Good idea Sergey!

I just spent half an hour troubleshooting a script before I found that the issue was this bug again. If I'm not keeping this bug in mind, it is time consuming to get to the bottom of it each time. I would love to see this fixed!

By the way, I would expect Illustrator to automatically sanitise the path items before creating the compoundPathItem, rather than learn to handle bad compoundPathItems, such as those containing groupItems.

AI version: 27.1.1
OS: MacOS 13.1Steps to reproduce:
1. New Document.
2. Make some compoundPathItems (eg. create outlines of text).
3. Group the compoundPathItems.
4. Select that group
5. Choose menu: Object > Compound Path > Make
6. Run this script:
alert('pathItems.length = ' + app.activeDocument.selection[0].pathItems.length);Result: alert says pathItems.length = 0
Expected result: should say the actual number of pathItems -

I have just tested this using AI 27.4 on MacOS 13.3.1 and this bug has been fixed.
However, I think the fix may have created [this new bug](https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/46537261-incorrect-word-count-via-script).

var dc = app.documents.addDocumentWithDialogOption(“Art & Illustration”, false);
//add some objects
dc.saveAs(File(”~/Desktop/testNoUI.ai“));
dc.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);Above script works for creating, saving and close the document without UI. The document preset is localized, if you are using locale other than english, you should pass the localized name of preset to addDocumentWithDialogOption method.

@Rama I just tested your sample script and it *does* show UI—it shows the new document as a normal document window. Therefore, this issue is not resolved.

As per the comment from the OP, the LaunchBar clipboard manager seems to not be compatible the Illustrator format. The same happens with other clipboards managers, including the default one for Windows. However, there are reports it used to work with previous versions of Illustrator. If you have more details on this, or the same problem, — please comment.

UPDATE: I can confirm in my case that the contributing factor was third party app Launchbar—specifically LaunchBar's "clipboard history" functionality. When I disable clipboard history in LaunchBar's preferences (or, even better, add Adobe Illustrator to the "Ignore apps" list) this problem goes away. Thanks Egor for asking the perfect question!

Hi Ten_A, you're right. There are lots of things that make it work. I listed more ways in my code in the forum post. Often I try to avoid app.redraw() because I don't want to spawn another Undo record.
