Hello friends, I'm back to my project.
After installing "everything needed" on a new laptop I can now run ESTK as intended and hence want to use breakpoints etc.
But my breakpoints do'nt halt the script:
How can I run the script from the menu to the breakpoint and then tip-toe through the script?
I have not found any hint in the JavaScript Tools Guide.
Thanks Klaus, for thinking...
In the evening with some spacial and timely distance to the computer I had this idea:
After commenting out messages (which in my case try to create a window - which was not accepted) the script halted at the breakpoint.
And now the solution for the real problems are waiting...

Hi Klaus,
let me guess:
- Your new windows is running windows 8.1 ?
- you are using include-files? (where your breakpoints are placed?)
That's what happened to me.
You have to select for every single include-file FrameMaker and not ExtendScript Toolkit. On Windows 7 I didn't have to do that.
You can try to force that, by starting the script with F10/F11. That SOMETIMES works for me.
On Windows 8.1 ESTK also ignors #target framemaker.
