afterSelectionChanged & afterSelectionAttributeChanged events in Illustrator

[Underware]

Hello there

What would be the most simple to use the native InDesign events 'afterSelectionChanged' & 'afterSelectionAttributeChanged' in Illustrator?

[Silly-V]

You probably have to make a .aip plugin to have such events accessible by Illustrator scripting.

Can the .aip plugin be bundled within an Extension?

What is the minimum level of knowledge, in order to write .aim-extension? Good knowledge of C++?

[Ten A]

C++ is necessary.

If you need to UI, You have to know CEP HTML extension.

We can reference common HTML5, Javascript(not Extendscript) and  CSS article in around the web.
