Illustrator :: Set Rulers To Appear Upon Opening?
Jul 17, 2009
I use a PC and have Illustrator CS4. When I open AI, the rulers do not appear. I have saved my workspace with them showing, but when I open that workspace, they do not appear. I have to go up to View>Show Rulers (or do the shortcut). I know this is extremely minor, but my rulers appear in ID CS4, so I'm wondering why I can't set AI to do that, too. It's like having to plug in your keyboard every day...you just want it to be ready to go when you get ready to work.Â

When turning on rulers, the default for the X axis is the left.
Â
This is as should be and makes sense.
Â
But why is the default for the Y axis the bottom? Shouldn't be the top? After all, other language versions, etc., aside, we're talking lets say :
Â
Left to right, top to bottom flow of content and sight.
Â
So why on earth would the Y axis start from the bottom and go up?

I wonder if the CS5 command "Change to global rulers" is scriptable. When I try to record it as an Action script step, it is not recorded and I do not see anything in the JavaScript-ing guide on setting this programatically either.

I made something exactly 14 inches in illustrator according to the AI ruler. When I print it, it is larger than 14 inches - over 14 1/4 in. Print settings are set to do not scale.

Still really trying to get used to CS6 and how differently it works...very annoying.
Â
For instance, my display comes up with the vertical ruler starting at -300 and going across left to right to 1600. Of course, the tool bars over lap anything on the right. The horizontal goes from -50. I want it to be, like any other NORMAL screen at 0,0 in the upper left corner. How is this done? It's VERY annoying!

We have Photoshops CS. Whenever we re-sized a photo with the rulers in view, the actual "inches" would be fairly big, ie the photo would be quite big on screen. Something has changed and I must have inadvertently done something and now when the rulers are in view, the actual "inches" size of the image is very small so the photo is small on the screen. How can I get it back to how it was before?

I'm running CS2, and when i open a document of any type the size of the image isn't accurate. For example: when i open an image of 800x600 pixels and set the magnification to 100%, i should easily be able to see the whole image on my screen, however i can only see a small section of it. To view the whole picture i have to reduce the magnification to 25%.
When i look at the rulers at 100% magnification an inch for example displays as more like 2 inches.
I'm using a 20" monitor with a resolution of 1680x1050 so there shouldn't be a problem viewing these images at 100%

If you zoom the image using shortcuts (ctrl/cmd+ and ctrl/cmd-, the rulers resize with the image. But if you use scrubby zooming they stay with the window and it's only by hitting ctrl/cmd-R twice that they reset correctly.

I have tried several times to show rulers and PSCS4 crashes every time. I get a glimpse of the upper left corner of the rulers then it crashes.

The scale of the horizontal ruler is slightly larger than the vertical ruler. If I zoom so that the distance between 0 and 1" is 100mm on the horizontal scale, it is 94mm between 0 and 1" on the vertical scale (sorry for the mixed standards). This makes images look compressed vertically on my screen. Portraits make people look more "chunky" than they are. Is this adjustable? I am using a Lacie electron19blueIV CRT with resolution at 1280x1024.

I have PS CS5 and adobe says that in order to reset Rulers you need to 'To reset a ruler’s origin to its default value, double-click the upper-left corner of the ruler.'
But when I try that nothing happens. I have tried resetting my workspace as well but still not working.

I just noticed a serious UI issue. Say I'm zoomed in and am creating acomplex freehand selection. I'm now selecting stuff at the very top ofthe canvas, and I happen to miss a bit and touch the 'ruler'. Suddenly,GIMP switches to the move tool and I've lost the whole selection! Does this behaviour can be turned off?
(I know I can turn off the rulers, but it's annoying having to turn themoff and on all the time since they are sometimes useful.)

Is there a way to make rulers be off by default when I start Gimp? Iknow it's just a matter of clicking ctrl+shift+r, but that's easy to saywhen you've just lost a huge, painstakingly made selection …

I'm not that fluent in Photoshop. I have a PSD, see here: [URL] . I want to open this in Illustrator so I can print it on my vinyl printer. I need to be able to have this as a vector.
Â
When I open it from a .eps, .pdf, whatever, I get some of the text as vectors, but everything else is some sort of image on 1 layer.
Â
See this screenshot:What I did in the screen shot is take the layer that has most of the items, all together, not vectored and dragged it to the left for you to see.

Even though they are saved as AI. On other computers it opens properly. The few files I can open, I can't select using the selection tool because of a clipping mask I cannot get rid of.

I just started using the CC version of the design products this weekend, and yesterday I spent all day working on a design in Illustrator. Today if I try to open it, Illlustrator just hangs - and eventually I have to force quit. I get no error messages at all.
Â
I can open the file in my old version, CS5.1. And really, I shoudl be able to open it where I created it.
Â
This is not a particularly large or complicated file.

I am trying to open a PSD file in Illustrator CS, and I get the following error: "The embedded color profile in this document will be discarded, because your Color Settings are configured for Adobe Illustrator 6.0 Compatible color management"?
I am losing color on the final product and this is going to be made into a poster.

I've been using Illustrator for a few year now, but I've never had this problem before. Recently, I went to open up some files I had been working on. The problem was, when they opened, the files were blank. There was nothing on them.
Â
When I open pdf and eps files, they're fine, it's just ai files that open up blank.
Â
I ran a quick test where I created a new file and saved both as an ai and eps file. I closed it and quit Illustrator. I then re strated the program and opened the test file, and lo and behold, the ai file opened up blank, but the eps file was fine.

When I open Illustrator CS6 I can see the programs "behind" it. I see Illustrator's menu bar, the tools and panels around the edges, but there is a large space that is still showing whatever program was last used (mail, Firefox etc.) that fills the middle of my screen. By contrast, when I open Photoshop CS6, the screen is filled with a solid gray fill (as well as the menu bar, tools, panels) so other programs aren't visible. I'm running a 27" iMac and OSX Lion, so there's a lot of screen that's filled with stuff that has nothing to do with Illustrator. Is there some way to set preferences or whatever so that the other programs aren't visible when I'm opening Illustrator?
Â
Also, I miss the welcome splash screen on opening AI CS5. At least the option is there when the program launched.

I'm a cartoonist, and I do rather complex vector drawings. It's no unusual for my work to have hundreds of layers, and those layers have dozens of sub-layers. When I opens said files, several layers expand to reveal all the sublayers. I then have to colapse them, one at a time. Is there a quick way to close all sub layers at once?
