1. Re: creating Outline from textPath
Jump_Over Oct 24, 2012 10:42 AM (in response to Jump_Over)I have a solution:
I am not sure if ID UI do it this way but script way to reach a goal could be:
app.selection[0].contentType = ContentType.TEXT_TYPE;
app.selection[0].createOutline();
so converting a splineItem into a textFrame opens the possibility to use createOutline() method in global way for entire content.
thanks

2. Re: creating Outline from textPath
-hans- Oct 24, 2012 11:19 AM (in response to Jump_Over)Hi,
using false as option creates a duplicate with same properties as from GUI ...
var splineItem = app.selection[0];
var wholeTextOneItem = splineItem.textPaths[0].texts[0].createOutlines(false)
splineItem.remove()
