Smart Guides should not consider clipped away art

Illustrator always seems to have trouble with parts of art that are hidden in clipping masks. If parts of an object are 'clipped away', then that's it. They shouldn't be seen, selectable or anything by anything except the Direct Selection Tool, right?
In older versions you were able to select a portion of an object which was hidden beyond the bounds of a clipping mask. Thank god, you fixed that one.
My current problem, though, is that I need to use Smart Guides to snap a print ad to a new artboard. But I can't get it to work because rather than recognizing the border of the ad, it's trying to snap the hidden portion of "clipped away" art. (See photo)

I don't have that problem (CS5). I am using the selection tool and able to snap the clipped imaged to the artboard edge.

Smart Guides Do Not Work

My smart guides do not work. From the time I loaded CS5 they have not worked. If you go to View > Grids & Guides > the Smart Guides are grayed out.
Then if you go to the Control Panel > View Options, the smart Guides are not grayed out they are checked.
I have looked around and read trying to find out whats up with these guides but have not found anything the works. I have also uninstalled InDesign and reinstalled. This stall did not work.
If anyone has any idea of why or how to get the guides to work that would be great.
Thanks for your help...

You must have Snap to Document Grid enabled.

Is there a possibility should not consider available quantity at time of MR

Sir,
Is there a possibility should not consider available quantity at time of MRP planning?
Example:
Available stock: 100
Planning stock: 100 (MD61)
Schedule line to be generate: 100 Qty (Exclude the available quantity at time of MRP planning)
regards,
sampath

Dear Sampath/Raj,
1) Move the stock to particular storage location for which you don't want to be consider by MRP
2) Now go to OMIR t-code, input value as 1 for that particular storage location
3) Go to MMSC, input value as 1 for that particular storage location
4) Go to MRP - 4 view Down you can find field Storage location input value as 1
5) Now run MRP, system will not consider stock of that particular storage location

Smart Guides Randomly Not Working

Hi,
I've noticed in Illustrator CS4 (with all the updates) that Smart Guides does not seem to work on some files.
I make a new file in CS4 and then they automatically seem to work.
I have tried re-saving the file and turning on and off the Smart Guide settings and playing with the Control button.
I attached a sample file where it's not working as a demo.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

They work just turn off snap to grid or snap to pixel.

Smart Guides -Illustrator not really align rectangles CC2014

I'm testing the new version of Illustrator CC 2014 in windows 8.1 and all good except new bounding box of the rectangle tool, and if I want to align two rectangles with the same valiéndome features Smart Guides, these do not really line up, how when I make eh I reached the point of alignment of the figure that I have reference, as when zooming clearly see that not align myself really, we should mention that I have enabled the option to align grid of pixels, and also this does not happen with other tools like ellipse, or polygon, rectangle and only rounded rectangle, examples:
PD, and restore preferences, and reinstall the program and the problem persists

axs,
You may use old fashioned plain rectangles instead of live ones.
To be able to create a normal old fashioned rectangle, you can use the free script created by Pawel, see this thread:

Sales orders with expired dates should not consider in MRP

Hi,
My requirement is that when i m running MRP for sales order for which expiry date has already been lapsed or over.sysyem should not create any mrp elements(Planned order) for such Sales orders.
We have maintained one Z table which gives the validity period(Expiry date) for sales order according to their respective division.
if MRP running date lies after the date of expiry of sales order, system shoul not allow to run MRP for that sales order or it should pop some message while executing MRP run before saving it.
How we can achieve this?
Pls suggest.....
Rgds,
Yogesh Thorat..

Since as per standard, there is no concept called validity period for sale order and you are maintaining in a zee table, definitely your requirement has to be met with user exit or function module or some enhancements.
Perhaps, you can try with MRP Enhancements
a) LMDR2001 or
b) LMDZU001
to meet your requirement.

Snap to? Smart Guides? Not sure what the issue is but it's annoying.

Just made the big step up from CS2 to CS5. Lots of changes as to be expected but otherwise a smooth transition. Nice work Adobe.
One recurring issue has got me baffled and annoyed. It appears to be a snap-to function yet I'm unable to locate the place where it might be disabled.
In my previous version of InDesign resizing window sizes and shapes was a fluid and easy motion. Now it's staggering and akward. The text and picture boxes want to snap on an unseen grid. I understand how this can be a useful function for some kinds of work but it also gets in the way of composing an image.
Any suggestions on how to disable this?
Presently, I have both Smart Guides and Snap to Document Grid UNCHECKED in the View menu yet I'm remain unable to smoothly and fluidly size my text and picture boxes.
Thanks!

