Stroked?

Muppet Mark Sep 15, 2011 4:57 AM

An easy one… In AI I can check boolean properties filled & stroked but ID appears not to have these… When I test the weight it returns the last weight applied to the page item even if its now gone, not 0 as I would have expected… So is my best/only method to test the stroke color name for 'None' feel like I missed something here?

You need to test for BOTH a stroke weight and a color.

if(pi.strokeWeight > 0 && pi.strokeColor != NOCOLOR){
//there's a visible stroke.
}

Harbs, I will check later when back at a CS5 box… as is… NOCOLOR is undefined…

Sorry for not being clearer...

You need to do something like

var NOCOLOR = doc.swatches.item(0);

I was just writing in shorthand...

Harbs, thanks I was going to look up a NOCOLOR and how to use it AI has one… So you threw me with that… I should get something workable now…
