Create table of all the names of files in the target folder on the desktop using ExtendScript?
I am trying to write a script that will watch a folder target on my computer and retrieve the paths for each of the files inside this folder and then store them in a table. This table will be then available later to add paths to the individual files in target comps. So far I have failed to find ways to achieve this, is it possible to say ExtendScript to create a table based on the contents of a finder folder?
Thank you!
Once you have the file, this will give you a table of all the files (and folders) in the folder:
myFiles var = myFolder.getFiles ();

List of all the fonts used in a document?
If I understand correctly, TextFonts is a collection of all the fonts that are available on Illustraot. There is a collection of all the fonts used in the document currently open? Or should I scroll each textFrame a create this list myself?
I don't know why and how you write the error log, so I only add a single alert after all. "xmpString" and "XMP library" are two different methods, you only need one, then.
#target illustrator var inputFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select a folder contains '*.eps' files "); if (inputFolder) { var fileList = inputFolder.getFiles('*.eps'), fontsInfo = []; loadXMPLibrary(); for (var i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) { if (fileList[i] instanceof File && fileList[i].hidden == false) { fontsInfo.push(getFontsInfo(fileList[i])); } } unloadXMPLibrary(); } var Loginfo = new File(inputFolder + '/Font.info.txt'); Loginfo.open('w', 'TEXT', '????'); var info = fontsInfo.join('\n\n'); Loginfo.write(info); Loginfo.close(); if (/(Open Type|TrueType)/.test(info)) { alert('Open Type / TrueType font found, see log file for details!') } function getFontsInfo(file) { var arr = ['File: ' + decodeURI (file.name)], xmpFile, oXmp, fontNumber, i, path, fontname, fonttype, ns = 'http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/t/pg/'; xmpFile = new XMPFile(file.fsName, XMPConst.UNKNOWN, XMPConst.OPEN_FOR_READ); oXmp = xmpFile.getXMP(); //Returns an XMPMeta object fontNumber = oXmp.countArrayItems(ns, 'xmpTPg:Fonts'); xmpFile.closeFile(XMPConst.CLOSE_UPDATE_SAFELY); if (fontNumber) { // if there's at least 1 font, proceed for (i = 1; i <= fontNumber; i++) { path = XMPUtils.composeArrayItemPath(ns, 'xmpTPg:Fonts', i); fontname = oXmp.getStructField(ns, path, XMPConst.TYPE_FONT, 'fontName'); fonttype = oXmp.getStructField(ns, path, XMPConst.TYPE_FONT, 'fontType'); arr.push([i, '. ', fontname, '-', fonttype].join('')); } } return arr.join('\n'); } function loadXMPLibrary() { if (!ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript) { try { ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject('lib:AdobeXMPScript'); } catch (e) { alert('Unable to load the AdobeXMPScript library!'); return false; } } return true; } function unloadXMPLibrary() { if (ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript) { try { ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript.unload(); ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = undefined; } catch (e) { alert('Unable to unload the AdobeXMPScript library!'); } } }

How to create a shortcut on the desktop?
desktop shortcut
where can I get the shortcut on the desktop
I might have misunderstood your question entirely.
A longer sentence with a development could avoid this.
With nothing good to go on, my answer would be... you must create it.
Example: create a shortcut on the desktop of Windows Media Player...
Start button > all programs > scroll down the list to find Windows Media Player > right click it > click send to > select desktop (create shortcut).
A Windows Media Player shortcut is now on your desktop.

Get information for clip loaded in the source using ExtendScript monitor
Hello
So, the short version: I was wondering if there is a way to get information about the clip currently loaded in the source, using ExtendScript monitor. Specifically, I am interested in the name, from timecode and in/out points. I don't see anything obvious in the ExtendScript Toolkit data browser, but I thought I'd ask.
The long version of what I'm trying to do: I have a clip in the source monitor Panel that I know is in the active sequence. I would take the points of entry/exit from the source element and those like entry/exit points in the sequence. It's kind of a hack to get around the fact that you can't associate speech analysis with a multicam clip so I cut with one of the audio clips in the multicam clip and then I am translating those points to the multicam editing sequence. I have a way to do it with an AppleScript macro, but I would find a more robust solution (and cross-platform).
Thank you!
There is no possibility of returning to an element of the Source monitor to real projectItem in Agency CC 2015.
However, you are not the first to ask such a feature, and (ahem) I can neither confirm nor deny that it can be added in the near future.

Hi dear I have not much experience in batch file writing but forums I dig a code and try to shape according to my requirments but after beating head couldn't get the correct result comes in front of you people help me please. file code of my baby
off @echo
MD C:\tempbackup\DAY_%DATE%
MD C:\DAY_%DATE%
Create shortcut f t C:\tempbackup\DAY_%DATE% - n "\Documents and Settings\eric\Start Menu\Proams"
using this code, it create a folder and a file on the desktop as well, but is not a shortcut, it is just a file by name as the file Tempbackup.
Basically, I want like this
(1) I want to create the shortcut from the folder on the desktop of the file created in the folder Tempbackup
(2) this file beats on execution will also remove old one day from the desktop shortcut
so when I see this file to run. n IT run create the file in the specified folder, but no shortcut or create a shortcut without a path. When I click on the shortcut, it ask me how to open this file. so it's not a good shortcut or not a correct path.
as I think that it good to mention here, that there is no other shortcut to other desktop I want to create so all DELETE option works perfectly.
Please help me like you people can help...
Eric
ericciscoHello
Try these steps-
Create the shortcut proposed (to cmd.exe/c start)
Now, open properties such as proposed
Add the full path in the 'Target' field with your own relative path and the app, for example
%windir%\system32\CMD.exe /c start your_relpath\app.exe [your_args]That's all. However, doing so does not change the current working of the called program directory. If this is desired, then enter the following alternative:
%windir%\system32\CMD.exe /c "cd your_relpath & start app.exe [your_args].The & is described as a command separator (see cmd /?). Note: Put something like '% CD%\your_relpath\' in the field ' start in ' doesn't do anything.
You can try this as well-
Create .bat file close record/yarn that you want to have the relative path
Edit the file, and the file type: (as you want to open c:\bin\app.exe, and then place file beats in c:\run.bat)
Departure bin\app.exe
Save the run.bat file and double-click it to open it.
