Hi
Never used Illustrator scripting bebore.
Could soeone please write me a script that takes as arguments.
text : a text element on the artwork (not sure if this is possible)
inX, incY : Incremental y co ordinate (x less impotant)
numOfSteps : Number of duplcates made
This script should then make duplicats of the text element and increment the number
So if I have a text box with the text '01'
And I enter <numOfSteps> 4, <inX> 0, <incY> 30. I would like 4 duplicates to be made spaced 30 pixels apart.
For example,
01 }
} 30 pixels
02
03
04
05
It is imprtant the numbers are written in 2 digits 01 instead of just 1
An additional startNum variable would be very useful to state the number inside the first text field which the steps will be started from.
Hope this is even possible would save me a lot of time.
I'm good at actionscript so if it's written in that I could edit it, not that important though.
Thanks in advance,
Simon
