Simple dashed stroke in illustrator with javascript?

I just need to get started understanding the dashed stroke portion in path drawing in illustrator.
Any clues? Thanks in advance.

what Larry said
var idoc = app.activeDocument;
var ipath = idoc.selection[0]; // select your path
alert(ipath.strokeDashes.toSource()); // read the current dash/gap settings
ipath.strokeDashes = [2,3,2,1]; // change it to your needs

How can I "outline stroke" a dashed stroke?

Hi!
When you have a dashed stroke and you try to apply on it the „outline stroke” command the result is one single rectangle. But I need many small rectangle. Any Idea?
Sorry for the english.

Joe.

Thank you Jesse it works but there is a little different. It works by "Object > Flatten Transparency" on CS1 Macintosh version and it works by "Object > Expand App.." on CS4 Windows version.
Thx a lot.
Best Regard.
Zeee.

How do I specify photo paper for printing?

In a much earlier version and old computer I had all kinds of options of paper choice ( glossy, mat, presentation). How do I specify paper now?

Expand appearance is what will happen when exporting to PDF or other formats anyway, but it's rather part of the problem than part of the solution.
When expanding bristle brushes you get millions of paths. and when flattening their transparency you get millions more. Any service provider will get rather upset at you for sending this kind of stuff.
What you instead want to do is rasterize them at the correct resolution (depending on wether the graphics will be resized before printing or the printing process). BTW: that's what Illustrator tells you in an error warning when saving a file with more than 30 strokes in it.

How do I specify an external viewer for animation?

I occasionally receive PDF files that have accompanying animations (.avi, etc) that Adobe acrobat reader 9.4.1 expects to play using an external viewer.
On one of my computers (Linux, KDE), it launches xine. On another (also Linux, KDE), it launches noatun.
How do I specify which external viewer it should launch?

This is handled through file associations defined in the OS. Adobe Reader is simply passing the file off to the OS.
In your file manager/desktop, find a plain AVI file, right click on it to get the contextual menu. You should be able to set your preferred associated program from there.

How can we specify the Mailbox for Notes?

In Mail.app, how can we specify the Mailbox for Notes (where the new notes will be resided)? It is now 'On My Mac'. I wish to change to my IMAP Mailbox so it sync with my iPhone by just checking email (not by syncing on iTunes).
Thanks in advance.

You could use the DecimalFormat or NumberFormat to do the job.
double number 1234.567;
DecimalForamt df = new DecimalFormat("###.##");
String s = df.format(number);or
double number 1234.567;
NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
nf.setMaximumFractionDigits(2);
/* if needed.
   nf.setMaximumIntegerDigits(value);
   nf.setMinimumFractionDigits(value);
   nf.setMinimumIntegerDigits(value); */
String s = nf.format(number);I didn't test the codes but they should work. For more information, please consult the documentations.

How Can i specify multiple server names in rwservlet.properties file?

How Can i specify multiple server names in rwservlet.properties file without clustering?
I am using oracle 10g Application server. we have 3 servers Repsvr1, RepSvr2 and RepSvr3. Now i need to configure rwservlet.properties file to point to these servers based on any running report. i got 3 keymap files with reports info.
Sample entry in the key map file is:
key1: server=Repsvr1 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path2\reports\Report1.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
key2: server=Repsvr2 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path3\reports\Report2.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
rwservlet.properties file letting me to enter only one servername. Even though i merged all 3 keymap files into 1, still i have the server name issue. If i leave the server to the default name still i am getting the below error.
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server Repsvr1 failed. However, i know the default rep_<servername> would be used incase we dont have SERVER=<value> parameter in the rwservlet.properties file.
If i specify the servername in the rwservlet.properties file then only Repsvr1 reports are working fine and other 2 server reports are giving the same error like
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server <<Server Name>> failed.
how can i configure the info which will work all 3 reports. 2 Port servers are invoking using oracle forms and report server is invoking using ASP pages.
If i specify Server name & Key map file in rwservlet.properties one at a time, all the reports are working without any error, whenever i am trying to integrate all 3 to workable i am getting binding error. if i exclude the server from rwservlet.properties still i am getting the same error.

My RELOAD_KEYMAP setting is YES only.As i said If i specify Server name & Key map file in rwservlet.properties one at a time, all the reports are working without any error.
keymap file entries
key1: server=Repsvr1 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path2\reports\Report1.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
key2: server=Repsvr2 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path3\reports\Report2.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
If i use http://server.domain:port/reports/rwservlet? cmdkey = key1 should bring the report from Repsvr1 and http://server.domain:port/reports/rwservlet? cmdkey = key2 should bring the report from Repsvr2, but i am getting an error from Repsvr2 saying that REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server repsvr2 failed.
Only Servername Repsvr1 is in rwservlet.properties file. Now what is the best option to by pass the server from rwservlet.properties file and should be from keymap file. if i comment server name in rwservlet.properties file still i am getting REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server <<Server Name>> failed error for both keys.

How can I specify the default tab in a CHM Output?

