Select all objects in the active work plan
Hello
I want to select all objects in terms of active work using javascript
someone help me please with script
Thank you
APPU
JavaScript is case-sensitive, activedocument is not the same thing as activeDocument
change
var doc = app.activedocument;
TO
var doc = app.activeDocument;
You can't use the methods themselves, must qualify the first object
change
selectObjectsOnActiveArtboard();
TO
doc.selectObjectsOnActiveArtboard();
You should start by reading The Intro from Adobe to the script and practice according to the samples presented, then continue with Illustrator Scripting Guide and the Reference of Scripting in Illustrator

I'm fairly new to Illustrator, but it seems like it should be simple. (It's trivial in CorelDraw X 4: after selecting an object with three knots, I go to Edition > search and replace > find objects > find objects that correspond to the currently selected object and navigate the menus left.)
In Illustrator CS5, select options > identical do not seem to include the selection of all objects with the same number of nodes under the currently selected object.
A double click on the magic wand tool also does not provide such an option.
Thanks for any help.
PS also useful would be knowing how to add other criteria to this search, for example, how to select all objects with three points * and * the current fill color.
advictoriam,
I'm afraid that you have better luck with the number of anchor Point.

Select all objects with the same style of object?
I did some research but empty is come. It is possible to select all the objects on a page that have the same style of applied object?
What I want to do, is apply an action 'frame content' to a large group of text boxes (labels on a map). But this mounting option doesn't seem to be available as part of the style of the object.
Any suggestions?
Thank you.
Try using the option Auto-size text block rather in the style of the object. This feature (found in the object > text frame Options) is useful to the legends of autosize following certain rules.
This attribute can be used in object styles.

How to select several objects on the layers panel in Illustrator CC
I have a work of guge and I need to select a small group (about 10-100) of objects from 4000 bunk and then group objects ' em/split-to-layers for ease of use (this is an infographic of the human body for medical institute)
There IS NO way by selecting in the Web because they are overlapping and sometimes not visible at all.
in CS5 there was a function to select several objects to the icon selection Alt + click - move on the right in the Layers panel.
Now the mode duplication towers - on when I try to run it.
Then.
Ho I select several object without having to click through thousands of them? (I need to drag-select)
IM totally frustrated.
As long there is no deliberately locked object, you can do the following:
Drag on the lock column in the layer panel
Object > unlock all (there is a shortcut for this)
-> unlocked objects are selected

Call javascript function when select all is checked the report
Hi Experts
Ive a tabular manual from query below
SELECT Apex_item.checkbox (1, ID, 'onclick = enableButton ()') select, a, b, c of table
By choosing 1 or more checkbox individually, enableButton() is called, and works very well as expected
However when select all is done, I do not know how to call the same function
Position of column select is: < input type = "checkbox" onclick = "$f_CheckFirstColumn (this)" / > (topic is a checkbox, check, selects all rows in the report) "
I tried: < input type = "checkbox" onclick = "$f_CheckFirstColumn (this)" onclick = "javascritp:enableButton(); "/ >. It does not help
Is it possible to call the function when select all is checked?

"selection of object by the path only" in Indesign?
Hi, I have just changed to cs4 to 5.5 and can't seem to select an object, if it is another, even if the top element of a 'none' was complete. I know that I can hold cmd and select "via" objects but in cs4, I didn't need to do it as long as the top item had no fill. This preference can be enabled/disabled through the "selection of object by the path only" checkbox in illustrator, but I can't seem to find it in Indesign. Maybe I'm lazy who want to simply do not press the cmd button but it's just annoying the hell out of me for any clarification would be much appreciated.
Ant.
Hey Ant,.
You use the 'Frame' Rectangle tool or the tool 'Rectangle '? I find that I selected the 'Frame' Rectangle tool, it will always be the selected object, even if it has no fill; using the "Marquee" tool, if it has no fill, you can select the objects below it without going through CMD-click.
Hope that helps,
See you soon!

