Illustrator :: File Options Show Hidden Files
Sep 27, 2012
I'm having an odd problem in AI CS6, and I first want to try trashing my preferences file, but I can't find it (sounding dumb). When searching, I ran across references to user/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS6 Settings/en_US/ but I can't find that either (sounding even dumber). I see users/ myname/ but no library/preferences. I try users/myname/roaming/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS 6 settings /en_us/x64 but nothing there gives me a file folder or a file named preferences (can't feel any dumber). BTW, I am using the file options Show Hidden Files and Show Extensions, and I'm running PC Windows on a 64-bit machine.

When I try to open a pdf with Illustrator (CS5.5), the panel that has you choose the options is hidden. I have to hit my enter key to progress forward,so it seems that the panel is still a step I am taking, but I cannot see it anywhere.

On some Illustrator CS5 documents, when I click inside a text box, no insertion point (aka the blinking vertical line, or blinking cursor) is shown. I can see the edges, and can highlight text, so it's not the show/hide edges preference in view as far as I can tell. And I've switched show/hide edges off and on, even with ctrl-H a few times to make sure. So right now I can't tell where my insertion point or cursor is inside a text box until I start typing or highlighting something. The little blinking vertical line is gone! How do I get it back?

We all hide and unhide things constantly as we work.But when you do a Show All (CTRL+ALT+3), to effectively unhide all hidden objects, is there a way to do so without unhiding all hidden sublayers as well.
When I do a Show All, even sublayers that were hidden when the file was opened (and never unhidden) unhide along with all hidden objects.

I accidently saved files to the "swatches" folder in AI CS5. Now I can retrieve them OR see them when I look in finder. I've used the finder search and nothing. I'm running on a Mac.

More than a problem, this is a doubt. Well, I was working on an illustration, just trying things here and there, and so I have many different layers of elements, some of them I want show, and some of them not (I don't want to delete them though, cause they may be useful later). At some point I realized that when I saved the file and went to see the preview (space bar) in its folder, the image had both hidden and shown elements.
So this is my doubt: is this normal? is there a way to show the preview with only the shown elements? Of course, when I export the file to .png, for example, I get the picture I should get (without the hidden stuff).

My 'Tool Options' Box has always been on the left of the screen - at the bottom of the 'Tool box'. I clicked on something yesterday while using the Tool Options Box and somehow moved it. There is now a message there that says 'You can drop dockable dialogs here'. I've tried various things but can't get the Tool Options box back. It's lurking underneath the main Tool Box. I can drag it out and use it, but afterwards it hides again. I know this has to be a dead simple problem but I just can't seem to correct it.

It seems that I've somehow "hidden" all of the extra options for any given tool in the Toolbox in GIMP (in 2.6, but I'm having the same issue in 2.8). I'm quite baffled as to what I did to cause this issue. URL....

Im working on a program that checks out syncronizes some data with our erp system and then checkes in the files again to vault. all works fine but in vault all links to other files are gone? when i checkin the files from inventor manuel then the links are ok in vault. therefore i wonder if it is possible to run the vault checkin dialog "hidden" and just pass in some predifined options and checkin to vault.

I was working with Illustrator - InDesign as usual. At the moment of linking my AI file into InDesign, I got this message 8 times in an A4 size frame:
"This is an Adobe® Illustrator® file that was saved without PDF content. To place or open this file in other applications, it should be re-saved from Adobe Illustrator with the "Create PDF Compatible File" options turned on. This option is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog box, which appears when saving an Adobe Illustrator file using the Save As command."
Weird... I have never seen this before. I resaved the file, and it keeps happening. I see no such option as "Create PDF Compatible File" when saving just an AI file... I am not trying to make a PDF!
I have done the same procedure linking other AI files into this ID file and it is working as usual. Is just this very one. And it doesn't seem particulary different from what I do everyday...
I finally made a PDF from the AI and placed it into InDesign. But everytime I have to update the AI..

A client has asked for an advert to be reset for magazine publication. For various reasons I am preparing it in Illustrator CC (mainly that I am more comfortable with Illustrator and it contains some reasonably complex effects and blending options). Anyway the time has come to send it to the printers and I have that heavy feeling that all is not well! The Publisher is asking for a PDF
There are two gradients within the artwork, the entire background is a photograph blending into a Black gradient (the body text sits in white over the black). To get the right effect the black gradient overlay has blending option - Multiply on it and being concerned it may not print propery or have transparency issues I chickened out and justt created one whole background image in PS (photo, gradient and all) and just imported it as a single jpeg back into Illustrator (ensuring I was working in CMYK).
But there is also an outer glow and drop shadow on some white text that sits over the Photograph. Do I need to flatten the image manually before creating the PDF? Or does the creation of the PDF do this for you? When I manually do this it displays correctly providing I tick Preserve Alpha transparency.
I work in Illustrator CC, the publisher has asked for Pass4Press Ver 9, but this preset is for Illustrator CS3. Are there no updates? and indeed does it really matter?

I am on a MAC OS X 10.8.5. I am running Illustrator CC 17.0.0 I started a new document and created my work. I could not save as or export. There are times when the SAVE button is also greyed out. (see screenshot). I was fortunate there was a script that saves the files as a PDF under SCRIPTS. It does not matter if I start a new file or open an old one. I do not have file menu choices. I checked for updates and it states I am current.

A friend just called and said that she had done something in Photoshop Elements 5.5 that turned on hidden charaters when she uses the type tool. She's seeing the Pargraph symbol etc. and wants to turn it off.
I've looked and looked for somehing that has a shorcut key or a way to turn it on and off but I can't find anything.

I still trying to get 2012 to configured like our previous version. Howcver, I noticed something odd. In several of our drawings I covered some objects with a wipeout. I then sent to the dwg to pdf driver, then printed the pdf. On screen the objects are covered, in the pdf on screen the objects are covered, but in the actual print from the pdf some of the objects are faintly visible. with the previous 2010 version of AC we used. The files are the same and the printer is the same.

I have an existing DWG and am adding FDO layers. I have styled the FDO data and given it bright colors so it is easy to see, but no styling is taking effect and the data is hidden. I can select by clicking on records in the show data table menu found by right-clicking on the FDO layers in the task pane.
If I create a new DWG I am able to see this data so the problem appears to be local to this DWG. I also tried copying this data set into a new DWG and the problem persists.
