ExtendScript try/catch difference when the script took the ESTK and Illustrator

Hello

I wrote an ExtendScript for Illustrator using the toolbox toolbox ExtendScript (ESTK).  It works fine when running scripts it in Illustrator from the ESTK (using the target application functionality).

However when I run it directly in Illustrator (by selecting it in the drop-down file menu > Scripts) I get a runtime error.  Is this normal?  Should I expect differences when you run the script in these two different ways?

The error is in this feature...

```

function itemUsable (arr, item) {}

use var = true;

try {}

arr [point];

usable = true;

} catch (e) {}

$.global.alert (e);

usable = false;

}

usable back;

}

```

The code point is around the issue of the Illustrator to throw errors when accessing properties that do not always exist.  Connected ESTK the try/catch statement intercepts the error "No such item" and then sets the function returns false.

When ran directly in Illustrator, the lights error message but the try/catch does not seem to stop the output script.

The only difference I see is when to run the script in ESTK the dropdown next to the application target dropdown is always (and has only the option) 'main '.  Run the script directly in Illustrator, when the error is thrown this menu option drop-down is set to the 'transient' value.

See this screenshot for an example of what I mean

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Try adding $niveau = 0 at the beginning of the script or consult the last entry on the debugging of the ESTK tab

  • Difference between the G20 and G25 models

    Hi people!

    I searched your laptop and I was amazed by the Qosmio.
    When I was going to order it, I noticed that there are many models of the G20 with different specifications. Also, I found G25 on internet research and found no difference between the G25 and G20 except receiver TV G25 is NTSC and G20 was released on March and G25 was in June. Instead, they have the same specifications for the hard drive.

    I live in the Portugal and the model Qosmio I can find that this is the G20-118. I was looking for the model that has 2 x 100 GB SATA HD, but cannot not thought about it.

    Internet research I found Qosmio G20-111 which has 2 x 100 GB SATA HD, but on the web page mentioned that it was a Pentium III processor (ridiculous, isn't?). I was looking for more reliable information.

    Already searched for toshiba pages and found no specifications for all models I found 490LS on the research on the web as the G20 - 102, 105, 106, 108, 109, 111, 118, 123,...

    Can someone help me with this? Are there any reliable web page where I can see the differences between the models? is there a .pdf or anyone who can please give me some advice?

    Money is not a problem at this time to acquire the laptop, I'm looking for only the laptop performance more!

    Best regards

  • What is the difference between the IO and line?

    Hi all

    I'm using Labview 7 and in my mahcine I have an installed 6013 card. However, there was an interface card designed by someone else long ago, on the table, only AO0, AO1,..., A07, DIO0, DIO1,..., DIO7 were printed. In the program, I saw some code to write to digital Line.vi allows you to send data to the digial io. Say that I write for DIO 3, so I understand here DIO 3 means the channel of e/s 3, but online? What is the difference between the channel and the line? When I write the data to a single channel of e/s, are us wriitng a byte or a bit of it? Thank you.

    A channel is usually used with inputs/outputs analog.  Each AI or AO is a string.

  • What is the difference between the stop and restart?

    What is the difference between the stop and restart?  I feel that stopping closed all processes, completely erases RAM memory and clears the cache of the processor.  I need to know if 1) this is a correct assumption and 2) which is better for daily maintenance of the system.  Thank you in advance.

    Hello Jeremy_1976,

    Your support when the judgment is correct. Basically, it stops the process and completely turns off your computer. Reboot, however, temporarily your PC stops, then turn it on again. This happens usually when Windows updates are installed. After installation, the system is restarted (rebooted) so that any update has been successfully installed and works as it should. You can be a little mixed upward the reboot and the hibernation. Reboot is, as I have indicated previously, basically a reboot of your machine. Ultimately, your PC is on again after a reboot. However, hibernation, stores all data currently in memory in a special file, then the PC turns off. When you then turn on your PC, that is, coming out of hibernation, hibernation files is used to restore the status of the PC than when you initially put into hibernation. In other words all the programs you had open before will automatically open and be ready to use hibernation.

    Hibernation or sleep for that matter is for short-term use. It is normal in Hibernate, or sleep if you want to be away from your PC for half an hour or so. If you leave more than I suggest you stop completely.

    A point to remember about hibernation is that, if you use put into hibernation, you can't, once you get out after hibernation, install programs or updates. You have to stop and restart normally to do.

  • Difference between the administrator and built-in Administrator

    What are the differences between the administrator and built in Administrator?

    Built in Administrator account has all of the control of the computer, UAC does not run when you run the built-in Administrator account.

    But in the standard Admin account, User Account control is running.

    In windows 7 and later versions built in admin account exists, but is disabled.

    It will be useful.

    What is the difference between a bird and an OWL?  An OWL is a special type of a bird.  All owls birds, but not all birds are fun.

