Applescript to round off the shade % of graphic in Illustrator.

[starjohn]

Hi Guys,

I am using MacIntosh X, Adobe Illustrator CS6 (version 16) and Applescript Editor (version 2.5).

I have more than 200 files with Bar charts and Pie charts. Every Time I have to convert the color mode to GrayScale through Menu Bar. (Edit > Edit colors > Convert to GrayScale). After doing that I have to select each and every bar of the chart with Direct selection tool and to round of the Shade Percentage.

For example
70.40% to 70% (the value after the dot is below 50)
70.60 to 71% (the value after the dot is above 50)


Attached screen shot for your reference.

Is there a way, to do this using applescript?

It will saves me a day.

Thanks in advance.

I don't see any way of styling the constituent parts of the graph in the scripting dictionary, I'm afraid. So, unless anyone has a sneaky cheat method then I suspect that the answer is "No".

Anyone care to chip in with a sneaky cheat method?

I guess no-one has a sneaky workaround then. :-(

There may be a way. I'll investigate a few possibilities and get back to you.
