• 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?

• How get rid you of the "work Plan" and just opened a "Document?

  I am trying to open a new blank document, but the resulting page has the little word 'Work Plan' in the upper left corner on the page. I don't know what a work plan is not something perhaps in Illustrator. I wanted not a "work plan" and even spelling wants to force me to put "target".

  If someone could tell me how and why I'm getting this and help me a little to open a Photoshop Document clear, white, new, I would be so grateful. If you want to tell me briefly what is a 'work plan' and knowing I don't want one and probably never employeront such a thing...

  TIA,

  When you get the screen of characteristics of the document (paper size, etc.), search for "Type of Document" and select what you want.

  

• Presentation of the work plans and grid in 2015 CC

  Hello

  I really like the new system of work plans and I tried to adjust my existing models and systems network (for web design and app) with them in mind.

  So I created a new document, put plans in place of my work with different dimensions... and then I tried to use grid layout Panel to create benchmarks for each of my work plans.

  I can put up the original xy for each work plan. But when I use grid layout Panel, it seems that it only uses the "global origin", based on the first artboard created...

  What I see or understand, the grid layout Panel is not more useful when you're working with different work plans.

  SO I'm currently positioning my guides - a - think better methods...

  Anyone encounter the same difficulties? Just maybe workaround?

  In addition, Photoshop crashes a lot with the zoom when I slip with my mouse to zoom/zoom. I do not have this problem so I suspect that comes with the 2015 version.

  Can I disable the photoshop special zoom/zoom use one like Illustrator? (I've not seen anything in the settings. Animated zoom is already disable)

  UPDATE: Photoshop crashes every 2 minutes. I tried to reset the preferences, but it does not help. I no longer use the zoom with mouse slides, but that does not change: whatever I I had an accident after some modifications to the document.

  Really disappointed. My day is lost, and if I can't get Phtoshop to work, I also lose a project if not more...

  Thank you in advance!

  There was a bug just fixed a few days ago that had to do with large documents dimensionally with high zoom factors. If it is not specific to the work plans, a document of work plan may get in trouble more easily. Specifically, if the calculations of coordinates for the drawing overlay (for example selections) went over 32 000, we could get into trouble. For example, a document of 5000 pixels wide 800% zoom could have some contact information to 40,000. So, if your document fits this profile, it * might * be causing accidents you saw; It is difficult to be sure.

  The fix is tested in-house right now. (And no - I can't tell you when you may receive the fix - just that it's in the pipeline)

  We are certainly thinking about improvements with Guides and work plans.

  So, Yes, we read these threads, even if we don't answer every time. Thanks for the information!

• How to find no work plans and the lines of a doc. ?

  Hello

  could someone tell me how to count the number of work plans and existing lines in the document?

  the CS4 API can do?

  I couldn't find all the suites do.

  Please help I'm stuck.

  Thank you

  DeepAlone.

  The number of work plans is easy: AICropAreaSuite::GetCount() in AICropArea.h. The number of lines? It's more complicated, since there is no ownership of it. You figure, however, using the methods of AICropArea to join the rectangles (see struct above) of each work plan (or "box frame" as they are called in the nomenclature of the CS4 API). There is no guarantee that they are in lines, of course, since they can be moved. You can take a stab but looking at the top & bottom and see if a bunch of them line up; which would give you meaning to all the lines are there is they are in lines.

• Updated to the new Photoshop CC 2015: work plan and the background are both white I can't see any outline. Will not change when I try to get a different background color.

  This seems almost elementary but I tried everything literally, the only thing I can think is that this is a bug.

  When I'm working on work plans, they are white and the background is white, so I don't quite see the outline. I tried to change the background color to dark gray or any other color, but nothing works. I restarted my computer, the software, everything. Nothing works. It only happens to me, everyone in my company isn't the problem. We checked out the contrast on my computer and it's all good. I had two different designers tinker around with it and they say it must be a bug because they have tried everything they can and I also.

  Now I simply add a grey box dark to my work plans so I can see the sketch, but it's really annoying, I have to do, especially since I work with Photoshop 4 hours per day.

  You must set your GPU options in preferences to something other than "Bacic."

