Scriptographer.org - Scriptographer/Illustrator (k...

I recently did a fresh re-install on my mac, and Illustrator (CS3, 13.0.2) was working just fine. After I installed Scriptographer, I noticed that when ever I save a file that has a large linked photo in the document, Illustrator does this strange freeze, where I can still select tools from the tool bars and menu items, but cannot select anything in the layers palette or in the document itself.

I've also noticed that when I CMD+Tab out of Illustrator, and then back into Illustrator, the Scriptographer console will appear with random script errors (no documentation on what shows up at the moment; will post with results when they appear).

Don't know if the two are related or not, but thought I'd throw it out...

Thanks for any thoughts!

I get something like this too! Except its whenever i save a file then pretty much everything becomes unavailable to select and i get one of those not happy squelchy noises. I thought this might be something to do with the fact my Illustrator is a cracked copy, but i reckon it will be scriptographer thing as ive had this problem on my pc with a legit illustrator

This is a Java issue on OSX 10.5 (Leopard), when running Java in headless mode. The error comes from somewhere deep down Apple's Java code. I am currently working on a fix for this.

It seems that both Google's GWT and Adobe's Air are suffering from the same issue:

I figured the problem was a result of upgrading to 10.5.
Thanks for looking into this.

hi Jürg,
i'm having unfortunately the same issue here on leopard. i was on pc before without any problems.
it would be awesome if there would be a fix, because i think that scriptographer is the cooles plugin around for illustrator. keep up the good work.
cheers