My company uses CHM-based help for some of its products. We build the CHM files from RoboHelp 9, and while these CHM files don't really have a full Index attached to them, the Index tab shows up in the output anyway. Unfortunately, we are suddenly seeing that when the CHM file is launched from our program, the Index tab is displayed by default. We'd rather have the Contents tab be the default look, especially considering that the Index does not exist.
I have poked around into how you can specify a default tab for a CHM file, and the only information I have found suggests that using a CHM file creates a file (HH.dat) that specifies which tab should be displayed on a user-by-user basis, and that the last tab displayed when you close the CHM should be the first one displayed when you re-open it. While this is true if you open the CHM independent from the product, when you launch it from our program, it's all Index, all the time.
So, my question is: How can I specify the default tab for a CHM file? Or, failing that, how can I excise the Index tab from my CHM output.

Hi there
This will be something up to your application developer to resolve. When s/he issues the call to open the CHM, there are parameters that may be used to always open with the desired tab "in front".
Point your developer to the link below and advise that s/he is most likely interested in the section titled: Programming Tips.

How can I change a brush stroke to a pencil stroke after I've drawn it?

How can I change a brush stroke to a pencil stroke after I've drawn it? Is this possible?

h,
As I (mis)understand it, (in effect) just by clicking the Reduce to Basic Appearance button in the Appearance palette (and setting the desired Stroke Weight, if different from 1pt).
The Pencil Tool creates a uniform width path like the Pen Tool, producing Anchor Points like the Artbrush Tool. So when you reduce to basic appearance you will get a path corresponding/identical to the one you would create with the Pencil Tool.

How do I specify the JRE i wish to use to Run an Application.

Hi Everyone;
Please bear with me if you read this before.
I have installed java 1.3.1 and java 1.4.1 in that order.
The JRE used by default is java 1.4.1
How do I specify the JRE I wish to use to Run an Application from a command prompt.
Example:
Java -something org.jboss.Main
help ??
Stephen

I was a lil embarrassed. I told my supervisor that the installation of java overwrites the JRE and that's that.
My supervisor took 10 minutes and went through it and found java.exe in the System32 file.
The java.exe file is found in guess where "C:/WINNT/System32/" folder how nice. C:/WINNT/System32/ is in the path. Not only that it's the first entry in the path. So when I execute java it is not using java.exe any one of the java files that I got from the java website.
So I don't have any control over the version.
Oh well;
That's life. That's 1 for my supervisor.

How do you have the bottom stroke of a table show up using Table Styles and Cell Styles only?

I am using InDesign CS6, and I want to create a Table Style that has the bottom stroke show up, but does not have a table border, such as:
However, whenever I try to change the Table or Cell strokes so that the last stroke shows up, I get the entire table border, or some strange combination of borders:
Does anyone have any insight on how I can get the bottom stroke to show up while preserving my other stroke properties? Since I work with long documents, it's necessary to be able to control all of my tables through Table Styles and Cell Styles, and not by manually changing each and every table with the Stroke palette.
For reference, here are the my current Table Style properties and the resulting table:

Michael Murphy is the InDesign style-meister. He wrote "Adobe InDesign Styles" for Adobe Press, and did a great Lynda.com title on InDesign styling. Here's what he says in the book:
"As mentioned at the beginning of this chapter, with all the power of table and cell styles, it is important to understand not only how they work and what they can do for you, but also to understand their limitations.
"Two formatting features missing in table and cell styles have already been discussed: You will always have to set the column width and row height of cells when applying a table style for the first time, and you will always have to convert body rows to header and/or footer rows every time you apply a table style for first time or update the table's data....
"But there's another kind of limitation that's important to keep in mind as you are designing tables: It is very easy to design a table that cannot be completely defined by a table style. In many cases, you'll need to define an extra cell style or two that lets you complete for formatting. [my emphasis]."
So I think that's what you have to do: Apply another cell style on top of the cells at the bottom of the table after applying the table style.

How do you specify a "custom data retrieval program" for a query ?

I may have to rebuild an old SQ01 query in ECC 5.0 to get rid of some hyphens in structure field names.
The query gets its data from a custom retrieval program.
How do I specify the custom retrieval program when (and if) I redo the query?
Thanks
Dave

When you go to SQ02, ente the infoset name and click the change button, then on the next screen, click Go To, Global Properties, notice here is the same dialog when you create the infoset, notice the radibuttons, notice the one for data retreival by program, I think this is what you are looking for, but as you can see here you will not be able to change it. I think you may have to re-create the infoset as well if you want to change this.

How to create dotted or dash rectangle in Photoshop?

Hi All,
Is there any easy way in Photoshop CS3 or later Extended to create "dotted or Dask" rectangles? I am talking about the border of the rectangle to be "dotted or dash" line rather usual line? If there is any Actionscript (free) that will be fanastic.
Thanks in advance...

Photoshop CS6 makes it easy.
With Photoshop CS5.5 and older, the best way is to make a path in the shape you want, then stroke it with a brush that's been prepared with the proper spacing and direction dynamics to cause the stroke to be dotted or dashed.
Generally speaking you can find a lot of tutorials for doing it via Google. What I might do is to search for something along the lines of dashed stroke photoshop, possibly also adding the word tutorial in the mix, then use the Google Images search, find one that looks like what you're trying to accomplish, and click through the Website For This Image link.
Here's one of the first I ran across with such a search: http://www.techimo.com/forum/graphic-design-digital-photography/110702-mini-tutorial-photo shop-making-dotted-dashed-lines-complex-path.html
