Can I embed Illustrator tools in my Scripts ?

Hallo every one
Background story
My work colleges and I have gotten our hands on a ridicules amount of illustrator files. These are divided in to category’s and hold more then one object/group in each file.
we have managed to find/wright a script that will extract each group as an individual *.ai file, but we still need to unite the shapes in each group before it is being exported. this would usually be done via the pathfinder (Unite compound shape [CS4]).
My Question
What is the best way to embed an Adobe Illustrator tool in our Java script?
and were can I find a list with the commands that correspond to Illustrators tools?
General information
Version: CS4
Script: Java Script

sorry but Javascript does not have access to Pathfinder operations...if it helps, you could apply an already existing Graphic Style, being Effect->Pathfinder->Add (there's no Unite)
Do you mean it is possible to apply the Pathfinder->Add operation in our Java script ? This is basically what I am looking for. I am looking for the command that addresses exactly that and will apply Pathfinder->Add idiomatically for us.
Autodesk Maya has a very helpful Editor for these cases. It is called Scrip editor and basically shows you every operation you perform in mel script. Is there a way to find out what command we have to add in order to apply Pathfinder->Add to our script?

How can i use gradient tool in Illustrator

Hello,
I am trying to use gradient tool in illustrator.
My image is active but how can i start using gradient tool.
I clicked the tool and tried to drag with my mouse but, i can not activate the tool itself.
Can any one help me, I am using CS4 extended with Mac.
Thank you very much.
Steve

First in order to use the gradient tool you must have a gradient fill applied to an object not an raster image it can be a vector illustration..
Select the object or objects or groups of objects
Now click on the gradient bar in the Gradient Panel while the object(s) are still selected that will fill the object with the default gradient.
You can also use a gradient swatch in the Swatches panel, you can make a gradient swatch as well.
Now your object(s) is filled with the default gradient fill.
Now in the tool panel select the gradient tool this will allow you to control the way the gradient is oriented and applied to the object.
Now you can change the colors and add colors to you gradient by clicking on the color markers below the gradient bar which will bring up the color or swatches panels.
Now finally and this is the most important factor to consider you have to purchase a book and or tutorials and the book that will probably do you the most good at this stage is Mordy Golding's Real World Illustrator CS 4 this you shoud do before you go any further. Honest.

How can i add a new tool in adobe illustrator tool box ?

Hi,
I want to create a new tool in Adobe illustrator tool box, which calls another application. I am a beginner in Adobe illustrator plug-in programming.
Please help me................
Thanks in advance

Much easier with a toolkit but you could use ADO objects,
get connection, make a SQL object "INSERT record INTO table where ...."
Execute the parameterized query
Free up record sets data
close connection when done.
This is a very simplified version

Can I embed a full shell script inside an applescript?

I have a friend who is running Tiger on a PPC Mac and wants to download a large number of files from the web. Unfortunately, this friend is barely able to do basic web browsing with Safari or Firefox.
I thought of just sending him a shell script with a lot of curl commands, but I don't suppose making it executable on my Mac would make it executable on his. I would like to be able to send him an Applescript that he could just run by clicking on it, but it would be awkward to make each curl command a separete shell script within the applescript..
Is there a way of directly including in an applescript a multi-line shell script as a single entity that invokes only one shell? I know I can do it by putting the shell script in a separate file and have the applescript give it the necessary permissions, but then I'd have to explain to my friend where to put the shell script!

While it is possible to do this in the Applescript if the shell script gets at all complicated escaping characters and debugging will be much harder then it needs to be.
For example taking twtwtw's example and just adding one Applescript variable gives:
set dir to POSIX path of (choose folder)
set ss to "cd " & dir & "
echo 'This is a file list for the \"" & dir & "\" folder'
echo
ls -l"
set dlf to do shell script ss
display alert dlf giving up after 10
Twtwtw's suggestion of creating an Applescript application bundle is, I believe, the best way to go. You can keep the shell script and Applescript separate making maintenance and debugging much simpler and your friend just gets one 'file' to install and run.

Is there a way to embed an image inside a script?

I've a logo I use on a user interface. Right now I'm opening the image from a file, is there a way to embed the image inside the script so I don't have to distribute the image with the script?

xbytor, of the photoshop scripting forum has a tool kit that you can download & instal. The majority is to do with PS but part of that contains some conversions that 'may' be of use to you… See this recent post in the Photoshop forum…

After using an ExtendScript (via ESTK) Illustrator becomes corrupted and "Can't open illustration."

