Enable/disable contextual taskbar in Illustrator via ExtendScript

[sttk3]

Found a way to enable/disable contextual taskbar in Illustrator via ExtendScript. It is possible from Illustrator 2024(28). Just wanted to share.

var key = 'ContextualTaskBarEnabled' ;
var pref = app.preferences ;

// enable
pref.setBooleanPreference(key, true) ;

// disable
pref.setBooleanPreference(key, false) ;

// toggle
pref.setBooleanPreference(key, !pref.getBooleanPreference(key)) ;
