  • Updating illustrator files

    Posted by Hamish Boyd on April 13, 2008 at 11:47 pm

    Hi all,

    In Invigorator Pro, how do you update the source illustrator file?
    In After effects, if I want to re edit a source file I simply do what I need to do on the source file in Illustrator or photoshop then ‘reload footage’ to bring in those changes into AE.

    I basically have a simple three line text with a graphic object all as one illustrator file.
    I have need to tweek the kerning and the original colours. How can that be automatically updated in Invigorator.

    Thankyou!

    Hi,

    When you open your ai file in Invigorator, you must check the Open As Layer box.

    To update your artwork all you need to do is select it in the Set-Up window then click on the “Reload” button located in the object tab.

    Salut,
    Serge

    aha… thankyou, I had found the reload button, but it was the way I had prepped the AI files that wasn’t right.

    Thanks again.