There's another new feature, Live Screen Drawing, that's on by default, but for many users it causes real choppiness in moving around on screen. It's at the bottom of the Interface section of the preferences. Try setting it to Delayed. That will allow you to have a live preview when you really want it by clicking, then holding for a moment before you drag, but moving immediately will give you what you are used to in CS2.
I actually think Smart Guides are worth using. They save me a TON of time.

My smart guides are not working in Illustrator CC

I've check my settings, view, everything. I cannot seem to get smart guides to work. ( and yes, I've made sure I haven't just pressed command U )

J.Beech,
I don't know how but I've fixed it.
That is a pity. It is an old well known issue, or was until you came along, or rather still is because you cannot tell how.

Why are my Red Line Edge Smart Guide indicators not showing up or continuing the image to the edge o

I have been messing with a single long page layout with scrolling effects. So I have 2 or 3 other objects behind another object pair that I have been trying over and over to get to extend to the edge of the browser by pulling the size anchor of the rectangle object that has a raster fill up to the point where the Red Line Smart Guide line shows up indicating the image will repeat and fill out to the edge of the browser.
The red line seems to only show up for a millisecond will pulling the transform horizontal anchor. Then it snaps past the edge point by 20 pixels. Even when I have "caught" the redline for that millisecond and release the transform anchor, it still doesn't work when previewing or previewing in browser.
Does the object that you want to have repeat to the edge of the browser have to be one object? I have tried experiments with more rectangles with just color fills as well and it's the same sporadic Redline.

In your Muse preferences make sure that your smart guides are turned on:

Production order and planned order qty should not consider in MRP

Dear All,
i do not want to consider the previous month production order qty and plenned order qty (Nothing but WIP qty) in the current momth MRP, but the stock has to consider in MRP.
Example,
Before MRP,
material : XYZ
Stock : 1000
Prod Qty : 500 for 02.04.2008
PIR Qty : 2000 for 02.05.2008
After MRP, the requirement should be as below said,
material : XYZ
Stock : 1000
Prod Qty : 500 for 02.04.2008
PIR Qty : 2000 for 02.05.2008
Pld OrdQty : 1000 for 02.05.2008
For the above requirement ,i have done settings in the availabilty check like , for include planned order and include production order are "DO NOT TAKE IN ACCOUNT".
Even then also the planned order qty is generating for the "500" only.
please give the solution for the above said requirement.
thanx in advance
Regards
Srinivas

hi
MRP will always consider the prod order qty while doing nert req calculation.One thing u can do is TECo the prod orders and un MRP then it wont consider prod order qty.
The Availability check will check whether the components r avalaible or not based on ur scope of check

Smart guides not working

Hello,
I'm working in Illustrator CS4 on a Mac.
In Preferences, I set Smart Guides to 30 degree angles and clicked on Construction Guides.
In View, I clicked on Smart Guides (command U).
However, when I click on an anchor point and try to move it 30 degrees with Smart Guides to guide me, they don't show up.
I've tried restarting the program and turning Smart Guides on/off, but nothing seems to work.
Any idea why the Smart Guide lines don't show up?
Thank you.
Joe

No, I don't think Pixel Preview is the answer.
I've used Smart Guides effectively for years in Illustrator CS3 without Pixel Preview.
Often I draw my objects in Illustrator to appear isometric. So I turn on the Smart Guides to help me draw at 30 degree angles.
As I said, I've done this effectively for years. It's only recently that I noticed that the 30 degree angle guides are not working effectively. On some documents they appear correctly, some they don't appear at all.
I wonder if this is a glitch is CS4.
In the most current document I have, I am able to draw a stroke/line at 30 degrees using Smart Guides. I click to establish an anchor point and then move my curser to establish a second anchor point. When I go to click the second anchor (to create the line), 30 degree Smart Guides appear correctly. I am not in Pixel Preview mode.
However, when I try to move an object (or 2 or more selected anchor points), the 30 degree Smart Guides do not appear.
Can someone try to duplicate the above and see if they get the same results?
Thank you.

Smart Guides Not Showing

Hi,
Smart Guides are not showing when I use Adobe Illustrator CC.
There were several posts in this forum that suggest turning of "snap to grid" and double checking the preferences that smart guides are on. I've done both and provided screenshots.
Smart Guides is very important feature to me. I need it urgently back on.
Thanks

amarzum,
It could be a preference corruption.
You may try to:
1) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
or:
2) Move the folder Other options (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible).

