I have done scripting for InDesign wich has a palette for scripts or a start up script folder to run the script from. I am not sure how to start this thing. The next thing I want to do after I figure that out is to count photos in each folder that I select and then add them. The calculator could just be a UI window in Bridge is what I was thinking I just need help getting it going.

I am using a little snippet of mine to get this thing going and the ok and cancel buttons are not working. I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this for me.

























var myOKGroup =  myIDinfo.add (“group”);
myOKGroup.orientation = “row”;
myOKGroup.minimumSize.height = 40;
myOKGroup.add(“button”, [15,80,95,110],  “OK”);
myOKGroup.add(“button”, [15,80,95,110],  “CANCEL”);
myOKGroup.alignment=[“right”,”bottom”];
var myResult = myIDinfo.show();

This works in InDesign.

The snippet you posted had mis-matched quotes everywhere, maybe you are using an editor not suited for the job?

This does work...

var myIDinfo = new Window('dialog','test');
var myOKGroup =  myIDinfo.add ('group');
myOKGroup.orientation = 'row';
myOKGroup.minimumSize.height = 40;
myOKGroup.add('button', [15,80,95,110],  'OK');
myOKGroup.add('button', [15,80,95,110],  'CANCEL');
myOKGroup.alignment=['right','bottom'];
var myResult = myIDinfo.show();