• 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;

  app.coordinateSystem = CoordinateSystem.ARTBOARDCOORDINATESYSTEM;

  var ab = docRef.artboards [0];

  If (((ab.artboardRect[2]-ab.artboardRect[0])/72) == 17) & & (((ab.artboardRect[1]-ab.artboardRect[3])/72) == 20)) {}

  do nothing

  }

  else {}

  docRef.artboards.remove (0);

  var abIdx = docRef.artboards.getActiveArtboardIndex ();

  var actAbBds = docRef.artboards [abIdx] .artboardRect;

  }

  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)) {
  

• 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!

  Ken Krugh,

  You can adapt the artboard at work (work, fit to the work plan tool).

• work plans and the origin

  Hi, I am looking to attract some objects on fixed positions on work plans by first defining the origin of the document to the top - left of the artboard. However, this seems to work for some of the work plans, but not for all.

  Example code:

  #target illustrator
  
  // create artboards
  var CurrentDoc = app.documents.add ( DocumentColorSpace.CMYK, 595, 841, 12, DocumentArtboardLayout.GridByRow, 50, 6); 
  var artboardRef = CurrentDoc.artboards;
  
  // loopt through all artboards
  for ( var i = 0; i < artboardRef.length; i++ ) 
    {
     // set page and ruler origin
     var RulerLeft = artboardRef[i].artboardRect[0];
     var RulerTop  = artboardRef[i].artboardRect[1] ;
     CurrentDoc.rulerOrigin = [RulerLeft,RulerTop];
     CurrentDoc.pageOrigin  = [RulerLeft,RulerTop];
    
     //add text to artboard
     var cTextRef = CurrentDoc.textFrames.add();
     cTextRef.textRange.characterAttributes.textFont=app.textFonts.getByName("Verdana"); 
     cTextRef.textRange.characterAttributes.size = 27;
     cTextRef.contents = "ArtBoard: "+ (i+1);
     cTextRef.left = +55;
     cTextRef.top = -64;
     redraw();
    } 
  

  8 of the 12 work plans get the text at the right position (but not in the right order when I look at the range of work plans). Text for 4 work plans is placed completely outside all work plans.

  Any help is appreciated,

  Michel

  A mathematical operation is Ok, no need to set the origin.

  // create artboards

  var artboardRef = CurrentDoc.artboards;
  
  // loopt through all artboards
  for ( var i = 0; i < artboardRef.length; i++ )
    {
     // set page and ruler origin
     var RulerLeft = artboardRef[i].artboardRect[0];
     var RulerTop  = artboardRef[i].artboardRect[1] ;
     //CurrentDoc.rulerOrigin = [RulerLeft,RulerTop];
     //CurrentDoc.pageOrigin  = [RulerLeft,RulerTop];
  
     //add text to artboard

• Copy the work plan (and art) to another document

  Is it possible to write a script to copy a graphic Board selected/chosen (and its contents) to another document open, placing exactly in the same place on the global x / y coordinates?  I am unable to find this feature in Illustrator, or it is simply missing.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

• No way to resize the work plan and do adjust the coordinates for lower left corner is 0,0?

  That may have been too verbose an issue.

  I noticed that when I resize the artboard of my document coordinates don't update with it. 0.0 which for me is always good in the lower left corner now becomes a task in the region. The lower left corner becomes-344,-555. This does not work for me.

  So far when I am faced with this I just made a new document with the new size I want, but it is old.

  You can always move the zero point by grabbing the corner where the rules meet and that by dragging to the location where you zero to be.  Turn on benchmarks commented to help snap to the right place.

• 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)

• 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?

  Have fun

• Cannot delete work plans

  Hello

  I appreciate the introduction of the function of work plan, but I find it difficult to control.

  For example, clicking outside of the workspace, after selecting the map tool, create a work plan and its corresponding layer in the layers panel fine,

  but the removal of the corresponding layer does not remove the artboard in the document window.

  
  

  How could completely get rid of the artboard?

  Hi schools,

  In a Word, you must close the document in order to completely get rid of the artboard.

• Work plans in Photoshop CC - copy linked, as in InDesign

  Salvation;

  Work in Photoshop plans are great, but can you have bound copy as in another indesign layout? That is to say: the first work plan is the Parent for subsequent 'child' work plans...?

  Hi scottm27783582,

  If I understand correctly, you are looking for the functionality of nested work which is not yet supported plans.

  You can have multiple plans created in Photoshop and you can create a work plan of layers in another work plan, but you can not work plans parent/child hierarchy in Photoshop.
