Adobe Tools

A collection of Actions and Extendscript scripts for various Adobe products

Illustrator

Actions

Sheedy Actions

Prepare Selection for Sketch outlines the stroke of the selection, unifies the path, converts it to a compound path and copies to the clipboard ready for pasting into Sketch (uses the wholePixelResize script.

Steps
  1. Download the files
  2. Move or copy Illustrator/Actions/Sheedy Actions.aia into /Applications/YOUR_VERSION_OF_ILLUSTRATOR/Presets/en_US/Actions/
  3. Open Illustrator
  4. Select the artwork that you want to prepare for Sketch
  5. Open the Actions Panel and select "Prepare Selection for Sketch" then click the play icon at the bottom of the panel
  6. Switch to Sketch and paste

If the action does not show up, click the fly-out menu from the actions panel and select "Load Actions..." and navigate to the above folder.

Illustrator has a bug in it when it comes to scripts. If you don't see wholePixelResize listed in the steps of the action under Make Compond Path, follow these steps:

  1. Rollover (yeh, really, rollover) File > Scripts > wholePixelResize
  2. Select Make Compond Path in the list of steps in the action
  3. From the Actions fly-out menu, Record Again then Insert Menu Item
  4. Select File > Scripts > wholePixelResize
  5. From the Actions fly-out menu again Stop Recording

It should look like the image below.
