It's not just the usefulness of your tips and tutorials, it is the manner in which you present them with your first- class video/narration/sounds and today's video is yet another example. Brilliant!
Yeah I have been fine-tuning my videos for 2 years now, I hate to watch my older ones as I just cringe at the quality lol. I am still striving to improve though, and thanks for noticing :D
Really great Video, Satori bro. I was not aware of that Option(script) in File section, all the Scripts are really helpful and some are just beyond my expectation. I'm gonna definitely use them all and some more of them too. 😍😍 Thank you so much for this tutorial bud!! I have one request bro, if you don't mind can you please use that music which you used in your past videos? 😅that sounds really Soothing!
This is amazing tutorial i never thought of it. Liked, Saved in collection also Subscribed at first watching your tutorial. Thanks a ton for teaching us.
You CAN crop Images in Illustrator. In this example, you are not effecting the actual image, but the shape it sits inside of. You don't need a script. (1) Draw a box, or circle or any other shape OVER the Top of your Image. Make sure only the stroke is shown and have no fill so you can see the image below. (2) Select both the new shape on top and the Image below. (3) Go to 'Object ---> Clipping Mask --> Make' (4) Done! Later: You can also just select the shape at any time, OR click on the nodes/handles and change the shape by pulling on it. And you can double click on the image inside the shape to move or resize the Image. Think of this method like an Image within a Frame, and the Frame can be any shape you want. (P.S: I find any Script too lazy for the beginning Designer. Learn the fundamentals the longer way and understand what is happening, and only then use Scripts if you are really 'time poor' in a Professional Job and you were 'batch processing' many elements OR repeating the same tedious process many times.

J J You can actually crop in Illustrator without a script. People often wish to crop to get rid of extraneous data to cut down on file sizes. The real question is, why is this guy telling people that you need a script to crop in illustrator when it’s already pretty fast and easy to use.
Using 'Crop Image' ONLY crops a copy of your linked file in a basic manner....and it embeds it. And it only crops in a square/rectangle shape. The method I showed enables the user to draw ANY shape and make a clipping mask (crop) and place the image into that. And if you keep that image in the illustrator file and it remains linked, you can go back out into Photoshop edit it's contrast, colour, appearance or whatever and when you pop back into illustrator, illustrator will note the changes. The cropping method I describe in illustrator does not hurt the initial Photoshop file or change it, it simple puts it in a new shape window you have drawn........and you can draw an shape your heart can imagine. (And a simple tip: Don't mess with the inbuilt qualities of a Photo/Image.....in illustrator. Do that in Photoshop, then bring that adjusted pic back into illustrator. Leave it linked if you 'think' you might change it at a later date. Or, if you're happy with the image ONLY in illustrator, embed it as a copy, which has now lost its link to the original image outside of illustrator. And make your decisions based on possible future changes and files sizes between an illustrator linked file and a fatter file with an embedded image) Cheers
These are awesome! Thank you so much. I do appreciate you sharing the Multiple Scripts link. I found a lot of things that can speed up my process. much appreciated!
That script for cropping image simplify and not contusing for beginners. I remember the first time I use Illustrator I haven't got the way to crop, until I found out that the clipping mask feature is the key.
I've always used Cmd + 7 to "crop" external images to any closed path/shape I choose. I reckon it's technically making a clipping mask, but is this not the same outcome?
@@Andmau2552 nope, I'm talking about cropping. As in the excess pixels are gone. That's my whole point. I got into a bit of a tiff with someone in another comment. And you can do it with a non-rectangular shape.
Hi at 1:43 you began transforming a star shape with what seems to be a keyboard shortcut. Can you please let me know how you did this as it would save me a lot of time.
I use Extended Selection Script in my Adobe Illustrator 2020 but when i want to use goto and click in this script choose any from drop down menu my Illustrator got Hang and Shutdown- End Task ? why
ummm correct me if im wrong but you can crop image in illustrator? you can even see the button at 2:21 on the control panel left of the opacity it says "crop image"
I create action, saving file whit any specific settings. But when i apply same action on second file, its save with the same old file name and overwrite old one. Is there any option to run file saving action with having always a unique name file?????????????
Very good and useful .... one question; Do you have any that are for making patterns? And could you have another one that is for ... do tecellations? Like the Eschers ... (by the way; another very good plugin is one to make dimensions and measure things) Thanks for sharing your scripts
Hi Tom at 2019 few of those outdated and I am using CC + Astute Graphics Plugins. But a question here: do you have any solution fish eye effect which is very effective and fast in Corel but never achieve able in AI in the same quality no matter what I use like 3D or the distortion effects? Thank for uploading the scripts and the video. Cheers.
Awesome scripts, thanks! Question: does a script for simple timeline animations exists in illustrator? Would be cool animating the transition from fractals into illustrator and be able to import them into after E. Cheers!
the difference is that the script re arranges the existing and added points so they're all equidistant. The native feature just adds points to the middle of each segment.