Hey, thanks for reading.
I'm having a strange problem with Illustrator CS5 and ESTK CS5. I'm new to writing ExtendScripts, so I haven't a clue what could be going wrong here but here's the skinny:
I've written the following code, which is very specialized to the exact document I'm working with. Using the ExtendScript Toolkit, the script goes through the following loops:
The primary problem:
For some reason, running this script causes Illustrator to become somehow corrupted. I can continue working with the document as long as it is open, but if I try to close it and re-open it, I get the infuriatingly unhelpful error dialog "Can't open illustration." With no extra details.
The same error comes up if I try to open any other .ai files. Shutting down and rebooting doesn't fix the problem. I have to completely uninstall Illustrator, then re-install it before it will work again. And even then, if I try to open the ExtendScript-corrupted file the whole Illustrator app gets corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
Oh, also Illustrator itself shows up as "(Not responding)" while the script is running, but the ESTK console clearly shows that the script is chugging along as expected.
Specifics about the script:
There are 4 "Buttons" on the document, and a library full of nearly-identical symbols in the Library (different colored backgrounds for the buttons).
The script cycles through every symbol in the library, replacing and deleting instances of the previous symbol.
Then, for each symbol, it cycles through an array (technically an object-literal) of { language-code: "string" } pairs, and saves a .png of each artboard for each word.
What follows is a pared-down version of the full script:
(I tried to add a few $.sleep(10); calls, hoping that maybe just a brief slowdown in the processes might help. It didn't.)
This script (in its original form) outputs a ton of files very, very quickly.
Script Example
var folder = Folder.selectDialog();                     // Ask for a folder choice.
var aDoc = app.activeDocument;                        // Declare an active Document reference.
var textLayer = aDoc.layers.getByName('text');   // Get the text layer, for moving it back/forward
var textFrms = aDoc.textFrames;                       // Get all text frames, for language swap
var allSymbols = aDoc.symbols;                         // Get array of all symbols in the symbol library
var allSymbolItems = aDoc.symbolItems;            // Get an array of all symbol instances in the active document
var helpTextArray =
    en: "help",
    az: "Kömək",
    cs: "Nápověda",
    da: "Hjælp",
    de: "hilfe",
    el: "Bοήθεια",

Are there best practices that I'm unaware of here that could be causing this corruption?
Does anyone know what could be happening?
The only error I ever get is "Can't open illustration." There's never anything more helpful, so I have no idea what could be going wrong.
If there's any more information that would be of use to anyone I'd be happy to share. This is wasting a lot of my time and making me pull my hair out like crazy,

I have not had the time to look over your script but at a glance there are a few things I would handle differently…
Firstly returning a document to a given state… If you play with this snippet you can see that app.undo() returns to the last called app.redraw() if there is one else it undo's the whole script…
#target illustrator
doSymbols();
function doSymbols() {
    var doc = app.activeDocument;
    var sym = doc.symbols[0];
    for ( var i = 0; i < 4; i++ ) {
        var foo = doc.symbolItems.add( sym );
        foo.position = Array( i * 72, -( i * 72 ) );
        app.redraw(); // Comment this out to see…
    app.undo(); // Returns to last redaw state if any…?
Secondly your symbols… You know you can just change the symbol instance's symbol reference…? If they are almost the same particualy size then its an easy swap…?
#target illustrator
doSymbols();
function doSymbols() {
    var doc = app.activeDocument;
    var sym = doc.symbols[1]; // Next symbol in the palette
    for ( var i = 0; i < 4; i++ ) {
        doc.symbolItems[i].symbol = sym;
        app.redraw();

How can I embed a HTML document onto my webpage?

What I am trying to do: I am trying to make an image that has links to urls from different parts of the image.
What I have done so far: I have built a photoshop image to embed on my webpage, following the instructions offered by many online forums, but cannot actually embed it as it isn't a url.
Firstly, I sliced up an image, adding url's and alt tage etc to each slice. Then I did:
File > Save for web > (Prest: JPEG High) > Save > (entered my file name) Format: HTML and Iamges > Save
When I locate my file where I saved it, it has been saved as a Chrome HTML Document, but I can't then embed this on my website, using the 'embed code' tool I normally use. I presume this is because it doesn't begin with http:// ?
Here is the HTML document I have made: file:///C:/Users/Daniel/Desktop/UK%20map%20interactive/Afternoon/UK-map-locations.html
(If you can see this) This is the image I want and the links are working too but it's getting this onto an existing webpage.
Other pages I have seen have talked about iamge maps, but I take it using the slice tool is better for what I am trying to acheive?
Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated.

