   When you close the file in the script
   After that, an error (1346458189 ('PARM')) occurs with high probability.
   Closed processing is closed up to what is not closed or can not be closed
   It looks like a bug.

2. Failure to create artboards when reading file with SDK in CC 2018

   Issue occurs in CC 2018 when creating artboards during the GoFileFormat message handler in a plugin that registers its own file format.

   In previous versions you could create artboards up to the size of the canvas using AIArtboard::SetPosition without any errors. In CC 2018 when you call AIArtboard::SetPosition it seems to compare the position to the result of AIDocument::GetDocumentMaxArtboardBounds and if it is outside of the maximum bounds it returns an error code. In CC 2018, the maximum art boards for a new document seem to be based on the /artboard setting in the preferences file, which in turn seems to be based on the documents the user has been working with.

   This means that if you have two users, one who uses small documents and one who uses large documents and they both open the same medium size file using your plugin, it works for the user who has been using large documents but not for the user who has been using small documents. As there is no AIDocument::SetDocumentMaxArtboardBounds function, there seems to be no way the plugin can overcome this issue.

3. GetPresetSettings function doesn't work correctly in CC 2017 and later

   In Illustrator CC 2017 (22.x) and CC 2018 (23.x) the AIDocumentList::GetPresetSettings function is broken. It still returns an error if the preset doesn't exist, but if the preset does exist, it returns 0, but doesn't fill in the AINewDocumentPreset structure.

4. Properties of Placed Illustrator file

   I have a illustrator design file, I could able to place the file in another Illustrator design document, but when I read the properties of the placed object the "name" value shows empty.

5. kAIXMLNameChangedNotifier behaviour change

   The following code worked perfectly in 2015, 2015.1, 2017 but in 2018 it broke.

   My notifier is created like so :
   error = sAINotifier->AddNotifier(fPluginRef, kCinewarePluginName, kAIXMLNameChangedNotifier, &fUIDChangeNotifier);

   It is correctly triggered on the renaming of an art element. This then calls the following code :

   ASErr ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier(AINotifierMessage message)
   {
   ASErr error = kNoErr;
   fprintf(stderr,"ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier\n");
   //First get the AiArtHandle
   AIPluginGroupMessage myMessage = (AIPluginGroupMessage*)message;
   fprintf(stderr,"ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier msg type[%s]\n",message->type);
   //The relabelled art
   AIArtHandle relabelledArt = myMessage->preEditArt;
   fprintf(stderr,"ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier msg preEditArt[%p] is valid Art?[%s]\n",relabelledArt,sAIArt->ValidArt(relabelledArt, true)?"YES":"NO");
   //Verify it has a UID
   ai::UnicodeString relabelledArtUUID;
   //The artUIDName will be empty if not yet made
   if (relabelledArt)
   {
   error = sAIUIDUtils->GetArtUIDName(relabelledArt, relabelledArtUUID);
   }
   fprintf(stderr,"ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier msg preEditArt[%p] UUID[%s]\n",relabelledArt,relabelledArtUUID.asUTF8().cstr());

   The above code works perfectly in 2017, 2015 and 2015.3 :
   ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier
   ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier msg type[AI XML Name Changed Notifier]
   ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier msg preEditArt[0x157287b80] is valid Art?[YES]
   ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier msg preEditArt[0x157287b80] UUID[Green]

   Then in 2018 and (22.0 and 22.1) :
   ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier
   ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier msg type[AI XML Name Changed Notifier]
   ArtSelectionRenamedNotifier msg preEditArt[0x10003e501] is valid Art?[NO]
   Segmentation fault

   The seg fault occurs inside the GetArtUIDName, no doubt as the art in invalid.

   If this is intentional behaviour, can it be detailed how to get the arthandle that has changed?

   R

6. Possible bug: Crash after script runs... runs OK in ESTK.

   I believe this might be a bug since it crashed Illustrator rather than the script crashing gracefuly.

   I have a script which, when completed, crashes Illustrator. The script runs fine when ran from within the ESTK but crashes when ran from the AI File->Scripts menu. Attached is the crash log. I cannot post the script itself here but am willing to send it to an Adobe employee privately if needed.

7. update link to illustrator 2017 sdk on https://www.adobe.com/devnet/illustrator/sdk.html

   The move from https://www.adobe.com/devnet/illustrator/sdk.html
   to https://console.adobe.io/downloads/ai left behind a broken link to the 2017 sdk.
   Easiest thing to do would be to update the 2017 sdk link on the old devnet page.

   We are moving away from devnet to the Adobe io site. Moving forward that will the place to get all of Adobe SDK.
   We also have an early access program for our plugin partners. You may join our prerelease site you will get SDK builds way before we release it on public facing pages.

8. Applescript convert to paths deletes image used as transparency mask

   Since Illustrator 21.1.0 (okay before) there is an problem with Applescript command "convert to paths (every text frame of current document)"

   If the text has an image as a transparency mask the script will delete the image. This does not happen if I do this manually within Illustrator. The problem still exists with the latest version of Illustrator.
