system is a mac. mouse: standard logitech with mousewheel
before today's update scrooling was normal. each "step" i made with the mousewheel i zoomed in or out. this is broken since the update. i have to do a lot of mousewheel "movement" to start zooming. it therefore feels very inaccurate and random.
I have a problem in Illustrator when navigating around the artboard.
By default, if I want to use zoom function I press Alt key and zoom in or out using the mousewheel. When I am satified with the zoom level I release the Alt button and top navigation is activated. See what I mean in the picture below:
Let's say I have the Type Tool activated and I want to access the Selection Tool by using shortcut the V key. Instead of Selection Tool I get the View drop down menu from the top navigation expanded. Then I have to click away or choose the Selection Tool with the mouse.
This has been bugging me for a while now as it slows the work. Also, I have checked the Preferences trying to change the keyboard and mousewheel combination, but I haven't found it.
I started getting a fatal error just on opening Map3D today. I googled the error message (FATAL ERROR: Unhandled e0434f4dh Exception at 7c812afbh) and a couple things came up about windows updates.
I did get a windows update this morning, so I don't know if it's related to that or not. Anyway, I can't open map now, I just get a fatal error after it loads up. Im using Map3d 2010 on win xp.
the map module is broken after a recent adobe flash update on OSX 10.8.2. It's just a grey screen now when I go to it.

View 9 Replies View RelatedSince upgrading to Illustrator CC, my actions haven't been working right. All the details from certain steps are completely gone. For example, if a step involved rotating the selection by 90°, the "Rotate" step will still be there, but there is no longer a disclosure arrow next to it with the value of 90°. Also, the Fkey that was previously bound to the action has been removed.
I have another action that selects all shapes with a similar fill and stroke, and the "Select Similar" step is still there, but again, the disclosure arrow is gone that included the information of "Fill & Stroke". Also, the Fkey associated with that action is gone as well.
When I restore my actions from a saved copy, they are retained from file to file, but once I quit Illustrator and reopen it, the actions break again.
I've installed Illustrator CS6 recently and found the behavior of panning with the scroll wheel annoying. When I have low zoom values (e.g. 75%) the scroll wheel lets me pan U-D, L-R at normal speed, but if I zoom in (200% and up), the panning slows to a point where it is unusable at 600% and up. I use [Shift] to speed it up but at high zoom levels it's not enough. This wasn't the case for Illustrator CS5 or 5.5 where panning with the scroll wheel worked at the same speed at any zoom level.

View 1 Replies View Relatedon my windows 7 machine my freehand import of Illustrator CS5 and CS4 is broken after installing cs6 creative cloud.
I can still select a freehand file to open and the dialog box appears, but after choosing OK nothing happens. No file opens and no error appears. It doesn´t depend on the freehand file because my other machine with CS3 can still open these files.
What can i do to repair illustrator? - it´s part of a master collection install.
I have a series of folders and I have linked art and the files they are linked to all mixed up in these folders. My file structure is as such;
myFilesHH01000-01999HH01000-HH01099HH001001.PDF
and now I need to change the file structure to this;
myFilesHHHH01000-01999HH01000-HH01099HH001001.PDF
adding the folder HH breaks the links.
What is the best way to identify the broken link and change its path with JSX?
resizing objects by changing the width and height values in the Transform window, while keeping the proportions of the object? When I try this in CS6, the proportions of the object gets totally botched.
This is what I do:
1. Draw a straight line that is rotated some 30-40°.
2. Select the line and click in the W: or H: fields in the Transform window.
3. Make sure that the "Constrain Width and Height Proportions" button is selected.
4. Press and hold the up arrow key on the keyboard.
5. Watch how the line is rotated as it is scaled.
I notice that while I'm pressing the up or down keys, the number in the selected width or height field is incremented nicely (21 mm, 22 mm, 23 mm, 24 mm, etc.), but when I release the key, it is adjusted to a seemingly random number (for example 24 mm -> 24.168 mm). If I switch between pressing up and down for some time, the adjustment can be even more random (24 mm -> 58,944 mm).
I recently upgraded from CS3 where this type of scaling worked flawlessly. I'm using a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.7.5.
I have an action set up from CS6 that simply selects all unused swatches and deletes them. Useful to keep production files clean. However in CC it doesn't work. I have tried re-recording the action, simple enough, but when I run it I get a message telling me, "The object "Swatches" is not currently available." Why is this not working in CC.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to get the "file.displayName" property of a RasterItem from a file where links are broken.the script :
myItem = app.activeDocument.selection[0];
myItem.file.displayName;
works fine if the RasterItem source file is where the link points at.In my case, the link points to the local drive of another computer, so the "file" property of the RasterItem doesn't exists !!!I don't understand why, because all the informations are in the Links pannel of illustrator.
How do I do this? Or its at an automatic update

The tutorial shows you how to accurately line up guidelines by using the Info panel. However for me the info panel "locks" as soon as I select a guideline from the ruler and drag it onto the artboard. It only starts updating when I move my mouse off the guideline - which makes it useless.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug introduced since Adobe CS6 was first released? (I noticed there was an update this morning - 15th May 2012 - which I've applied)
When I drop a swatch color on a gradient, it doesn't link to the swatch color like in a solid fill.Nevermind the UI inconsistency with this behavior, since Adobe probably doesn't care, but how do I get around this?
Creating a Swatch from the gradient is not a solution for me, as I use the same base color in different gradients.