CC 2018 has the crop feature in the properties panel. Actual image crop, no masking or workarounds.
Edit: Great videos, thanks for sharing.
Really great Video, Satori bro. I was not aware of that Option(script) in File section, all the Scripts are really helpful and some are just beyond my expectation. I'm gonna definitely use them all and some more of them too. 😍😍

thank you for commenting, I was about to bust and say the same thing
Agreed. Also the script to break a path up into 4 equal parts seems redundant. You can just use Path>Add Anchor Points

dude!! what?? this is an absolute time saver. THANKYOU!!
Crop can be done natively in AI by drawing a box on top of a image or a group, selecting both and doing ctrl+numpad7 ! No script needed for that !
Mastertiti Gaming This is not crop - it is only clipping mask. Cropping delete pixels. This script probably delete pixels.
Woww very helpful video Thanks
Most welcome
Wow, you're the best!! Thanks for this, I'll be using these scripts asap. Love your channel.
Thanks for your kind words Maggie, and glad you appreciate my content 👍
Select image and crop is now a feature in CC. You can even set you DPI/PPI :)
These are awesome! Thank you so much. I do appreciate you sharing the Multiple Scripts link. I found a lot of things that can speed up my process. much appreciated!
Very nice.....An excellent informative video.....keep it up
hey! in 2020 most of this is still really relevant! i've never used scripts and had no idea they existed! thank you for sharing!
Welcome back to the home of graphic design content on RUclips, enjoy todays tutorial and check the links above!
Hey can you make few tutorials on how to create unique designs (the kind used in logos) without a graphic tablet?
Check out this link for Satori fonts and a few other graphics too (adding much more soon-ish)

Hey, do you have any examples online that you can show me?
@@SatoriGraphics hie, am a beginner. l would like to know if you have a learning illustrator program l can sign up for to learn.
Could anyone tell me to to extend script selection list drop down in AI? Thanks, Satori, everything seems working in CS5.5. Designing is easier now.
Great video Sir Tom. I’ve never used the scripts section before, but I will definitely be doing that soon. As always, have a great day.
They are not very difficult to install, and they can offer you some interesting technique and operations :)
All the best Bernard

Thank you for sharing these scripts. I will definitely try the Circle Fill and Fractalize Scripts.

Crop images in illustrator by drawing a box over your image, select both, then hit Command 7
this is a really great , helpful video,, thanks
Cheers for the comment bro
You are my teacher, 😁👍
Glad to hear that Lush Design
Damn, is there no end to dopeness!!! Some amazing stuff here; Im gonna need a bigger head!
lol the dopeness, thanks dude and hope you are doing well today
Outstanding
thanks a lot man, have a great day
For those wondering. Yes, you can crop an image directly but just square-shaped and not with an external object
Thanks a lot man
I've always used Cmd + 7 to "crop" external images to any closed path/shape I choose. I reckon it's technically making a clipping mask, but is this not the same outcome?
That is incorrect. You can crop to a shape. I use Illustrator for a living and I do it all the time.
@@Saanichian That's masking, not cropping. Still I wouldn't use that script because masking is hella easy.
@@Andmau2552 nope, I'm talking about cropping. As in the excess pixels are gone. That's my whole point. I got into a bit of a tiff with someone in another comment. And you can do it with a non-rectangular shape.
Another stunning video, I downloaded all and practice all, it's really amazing 💖❤

I use Extended Selection Script in my Adobe Illustrator 2020 but when i want to use goto and click in this script choose any from drop down menu my Illustrator got Hang and Shutdown- End Task ? why
very nice
Are you planning on doing another scripts tutorial? This one was awesome and I noticed you have a lot more scripts in your program
ummm correct me if im wrong but you can crop image in illustrator? you can even see the button at 2:21 on the control panel left of the opacity it says "crop image"
Yes but not with an external object
Both are valid points
Clipping Mask?
what about clipping mask?
I've always used Cmd + 7 to "crop" external images. Is this not the same?
I create action, saving file whit any specific settings. But when i apply same action on second file, its save with the same old file name and overwrite old one. Is there any option to run file saving action with having always a unique name file?????????????
Just mindblowing. I am from Bangladesh.
Hey, thanks for the comment and have a good day bro
Very good and useful .... one question; Do you have any that are for making patterns? And could you have another one that is for ... do tecellations? Like the Eschers ... (by the way; another very good plugin is one to make dimensions and measure things) Thanks for sharing your scripts
Awesome tutorials. god bless you........

Thanks for script tools 😁👍
That's all good Rendy, thanks a lot
Thank you, this saves us so much of time.
I like the Design to Circles script. Is there a Design to Squares script?
try converting the circles to squares manually once the script is done

Pretty cool! But that last one just looked like the “add anchor points” function that’s been in illustrator for years.
the difference is that the script re arranges the existing and added points so they're all equidistant. The native feature just adds points to the middle of each segment.
IT would be great if you could provide the 'Round any corner' script download link. I searched on internet and couldn't fine one.
Amazing... I like this niche...
Thank you
Hi Mate, Do you have any thoughts on tips on how to create backgrounds for products
