Illustrator :: Never Use Any Widget Other Than HSV
Jul 22, 2008
Some way to get Illustrator to never use any Widget other than HSV? Everytime I pick something it either goes to RGB or the Black to White slider when I'm creating a gradient. I then have to choose the 2 pixel wide triangle and navigate to HSV. This drives me insane. Who uses RGB other than to enter a color someone else gave you as an RGB value to type in manually (because you can't use the color picker because you've got 8 different color management problems that shift color around everytime you copy and paste)?

I often need to create icons at small sizes 6-12 (pts) so that it's easy to copy and paste into InDesign. On small corner areas, the widget disappears. When I scale the vector drawing up, they appear. I can work on them larger and just scale them back down in but was wondering if there was a setting or something to get them to show at the smaller sizes.

For simple files, the 3d widget appears when I convert an object to a Postcard and responds to my use of it. For some of my complex multi-layer files, the widget shows up but does not respond to my mouse clicks. I can manipulate the object using the 3d navigation tools, but the widget is useless.I'm having problems with a 170 MB file with no other apps running other than Photoshop.
I'm on a Mac 2.66 GHz PowerBook with 8GB of RAM running OSX 10.8.5.

I am running Photoshop CS6. There is a "widget" that follows my cursor around when using certain tools . This was not present when I was using CS5. It's a little black box with coordinates inside of it that follows my cursor around.

Today, I've been mostly trying to get the Cloud Gallery 2 widget to work as advertised. According to the instructions, once the photos I want to use are in place I can -
'Set text shown when mousing over the image using the caption field on the image tab of the Utilities > Web Properties dialog. Do this for all images.'
I've done this, but all I can get to appear is the main title of the widget itself. At no point can I get individual captions to appear describing the graphic.

My 3D axis widget was showing fine( solid, clear, and visible in front of the mesh I was working on), but now It has started to switch between normal and Blurry/Fuzzy( as if it is sitting behind the mesh and the whole scene). It is very difficult to see sometimes and even more s to access it.Sys info:
Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0.1 (13.0.1 20120808.r.519 2012/08/08:21:00:00) x64

For some reason I am not able to link my accordion widget to other pages within my web site. The pre-existing link to xara.com works fine. When I remove it and put in my own link (and follow protocols within the linking function in the web properties box) it simple won't work.

Currently using Throttlestop to overclock i7-2600 to its turbo state and setting the priority of Illustrator to realtime and the affinity to the first 4 cores. Also, the system has 16gb of RAM installed and is set up as Raid 0 on 2 250gb 7200 rpm hdd's. Even during the most stressful tasks the cpu usage never goes past 13-14%, which is half of one core. The system is completely idle except for 1% in use by various system tasks. Is there a reason as to why Illustrator is throttling itself?

I currently need to convert some of my tshirt designs to ai or esp format so they can be printed. I have discovered the trace tool as to fix the problem you get with the lines when you import a psd file to illustrator. What I am still struggling with is keeping transparency of the background.
I did manage to create a ai file from png with a transparent background, but now I cannot seem to replicate it. Also I find it difficult to see IF the BG is transparent since its always white (instead of the grey blocks). atm I check by adding a layer in illustrator and paint something to look if it shows under the original layer.. seems a bit silly.
I've read that importing the png files should solve the problem, but I can only manage to keep transparency when saving as a png, which is not what I need. btw (may be the reason of my failure) I import the psd file and select flatten, since the psd files often contain many layers and I couldnt get the trace tool to work.
So I have a few questions which you might be able to answer; I sort of know the difference between ai and eps, but I dont see any reason to save as eps, is this correct thinking (taking into account I can deliver them in both formats)?What would be the easiest way to convert psd or png files all with transparent BGs to ai? Is using the trace tool efficient and a good choice to fix the problems with the picture caused by importing psd to ai? should I 'always' use the "place" function to import?
What is meant with "text to curves" and "line thickness to paths"?

I have an unopened, sealed CS2 but the box says that it runs on OSX 10.2-10.4. I don't want to open it if it won't run on my OSX 10.8.2. Is there an upgrade that will permit me to use the application?

Does anyone have Adobe Illustrator? If yes, what do you think about it... I am thinking of getting it to play around with the graphics etc.
if I bought the download of Photoshop Elements CS2 from the adobe online store, I suppose I still have to buy a full version of Illustrator right, and not just the upgrade since they are different programs?

Using the Roland GX-24 plotter to cut vinyl and the Illustrator print to plotter plug-in, the program refused to cut rectangles. (with the exception of lower case i's) This includes Capital I's, lower case l's, hyphens and rectangles using the rectangle tool.
All other letters have no issue cutting. So long as they're not a single rectangle. This anomaly was experienced using several files, tested on old and new. So its not an issue with the file.

I'm designing a user interface for iPad (Resolution: 1024x768, DPI:132). Setting the resolution is a piece of cake but when I change the ruler unit to Centimeters, it shows the screen about 36x27cm which is not right (iPad screen is 24.3x19cm).
Illustrator calculates these lengths based on the DPI. But when creating a new document the only available DPI's are: 72, 150, 300 (File > New > Raster Effect). I know that Illustrator is a vector design program but there must be a way to set the DPI to an arbitrary value.
How can I have a 1024x768px artboard in Illustrator that is 24.3x19cm? (DPI=132)

I recently designed a logo for a client that included both a gradient and transparency. I flattened the transparency, expanded the strokes and embedded the text before saving a copy of it in .eps and another in .pdf (PDF/x-1a:2003)
When I opened both files in Preview, I found these two problems:
I didn't have this problem when I saved the file in other formats (.jpg, .png) Also, while I'm here, is PDF/x-1a:2003 preset optimized specifically for printing?

[URL] and I don't know how to get the stroke around the blue circle, to be on the outside rather than in the middle? It should say "Stroke---(square with blue)---7 pt---Outside" in Apperance, but mine doesn't say Outside.

I want to make a graphic to be placed on a web page that can be automatically styled in different ways using CSS. The problem is that when I export an SVG from illustrator, the SVG code is stripped of IDs/classes and so the CSS script won't function.
Some background: I work in a group of artists who make graphics in adobe illustrator and we need the ability to take these graphics and restyle them for different contexts. The restyling needs to be done fast.
So far I have tried naming elements on each layer, and I am choosing the Style elements selection in the CSS properties drop down menu
There is a lot if support for using the new versions of illustrator to provide the CSS code to copy and paste into a CSS document but I have not had luck finding support for getting a CSS-ready file out of illustrator
Is there a workaround or plugin that will allow illustrator to export a 'semantic' SVG graphic that can be styled using CSS?

I create a file in .ai (small logo for document headers, mostly text), save type to outlines, save an .eps version and import into MS Office Word, save as a PDF and the image comes out with jagged edges. PNG comes out blurry and faded in PDF (it's fine in Word). So I need to make my image available for a Word header for a document that will be saved as a PDF.

How can I run Illustrator without Java? Is there a Java-dependent plugin I can turn off, a resource I can delete, or some way to coax it into performing the function I bought it to perform?
(I will not be installing Java on my machines. I wish Adobe had told me that the software I bought was reliant on obsolete middleware.)