    Similarly, a function is a particular type of expression.  All functions are expressions, nut not all expressions are functions.

    In fact, the CAST is a function, but you're not wrong when you say "CAST is an expression.

    Maybe you wanted to say, not MOUNT.  CASE expressions are expressions, but not the functions.

    The technical difference between the functions and the other types of expressions has to do with how they are being implemented and is not all that important to users.  Is DECODE function?  It depends on which version you use.  The Oracle 6, it was a function; in Oracle 8, it wasn't; Since Oracle 9 it is again a function.  I don't know what has changed; Maybe the documentation.

  • difference between the view and the procedure

    Hi Master,

    Today I received a request from my senior technical leader... !!

    Q > what is the difference between the view and the procedure?

    I got response like this...

    A view represents the logic of one or more tables/views. It won't take no place in db... It is a virtual table, query will only store in db... useful

    for safety... If the main table has obtained changes... automatically discovers also change... etc.

    Proecudure is a db object will be performs a perticular action... It may or may not return values. ?

    But somehow, he isn't happy... He expects more... .very close view of diff. b & w and procedure.

    How a view and procedure may do the same thing?  They are two different things with different objectives.  You use the correct one depending on what you want to achieve; they are not interchangeable.

    And another question...!

    (Q) how you will store Japan, characters of China in a database table? will there be a new feature in Oracle 11 g?

    (A) I use dbms_lob package? Japan/China characters are multi byte characters... so we can use the nclob data type?

    is this correct... ?

    No, it not there no novelty in Oracle 11 g for the storage of Japanese or Chinese characters, because there is already a feature for their storage in previous versions as well.  It is determined by the parameters characterset and nationality that you use when you create the database.

    Why would you choose to store them in a LOB using DBMS_LOB?  Yes, they have multibyte characters, but if you have configured your database for the correct character sets, for example using UTF - 8, then you can store the characters in VARCHAR2, like any other language.  The only difference is that the storage of 4000 bytes limit still applies, so you maybe isn't able to store 4000 multibyte characters in a varchar2 column 4000 single-byte, it can be as little as 1000 characters if they are all characters in 4 bytes.  (Note: 12 c limit in SQL can be increased up to 32,767 characters, to harmonize it with variable varchar2 PL)

  • What is the difference between the model and its clone in VMware?

    What is the difference between the model and its clone in VMware?

    Clone

    A clone is a copy of the virtual machine.

    You can't convert back the cloned Virtual Machine.

    A Clone of a Virtual Machine can be created when the Virtual Machine is running

    Cloning can be done in two ways: Clone full and linked Clone.

    A full clone is an independent copy of a virtual machine that shares nothing with the parent virtual machine after the cloning operation. Continuous operation of a full clone is entirely separate from the parent virtual machine.

    A linked clone is a copy of a virtual machine that shares virtual disks with the virtual machine of parent on a regular basis. This preserves disk space and allows multiple virtual machines to use the same software installation.

    Cloning of a virtual machine can save time if you are deploying several similar virtual machines. You can create, configure, install the software on a single VM and then clone several times, rather than the creation and configuration of each virtual machine individually.

    Model

    A model is an original copy or a reference image of a virtual machine that can be used to create many clones.

    Models can be turned on or edited and are harder to change than usual of virtual machine.

    You can convert the model to the Virtual Machine update model base with the latest released patches and updates and to install or upgrade any software and still convert to template to use for the future deployment of Virtual Machines with the latest patches.

    Convert virtual machine model cannot be performed, when the virtual machine is running.  Only the Clone to the model can be performed when the Virtual Machine is running.

    A model offers a safer way to preserve a virtual machine configuration that you want to deploy several times.

    When you clone a virtual machine or deploy a virtual machine from a template, the cloned virtual machine resulting is independent of the virtual machine or the original model.

  • The difference between the background and process

    In the document 'A BEA Tuxedo ATMI application using C programming', he mentions "by context basis" and "process basis. Please tell me the difference between the context and the process? Thx a lot.

    Bill,

    A context of Tuxedo is a connection to Tuxedo, also known under the name of an application association.

    If you do not use the TPMULTICONTEXTS flag when calling tpinit() and you do not specify a value MAXDISPATCHTHREADS is greater than 1 in the UBBCONFIG file for the servers then a framework and process will be the same.

    tuxputenv() is similar to the C library function putenv() function. tuxreadenv() reads a file and running tuxputenv() for each line of the file. tuxgetenv() is similar to the C library function getenv() function.
    The variables must be set before the time they serve. Thus, a tuxputenv() for a Tuxedo as the TUXCONFIG, TUXDIR, or WSNADDR system variable would be effective before when a client called tpinit() but would have no effect for a customer who has already called tpinit().

    Kind regards
