[ILCS5] doJavascript in VB and JS

Hi All

I'm new in scripting for illustrator

In Applescript I can use "do javascript" to run an external JS file.

How can I do the same thing in VB and JS?

thanks

Ivan

the VB syntax is

appRef.DoJavaScriptFile "C:\Users\<your name>\Documents\Adobe Scripts\yourJSfile.jsx"

there's no DoJavaScript in JS

Inspiring

You may be able to…

$.evalFile(File('~/Desktop/AlertMeNow.jsx'));

Works, Mark. Great call to get a doScript possibility for ExtendScript. Just tried it with the Zoom script that Jongware rewrote.
