** EDIT : This looks similar to the 2020 timeline-shift bug where clips reverted to first frame after project relinking (Autokroma article). Same symptom — clips back at their original starting frame — but a different trigger this time: it happens immediately on save/reopen for any clip trimmed through a UXP panel. **The problem:When a UXP panel trims the start of a video clip on the timeline, the trim works correctly while the project is open. But when you save the project, close it, and reopen it, every trimmed clip jumps back to its original starting frame — the trim is gone.The same trim works fine on audio clips. Only video is affected.What I've noticed:This happens on regular video clips and on multicam clips — every video track item is affected. It started with Premiere Pro 26.2. Earlier versions handled this correctly. If I use the razor tool (C key) manually, those cuts survive save/reopen just fine. If I use the keyboard shortcut to move a clip up a track manually, that survi

Hi everyone,I’ve been facing a small but common issue when working with PDFs — sometimes everything looks fine in the document, but when printing, the printer either doesn’t respond or the output isn’t correct.This becomes frustrating especially when printing important files like reports or forms.To avoid this, I’ve started testing a simple approach where I quickly check the printer first (like printing a basic test page) before sending the actual PDF.I’ve been trying this with a simple just to confirm whether the printer is working properly before printing important documents.I wanted to ask:Do you follow any similar steps before printing PDFs from Adobe tools? Are there any built-in ways in Adobe Acrobat to verify printer readiness?Would really appreciate your suggestions.

Hi everyone,I’ve noticed that sometimes printing PDFs can be tricky—documents don’t print, or the output isn’t correct. I’m curious how others usually check that their printer is working properly before printing important PDFs.Do you have any simple steps or tips to quickly test printer functionality before sending large documents to print?Would love to hear your advice.

Hey everyoneI’m moving my site https://usadraftsman.com/ from WordPress to Dreamweaver and running into some HTML and CSS issues. Some pages look off, elements are overlapping, and a few scripts aren’t working like they did before.I’ve tried cleaning up the code but it’s still messy. Has anyone done a similar migration? Any tips for keeping the layout consistent and fixing these quirks would be really helpful.Thanks a lot

    Hello, I'm not a coder but I'm a professional artist who uses photoshop that is trying to solve certain problems by creating plugins. I've tried all the popular AI's to vibe code very very simple plugins (such as call the count tool, something action script cant do for example) but I notice it doesnt work well. (Im sure all the coders out there are laughing right now and I dont blame them).Here is my idea/suggestion:Can adobe train an AI model to help non artist create UXP plugins as all the current AI models I tried can do extend script (the old plugin method adobe is fazing out) fairly well but the new UXP scripting method photoshop uses for plugins it cant.  I notice most of the popular AI's cant figure out how to do simple things like call a specific photoshop tool with a UXP plugin, but with extend script it can. Maybe its because UXP is faily new so for the documentation AI doesnt know it well. It would be incredible if adobe did something different with AI and

Hey everyone,I’ve been experimenting with small web development projects recently and decided to build a Gratuity Calculator API for learning purposes.The idea came from exploring how different salary end-of-service computation tools work online understanding their formulas, data validation, and API logic. I wanted to replicate something similar, but in a cleaner, developer-focused way.Here’s a simple example of the core logic I used in Node.js (Express):const express = require('express');const app = express();app.use(express.json());app.post('/api/gratuity', (req, res) => { const { basicSalary, yearsOfService } = req.body; if (!basicSalary || !yearsOfService) { return res.status(400).json({ error: 'Missing parameters' }); } const gratuity = (basicSalary * 21 * yearsOfService) / 30; res.json({ gratuity });});app.listen(3000, () => console.log('Server running on port 3000'));I’ve kept it simple for now, but I’m planning to extend it with:Input validation (for salary/date f

Hi there,  I'm currently putting together a little in-depth ScriptUI for beginning scripting students.I find UXP and CEP very difficult for them. jsx is the easiest to understand. I have tested a 3x3 tiled arrangement of icon buttons on a dialog with code like this. var dlg = "dialog{text:'" + app.name.replace(/^Adobe /, "") + "', orientation:'column', spacing:0, margins:[4,4,4,4], "; for(var i = 0; i < 3; i++){ dlg += "G" + i + ":Group{orientation:'row', spacing:0, "; for(var j = 0; j < 3; j++){ dlg += "B" + j + ":IconButton{size:[15,15], icon:'~/desktop/icon.png'},"; } dlg += "}"; } dlg += "}"; var win = new Window(dlg); win.show(); Currently, the appearance transforms in various ways depending on the host application.Perhaps AfterEffects and Premiere will have their own unique results.2025      and 2023      Is there any way to unify the appearance on all applications? My preferred result is InDesign 2023.   Best regards.

