Illustrator CS5 Changing dot lpi and angle dialog box not opening

Hello! I am having trouble with Illustrator CS5 changing the dot lpi and angle. I have my problem typed out below the image. Please help if you can! Thank you!

You could also save yourself a lot of work by creating an ink template .ait with all of the angle/frequency values preset.
1) Simply create a new document, size the artboard to your typical size and create a series of color chips (squares) each colored with one of your typical inks. It looks like you're doing t-shirt seps so you probably have about 20 or so inks you use all the time.
2) Go into the print settings and set all of their angle and frequency values and click done.
3) Choose File->Save As Template (you can delete the color chips if you want at this point, the swatches will remain)
Now whenever you start a new document, choose File -> New From Template
Any new artwork you create can be colored with the existing swatches and you'll find the angle / frequency settings are already set.
Any forum posts links send to my twitter @ask_illustrator will be answered at the forum and via twitter.

  • Camera Raw Dialog box not opening automatically

    When I try to open a raw image in photoshop CS3 for some reason the camera raw plugin dialog box is not automatically opening and I get a message that says "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file" I know I am missing something simple but how do i get the dialog box to open?

    You need to make sure that the specific camera model is supported by the version of the ACR plug-in you have installed on your machine.
    The current version of ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) is ACR 4.5 and there is also ACR 4.6beta.
    What version are you running and what camera generated your raw files?

  • Adobe Illustrator CS5 - Missing required plugins.BrS pencil tool/will not open program

    Hi!
    We hve downloaded a trial version of Adobe Illustrator CS5 and we are not able to open it. We followed Step 1 and Step 2 and then opened up the Zip version.I also have Windows Vista Home Premium Copyright 2007.
    Would anyone know how I can access it?
    Jana

    Reinstall the app with proper admin privileges and also do run it that way. Sounds very much liek mundane permissions issues where some things don't get installed and/or the program cannot establish its user-specific configuration...

  • Save Dialog Box not Opening

     I have  SQL 2012 running on a Windows server 2012.   I just loaded the Visual Studio Business Intelligence Studo 2012 that I downloaded from Microsoft.  My problem is that when I click "Save Copy of package.dtsx
    As..." , instead of getting the "Save Copy of Package dialog box"  , I get the regular generic windows Save Copy of box for saving to a directory file.  
    Is there some sort of configuration I need to do to have  Save Copy of Package dialog box popup?

    Hi jd51057,
    When we click “Save Copy of <package file> As” on the File menu in Project Deployment Model, we can only save the package on the disk.
    Please note that the procedures in the
    article is about Package Deployment Model. So if we want to open the Save Copy of Package dialog box, we should change the Model first, then refer the steps in the article.
    To convert the Model from Project Deployment Model to Package Deployment Model, please right-click the project to select “Convert to Package Deployment Model” option in the Solution Explorer. If a package uses features unique to the project deployment model,
    such as parameters, then the package cannot be converted. So please avoid use features unique to the project deployment model.
    The following screenshot is for your reference:
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,

  • CR 2013 chart dialog boxes not open

    Hello
    I have a Crystal Reports 2013 SP2 version 14.1.2.1121 for report design. I Can create new chart and chart expert opens, but if i try to open chart options dialog never exists. Load Template... nothing. Format Backgroud... nothing. Series Options... nothing. Chart just blinks but nothing happens. But Trendlines... and Save as Template and Chart expert opens normally. I already tried uninstall and install but no effect.
    Any tips ? This is unbelievable annoying i can only use default charts.

    I appreciate all responses particularly from an "Official Adobe" human being!
    Unfortunately, a significant amount of effort has been expended with no joy here.
    I have done the following;
    (1) examined every plug-in folder for duplicates - None found
    (2) deleted the symlinks (aliases) Topaz created referencing their plug-ins in /Library/Application Support
    (3) reinstalled the Topaz bundle - no change
    (4) Spoke at length with Topaz support and have been assured that all of their plug-ins are CS6 compatible.
    (5) Have had the same conversation with Nik regarding their 2 plug-ins - assured that they are compatible.
    Frankly I'm stumped here. I've combed my system in everyway I can without any change in PS behavior - on Open it defaults to blank and "Save as" selects the wrong format.
    Question for the experts. Would deleting PS completely and then reinstalling make a difference or am I now in uncharted territory and on my own?
    Thanks for all assistance,
    Robert
    Still need to save as TIFF but can't seem to get there.

  • Why does it take so long for the Open, Save, or Save As Dialog Boxes to Open?

    I'm having a problem throught CS6 with the Open, Save, or Save As dialog boxes not opening for a period of time after clicking on the desired functions.  It can take over a minute just to get the Open dialog box up to browse for a file.  Eventually, the dialog boxes open, but during the time that it's trying to open, the program is unresponsive.  It is happening with all of my CS6 programs.  I have unistalled and reinstalled with no fix.  The programs are updated.  Anyone else having this trouble?  Any solutions?

