One quick way to tell is to use the (cntrl-y) keyboard combo to view outlines. If the lines are still sharp, then you'll need to expand the appearance from the object menu before sharpen edges will work.<BR/><BR/>The point of the script is just to remove control handles from an object, so a circle becomes a diamond, a rounded rectangle becomes a rectangular octagon, and a rounded star becomes a gear-like thing.<BR/><BR/>I hope this helps. If this doesn't work, or if you have any more questions, I'll be happy to help. Just pop me an email.

I tried Text Tweak and found some interesting effects there but I do not get Sharpen Edges. I tried with a rounded corner star but I think I need a bit more instruction on how to use this script. Any help?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for making these scripts though. I'll be sure to check out the others.<BR/><BR/>Gary.Gary Spedding, Ph.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12152769931208557146noreply@blogger.com
