Notes
It is not necessary to set the type of the ContentVariable before binding. Illustrator
automatically sets the type to AiGraph.
It is not necessary to set the type of the VisibilityVariable before binding. Illustrator
automatically sets the type to AiVisibility.
GraphItems cannot be created from a script, but existing items can be manipulated like any
other art item.
Example 26.1
' GraphItem
'
' Rotate each GraphItem in the current document
Returns What it does
Nothing Rotates the GraphItem relative to the
current rotation; the object is rotated
counter-clockwise if the Angle value is
positive, clockwise if the value is negative
Nothing Transforms the GraphItem by applying
a transformation matrix
Nothing Repositions the GraphItem relative to
the current position, where deltaX is
the horizontal offset and deltaY is the
vertical offset
Nothing Arranges the GraphItem's position in
the stacking order of the group or layer
(Parent) of this object
