CS6 javascript tutorial scripts

I apologize if this question has already been answered: I searched the forums with no result.

I'll try to find the scripts that accompany the tutorial available on the InDesign developer documentation site JavaScript pdf

The InDesign developer documentation | Adobe Developer Connection...

The link to the tutorial scripts pointing to examples of scripts, and many more tutorial scripts. I have the tutorial for CS5 files, but many of them do not work for me in CS6.

These files are available elsewhere? I can't find a way to contact Adobe to ask, because the contact support head to the forums.

I have a number of learning resources, but the real scripts are very valuable when I try to follow the tutorials.

Thanks for any help!

I think they are all in the InDesign Scripting SDK, available here:

  • Registration of JavaScript - building Script Photoshop

    Hello

    Is it possible to save the javascript of my work in Photoshop while I work? I know a generator called Script Photoshop app that does this, but the site is apparently missing. http://www.photo-script-Builder.com/

    I would like to be able to see some kind of data if power personalized my actions in Javascript that I complete them so that I can pull code snippets and use them in scripts.

    Ideas of Ant here?

    Thank you.

    It took some searching on Google to find it, but the site is here, now:

  • PS CS6 Javascript

    I use a Mac, but the script works for Mac and PC, great for any Photoshop CS3 or higher.

    Basically, I'm using three different actions.

    1. If the image is over 2000 px wide or high, it will run action "approve".

    2. If the image is between 1200 and 1999 px - it will run the action of 'Acceptable '.

    3 - If the image is smaller than 1199 px - it will run the action "reject".

    I hope that makes sense on what I want.

    DEPARTURES FROM SCRIPT BELOW.

    app.displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO;

    var strtRulerUnits = preferences.rulerUnits;

    preferences.rulerUnits = Units.INCHES;

    var Web_Action = "NWS-APPROVE";

    var = "NWS-APPROVE" approved

    Acceptable var = "NWS-APPROVE";

    rejected var = "NWS-APPROVE";

    This will get rid of the extra alpha channels

    app.activeDocument = docRef;

    var i = 4;

    while(DocRef.Channels.Length>4)

    //{

    docRef.channels [i] .remove ();

    //}

    activeDocument.save ();

    If (activeDocument.width > = 3000 | activeDocument.height > = 3000)

    {

    app.doAction ("approve", "NWS-APPROVE");

    Alert ('small'); or send a message

    activeDocument.close (SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);

    }

    If (activeDocument.width < = 1500: activeDocument.height < = 1500)

    {

    app.doAction ('Acceptable', "NWS-APPROVE");

    Alert ('small'); or send a message

    activeDocument.close (SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);

    }

    If (activeDocument.width < = 1200: activeDocument.height < = 1200)

    {

    app.doAction ("rejected", "NWS-APPROVE");

    Alert ('small'); or send a message

    activeDocument.close (SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);

    }

    preferences.rulerUnits = strtRulerUnits;

    end

    So, after reading some things more. This one works! ".as ('px') is necessary for the program to recognize the specific sizes.

    app.displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO;

    var strtRulerUnits = preferences.rulerUnits;

    preferences.rulerUnits = Units.INCHES;

    This script at the top of the page allows the script to be registered on Photoshop as an action.

    var longestSide;

    If (activeDocument.height > activeDocument.width) {}

    longestSide = activeDocument.height;

    } else {}

    longestSide = activeDocument.width;

    }

    If (longestSide.as ('px')<>

    {

    app.doAction ("rejected", "NWS-APPROVE");

    }

    ElseIf (longestSide.as ('px')<=>

    {

    app.doAction ('Acceptable', "NWS-APPROVE");

    }

    on the other

    {

    app.doAction ("approve", "NWS-APPROVE");

    }

    preferences.rulerUnits = strtRulerUnits;

    end

  • (javascript) My script generates an error in a .psd, but not another

    I have this old script that re-arange each pixel in an image, save the image on the hard drive and then apply the re Arrangement even to the last image, repeat.

