Making an event listener work (InDesign CC Windows 8).
Hello everyone.
I am tryingn to figure out how to make eventListeners work and something is just not clicking.
I wrote this very simple script that looks like this:
main();
function main()
{
app.eventListeners.add("afterSelectionChanged", myEventHandler);
}
function myEventHandler(myEvent)
{
alert("Something was selected", "Selection change");
}
When I run this script through ExtendScript and then go to the document and select a rectangle, I get the following error message twice:
"The requested action could not be completed because the object no longer exists."
I attempted to run it through the scripts panel to see if that made any difference, but when I attempted to save the file Windows told me that I need to contact the administrator to get permission to write in the Scripts Panel folder. I'm working on that while I wait for any answer that might come forth.