I couldn't find a straight-forward way of determining whether a ProjectItem is a subclip. One way could be is to utilize "ignoreSubCLips" flag of "findItemsMatchingMediaPath", but I can't use that in my solution since I couldn't provide a "pathToMatch" parameter on that part of the code. What is the best way to do this?  

Hi, I am curious to know about CEP support. In the CEP documentation. It is mentioned that 2021 will support CEP 11. https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/CEP-Resources/blob/master/CEP_11.x/Documentation/CEP%2011.1%20HTML%20Extension%20Cookbook.md.I can see that till 2024 there is no issues with CEP and the older CEP extensions created are working fine till 2024. But with start of 2025 there seems to be some sort of issues.So my question is till which version we should use CEP and what should we use for furture cases

Quelqu’un pourrait-il m’aider à transcrire un script du format .scpt en .jsx ? Merci

I'm trying to find information, e.g., how to upload and retrieve large video files to the cloud storage via an API. I found an old post: https://community.adobe.com/t5/coding-corner-discussions/is-it-possible-to-automate-creative-cloud-file-sharing-using-apis/m-p/11625948 Which led me to this:https://forums.creativeclouddeveloper.com/t/no-longer-accepting-new-libraries-integrations-after-march-28th/6024 Does this mean that this is not possible at the moment? I think I have a cool project in mind.

I’m a developer working on my first Photoshop plugin using UXP Dev Tools. I was wondering if I need to pay for a license to develop plugins. Is there any way to do this without paying for a full Photoshop license?

I know how to write the code (*.jsx) that will draw a path in Illustrator. By path I mean a number of path points (anchor point, pair of direction points, ...). BUT is there a way to ‘get’ the location of .Anchor, .LeftDirection, .RightDirection. from a selected path? So, from drawing to code...

UPDATE: I have since learned some basic javascript and achieved what I wanted.Hello community. For years I have wanted a way to assign a shortcut to the Align Left and Align Right buttons, but I have been unsuccessful in my search for this mystical creature. If anyone knows of a way to do this in a script or otherwise, I would appreciate it if you shared this with me. Currently I am using Keyboard Maestro to accomplish this, however there is a limitation when I change the application window size and the button locations move. I am not very knowledgeable in Javascript but I have tinkered with it, sometimes successfully so. However, I can't seem to find the magical ingredient to simply mimic these buttons. Any help is gratefully appreciated.

I am looking for a specific script that will center a new artboard under an existing artboad.  The new artboard would be 7 to 10 points wider than the original. Like adding a boarder with an artboard.I've had a lot of luck creating actions to automate so much of my extremely repetetive file editing, but this is one that still kills my time.  Currently I have to deselect all of the art, switch to artboards, duplicate the original artboard, make the duplicate 7 points wider and taller, align the artboards, select direct selection tool(v), Select all(cmd A), and then center everything on the original artboard.Any help would be appreciated.

Hope you agree.

hey, I'm calling this line:   File.openDialog(false, filterTypes, true)  where filterTypes is defined as:  var filterTypes = function (file) { file.name.match(/\.mp4$/i) || file.type == "MP4" }  But no matter what I try, the Explorer does not filter any files. I also tried to pass a function that only return false, tried passing a string filter, but had no success. I followed the docs:"A filter that limits the types of files displayed in the dialog. In Windows,a filter expression such as "Javascript files:*.jsx;All files:*.*". In Mac OS, a filter function that takes a File instance and returns true if the file should be included in the display, false if it should not." thanks

I've been struggling with the Regular Expression implementation of ExtendScript quite a bit, because it doesn't parse Regular Expressions correctly. The following information may be helpful to others: The ExtendScript Regular Expression parser fails to correctly parse positive character groups (characters enclosed in square brackets). Quantifiers and the dot (".") don't make sense in a positive character group, so characters representing these quantifiers are not escaped in positive character groups. However, for the ExtendScript Regular Expression parser to interpret positive character groups, you MUST escape those characters. For example: A valid Regular Expression like this: /[?.*]/ … must be written like this in ExtendScript: /[\?\.\*]/ … for the ExtendScript Regular Expression parser to accept the Regular Expression.
