[Yuliascript]

Hi,

I have script for dialog with radio buttons, but I need it to be with check boxes instead ( in Illustrator CS6, javascript 😞

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
dialogSelection ();
function dialogSelection (docSize){
/////////////// DialogBox Definition///////////////////////
var resultBox=false; 
var ressource="dialog {  \
text: 'Standard Spot Colors', frameLocation:[100,100], \
MyPanelTemplates: Panel { orientation:'column', alignChildren:['left','Top'], \
               text: 'Please select Spot Color', \
               title: Group { orientation: 'column',  \
                         myColor1: RadioButton { alignment:'left', text: 'Red', value:true}, \
                         myColor2: RadioButton { alignment:'left', text: 'Green', value:false}, \
                       myColor3: RadioButton { alignment:'left', text: 'Blue', value:false}, \
                              } \
                   }, \
Valid: Panel { orientation:'column', alignChildren:['left','Top'], \
               title: Group {  \
                         CancelBtn: Button { text: 'Cancel', properties:{name:'cancel'} }, \
                         OkBtn: Button { text: 'OK', properties:{name:'ok'} }, \
                              } \
                    }, \
}";
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
var dlg = new Window(ressource); //build dialog box
dlg.Valid.title.OkBtn.onClick=function(){ //VALID Button test
     resultBox=true;
     dlg.close();
return resultBox;
};
dlg.show(); // show dialogbox
if (resultBox){ // if press OK button
    if (dlg.MyPanelTemplates.title.varRoundedBC.value){
        myColor1 = "Red";
        addHPIWhite ('spotwhite', 50, 0, 0, 0);
        }
    if (dlg.MyPanelTemplates.title.varFlower.value){ 
        myColor2 = "Green";
        addHPIWhite ('spotwhite', 50, 0, 0, 0);
        }
    if (dlg.MyPanelTemplates.title.varHeart.value){ 
        myColor3 = "Blue";
        addHPIWhite ('spotwhite', 50, 0, 0, 0);
        }
}
}
function addHPIWhite(name, c, m, y, k) {  
try {  
    swatch = app.activeDocument.swatches[name]; // if swatch exists....  
    addSpot (name+='1', c, m, y, k); // ...add 1 to swatch name  
}  
catch (e) {  
    var newSpot = app.activeDocument.spots.add();  
    newSpot.name = name;  
    var newColor = new CMYKColor();  
    newColor.cyan = c;  
    newColor.magenta = m;  
    newColor.yellow = y;  
    newColor.black = k;  
    newSpot.colorType = ColorModel.SPOT;  
    newSpot.color = newColor;  
    var newSpotColor = new SpotColor();  
    newSpotColor.spot = newSpot;  
}  
}

Thank you for your help.

Hi, Yuliascript.

Here is a example replaced with check boxes.

dialogSelection ();
function dialogSelection () {
    var state = {},
        ressource = "dialog {\
            text: 'Standard Spot Colors', frameLocation: [100,100],\
            MyPanelTemplates: Panel {\
                orientation: 'column', alignChildren: ['left','Top'],\
                text: 'Please select Spot Color',\
                title: Group {\
                    orientation: 'column',\
                    red: Checkbox {alignment:'left', text: 'Red', value:true},\
                    green: Checkbox {alignment:'left', text: 'Green', value:false},\
                    blue: Checkbox {alignment:'left', text: 'Blue', value:false},\
                }\
            },\
            Valid: Panel {\
                orientation: 'column', alignChildren: ['left','Top'],\
                title: Group {\
                    CancelBtn: Button {text: 'Cancel', properties: {name:'cancel'}},\
                    OkBtn: Button {text: 'OK', properties: {name:'ok'}},\
                } \
            }, \
        }",
        dlg = new Window(ressource);
    if (dlg.show() === 1) { // OK button returns 1. Cancel button returns 2. 
        state.red = (dlg.MyPanelTemplates.title.red.value) ? 50 : 0;
        state.green = (dlg.MyPanelTemplates.title.green.value) ? 50 : 0;
        state.blue = (dlg.MyPanelTemplates.title.blue.value) ? 50 : 0;
        // write your function here.
        $.writeln('red: ' + state.red + ', green: ' + state.green + ', blue: ' + state.blue);
    }
}