    The problem is, sometimes I have to close my pc and then I have to restart the process, using one of the latest - generated files and then the script generates an error

    With the help of my script on this .psd works very well:

    https://DL.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8240354/widescreen-crop-14748750464_94dcb6effe_o.PSD

    With the help of my script on this .psd gives an error:

WRITTEN:  23 marts 2007

AUTHOR:   [email protected]

PURPOSE:  Wild, dude! This script will redraw the picture, one pixel at a time, but it will redraw it horizontally instead of vertically. Sort of if an english text had all its letters redrawn in Japanese writing style. That is: vertically first, and then from right to left.
It does that over and over again. In theory, the image will reappear after several 1000 times. This script is much faster than the previous version, which redraw the image one pixel at a time.

  • CS6 javascript - textBox.contents does not return the full text

    I use script tags to find the text of a certain tag boxes and get their content. Sometimes I'm not all of the content. Is that all that I should check to find my error? It's the js that I use:

    var myPageItems = myDoc.allPageItems;

    for (var i = 0; i < myPageItems.length; i ++)

    {

    I don't have much experience scripts against InDesign and would appreciate any help I could get. Is there a better way than .silence for the text in a text box? Is there an obvious reason why it would fail to retrieve all of the text in some cases?

    Post edited by: rockymcclamrock (removed irrelevant code)

    Hello

    You can get the full text using the content of the TextFrame ParentStory,

    var fullText = myOverFlowFrame.parentStory.contents + ";

    Thank you

  • Why I can't download "Adobe InDesign CS6: JavaScript" documentation?

    I use IE provided with Windows 8 on a computer that Lenovo N581 and Adobe Acrobat XI Pro Version 11.0.2.

    When I click on the link:http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/indesign/sdk/cs6/scri can't/InDesign_ScriptingGuide_JS.pdfv.

  • CS6 - create an index and import a pdf file

    How to create an index for a book, and import a PDF in InDesign CS6. The CS6 InDesign is only allow imports of XML documents not PDFs. Is there a work around for this? And I'm not... to create an index - find the tab from the drop down "subjects."

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    As mentioned earlier, you asked 2 different questions. I hope that this answer allows you to satisfy you with both of them.

    Creating an index:

    The sample file is an extraordinary, but the creation of an index is well explained. InDesign cs6 indexing - tutorial on how to create an Index for your book! - YouTube

    Import a PDF file:

    As I said before, you import PDF images files. You can use the same path than with images: drag and drop, D, file-> Place

    Please pay attention to the 'options import' as you can choose between different "cultures": Bounding Box, Art, Trim, bleed, media.

    For a multiple page PDF, you can choose the page or page range. Etc.

    Nicolas said the "PlaceMultipagePdf" script that you will find in the window-> Utilities-> scripts Panel. Get off at samples-> JavaScript

    This script updates the Pdf pages on a new page. Try, if you are tempted to import a multi-page PDF document.

    As I said before, you can also import other InDesign files. These editable resident files, i.e. you can open and change what must be changed and the imported file will be updated like any other document bound, as Illustrator documents for example...

    Since these files are regarded as "graphics" (equivalent to Illustrator data files), they can't be changed inside InDesign.

  • Can run us javascript function locally within the amx page?

    Hello

    I am totally new to the features of the MAF, let me just 1 thing right, im familiar with the implementation of javascript as on PHP. For example, (1) you can create a js file in a certain directory of your project as long as you can connect properly. And, on the php page, you link such as)<script type="text/javascript" src="file.js"></script>)to be of use inside of your php page or (2)locally run the javascript function inside your php page such as

    function myFunction(){
           Alert("Hello World.");
    }.


    So far what I've done on the tutorial javascript MAF, same case, you need to specify your javascript function inside a .js file and save your js file in your maf function (so that the javascript functions are available and can be called through the java method of AdfmfContainerUtilities.invokeContainerJavaScriptFunction () inside your file of java bean managed). After that, in my case to test the tutorial, I need to create a managed bean method to call the associated javascript function based on my actionlistener to the button that ive created inside my amx page, it didn't work (NOTHING HAPPENED when the button is clicked, as maybe it's because I was wrong by calling the managed bean method or class({viewScope.popupHelperBean.onPopupShowHideAction}). )


    Please follow this tutorial to understand what im referring to topic-> https://blogs.oracle.com/mobile/entry/how_to_open_and_close

    (If someone has already managed to made this javascript tutorial, please inform me so that I can see on my error).


