Is this a script written by two people? It would be nice to combine them into one.

Aren't these the same scripts written by the same person?
Not sure why they aren't merged into one.

They each have their own advantages and disadvantages.
It would be great if they could be merged.

 

Also, the “Editor query in Grep editor” in “Grep query manager” seems to be disabled, and you can only right-click on it. You can only right-click on it, and you can't change the lookup box in the ID.

It's a pity that the font can't be enlarged.


Thank you very much.

Correct answer Peter Kahrel

> Aren't these the same scripts written by the same person?

 

They were indeed written by the same person.


> Not sure why they aren't merged into one.

 

They serve diferent purposes, combining them just complicates things unnecessarily.

If he Grep editor isn't installed, the button to start it in the query manager is disabled.

 

It's a pity that the font can't be enlarged.

 

Agreed. But that's up to Adobe.