A common way is to loop through every element in the document and change its values of the background color or contour, or in the case of text, attributes of character for the fill and the outline of the text characters. This can take some time if you have many objects. In addition, if you have the color applied via the graphic styles or appearances, they are not detectable via javascript. But if you had your spot colors, you can change the values of these tasks of swatch and color will be updated in all aspects of the document, including the graphic styles, brushes, etc..
Here is an example of editing a fill for a TextBox inside a CMYK document:
#target illustrator function test(){ // must have cmyk document with one text frame (which contains at least one character) and one path for this test. // a simple function to assign the cmyk values to a cmyk color function editCMYKValues(affectedColorObject, c, m, y, k){ affectedColorObject.cyan = c; affectedColorObject.magenta = m; affectedColorObject.yellow = y; affectedColorObject.black = k; }; var doc = app.activeDocument; var t = doc.textFrames[0]; var myTexFill = t.textRange.characterAttributes.fillColor; editCMYKValues(myTexFill, 100, 100, 25, 25); var p = doc.pathItems[0]; editCMYKValues(p.fillColor, 25, 100, 100, 25); } test();

move the selection to the new work plan
Hi guys,.
I'm new to Illustrator script but I have done some in InDesign.
I want a script to move a selection to a new work plan and be able to name the work plan.
I can't find something in the DOM as artboards.add ().
Any help?
Hi jakec88782761,
are what version of picture you?
Working with work plans is possible since CS4 +.
Here's a simple example in [JS]
var AB_1 = activeDocument.artboards.add([0,50,200,0]); AB_1.name = 'first quadrant'; var AB_2 = activeDocument.artboards.add([-200,50,0,0]); AB_2.name = 'second quadrant'; var AB_3 = activeDocument.artboards.add([-200,0,0,-50]); AB_3.name = 'third quadrant'; var AB_4 = activeDocument.artboards.add([0,0,200,-50]); AB_4.name = 'fourth quadrant';
Have fun

Align all objects on the artboard, as if they were a group
AI CS5.1. Bringing together a bunch of objects destroyed their classifications of layer, so how can I select the entire document on my page, treat it as if it were a group and swivel on the artboard?
The best way to focus a group of objects on the artboard is concluded [width of graphic Board / 2] in the X coordinate and [height of work plan / 2] in the coordinate Y of the Transform palette. Make sure you have the Center selected as your point of reference in the Transform palette point.

Selection of objects from the fill color
Hi guys
Is possible to select a color to CMYK using JavaScriptobject?
I want to group multiple objects with the same fill color.
Thank you very much for your time...
Please see the picture below...
Hello Puthoskey any good?
Well, I wrote something like what I said, notes:
This code works just to PathItems;
Just CMYKColor;
You must select a pathItem before running the script.
Read selected item fillColor and a loop in all pageItems document, if the pageItem is a pathItem and having the same fillColor or strokeColor, it will be grouped with others;
If you want to do it in other objects like textItems, you must follow the same logic;
Try, test and enjoy, contact us for more rule.
function selSameColor (){ if(app.activeDocument.selection.length == 0){alert('Select a pathItem.'); return}; if(app.activeDocument.selection.length > 1){alert('Select just one pathItem.'); return}; var selFillColor = function(){ var groupColor = app.activeDocument.groupItems.add(); if(app.activeDocument.selection[0].typename == 'PathItem'){ var colorSel = new CMYKColor; colorSel.cyan = app.activeDocument.selection[0].fillColor.cyan; colorSel.magenta = app.activeDocument.selection[0].fillColor.magenta; colorSel.yellow = app.activeDocument.selection[0].fillColor.yellow; colorSel.black = app.activeDocument.selection[0].fillColor.black; }else{alert('This is not a pathitem.'); return}; var itemsLength = app.activeDocument.pageItems.length; var items = app.activeDocument.pageItems; for (i = 0; i < itemsLength; i++){ if(items[i].typename == 'PathItem'){ if(items[i].fillColor.cyan == colorSel.cyan && items[i].fillColor.magenta == colorSel.magenta && items[i].fillColor.yellow == colorSel.yellow && items[i].fillColor.black == colorSel.black){ items[i].moveToBeginning(groupColor); }else if(items[i].strokeColor.cyan == colorSel.cyan && items[i].strokeColor.magenta == colorSel.magenta && items[i].strokeColor.yellow == colorSel.yellow && items[i].strokeColor.black == colorSel.black){ items[i].moveToBeginning(groupColor); }; }; }; if(groupColor.pageItems.length > 0){groupColor.selected = true}; }; selFillColor (); }; selSameColor ();
I hope this useful, see ya soon man.
Best regards

How to select all objects in a document?
Newbie question WAS:
I have an active document with two linked files, I need to select both of them in a script and incorporate the two. Then I'll be in selecting these separate and perform various actions on each.
In JavaScript, once I have the document object how can I select these two files/items?
Thank you
Dave
This will select all the document and incorporate your files related to assets:
* a slight change *.
for (I = app.activeDocument.placedItems.length - 1; i > = 0; i--) {}
app.activeDocument.placedItems [i] .selected = true;
app.activeDocument.placedItems [i] .embed ();
}see you soon;
