Hi All,I am not experienced with web development and nodejs so excuse me if this sounds very basic. I looked at the article that mentions that we can create a nodejs server in a panel. I was wondering in what practical use cases would this be helpful. I know and have used node packages in my extensions, what advantages would creating a node server give? Also can a node server app access the native application api's as well as we do using csinterface, i suppose not.Thanks,-Manan

I'm writing a panel where it's possible to download files/clips/media from a service, and I want to have the option of downloading those files directly into your Premiere project's project panel or timeline.Do you need to specify where the files need to be downloaded to be placed in Premiere Pro, or can they be placed directly in your project folder?Are there any handy guides or examples that can help me? This post moved from Premiere Pro SDK to Extensions / Add-ons Development. [Moderator]

We have extensions which work when we load them using our DMG; in order to create an Exchange listing we created a zxp for one of the extensions. When I create my listing and download the zxp during "preview" nothing happens; does preview actually install the extension or does the listing require publication first? If so how do I test my zxp since there is no longer a private option?

Downloaded Configurator 4  from labs, tried to install, but get a message that "iinstaller failed to initialize".  Mac Os Sierra 10.12.3. MacBook Pro.Photoshop CC ver. 2017.0.1 (x64)I have Adobe Flash Player, Java Runtime Environment  and Adobe Application Manager , using it fine with related applications, so that shouldnot be an issue. There is no log-file in library/logs/adobe/installers which included text "adobe configurator".And i can't install Adobe Support Advisor, because Extension Manager does not work . Any ideas?

Hello,How could I find the path to the Downloads folder with CSInterface?

Hello, can a script randomly select from lets say a set of 100 actions, two of them and excecute them?I have a make an Actions collection of album designs and I would like to add a feature of random selection (kind of the button "I'm feeling lucky").Can that be possible?

I've been making the transition to VS Code from ESTK, and have got things running, but I am finding the extension breaks often and I have to restart the host frequently.  I'm wondering if other users are experiencing this.  I'm no expert on VS Code, that's for sure, so I'm not sure if certain setting affect the performance of the extension.  I'm getting "Extension host terminated unexpectedly" and "'${file}' can not be resolved."     The latter refers to the configuration file that specifies "program": "${file}" as the file to debug (it's supposed to debug the open file).  Note that the extension runs fine most of the time, but I have to keep restarting.  Also, ES Debugger is the only extension I've installed, so that rules out conflicts between extensions.

Is there someway to have a script's $.writeln output show up in VS Code instead of the ESTK?Thanks

Hey guys,pretty new to this. I got some questions and maybe you can help me out:- what's important when creating an extension?- do I have to use Adobe Exchange to sell the extension?- are there any special requirements for Adobe Exchange?- is the extension legally protected in some way, so adobe is not able to just implement the idea themselves?Would be awesome to get some answers for my questions.

I'm missing the feature from ExtendScript Toolkit where the Console would display the result of the last variable calculated. Do you know if there's a way to set this up in VS Code with the ExtendScript Debugger extension?  It was very handy.

I cannot figure out how to get my extension panel to change its color based on what the user selects in Photoshop Preferences Theme Color.In the CSInterface.js file, I see the following but I just cannot work out what to do with it/** * User can add this event listener to handle native application theme color changes. * Callback function gives extensions ability to fine-tune their theme color after the * global theme color has been changed. * The callback function should be like below: * * @Example * // event is a CSEvent object, but user can ignore it. * function OnAppThemeColorChanged(event) * { *    // Should get a latest HostEnvironment object from application. *    var skinInfo = JSON.parse(window.__adobe_cep__.getHostEnvironment()).appSkinInfo; *    // Gets the style information such as color info from the skinInfo, *    // and redraw all UI controls of your extension according to the style info. * } */Any help would be

Hi there, last year I created a photoshop extension. This year I bought a new 4K monitor and I realised that the UI Icons of the extension are not looking so pretty as the old HD monitor. Is there a way to scale the icons and look better in extreme resolutions?

I'm using illustrator cc 2019I currently have a script that's evaluating a script from cep to jsx.var csi = new CSInterface();var retString = 'blah'csi.evalScript("platePlacement(" + retString + ")")This runs the method platePlacement located in my jsx.  Full code is this:function platePlacement(plateData) {    alert('blah blah');    // open the template    var f = new File("/Users/Desktop/test.ai");    var doc = app.open (f);    // here we set color of text    var col = new RGBColor();    col.red = 255;    col.green = 0;    col.blue = 0;    // activate current document    var aDoc = app.activeDocument;    // aDoc.rulerOrigin = [0, 0];    // aDoc.pageOrigin = [0, 0];    var bkgrndPlate = new File("/Users/Desktop/test2.ai");    var placeFiles = aDoc.placedItems

Hello Community!This is my first ever post here so please pardon me if this is not the right place to ask questions.I am creating a CEP extension that supports HTML5. It generates pie chart by reading values from CSV. I am using devexpress library for pie chart generation. The closet demo of the chart and its controls to my extension can be seen here​.I have created a panel type extension. I can upload a CSV from the panel, the library generates the chart pretty similar to the demo give above. Everything works great except the final step. From the chart generated in the panel, I can't save as image to my local computer. The dialogue to save the file which opens in a browser doesn't work in InDesign.Is there any workaround or solution to this? Thank you!

Hi,When debugging I used to close the extension and restart it via the Window/Extensions to update it in Photoshop.I only needed to restart Photoshop if the Manifest was modified.Now I NEED TO RESTART PHOTOSHOP for a minimal change in a file, this is quite BORING. Is this a bug, do I have system problems or is there a setting to reset so I don't need to restart every time I move a button 2 pixels to the right? All comments are appreciatedPierre

Hi, i'm trying to get file size with cep i did not figure out api in cep to get filesize.here is what i have tried:var path = 'E:\\inbox\\log.txt';var statObj = window.cep.fs.stat(path);// statObj does not contain file size .How can i get file size?.

Using the example here: http://estk.aenhancers.com/10%20-%20Scripting%20Access%20to%20XMP%20Metadata/accessing-the-xmp-scripting-api.html#integr…The script fails on the call toxmp.getLocalizedText( XMPConst.NS_DC, "title", null, "en" )The reason given is:TypeError: Bad argument list, usage: 'getLocalizedText(schemaNS: String, altTextName: String, genericLang: String, specificLang: String): XMPProperty'I have tried passing in "en-US" as the generic and specificLang, but it makes no difference. I also checked the typeof XMPConst.NS_DC, and it is a string. So I don't get what is causing the issue?

Hello,Is it possible to launch a CEP panel from ExtendScript code?  In my previous thread that I posted, I was asking about auto-loading CEP panels from the <StartOn> element in the Manifest XML, but that doesn't seem to work.  So, I thought that maybe there was a method to explicitly launch a CEP panel from an ExtendScript panel.  Any ideas?Thanks,Arie
