1. Bug: Before and After Export Notifiers Do Not Fire When Export As is Used From the Menu

   The below menu command notifiers do not fire when the export option is used:

   kAIExportCommandPreNotifierStr "AI Command Notifier: Before Export"
   kAIExportCommandPostNotifierStr "AI Command Notifier: After Export"

   Other menu notifiers do fire, such as "AI Command Notifier: Before Save As" and "AI Command Notifier: After Save As"

2. Updating annotation drawings as bezier control points are dragged

   Hello,

   I'm working on an Illustrator plugin to help visualise bezier curve continuity. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/rxgqDJL.png

   I wanted to ask if there's a way to update artwork annotations as the user drags a bezier path control point? Currently my plugin only updates the annotation drawing once you let go.

   I assume this is possible because Illustrator seems to be able to do it for showing useful information such as alignment as you edit curves.

   ---

   Some extra technical details in case it helps... :)

   I started this project using the Annotator example project from the sdk as a starter.

   In my plugin I have a method to listen for events and then draw annotations using the sAIAnnotatorDrawer api:

   ASErr AnnotatorPlugin::Message(char* caller, char* selector, void* message)

   I've registered a notifier for the kAIArtSelectionChangedNotifier event:

   sAINotifier->AddNotifier(fPluginRef, "AnnotatorPlugin", kAIArtSelectionChangedNotifier, &fNotifySelectionChanged);

   So, it seems using kAIArtSelectionChangedNotifier only notifies my plugin once the control points have finished moving?

   Is it possible to be notified as the control points are still being moved i.e. as the mouse is dragged? Also, can I get the state of the in-progress curve being edited?

   Any help is appreciated, thank you! 😊

3. Unicode support for tool names & toolips

   The AIAddToolData struct is still using char* for the title & tooltip members. I know it does some kind of localization, but that's really archaic when the rest of the SDK uses ai::unicode.

4. Update Samples to not require MFC

   The Samples included with the SDK cannot currently be compiled on Windows unless MFC was installed as part of the Visual Studio installation procedure.

   Making the Samples requires two small things:

   1. Add the following include below the SDKDef.h include in VersionInfo.rc

   include "verrsrc.h"

   1. Change the "afxres.h" include in the .rc of all plugins to instead include "winuser.h"

   Doing so will make MFC optional, and not required; ultimately, including 'afxres.h' is including the two headers outlined above so it's just introducing an unnecessary middle man who can be safely bypassed.

5. accented charaters bug?

   Hi

   (Illustrator 2015-3, mac)

   I try to put this text in a frame.

   &éèçà€ù~©®πRUNNING

   Before insertAfter, the text ( as a char *) is correct

   After the insertAfter, it is also correct ( via getContents).

   But garbage is displayed as seen in the screen capture.

   Dropbox - Capture d'écran 2018-04-25 05.39.42.png

   I'm stuck.

   Thanks for any help.

   He re is some code I use.

   // get contents

   TextFrameRef textFrameRef = NULL;

   AIErr result = sAITextFrame->GetATETextFrame(bloc, &textFrameRef);

   ATE::ITextFrame textFrame(textFrameRef);

   ATE::ITextRange textRange = textFrame.GetTextRange();

   // textRange.Select();

   //debug

   int longueur = textRange.GetContents(s, 255);

   // set contents to contenu

   // Set the contents of the text range.

   TextRangeRef range = NULL;

   result = sAITextFrame->GetATETextRange(bloc, &range);

   ATE:: crange(range);

       crange.Remove();
   
    crange.InsertAfter(ai::UnicodeString(contenu).as_ASUnicode().c_str());
   
   
   
       // crange or textRange give the same result
   
   
   
   
   
       //debug text is OK in s
   
       longueur = textRange.GetContents(s, 255);
   

   Best regards

   Christian