    Thanks for your response.  The system is a Windows 7 64-bit system with 4GB RAM installed.  I am not trying to save anywhere in particular.  By default, it would open to the user's documents, and does eventually, but it currently just sits for about a full minute before doing anything.  This machine was saving properly when CS6 was first installed about 5 months ago. 
    I've checked for unconnected network drives. I've also renamed the Illustrator preferences file based on a reccomendation that I found elsewhere.  However, neither of these helped.
    I can provide screenshots or anything else that's needed.

  • CS5 slow to get the 'open' and 'save' dialog box over networked computer.

    I have been having this problem since the suite was installed, but recently has gotten much slower. Any time I click open or save it takes 8-10 seconds just for the dialog box to come up.  CS1 was lightening fast - I know that was ages ago, but I can't help compare the two.  I have the same problem with InDesign and Illustrator. The suite is running on a Windows 7 machine through a home network, accessing files from an XP machine as well as a Buffalo Linkstation.  Once the dialog box comes up, and I double click, the file is pretty quick to appear.  I have researched online and I believe the problem to be somewhere in the network or the settings.  The network is quick, Windows Explorer has no delay in opening or finding files, nor do other programs outside of Creative Suite. I did an experiment to narrow down the problem - I closed Photoshop, unplugged the network cable, and reopened the program.  AMAZING - it was SO FAST to open the dialog box for both opening and saving files!  I then closed Photoshop again, plugged the network cable back in, and opened Photoshop.  It was back to the slow opening of the dialog box.  Everything else in the programs runs fine - no delay when performing operations in any of the Creative Suite - it has to do with the network and how CS is looking for the files.  Can anyone help me, I am so frustrated - this is adding unnecessary time to everything I do and I dread opening and saving any files!!

    Once again - thank you!
    We used to have a network storage device attached to our home network, but it crashed and we replaced it with another model.  A while back I had added it as an item to display in the places bar.  When we removed it from the network, the link on the left side disapeared, so I forgot all about it.  When I read your posting it jogged my memory.  I searched the subject to remember how I had made the change and found this posting from Adobe Community: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/795196 (its in #6).  I found the original storage device in the places bar, removed it and replaced it with the new device.  I opened Photoshop and Acrobat and both open and save dialog boxes appear as they should - the problem has been resolved!  THANK YOU!

  • I can't open an .ai file in Illustrator without a dialog box appearing "Open PDF."  I have no idea what I can't open it as an Illustrator file (and not a PDF)

    Once I open a page as a PDF, all my layer info is lost.  I've tried opening it on two machines and the dialog box continues to appear.  Again, it's not a PDF extension. 
    Thanks for the help!

    Since you're sure you saved it back to CS5, the issue might have been caused by saving directly to the server. Illustrator does not particularly like that.
    90% of corrupt files are caused by saving directly to the server.
    You might try and first copy the file to your harddisk and then open it from there. Opening files directly from the server is an issue as well.

  • Open and Save dialog boxes are sorted reverse alpahbetically by default

    I have a user that experiences the same frustrating experience every time she restarts Apple Mail. All of her open and save dialog boxes in Mail are sorted from Z to A. She can click the name field to change the sort, but it will return to Z-A if she quits and reopens the program. The Finder is set (and stays) at A-Z. Other applications do not exhibit this problem. I am loathe to reset the preferences since that means having to set up accounts again. Restarting the computer and removing user caches made no difference. Any suggestions?  This is an iMac Mid 2008 running Mac OS X 10.6.8.

    I solved my own question through trial and error.
    Just select "None" on the dropdown selector (see screen capture, above) and the Open/Save dialog will revert to the older version.

  • Open and Save Dialog Box Font Size

    Greetings. Does anyone know how to change the font and icon sizes in Open and Save Dialog boxes in OSX 10.8? Back in Snow Leopard days, the parameters were stored in the users .GlobalPreferences.plist. But they do not appear to be there - or at least I don't recognize them in OSX 10.8. I recently started using a 27 inch Cinema Display, and the fonts are a bit small for me.
    I appreciate any help anyone can offer.

    Good question!  Do submit feedback to Apple.  Maybe if enough of us complain about this fundamental issue, they'll finally listen!

  • Open and save dialog boxes just show earlier and can't be sorted

    Mountail Lion has new open and save dialog boxes that are displayed in groupings by date and other variables.
    My Photoshop CS5 shows "Previous 7 days", "Earlier", etc. I can no longer adjust this sorting. Often, just the "Earlier" shows and current files are missing from the box. I used the sorting option but can't sort within the list.
    My inDesign files still use the earlier open and save dialog box. Where can I switch between these options?
    Photoshop Open:
