    im getting a huge error when i try to import that script into cs4. i have made sure that i did not save a blank recording but it still will not import. any suggestions?

  4. Rubix Says:

    When I make a fractal and choose save, nothing happens. Am I missing something? Nothing is added to my desktop.

    (I’m looking for the outputName.js doc)

    Illustrator CS4 on Mac crashes every time I try to import the script as described in your tutorial. Checked that the recording is alright and that everything was set up right, but just crashing.

    I get an “error 1302: no such element” while importing to CS4!

    Any idea?!

    Illustrator CS4 Workaround….
    Error 1239: Specified value greater than maximum allowed value
    The error is located at color.blue = lineList[i - 1][4];
    If you comment out all three color lines, you will be able to run the script and get your fractal. Unfortunately, all the lines will be black. I’ll try to find what’s wrong with it.

    This is a very good tool! Very good work.

    The solution to the “Error 1302: No such element” is simple…
    Open a blank illustrator document before importing. The script is looking for some place to draw the lines. Hope this helps. Let me know.

    Hi, great program! I’m having an issue thought. When I try to run the script in Illustrator CS4 (on Snow Leopard) it say “Internal Script execution Error”…nay idea what to do? Thanks!

  10. David Says:

    never mind! I got it, I wasn’t “Recording” the fractal. Thanks!

    I just end up, getting a huge Number-Array in Illustrator, instead of the lines it self.
    Here’s a snippet (both on cs3 and cs4 / windows):

    var doc = app.activeDocument;var color = new RGBColor();doc.layers.add();var lineList = [[-30.08, 79.5,0,0,13421568,0.29,6.01],[-20.32, 64.34,0,0,13421568,0.29,6.01],[-16.77, 70.33,0,0,13421568,0.29,6.01],[-30.35, 80.32,0,0,13421568,0.29,6.01],[-20.66, 64.87,0,0,13421568,0.29,6.01],[-16.9, …

    and so on

    hi! thanks for this application, but, when i download this file, doesn´t exist any file .exe only a document .XML

    PLEASE HELP ME!

    Hi, I’m having the same problem as Ruben, Illustrator seems to think there is something wrong with the colours (the 1239-error) because if you make your fractal in plain black and white, Illustrator will import it… Are there solutions for that yet?
    And thanks for this wonderful application!
