Hello, 

 

I have looked arround for information regarding making an InDesign plugin which comprises of a user interface panel and some buttons to run scripts. (Yes, the scripts could be run via shortcut, however a formalised pannel would be a nice goal). 

 

I have looked at the documentation and there is and there is a query close to mine here 
https://forums.creativeclouddeveloper.com/t/what-to-create-a-plugin-panel-that-has-multiple-buttons-to-run-scripts-i-have-developed/8014

 

However it was not much help to me. 

 

Any suggestions would be ace. 

 

Best, 

 

Smyth

Just to clarify. You are scripting in UXP, correct?

I have done this thing in Illustrator using CEP. I will need to look into my UXP plugins.

Hello, 

 

yup UXP. I have had a go at downloading even the basic starter samples, e.g. hello world button dockable panel. But I run into issues even on basic stuff such as this, e.g. no hello world pop up etc. 

 

I would be interested in collaborating, or finding a good example of a working set up so I can further understand. 

 

Any thing that I have found has been quite primilimary. 

 

Best,
