Access 'app' from Angular extension

I'm at the point where I don't see the forest for all the trees... I'm working on an extension with Angular that is supposed to interact/modify the current Illustrator document. But I can't access the global 'app' variable. Example: I try to get the name of the current document. new CSInterface().evalScript("alert(app.activeDocument.name")...I get the name in an alert, but how can I get the name string directly in my Angular service (in this case)???

Change Extension Title Tab Color?

Hey everyone, do you know if its possible to change the color or font of the title tab of an extension? Those tabs seem to be the same color all over Illustrator so I assume its something we can't modify (for consistency reasons) but I'm curious if it can be done.Thanks!

csInterface.evalScript not working correctly

Hi guys. I am pretty much stomped on this one. I am sure I'm making a mistake but I can't see it. Maybe more eyes will help.Here's what is happening:I get ad alert from LogRead JSX function on startup which is blank. This works just fine. The second time on a triggered event in the main.js it does not alert which means it's not working, nothing happensHere's the code snippets:MAIN.JS - ON START UPcsInterface.evalScript('LogRead(\'\',' + logfilepathname + ')');HOSTSCRIPT.JSX//save a text file or write new datafunction LogRead(newfiledata,filepathname){    //read data   alert(newfiledata);    var vfiledataread = FileDataRead(filepathname);    if(vfiledataread == ""){        //create settings file if not created        FileDataCreate("theme: Default__",filepathname,"w");      };       if(newfiledata > ""){  &nbsp

Producers: A new Adobe Exchange is coming!

Dear Producer, We are excited to announce our new and improved Add-ons marketplace, Adobe Exchange. As many know, we pushed the release back. This gave Producers extra time to prepare assets according to the new guidelines, and Adobe time to deliver an even better marketplace on launch. As a unified destination that brings third-party integrations with Creative Cloud, Document Cloud & Experience Cloud under a single umbrella, Adobe Exchange will make it easier for your customers to discover and install integrations that expand and enhance what they can achieve on Adobe’s Clouds. The new Adobe Exchange marketplace will go live for your customers on March 5, 2018, and the Exchange Producer Portal will be available for you to update and create new listings starting February 15, 2018. Note you will no longer be able to make any changes to your listing on the current Add-ons site after the cut-over on February 15, 2018, but the Add-ons site will remain up for your customers until the ne

CEP Extension, Flickering Cursor when using touch events

Hello,I'm using the lastest Photoshop CC, currently ver 19.1.0 on Windows 10.I'm trying to build a small Photoshop extension (a panel).I've built a little HTML/JS interface.When I use my mouse to interact with it, everything works fine.However, when I try using my graphic tablet (which triggers touch events) I get a strange behaviour :Whenever I drag my pen (touchstart, touchmove, touchend) in my panel, it triggers the thing.Then, when I hover my pen over the main drawing canvas, the cursor flickers and I have to click once to stop it.I should describe better what I call flickering. When the cursor is over the canvas without moving it has the right appearance (the one of the tool i am using), but when I move it, it changes to the regular windows cursor.It's like the cursor is in-between two states, or maybe it's a focus issue.I tried releasing the focus using the event "com.adobe.PhotoshopLoseFocus" on thouchend js event.But it didn't help much.Maybe one of you has already had this iss

Digimarc won't install

I have purchased Digimarc for images and cannot get it to install. I have a MacBook Pro OX S Yosemite version 10.10.5 and Photoshop CC2017. I have tried troubleshooting and rebooting, uninstalling the extension manager and reinstalling it, quitting Photoshop and restarting it. Nothing works. It does not even show up in the filter section at all. The error says ”This extension cannot be installed, it requires Photoshop version 13 or greater.” Help!Pamela Tuckey

CEP and getting started, explain it to me like I'm 5 :(

I feel like I'm a pretty competent computer guy.I can code and script on an amateur level but this CEP and extension thing has got me feeling pretty dumb right now.I mean, I can't even get STARTED!I'm trying to use Brackets as I've seen suggested here.  They have an extension for developing Adobe Extensions, so that seems easy enough (actually there are two).  I have them installed but when I click on "create new extension", it just dumps on me saying there is no extension by that ID in the CEP folder (windows).I'm clearly missing what is probably a VERY obvious step... but in all my googling, I can't find a single thing that is pointing me in the right direction. LOLAnyone lend me a hand here?  I'm trying to code for CC 2018 and I've downloaded the github CEP-Resources-Master.zip but I haven't put it anywhere's yet. Thanks,Bogus8

JSX: Is there a way to get app.opendialog full path?

Hi guys. Is there a way to get the full path of a selected image via the open dialog or using any other method? I'd like to save the path in the extension so that it can be set to the path of the textures folder. The path always opens in the last path used in photoshop at this moment. Basically, I just want to capture the file path that is selected in the extension and set it temporarily until I reset it in the extension function.Here's what I got:fyi: getafilepathtoJS("getfilepath",selectedfile); ---- is an add listener in the main.js that captures the path but it only shows the filename. function step1(enabled, withDialog) {    if (enabled != undefined && !enabled)      return;    var dialogMode = (withDialog ? DialogModes.ALL : DialogModes.NO);    var desc1 = new ActionDescriptor();    var ref1 = new ActionReference();    ref1.putEnumerated(cTID('Lyr '), cTID('Ordn'), cTID('Ba

Questions

Difference between <ExtensionManifest ExtensionBundleVersion> and <Extension Version>?

As I understand it, each ExtensionManifest can contain multiple extensions: they are a package. My guess is that this allows you to include multiple related tools with one installation. When using the ExManCmd tool (--list all command), however, the "Extension Name" field in the output shows the bundle name [and version] rather than the included Extension's name. Is this expected? Could someone please clarify the ambiguity a bit?Further, is the expectation that any time an <Extension> entry in the <ExtensionList> has a version bump that the <ExtensionList> also gets a version bump?

Add-ons installation problems and lack of activity in the CC app

Please note that for all Creative Cloud Adobe application users installing Add-ons, the Creative Cloud Desktop Application should now be used for installation as opposed to Extension Manager CC. (Note that Extension Manager CS6 should still continue to be used for CS6 add-ons users only).When you log into the Extensions website and click the blue button to ‘acquire’ an add-on, after several moments pass, you should see some activity in the Activity Stream in the Creative Cloud Desktop App (as per the image on the right). The stream should indicate whether installation was successful or not. (If you receive an error code, please check the list of errors posted in this article: https://www.adobeexchange.com/resources/19#errors)For Adobe Add-ons users who are experiencing installation difficulties via the Creative Cloud Desktop App where the Activity stream in the app Home tab is NOT reporting any error messages, we would ask you to first of all please restart your computer – particularly

Reset ModalDialog position onscreen

I have a main extension that depending on the situation and context can open up some modal dialogs. For one of those dialogs, the optimal size is not fixed and depends heavily on the context:* User screen size* Content height & widthThe modal opens at 150 x 150px and starts loading its contents. Once this is loaded in the background, I can calculate the desired size of the modal.Using these calculated sizes and the CSInterface.resizeContent method I'm able to set the modal to its ideal size.The only issue here is that the modal is no longer centered after resizing.So the initial modal of 150 x 150px is dead center (which I like), but after resizing the top-left corner will remain in the same place and modal will overflow off the screen, requiring the user to reposition it.So I'm looking for a way to set my modal in the center again, after resizing. I didn't find anything in the CSInterface. Is something like this possible?

Questions

Is there an API for getting the current version of the extension?

We have to put extension version information into the manifest.xml file. Is there a way to access this programmatically from within panel extensions or would it require loading and parsing the XML directly?
