How can we improve Adobe Illustrator (Desktop) SDK?

access opacity of TextRange

There is no way to access the opacity of a textRange. This TextFrame has 100% opacity, but it contains two textRanges, one of which is at 50% opacity. I don't believe that there is a way to make everything 100% opaque from javascript.

    It's not just opacity, and it's not just text items; for example, you also can't access stroke or fill colour, and this also applies to group items.

    We need access to all those main variables, preferably for the entire appearance of each page item! That should also include things like arrow heads and effects (including 3D effects).

    looks like I can't attach an illustrator file for example.
