The returned values of 'PathItem.length' property and the function in this script are slightly different especially in complex paths. You can force calculate the length by 'use_native_property' setting set to false. This script uses JavaScript's 'length' property of PathItem. Then write out them on the artboard as text object. (See above) Path LengthДЇinds out length of the each selected path, and total length of the selected paths. if it occurs, it may help to solve it to use my another script 'Merge Overlapped Anchors.js'. So have fun with other shapes.Д¬ombining the shapes using Pathfinder may results several overlapping anchor points on the path. It doesn't check in the script whether each path is really a circle.

When a prompt appears, type in an optional value for the the connecting curves, then click OK.

Draw some circles and select them, then run this script.

To use, simply select the path(es) and run this script. It also reports how many anchor points had been reduced. Joins the open paths in the selection together with reasonable order Merge Overlapped Anchors Dup At Selected AnchorsДuplicates the foreground object in the selection at the locations of the rest of each selected anchor points.Д®xtends all handles of selected anchor points with specified rate. The length of each segment is equally distributed. Divide LengthДivides each selected segment into specified number based on the length. So please remember to adjust the setting of Scale Tool for scaling strokes. The dancers are made with various width of lines. DanceДЄdds a new layer and draws dancing people on it Common TangentsДraws common tangents to the selected curved lines, if they are detected.Д¬uts selected paths at each selected anchor. The rightmost one in the figure above is a case of failure. define longer one as the radius of the circumcircle to draw.

find out the length of the line connecting the center and 1st anchor, then do the same for the center and 2nd anchor.

for the center of the circumcircle to draw

find out intersection point of 1 and 2.

do the same for 1st and 3rd anchor (if the path is a triangle, 2nd and 3rd anchor).

find out a perpendicular bisector for the line connecting 1st and 2nd anchor.

So the method to find the center and the radius for the circumcircle is rather incertitude. The major reason why I wrote this script is to draw a 'circumcircle' for a star. CircleДraws a circle with specified number of anchor points.Дraws circumcircles for each selcted path The path with projection end cap is modified to but end cap. The end of paths are trimmed in order to avoid sticking out from the head of the arrow.

The visible peaks of arrows exactly locate at each visible end of the selected paths. 'A' and 'V' mean the shape of the head of the arrow. Archimedean SpiralДraws an (approximated) Archimedean spiral.Дraws an arrow for each selected end (anchor) of the selected paths.

To use, just select the paths and run this script.ДЇor the (not need-to-know) detail of the method, please read the comments inside of the script with above figure. Adjust DashesДЄdjusts the lengths of dashes and gaps of dashed lines in order to the length of the path is divisible by total length of dashes and gaps.Д¬orrects free-hand drawn arc-like paths in the selection. This process also CLEARS FILL COLORS, if it needs, and if the pash has BUTT end cap, change it to PROJECTION end cap.ДЇig.2 : The left figure is splitted with pathfinder ( outline ), in order to make anchors at all intersection points. This is a lockstep trick caused by an Illustrator path can have only one simple rule for dashes and gaps. Adjust Dashes-offsetДЇig.1 : This script adjusts dashed lines in the selection in order to the center of the first dash comes at each anchor points.ДЇor its purpose, when adjacent segments of an anchor of the target path have a difference in length, a rectangle like above, for example, this script splits the path at this anchor, applies a suitable dash setting for each splitted path, then put them into a group.
