Adding actions to Illustrator

I'm trying to add "masking actions" to Illustrator but it won't copy. I'm using the 30-day trial version of illustrator. Could that me why I'm not able to add actions?

How to solve the Error in Action for illustrator cs3

Through action in illustrator cs3 i changed the document mode RGB to CMYK via Visual Basic. But sometimes it throws 2 different kinds of error messages.
CODE:
appRef.DoScript "Change", "Convert"
While (appRef.ActionIsRunning)
WScript.sleep 1000
Wend
Error 1:
Could not complete the Play Command because the action is playing.
Error 2:
The Object "Document Color Mode: CMYK Color" is not currently available.
Could you please explain how to solve this error.

The input data provided as the first argument to ore.tableApply and rqTableEval are physically being moved from Oracle Database to the database server R engine, and then serially operating on the entire table The benefit to using ore.tableApply/rqTableEval in this case is the potentially greater amount of RAM on the database server. But it's important to note that R’s memory limitations still apply in this case.
You may have already seen the blog post on Managing Memory Limits and Configuring Exadata for Embedded R Execution where we discuss setting memory limits for the database server R engine. These suggestions can be used to load reasonably sized data tables, and you may still encounter limitations when using a very large table.
In contrast to the "table apply" functions, the "group Eval" and "row eval (" functions are parallel-enabled embedded R execution functions. They support data-parallel execution, where one or more R engines perform the same R function, or task, on different partitions of data. The following training and blog links should be helpful in choosing the correct function for your use case:

Actions In Illustrator

Does Adobe Illustrator have actions that work like in PhotoShop. If so, could you point me to a tutorial that demonstrates this feature, preferably video tutorial. I have as many as 10,000 PDFs that I have to put logo and company name in a same specific place and save. The trick is they are in different folders and are not named sequentially. I am open to suggestions.

PDF are not meant for editing.
When opening in Illustrator you do all kinds of terrible things to a PDF. Unless the PDFs have an embedded Illustrator file part (which can only happen when they were designed in Illustrator)
You might rather look for possibilities to do this in Acrobat.

SVG filters disappearing from Actions whenever Illustrator is closed

Hi all.
I'm working on a file I'd like to use as a template, and it will include some actions.
Here's the problem - once Illustrator has been closed and reopened, while the custom actions still show up, they no longer contain the SVG filters. It requires the user to reload the set of actions every time they reopen Illustrator.
Part of the point of the template is to reduce the extra steps in workflows, so I'm hoping someone can suggest a way to fix this.
Discussed it with other designers on my team, and they suggested we include the actions in the Presets folder, hoping it would automatically do some sort of "fresh install" of the actions when we load Illustrator. We tried that - I actually added the actions into the default set, and though it loads the actions, they still show as having lost the filters. Again, the only way to get them back is to reload the actions separately.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I'm not familiar with ExtendScript, but the filters I am using are VERY simple - do their default filters include ExtendScript...? (seems unlikely, but then again, clueless about ExtendScript).
Here's one I am using:
<filter width="200%" height="200%" id="AI_GlowBlur" y="-50%" x="-50%">
<feGaussianBlur stdDeviation="5"></feGaussianBlur>
</filter>
Could it have anything to do with the fact that they are inserted from the menu? Although like I said, the actions work fine until Illustrator is closed and reopened. :-( So probably not.
Ugh.

Find and Replace simple action crashes Illustrator CC

I am now trying Creative Cloud and I came with this bug. When I use a simple action to find and replace a text string in my file it will crash the Illustrator.
My actions is pretty simple:
Find > "aa" (I do have to check all the options to work)
Find and Replace > "aa" to "2014.01.29"
This action works well if I use it once by the Edit menu, but if I close the Illustrator and reopen, it'll not work again and will crash the software.
Everyday I do update my action to actual date, so the action will work normally but sometimes I do have to close the app and I have to make the action again and again everytime.
This was a problem already in CS5, last version that I used.
I'm using Windows 8.

Msot likely this isthe problem of the action playing back to fast.

Adding action events

Whenever i used to add action event, i used to do it like:
submitJButton.addActionListener(
         new ActionListener() // anonymous inner class
            // event handler called when startJButton is pressed
            public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent event1 )
               submitJButtonActionPerformed( event1 );
         } // end anonymous inner class
      ); // end call to addActionListenerHow can i add action events to these two buttons though?
    private JPanel createButtonPanel() {
          JPanel panel = new JPanel();
          JPanel temp = new JPanel(new GridLayout(1,2, 5,5));
          temp.add(new JButton("REGISTER"), BorderLayout.LINE_START);
          temp.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(200, 40));
          temp.add(new JButton("LOGIN"), BorderLayout.LINE_END);
          temp.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(200, 40));
          panel.add(temp);
          return panel;
     }

