Javacript locking embeded image
In Illustrator 29.1 this script worked just fine. I place an image, move it, name it, lock it and embed it. But in 29.3 this code gives an error message: It says that it cannot operate on a locked layer, BUT it still locks the placed item. If I move the lock to after the embed, the lock does not happen. So this code no longer works in 29.3.
I think its weird in 29.1 that you were allowed to lock the placeditem before you embed it, but it doesn't work if you lock it afterwards.
We are using macos…
3 votesThe issue is reported to be fixed in the latest Pre-release build 29.4.130.
The provided script should now work without any error dialog, as before.
Please also see the recommended way to achieve locking of embedded art in modified script, in a comment within.
