Illustrator :: Disable X And Y Coordinates Box In CS6?

Up 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.
It seems there is no way to stop illustrator (CS5) from snapping to the edge of the artboard. Even if you hide the artboard, it still snaps to the invisible artboard.
is it possible that the brilliant folks at adobe missed this one and there is no way to disable this snapping to the artboard?
I am using export action to generate artboard images in JPEG from my plug-in. The "Exporting Artwork..." progress bar is shown when the images are generated. I want to disable this progress bar. I've tried using AIAppContextSuite::AllowProgress (error = sAIAppContext->AllowProgress(false);) but this doesnot disable the progress bar. I'm I using this correclty? Is there any other way to disable progress bar?

After reading several forum threads I don't think CAD allows me to change the coordinate system of model space from map coords to northing easting coords, as we can in GIS.
View 5 Replies View RelatedSometimes I can manually set the x & y coordinates, and sometimes I can't: I change the number from say 54.0001 to 54, and Illustrator changes it back to 54.0001. Or, more commonly, it will not allow me to specify a float when the coordinate is an integer ( 54 -> 54.1 ).
The layours/shapes are not locked and I disabled all snapping options (snap to grid, snap to point, snap to guide).Why does it decide to work sometimes and not others?
Also, why, even when I have all the snaps enabled, does Illustrator insist on setting coordinates to a float that is JUST off of what it should snap to? Say I have a Guide and the left side of Shape A at x-coord 60; Illustrator absolutely refuses to align the right side of Shape B to x-coord 60 when dragging. Instead it decides 59.9897 is better. Both shapes are simple, are solid/filled, and have no stroke or effect/filter.
Even if I select Shape A and Shape B (Shape B is a copy of Shape A) and use the align palette (specifying Shape A is the key object), it will still set the x-coord of Shape B to 59.9897 instead of 60. WHY?
I noticed Illustrator setting erroneous/illogical xy coords since CS3 (it might have existed earlier), but I've always been able to force the x-coord manually to be the position I want; until now.
Whenever I make a stroke with my brush tool, it smooths out. I have checked everywhere to try and find a place where you can "disable" the autosmooth on your brushes, and have found nothing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'd like to use the "Jump into Group" feature, but I don't want the background artwork to be grayed, or washed out. Is there any way to disable the default action by AICS 5?
I understand the reasoning, but when working with elements that interact with elements outside the group, the effect is not useful.
I should use the right term… I talking about "Isolation Mode".
The coordinates that we can apply in Revit (project/shared) aren't exactly the same to have real world projection coordinates (WGS84)??
If not how can we convert the revit shared coordinates to real world projection coordinates?
Random objects on my artboard tend to change dimensions and/or coordinates on its own. The difference is by a few thousandth of a decimal. I'm not sure when this happens but it's usually happening to objects I'm not working on in the moment. And once and a while an object would refuse to comply when I try to readjust the dimension or coordinates.
Why this keeps happening and what I can do to stop it?
FYI: I am using CS5 on a Macbook Pro.

Trial of new IllustratorCC reshapes my paths instead of just selecting it!
I haven't found any preferences to disable it (and I don't want to, because I have VectorScribe installed).
Groups are an excellent way to design encapsulated objects, but when editing color in Isolation Mode all other groups/layers are desaturated which makes it impossible to edit color in respect to the entire illustration.
I'd expect a way to disable the dimming effect somewhere in a menu option or preference setting.
Is it possible to disable screen updating in illustrator whilst running a script and if so how?
I have developed some scripts to create artwork in Illustrator but I would like to speed them up and presumably avoiding having to watch it happen on the screen would work with this.
I'm creating SVG icons, and due to the removal of SVG as an output format for Save for Web, I've switched to having a series of 16x16 artboards for my icons. Problem is, no matter what snapping features I disable, my artwork still snaps to the artboard edges when I move it around (regardless if I use the mouse or the arrow keys). This makes it impossible to align artwork to such a small artboard, and it also seems like pixel snapping shuts off, causing mis-aligned artwork.
Failed solution:
View menu >> Snap to Pixel disabledView menu >> Snap to Point disabledView menu >> Smart guide disabled Transform palette >> Align to Pixel Grid disabled
Workarounds:
Set Keyboard increment to 0.5px, which will round up to 1px in Pixel Mode. Keyboard nudging now behaves as expected, but mouse behavior is still erratic.Use the Free Transform tool. It behaves slighly less erratically than the Selection and Direct Selection tool.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a new document, 16x16 pxVerify that you're in pixel modeCreate a 14x14 px squareTry and position it in the center of the artboard using the mouse or keyboard incrementsObserve the artwork snapping to the edges of the documents, or bypassing snapping altogether.

is there a way to make CS6 only select an object if I click on the original vectors?
