work with that are created by someone else) is there a way to set automatcially size of the Commission of the dough to the size of the drawing?

    Thank you very much!

  • Illustrator is the addition of extra pixels to copied work plans

    Hello

    I do web design prototyping. I designed my homepage at size 1024 x 768 and then copied the artboard to create excessive state of the menu. I continue to copy the work plan for my homepage until I got 8 copies to edit with different contents. Each of them reported size 1024 x 768 in illustatror.

    Screen Shot 2015-09-03 at 8.07.30 PM.png

    The problem started when I exported JPEG individual work plans and my first work plan (home) was 1024 x 768; While the rest of the copies (who said to be this same size inside the Illustrator) is 1025 x 768 pixels. The small movement caused by this extra pixel is sometimes seen as I program the hot HTML.

    (JPEG-work plan home original vs home State too JPEG copied from the original)

    Please I need help, I tried everything and nothing seems to work. There is nothing outside the area of work plan and guides are out of service, as well as the presentation layer is disabled or deleted, nothing works.

    Please, I beg you! Help!

    If you double-click the work plan tool to display the artboard options, you will probably see fractions for the X Y coordinates.

    Make sure that it didn't there ar no value fractional pixel before exporting, the artboard and the position of art

  • create a layer to apply globally to all work plans

    I'm a website design in illustrator. The header (menu and logo) and the footer (quick links and other copyright information) will be the same on all pages.

    My site has 5 web pages, so I want to create 5 work plans showing the different pages. I'm doing what I can see the product in full before you start coding.

    Is there a way I can set up a plan of work as a model and have 5 work plans that link the artboard (template) so if I change the model work plan, it affects all web page work plans (5)?

    Thank you

    Nick

    Illustrator doesn't really have an option of 'master work plan. "

    If you are looking for the possibility of having identical articles on several work plans, simply create the first item on a work plan. Drag it to the symbols Panel. Then choose the command Edition > cut followed by Edit > paste on all working plans.

    The Paste command puts the item in the same position on all working plans. If you must then modify the object later, just edit the symbol and all instances on all work plans will be updated as well.

  • Working on a script that will add a new work plan and remove the old if it is not a specific size

    var app.activeDocument = docRef;

    I mean it works about 90% of the time. I don't know why it does not always work, sometimes it will build the other work plan, even if it's the right size and I have no idea why. It's very frustrating haha. If anyone has an idea why it won't always work, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

    Hi djbgraphicdesign,

    Maybe this could be a rounding problem.

    Please try something like this instead

    if ((Math.round((ab.artboardRect[2] - ab.artboardRect[0]) / 72) == 17) && (Math.round((ab.artboardRect[1] - ab.artboardRect[3]) / 72) == 20)) {
    
  • Reorganize work plans and move the work hidden with both work plan?

    Is it possible to use the option to "Reorganize the work plans" in the dropdown to work plans and also the movement not only the plan of work itself, but also the hidden work (layers, objects, etc.) on this work plan?

    I tried marking check the option 'move illustration with work plan' , but that still does not move the hidden work. The default behavior seems to be that only the active or visible work is moved with the artboard, but the work of hiddden is left behind somewhere on the workspace where the work plan used to be before it was moved.

    I find it a little heavy, because I often hide work that I test and have to do all visible again to move them just with the artboard would break the dinstinction between all many very similar layers, objects, etc. that I could work with at any given time.

    If anyone has some advice please chime...

    Hahaha... your memory is better that an elephant Kurt, but remember that I already have this script of cardiac arrest?

  • Change order/work plan numbers

    I am currently working on a project that involves more than 16 plans to work in the same document, but when I want to change the order of the work plans [for registration in PDF format] I have to move all the contents of my work to the new plan of work plans, etc.etc.

    It's really annoying, especially when I want to insert a new work plan between some wonderful ones.

    So is it possible to change something of the order of the work plans, or well they numbers [essentially the same]?

    Please let me know as soon as POSSIBLE!

    Yes, you can create or modify the security settings in Acrobat. It's really something Acrobat, in any case. Illustrator can do go save as PDF dialog, but it really is to call on the features of Acrobat to do.

    If you open the PDF in Acrobat and do a right click anywhere on the page you can access document properties. One of the tabs in this context menu is for security. It should seem familiar and manageable.

    Good luck.

    I figured how to stop my warning high. I just got an answer and it reminded me that I now know why my computer was giving this prompt. This may help a bit there. So I decided to write.

    In my case it was my 'Sigmatel Audio Control Panel.
    I had disabled "allow reconfiguration pop ups".
    This will make the warning "Run a legacy CPL high" lights up to chance that your system can access this audio program. Once I've rechecked. The warnings went away unless I open the control panel. But it's a normal warning according to the manufacturer of my computer.
    Some of you may have something much more serious, but for the few who becomes confused by the latter and have this audio driver, this may help.

  • Work plans and layers

    Hello

    I created a work plan for a business card and then created a second to the front of the card.

    How to make it so that when I click on the respective work plan it has its own set of layers?

    Now even when I click on this new work plan and type text that everything seems to go with the layers I created on my first work plan?

    Is there no way to their separation?

    Thank you

    Paul.

    Layers are a document element, not a work one plan. That said, you can select all the layers in a new composite layer for the first artboard using the command in the layer Panel dialog box. Then create another layer for the second. Name the front and back layers.

  • Work plans: selection of the artboard and unlock automatic disabling shapes in the work plans - possible?

    Hello

    I easily through the General work plan, and I saw immediately, so I thought I'd put it out there. Here are my two questions:

    1. is there a way to disable the ability to move a work plan while working in it? Essentially, to block the plan in place, but not the items it contains? If you use the automatic selection and slightly approach the edge of the plateau, then swipes the entire Board rather than just a few layers / items you want.

    2 is there a way to auto unlock all layers, including forms? It can be really frustrating for fish through the layers to find the form locked in order to remove a work plan. Command + / has not worked for me when I closed a single object manually.

    Thank you very much! I hope that these are not repeated questions.

    1. Yes. Use 'Position Lock' on the layer of the artboard properly said.

    2. Yes. Select the parent group or the artboard. While holding down the alt/option key, choose "Lock all layers in artboard...» "in the drop-down menu Layers Palette.

    This should unlock all layers inside this group or the artboard.

    (Probably, the fact that the menu does not change when you hold down the alt key is a bug, but it does not)