Smart Guides off by a tiny amount

I've recently been working on a project involving a large amount of stroked paths. I'm tracing a scan of a line drawing and have been using the Scissors tool a lot to trim where one path runs into another. When I do this I turn Smart Guides on and use Scissors to "snip" paths at intersections. I'm careful about only clicking when the intersection is highlighted, but occasionally I notice that the trim is a tiny bit off. Usually I'll spot a line's round cap extending a little past the line it "runs into" (as in the image here), and when I zoom in I can clearly tell that the anchor point I created with the Scissors tool is a little off. Often it's more obvious than the image example I've provided. I then have to use Scissors again, usually at max zoom, and I continue on with a slight queasy feeling in my stomach, knowing there are ones out there I haven't caught.
I can't even be sure if this issue is only related to the Scissors tool, it might just be a Smart Guides thing. This is obviously not a crushing problem, but I think this community can respect a desire for precision in vector artwork, not to mention the fact that when I start adding fills I may run into problems. Pathfinder might work better than Scissors here, but I don't need a workaround, there's no reason Smart Guides should be dysfunctional with Scissors.
I've searched past discussions pretty thoroughly and haven't found anything like this. Maybe it's something with my prefs? I've never messed with them -- just started using Illustrator on this machine several months ago. Also, for this project I'm currently working with pixel units with Align to Pixel Grid turned off, if that helps. Can't recall ever experiencing this issue before, although most of my work in Illustrator has been on different machines.
CS6, late 2013 iMac running 10.9.2. Thanks in advance if you have any ideas!

Tara,
You may be haunted by the Align to Pixel Grid ghost.
If so, select everything and untick Align to Pixel Grid in the Transform palette, and also untick Align New Objects to Pixel Grid in the options there.
To avoid it altogether, use a document type without Align to Pixel Grid as the default (RGB documents for web and the like), or change the default.

Order reservation should not get planned in mrp run

Hello friends,
Actually for a finished material i have created one production order by CO01.Because of it for semi finished material system created order reservation.I dont have any stock of semi finished material.Now i want while running the mrp run system should not planned this Order reservation of semifinished material.For these in configuration of availability check (Scope of check T.C OPJJ), I made the settings that system should not consider reservation (i deactivated the tick for include reservation) and for include depend reservation , i selected Donot check.And all these settings i made in checking group 02 and checking rule PP.After doing all these settings than also system is considering the order reservation for semifinished material and generating the planned order for it.
Do i need to do any other configurations?
Thanking you guys in advance.

Hi Jitendra,
Checking Control (OPJJ) has no relation with MRP.It is useful in the case of Plan and Production / Process Order only to find out Missing part.
Now come to MRP again.
You have a choice of only 3 type of stocks to include or exclude them during MRP run while rest of the things like (PO,PR,Reservation etc are consider by default)
Go to OPPQ and after selecting Plant go to Available Stock.You will find that options,
- Stock in Transfer
- Block Stock
- Restricted Stock.
And one more thing Reservation is not a available stock but its one kind requirement and if there is no stock then system will activate the Planning file entry and during next MRP run it will generate Planning proposal also.
Regards,
Dhaval

Smart Guides Bug??

I've been struggling with Tech support since May 22 over the problem with Smart guide not working in Illustrator CS6. Support has recorded my system twice during Connect meetings poked around in my preferences and accomplished nothing. I've added screen shots to Case on the support portal hoping there is a solution but Tech support always emails saying they tried to contact me but were unable. Basicly Smart guides are not showing the dimensions in Illustrator CS6 and leaving a screen artifact. I've deleted the preferences as tech support suggested, reinstalled Illustrator CS6 as tech support suggested and nothing seems to fix the problem. Smart guide work with Illustrator CS5 and Photoshop CS6. Both are on the same system as Illustrator CS6. My question, anyone else have this problem? Is it a bug? Tech support always tries the same old "let me review your case" and then proceeds to do nothing.
Using MacBook Pro 8 Gigs Mac OSX 10.7.4
Illustrator CS6 No dimensions and gray screen artifact.
Smart Guides working in Photoshop CS6
Smart Guides working in Illustrator CS5
Any ideas suggestions similar experiences?

I'm having the same problem on my MacBook Pro 10.7.5. There's another thread on this at http://forums.adobe.com/message/4924146 but no one over there has a solution either. I've also filed a bug report on it, figuring the more people report the bug, the more likely they are to fix it. Here's the bug report page for anyone wishing to do the same: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
I sure wish they would fix this, because it's very annoying to not have these measurements when you're doing precision work. It's been seven months since you reported this and apparently no one has addressed the issue.
