• Open Directory dialog box does not work in FM 10 if client API is not built with 10 FDK

  Hello

  We have a FrameMaker API client that we have maintained for more than 10 years, since before the FM 6.

  We just brought the code of FDK 7 to 9 FDK so that we can finally move 7 FM support and focus on FM 9 and 10 features. Almost all the code works fine, but we have problems in a function that uses F_ApiChooseFile in FV_ChooseOpenDir mode.

  We do nothing special in the code (I am aware that by passing a value into directory argument can cause the function returns without displaying the dialog box) and you use F_ApiChooseFile in its simplest form:

  IntT err;

  StringT stemp;

  ERR = F_ApiChooseFile (& stemp, (StringT) "Select the folder containing the files to be processed.", (StringT) "", (StringT) "", FV_ChooseOpenDir, (StringT) "");

  When we create our DLL using FDK 9 client and run it in FM 9, the directory chooser dialog box appears correctly and the user can select a directory.

  When the same DLL is running in FM 10, the dialog box does not appear and the function returns immediately with err =-1 and FA_errno no error reported (as if the user has clicked Cancel).

  If I recompile the DLL using FDK 10 dialog work in FM 10, so the problem seems to certainly be related to backward compatibility with a DLL built with an earlier version of FDK.

  Unfortunately, you cannot run a DLL of FDK in FM 9 10 and we do not want to distribute and maintain two different versions of our DLL to support 9 FM and FM 10 users.

  Is there a solution to this?

  This bug was introduced in FM10. Until FM9, FV_ChooseOpenDir was #defined as "3", while in FM10, it was changed to '4' (as part of the evolution of these sets to focus on the value of flag-based). What customers can do to overcome this, is to get the FM using 'FP_VersionMajor' version, and for versions before FM10, they can pass 3 'in FM10, as an argument, the argument will be 4'.

  We will ensure that we will honor the 3 and 4 as "FV_ChooseOpenDir" in the future, but until then, workaround above should work.

• Open/Save dialog box as in Windows 7 appear not

  Hello

  I have an intermittent problem with Windows 7.  I tend to keep the programs up and running for weeks, because every day instead of shutting down the computer, I put on standby.  The problem is, after a few weeks to go in and out of sleep, the open/save as box stops in programs which were broadcast during weeks of dialogue.  Here is an example:

  I open word, excel, firefox, January 1.  I opened random documents by clicking through Explorer or just browse the web.  But I never completely close all programs.  I could open up doc1, doc2, doc3, doc1 close, open doc4, narrow doc2, etc..  All programs stay in memory.  After a few weeks, said Jan 28, if I select file-> open, the dialog box is not pop up.  I can open via the documents Explorer, but no file-> open.  Also, I can't make a file-> save as.  I can do-> file save (saves the document), but nothing that causes the dialog box.  It is reproducible in word, excel, firefox, or any other program, I leave the door open for several weeks.

  Here's the weird second problem.  Say I got word, excel, and firefox open for weeks.  If I exit excel completely, and then restart, the dialog box continues to work in excel.  But it remains broken in word and firefox.

  Everyone race in this issue?  Somehow I can fix this without having to restart the program?  The main reason, it's a problem for me is because I do not often know that this problem occurred.  Hopefully, I'll open a spreadsheet from a web page and start editing.  I try to do a save as, only to find the pop dialog box - up will not appear and I can't save the work I do.  Or I have a word document open for weeks.  I usually just hit the Save button, but this time I want to save it under a different name.  I can't do it while this problem is here and I have to close microsoft word completely to get the box to start working again.

  Thanks for your help!

  Hello

  The key is that every so often, you have to restart things, windows programs, the computer itself, in order clearly to all the memory, unload all managers, the .dll files - indeed clear the cobwebs from the computer. If you do not, you can continue to run into the problem you describe.

  For my part, even if I do not turn off my computer, I restart from time to time to get a fresh start, for me, that means being able to have all the features with drag-and-drop processes; for you, this is the Save as dialogue box.

  Nothing else to do.

  Kind regards

• Can someone help me create a script to repeat to simply open the dialog box to create a link?

  Can someone help me create a script to repeat to simply open the dialog box to create a link?

  the "Connect" command uses the same dialog box as the command to "Place", except for the option "Replace" verified... so, use Ctrl + Shift + P to bring up the place dialog box, select your new image and select the checkbox "replace".

  If check 'Replace' with the mouse slow you down, after you have selected your image, the tab key 'press' 3 times to change the focus, and then press the SPACEBAR to check it out, then ok to place.