That works really well. Now for the register button, how would i get this register class to display?
package layout;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Register {
    private static void createAndShowGUI() {
     String[] labels = {"Name: ", "ID No: ", "Username: ", "Password: "};
     int numPairs = labels.length;
    JPanel pan = new JPanel(new SpringLayout());
    for (int i = 0; i < numPairs; i++) {
        JLabel lab = new JLabel(labels, JLabel.TRAILING);
pan.add(lab);
JTextField textField = new JTextField(10);
lab.setLabelFor(textField);
pan.add(textField);
SpringUtilities.makeCompactGrid(pan, numPairs, 2, 6, 6, 6, 6); //(rows, columns, initx, inity, xpad, ypad
     JFrame frame = new JFrame("Nerkesa Pignatelli");
     frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
     pan.setOpaque(true);
     frame.setContentPane(pan);
     //Display the window.
     frame.pack();
     frame.setVisible(true);
public static void main(String[] args) {
javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
createAndShowGUI();
}The only reason i ask this is because i followed the sun tutorial site to produce this register form and when it run's it,, it uses createAndShowGUI(); where when i have added different classes to action events before, i have normally used somthing like in my title class, new Title().setVisible(true);

Merging roads with added text in illustrator CS5

Please help,
I need a way to merge roads with text added in illustrator. I've tried compound paths but it won't allow text to be added.
I've attached an .ai file
Kind Regards
JS Baxter

Doug,
With Butt Caps, the strokes of the branch roads will always end inside the through road (if their end points are placed on top of the through road path (Smart Guides say path). And with the second stroke applied at group level it just follows the outer shape as shown in the first OP image. If you hide the Type paths, you can also add new roads and drag them into the basic path group, then create a Type path from a copy.
You can move matching Anchor Points about together.
Adjusting the corresponding Handles is more tricky, but you can:
5) Lock the Type path (group) and drag the Handle of the Road path to the desired position and unlock the Type path (group);
6) Drag over both Anchor Points then drag the Type path Handle to coincide with the Road path Handle (Smart Guides say handle when you are there).
You will probably have to repeat 6) once or maybe twice or more, but it gets easier the closer you are.
Edit: Hi Steve. No frost at night, so I have just stopped carrying our new star magnolia inside every night; now it has a temporary fence to keep the roe deer outside snapping distance.

Adding actions to buttons...

I created a slide show in flash (I'm very new to Flash). The
slideshow
works great so far. I recently added some buttons to the
slideshow (each in
their own respective layers) and the buttons are Prev, Play,
Stop, Next. I
want to add actions to each of those buttons with the action
script. I want
the Stop button to simply stop the movie whenever you press
the button, the
play button I want to simply play the slideshow if one has
pressed the stop
button (by default my slideshow starts when it loads). The
next and play
buttons are obvious what they will do. I'm wondering how I go
about adding
these actions to each button. I know how to add them to the
buttons but I
just don't know the proper Action Script code. Can anyone
help me out with
this. Can't seem to find a good tutorial on it!

Programmatically adding action to button

I have tried to programmatically add javascript to an Acrobat button, as follows (using APToolkitNet):
FieldInfo fi = toolKit.FieldInfo( "ButtonX" ,1 );
fi.MouseUpScript = "app.alert('hello world')"; //OR
fi.JavaScript = "app.alert('hello world')";
I run my code, and this script does get added to my form javascripts. The problem is, they are being added as being a type of Calculation, as follows:
//<AcroForm>
//<ACRO_source>ButtonX:Calculate</ACRO_source>
//<ACRO_script>
/*********** belongs to: AcroForm:ButtonX:Calculate ***********/
app.alert('hello world')
//</ACRO_script>
//</AcroForm>
When it should be (i.e. this is what occurs when you manually add the javascript):
//<AcroForm>
//<ACRO_source>ButtonX:Annot1:MouseUp:Action1</ACRO_source>
//<ACRO_script>
/*********** belongs to: AcroForm:ButtonX:Annot1:MouseUp:Action1 ***********/
app.alert('hello world')
//</ACRO_script>
//</AcroForm>
Can anyone help me???
Thanks

Since Acrobat supports 4 mouse actions, you will have to find out how to differentiate between the "Mouse Enter", "Mouse Down", "Mouse Up", and "Mouse Exit" actions. The vendor should have provided documentation or can provide the information.

Adding Metadata in Illustrator 10?

Hi All,
Fairly new to Illustrator here. I've designed some work for a company that produces organic beauty products, and I need to embed some information within my files - especially before they go to be printed as product labels.
I'm using Illustrator 10. I was told to go to 'File Info' to input the information. I can't find this option anywhere!
Can anyone help me with this?
Cheers,
CryssieJade

Do you not have a copy of Acrobat? If you do, why are you not delivering your print files as press-ready PDFs and entering your metadata in Acrobat?

Help with adding action script to an order form

Hi - Firs time I'm on this board. Searched and didn't see
anything that fit. Adobe/Macromedia Support told me my form needs
an action script insert for me to gain access to a previous page.
I'm revamping an online order form. It's about 2 1/2 pages in
length. I find that I can't go back to the first page -- I'm locked
in the second one. On split screen the HTML coding shows there is
more than one page. Also, when I look at it in a browser the whole
page is there.
Does anyone know how and where I can put in action script.
I'm not an HTML maven so this isn't my thing. Thanks for whatever
advice you can give.
Best - ETide

Hi Babu,
You want to populate the Drop-Down list dynamically or based on input field value you need to populate a Drop-Down list.