One: Users can't see links on your local desktop. You would have to upload the files somewhere. Two: Images generally don't contain links. URLs are meta information build around the image in HTML. Three: Because of the previous point, whether you use sliced images or an image map doesn't matter, if you have no way of inserting the information into the native HTML structure of the web pages. If at all, you would open the HTML file in a suitable editor like Dreamweaver (or even a basic text editor) and copy&paste it into the web page sourcve code, but you'd still have to upload the image(s). The rest we can't know. You have not provided any link to the web site or told us which hosting provider you use. From your description it sounds like one of those "free" providers that restrict user's options to customize to the bare minimum and the rest is based on templates and plastered with advertising. In any case, the solution is not in Photoshop and you would have to read up on web design basics, HTML, CSS and al lthat on a more general level or review your hosting provider's guides on how to set all this up.

What sort of video can i embed in muse?

i have youtube videos embedded in my site no problem. i tried to embed a funny or die video, but it wouldn't work. am i limited to using youtube videos? are there other sites i can/cannot embed video from?

You should be able to use any embed code, since the embed code is designed to be portable. I tried embedding a video from Funny or Die and had no issues. Is it possible you had inserted another script in your page that was causing a conflict? Do you have the same problem with any video from Funny or Die or just the one?
Are you using the embed code from this section of Funny or Die:
And just to be sure, does the video play when you switch to Preview mode, Preview the page in the browser, or when you publish?
Best regards,
Corey

How can I Embed Video

I'm trying to create an application that allows a user to
combine several types of media files into one swf file that can
then be passed around and viewed elsewhere. How can I embed a video
into the swf file? It won't work if you just use the Embed keyword.
Any ideas?

To insert a video in a Pages document it's really simple.
You open *_Pages User Guide_* and you use the Search tool to find the word "video".
As I'm not a bad guy, I will add that it's described page 24 (in the English version)
This said, I'm not sure that you will be able to play the video in an exported PDF.
In fact, I'm quite sure that you can't.
I don't have an available video file to make tests.

Tool Tip / GUI-script battle

I've got a slider that invokes a handler that performs some AppleScript GUI scripting ( ... unfortunate, yes, but there's no other way.)
The slider has a Tool Tip.
If I click and drag outside of the slider's mouseDown region, no problem. The GUI stuff works as expected.
If I drag inside the slider's mouseDown region, the ToolTip appears at it designated time, as if I were hovering. This causes a NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4 (1) error. Certainly makes sense that I'd get an error when the Tool Tip comes to the front. But I'm confused as to why it appears. None of my non-GUI related sliders have this problem.
Suggestions?
Here are a few other Tool Tip questions:
1) Can I increase or decrease the display length for all tool tips?
2) Is it possible to keep tool tips visible indefinitely while the user hovers the mouse over the object, closing on mouseLeave?
3) Can I toggle all Tool Tips to enabled or disabled?
Thanks, John

Can Servlet embed flash??

hi,all
Recently,I've start write servlet code,and client UI which use flash application.But I have problem with write out page through servlet.
I want to know can servlet embed flash (swf.file).Below I post some section of my code.
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException,IOException

You should use the path to the .swf file, i.e. /myapp/flash/whatever.swf

Illustrator path to Presets/Scripts including locale

Hi,
I've made a little jsx Illustrator script I'd like to pack as an extension.
Looked at MXI tech note Path Tokens appending and found the $presets token.
Unfortunately it does NOT include the locale in it's path.
For example, my path is /Applications/Adobe Creative Suite 5/Adobe Illustrator CS5/Presets.localized/en_GB/Scripts
For other locales that will be different and the $presets toke doesn't help, it's the sames as $illustrator/Presets.localized as far as I can tell.
How can can I set the path of my script to Illustrator's Scripts folder from my MXI ?

Hello Carl,
Thank you very much for taking your time for this.
It looks promising, but unfortunately this doesn't fully work as expected.
I've updated XManConfig.xml as advised and repackaged/installed my script
but it gets written into en_US instead of en_GB.
Not sure how the $LOCALE token works.
The 'workaround' I have in place at the moment works, but it's pretty messy/hacky:
I copy the script for EVERY locale illustrator has.
Even with this, I'm not sure if all the possible install locales are the ones that are listed
in the Illustrator Download page:

          <file source="Save Selection Coordinates.jsx" destination="$presets/cs_CZ/Scripts/" shared="true" />