    Now I'm trying a different approach which is to run the javascript locally, it's just that I don't have enough resources that could satisfy my investigation to start with. I met this amx: verbatim terms during my research. Fact amx: verbatim help by running the JavaScript locally.


    Thanks in advance.




    Hello Amey,

    Thanks, I had run successfully the popup alert box based on javascript this tutorial you had linked to me, it seems that I am on the right track on how to run javascript on the page of the amx. Its just that the tutorial I mentioned on my post doesn't seem to work as it should, I'll try to resolve the issues for a while. I just want to share with the community who are new to the MAF and are currently working on the custom javascript on page amx application:

    1. include your js inside your working directory file

    2. Add the javascript code that is personalized to your AMX

    3. create a managedbean and a method that could call the javascript function

    Carefully follow this tutorial as mentioned by Amey have the idea of how the javascript is running on amxpage--> https://blogs.oracle.com/mobile/entry/invoking_custom_javascript_from_an

    By the way, thank you very much Amey.

  • use Image catalog script for the current document

  • Create a gradient of the script.

    Create a gradient by scripts, the command stops and color.

    Do not understand in the document of reference Photoshop cs6 javaScript, how and where to access the gradient.

    Please help me, I can't do day after day...

    The principle of the script consists of scanning in black and white and the texture of the color of the pixel, registration of the colours in the painting.

    So in order to decompose the matrix of color from 0 to 255 black and white texture.

    Until you get the texture gradient.

    0 where blacks where 255 white. each color will be assigned a user ID and it will move to the color in the color gradient texture.

    Sorry for my English.

    Thank you!

    For a large a gradient with script, you must use scriptlistener. Then modify the variables in this code to match what you want. I use this method to create gradients on the forms which are sampled from a reference image.

  • Photoshop uses JavaScript to load documents open in the order of the corresponding color

    Hello

    I am a production artist and I make use of the corresponding color command a lot in my work. I often 6-10 Photoshop documents open and one of them is designated as my master document. With this document, I run the command of the corresponding color. Inside of the dialogue of the corresponding color, I charge one of the other open documents in the Source dropdown under statistics of images. I click Ok, and then save the master document under a new name. I have to repeat this step for all open documents. Naturally, it becomes tedious.


    I started to write a script to automate this process, but I can't find the syntax for the corresponding color. I have the Adobe Photoshop Cs6 Javascript Scripting reference, but have been unable to locate in this PDF file. I tried to look online, but no luck. Does anyone know what syntax to use as well as associated properties / methods?

    Thanks for any help.

  • What tools to use to create a user interface for a plugin CEAP for CS6 on a Mac

    I see that the suggested UI tool for CC's HTML5, but which must be used for the development of a plugin that will also run in CS6 on a Mac?

    For CS6, you can create using ScriptUI panels, to add a Panel in the window menu.

    A script like this would be installed here:... \Adobe after effects CS6\Support Files\Scripts\ScriptUI Panels\

    For ScriptUI, there are some documents in the JavaScript Tools Guide, accessible from the application ExtendScript Toolkit > help > JavaScript Tools Guide; and also here - http://www.kahrel.plus.com/indesign/scriptui.html

    myDoc var = app.documents.add)

    var myTextFrame = myLayer.textFrames.add)

    myTextFrame.contents = "Hello world!"

    If you look at this PDF again you will see that you copied a script of Illustrator. Each application has it's own object model. There is some overlap, but you're better off using the Photoshop JavaScript Ref.PDF for the Photoshop object model. For example the layers Photoshop isn't an add method, only the artLayers and layers games have. And Photoshop is not a class textFrame. Instead, he artLayers with the kind the value LayerKind.TEXT property.

    Here's how you could do the same thing in Photoshop.

    myDoc var = app.documents.add ();

    myLayer var = myDoc.artLayers.add ();

    myLayer.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;

    myLayer.textItem.contents = "Hello world!"
