Adding 3D objects to your 2D image just got a whole lot easier. You can use pathfinder to create shapes from existing ones (circle, rectangle) or ones you draw yourself with the pen tool. You might also want to take a look at the new Adobe Dimension app. Then, use your mouse to click on all of the shapes you would like to combine (either by highlighting over all of them or using shift+click to select multiple at once) and click the Add to Shape Area button (the first one) in pathfinder.

It’s only taken me a few days of using the new Illustrator to get used to using the Properties Panel vs. Select multiple shapes and you’ll get the Pathfinder features.

Var myApplicationEventListener = ("afterOpen",myfunc) My ideal solution would be to avoid the warning by using more appropriate code (that's what I'm hoping you can help me with), but I'd also be willing to have someone show me how to add code to simply suppress the warning.

I figure with an eventListener named "afterOpen", the script wouldn't be triggered until after the file is opened, in which case I figure I shouldn't be getting the warning. Do you want to disable this event handler?" "An attached script generated the following error: No documents are open. If the string is found in the filePath, I simply want to show a message to the user.Īfter choosing the file to open, I get a warning before the file is loaded. I'm using InDesign CC 2017 with Mac OS X El Capitan, and want to use a script in my Startup Scripts folder to always perform a check each time I open a file for a certain string in the filePath of that file.
