Hello, Coders,

I'm trying to create an InDesign Extension that will allow me to hold buttons/Links to some of my JavaScripts. However, with ChatGPT, I can create an Extension, but it does not display any buttons/Links, I tried a lot, but nothing works. The link below holds the bundle I'm using to create a ZXP.

I'm on MAC OS 14.4.1 using InDesign CC 2017 to CC2024.

I use "Anastasiy's Extension Manager" to install the ZXP extension.

 

I created a Palette, but that requires loading from the Script Panel, so instead, I'm trying to create a menu item that will always be available under the Extension and can be docked to my workspace.

 

Can you please help me create a ZXP template, so that I can add buttons/Links and JSX scripts to it as per my requirement.

 

Thanks,

 

 

The current output Extension Palette does not display any buttons/Links…

 

Instead of a Blank Extension Palette, I want something like this…

    I've moved your post from Coding Corner where it has not been answered for over two months to the InDesign forum.