• Photoshop opens the dialog box when you try to fill a layer with locked transparent pixels

  This script should set the layer to lock transparent pixels and then fill the layer with a color. She is doing this, except when it is in the filling phase, it opens the dialog box fill, and you have to hit OK.

  If you omit the transparent pixel line, it works as not expected, no dialog boxes.

  Is there a way to remove the box? Or I'm doing something wrong, which is causing the box to open?

  #target photoshop
  app.bringToFront();
  
  doc = app.activeDocument;
  doc.artLayers[0].isBackgroundLayer = false;
  doc.artLayers[0].transparentPixelsLocked = true;
  app.activeDocument.selection.fill(app.foregroundColor); 
  

  Not sure why this is happening.

  But I would recommend blocking the above and using the AM code for a fill that pays tribute to transparency.

  #target photoshop

  app.bringToFront ();

  doc = app.activeDocument;

  doc.artLayers [0] .isBackgroundLayer = false;

  doc.activeLayer = doc.artLayers [0];

• Adobe PDF opens the dialog box "Save as" when you simply save an existing file

  Any time I hit "Ctrl + S", or go to "File - save" when you are working on an existing file, it opens the dialog window "save under. And that is not enough, the window "save under" is this new version which adds an extra step (because he wants to know if I also want to save the file in the cloud) and makes me also navigate the current folder and when I hit save it also opens another dialog asking me if I really want to replace the current file... How heavy one set of steps just to save a file that you opened to make a little change - we do not save money, just save.

  Please, can someone fix this? I think he was born in the current version, the last, so it could probably be a bug (the 'Save' option is set by mistake the method "save under") or a poor handlebars by developers.

  Adobe staff has tried to help me, asking me to "Run as Administrator". This does not solve the problem, and my post has since been ignored...

  Any help would be apprciated. Thank you

• Script to open the dialog box "Insert reference."

  Hello

  I'm trying to get something that I (thought) is quite simple. When I right click I want to add a menu option to the context Menu to open the "Insert cross-reference...." "Dialog box. But I can't seem to progress actually open this dialog box.

  Here's what I have:

  (1) I understand how to add context, based on http://www.hubbers.info/content/customize-indesign-and-incopy-contextmenus menu item

  (2) I understand in general how to launch the menu items, based on http://www.indiscripts.com/post/2010/02/how-to-create-your-own-indesign-menus

  However, I can't seem to understand whence these keys, and what is the key to the reference/menu dialog box. They reference the findKeyStrings() function, but it does not seem to return anything to "Insert cross reference", a name in my language menu item:

  app.findKeyStrings ("hyperlinks and cross-references")

  Result:

  app.findKeyStrings ("Insert cross-reference...")

  Result:

  I tried to change another script I found who poured everything menu ID, to empty the key values. While the "Insert cross-reference...." "and"Links and references"both appear with a box and identification, the KeyString is empty! I'm doing something wrong?

  Thank you

  Here is my script list the IDS:

  var myActions = app.menuActions;
  var myActionsList = Array();
  var counter = Number(0);
  
  var menuMask = null;
  
  var keyString;
  for(var i = 0; i <myActions.length; i++){
  
      var nameStr = String(myActions[i].name);
  
      try {
          keyString = String(app.findKeyStrings(nameStr))
      }
      catch(all) {
          continue;
      }
  
  
      myActionsList.push(nameStr);
      myActionsList.push(String(myActions[i].area));
      myActionsList.push(String(myActions[i].id));    
      myActionsList.push(keyString);
  }
  
  var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
  var myTextFrame = myDoc.pages[0].textFrames.add();
  myTextFrame.geometricBounds = app.activeDocument.pages[0].bounds;
  
  var myMenuActionsTbl = myTextFrame.insertionPoints[0].tables.add();
  myMenuActionsTbl.columnCount = 4;
  myMenuActionsTbl.bodyRowCount = myActions.length;
  myMenuActionsTbl.contents = myActionsList;
  
  

  Ah... Yes it makes sense, so he is right behind them ;-) But you right - it seems that findKeyStrings should ideally ignore these, you want to send the English version, not the "English with all these additional signs.

  In fact, I don't remember. I was almost about to write a bug report. But I think it's just that the script documents are deficient:

  * EDIT *: so if you are on Windows, you can determine the string to go straight. Press alt and use the keyboard to navigate in the menu, this will allow you to see where the ampersand should be added. For example here is my part of the menu:

  There is a much easier way! The signs appear in the title property:

  app.findKeyStrings(app.menuActions.itemByName("Insert Cross-Reference...").title)
  Result: $ID/New XRef...
