Hi,
I'm pulling my hair out a little trying to get the AIExport Class to output any text at all?
Does anyone have a simple working example?
This, is what i'm doing wrong somehow:
___________________________________________
AIExport ai;
BFont metaBold;
void setup(){
size( 500, 500 );
ai = new AIExport( this, 5 );
metaBold = loadFont("Meta-Bold.vlw.gz");
};
void loop(){
ai.run();
colorMode( RGB, 255 );
background( 128 );
ai.setLayer( 1 );
ai.setLineWeight( 1 );
ai.ai_textFont( metaBold, 48 );
ai.ai_textSize( 20 );
ai.ai_textMode(ALIGN_RIGHT);
ai.ai_text( "hello", 50, 50 );
};
void keyPressed(){
if( key=='e' ) ai.exportOneFrame();
};
___________________________________________
Which gives me ( When I hit 'e' to export ):
AIExport: Starting default export. Exporting the next frame.
Error while running applet.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot format given Object as a Number
at java.text.NumberFormat.format(NumberFormat.java:219)

at BApplet.nextFrame(BApplet.java:434)
at BApplet.run(BApplet.java:369)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:536)
If anyone could shed any light on this I'd be most grateful, cheers!

edit. just tidied the error message to take less space

I have the same problem with ai_bezier();
if I try to call exportOneFrame(); on a few beziers, I get this error:
Error while running applet.

the strange thing is: if I replace the ai_bezier() with a ai_line command, it works just fine.

I already fixed the problem with the ai_bezier() myself. In the AIExport.java file it sais on line 716-717:
addLine(nf.format(bApplet.screenX(ax1, ay1, 0)) + " "+ nf.format(reflectedScreenY(ax1, ay1, 0) + " m"));
while it should be:
addLine(nf.format(bApplet.screenX(ax1, ay1, 0)) + " "+ nf.format(reflectedScreenY(ax1, ay1, 0)) + " m");
I think it's the same problem with your error,mrrudge.
you should change line 533:
+ nf.format(reflectedScreenY(x, y, 0) + " L"));
to:
+ nf.format(reflectedScreenY(x, y, 0)) + " L");
cheers,
tim.

Re: Adobe Illustrator Export Class, ai_rect

I am having trouble with the ai_rect function...
The rectangles render to the Processing output window, but not to the exported ai file. As a debugging strategy, I replaced ai_rect with the ai_ellipse function, and it rendered the ellipses perfectly.
I don't seem to be making a syntax error as the the render to the Processing window is just as expected. Is there a problem with the exporter for the ai_rect function?
One of the example programs I have tried is an adaptation of awmartin's example, as follows (everything renders but the rectangles). Any advice much appreciated....Thanks!
The code I tested:
AIExport ai;
void setup(){
size( 500, 500 );
ai = new AIExport( this, 5 );
ai.setContinuousRecordingFrameRate( 2 );
ai.ai_rectMode(CORNER);
}
void loop(){
ai.run();
colorMode( RGB, 255 );
background( 255 );
ai.setLayer( 1 );
ai.setLineWeight( 0.25 );
ai.ai_stroke(255, 102, 0);
ai.ai_line(85, 20, 10, 10);
ai.ai_line(90, 90, mouseX, mouseY);
ai.ai_rect(100,100,200,200);
ai.setLayer( 2 );
ai.setLineWeight( 1 );
ai.ai_stroke(0, 0, 0);
ai.ai_bezier(85, 20, 10, 10, 90, 90, mouseX, mouseY);
ai.ai_rect(100,100,200,200);
ai.ai_noStroke();
colorMode(HSB, 100);
for(int i=0; i<100; i+=10) {
for(int j=0; j<100; j+=10) {
ai.ai_stroke(i, j, 100);
ai.ai_point(i, j);
ai.ai_ellipse(i,j,5,5);
ai.ai_rect(i+1,j+1,7,7);
}
}
}
void keyPressed(){
if( key=='e' ) ai.exportOneFrame();
if( key=='s' ) ai.takeSnapShot();
if( key=='d' ) ai.dumpSnapShots();
if( key=='r' ) ai.toggleContinuousRecording();
}
