Easter eggs are hidden program features purposely included by the software programmers. They often reveal secret screens and messages. Here's one to reveal all of Illustrator's code names. (Tested in version 8 and 9 for Windows)
Time Required: N/A
Here's How:
- Open Illustrator and be sure to have an open document.
- Go to Window > Swatch Libraries > Other Library.
- An Open dialog will appear. Choose the Illustrator executable (Illustrator.exe).
- A swatch will appear displaying an Illustrator icon.
- Click on the menu arrow in the top right corner of the swatch palette and choose Name or Name View.
- A list of all Illustrator's code names will appear.
Tips:
- The code names will only appear once per Illustrator session.
- Code names are how the developers refer to a software product while it is still in the development stages.
