I have Illusrator CS6, and it ask when I close, if I want to save to clipboard. Now the program runs slow. Is there any way to view clipboard and edit and/or delete items that are on it?
View 1 RepliesThe view of the window of my Library is not the way it used to be. I miss for instance the zoom, compare, 'spray' tool etc. Recently I could add and delete items, but now I don't see the arrow to do this(?)

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a script to specify a percentage of the selected items you want to remove.Here is what I have so far.
I still need to work out on the alert prompt and the if statement, but for now, I have the feeling that the selection.length keep changing each time Illustrator delete an object, and I don't know how to make it stick.
var selection = app.activeDocument.selection;
//alert prompt dialog for a percentage of deletion
for (var i = 0; i < selection.length; i++) {
if (Math.random < 0.5) { //need to work out the percentage
alert("yes")
selection[i].remove();
}
}
Is there any way that Autocad can have multiple items placed on the clipboard for insertion use like the Microsoft Office Word program has (up to 24 inputs). This would be a good feature to allow going to one file, copying what you need and then switching to your current drawing file and placing them as needed.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if after drawing an alignment, creating a profile, and profile view, is there a way I can mark items along the alignment so they could show up in the profile view. I am laying out a pipeline and want to have the profile display a marker for items such as tees, elbows, reducers and other items. The marker I would like to use will be something like the vertical style grade break markers.
Also on a side note, as each of these items will have a different name, is there a way that I can add these markers and then have each one with a unique name?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to switch between items without closing out an item while in edit? ie: You have two (or more) items open in edit, and you want to cut from one item and paste on another but you don't want to close out the one you just cut on. I tried using the little arrows on top of the edit workspace, thinking these would be the way to switch items, but they don't do anything, at least for me anyway. I tried looking in the user guide but no luck.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUpon dragging a clip from the library and onto the timeline, is there anyway of knowing which clips have been used already from the library view? In other words, I'd love to see some type of indicator or "check" mark that would allow me to know exactly which clips in the library view are already part of my timeline. Sometimes, there are clips that are sitting in the library that have not been included in my final production.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor some strange reason when I got to work this morning I was unable to view items as I draw. I can see lines as I draw once I specify the first point with ortho on or off, but I can't see shapes (dimensions, circles, rectangles, ellipse, or box) while I draw. Once I select the second point the object does appear but a setting has changed and I can't figure out how to get it back to normal.
View 7 Replies View RelatedUp until mid-December of 2013, I was able to copy vector art out of Illustrator CC and paste it in a non-Adobe application (Comic Life, by Plasq). No hitches, worked great.
Since then, I've upgraded to a new MacPro and downloaded fresh copies of all apps, inclucing Illustrator 17.0.2. Now, when I copy vector art, it pastes code, not art:
<!-- Generator: Adobe Illustrator 17.0.2, SVG Export Plug-In -->
<svg version="1.1"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
xmlns:a="http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeSVGViewerExtensions/3.0/“
... [ the rest is coordinate code for the art ]
So something has changed in how Illustrator manages its clipboard, and specifically, it seems to now copy out SVG, not postscript. And by the way, I've tried checking and unchecking, in various combinations, the Clipboard on Quit preferences, and the result is always the same.
Can SVG clipboard format be turned off? Can I control what format the clipboard uses? And to be clear, I'm not talking about Save As... SVG. I'm talking about how the clipboard copies.
I was wondering if there is a method to purge the clipboard in Illustrator CC other than completely exiting and restarting the program. Apparently there was a "Purge" option under the edit menu in previous incarnations, but have no such option in CC.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow can I look at a plane in custom view like I used to be able to do? I need to rotate a part to its "straight on" view.

I have made up furniture for layout views using the metric detail item template. Probably too many in this model category but it was a short cut to achieving presentation layouts. How can I now filter out certain detail items without zapping the rest. In this case it will be loose furniture but some fixed furniture is needed to remain visible in the next stage construction layout views. I want to do this by view template so that a) the view on sheet can be switched back to the presentation layout and b) keep the sheet as a revision rather than a new sheet.
Its not my preferred way of dong this but I am adapting to another architectural practices standard where sheet numbers are fixed and the layouts (GA's) retain the same number through sketch - tender - construction - as built stages (using a status sheet parameter and revision sequence)
Civil 3D 2013, trying to edit a FG profile through the Profile Entities vista and Profile Layout Parameters dialog box. All entities in the vista are shaded (locked) and will not allow me to edit. Is there something that I am missing here? I should be able to edit the PVIs (or entities) correct? I couldn't find anything in documentation as to why these are shaded and not allowing me to edit them.

I can go to Google Translate and type in a phrase and get it rendered into Arabic, and it looks correct. But when I copy and paste the Arabic characters into Illustrator, the letters that come out (using one of the many Arabic/Farsi fonts I have) aren't the same. It's as if you had "Mary Had A Little Lamb" in Arabic in Google Translate, but when you copy and paste you get "wblwevarrtblempswciartmfe" - total gibberish. I can paste it to a TextEdit file and it looks correct, just not when I paste it into Illustrator.
Here's a screen shot. At the top is a screen shot taken from having pasted it into a TextEdit file. The bottom is the exact same "paste" into Illustrator.
I have text in a drawing that wont edit or delete. I have heard there was a text bug and to fix it set DTEXTED to 1. I have done that, closed out and came back in and the text is still there and will not delete or edit.
View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen I double-click on a text item, AutoCAD used to go to text edit mode, without entering the TEDIT command. This quit working - now I have to enter TEDIT.
Also, when I select items and hit the Delete key, nothing happens. The selected items used to get deleted.
I tried going to the Windows Start menu and resetting all of the settings to the defaults - this didn't work.
I also tried re-installing AutoCAD from my original disk, and that didn't work either.
When I right click downloaded brushes the options Duplicate Brush and Delete brush are greyed out and when I click Edit Brush I can't change anything. That is a problem because from the more than two hundred brushes I have right now I only need/like about 20 or 30. Those options are available only in brushes I created myself, by the way.

So, I went ahead and made a new table, but now I cannot delete the old one, nor move it anywhere.
I checked all of the cells and the table in general, but none of it is locked.
It does not matter if I shift and click left or right, the selection will not highlight in order to move to edit or to delete. It just stopped suddenly.
