"doScript" scripts fail in AI 2022

I have an Illustrator Action Library I've been using since AI 2015.
Since upgrading from AI 2020 to 2022 I find any script calling these actions with "doScript" fail if run from VSCode. If I run the action directly in AI 2022 they work fine.

Does anyone know how I can alter the scripts to allow them to work in AI 2022?

Edit:
I've determined it is not the scripts themselves. The failure occurs when they are run from VSCode directly. Running them via Keyboard Maestro works fine.


Version info:
Version: 1.69.1

Will see about downgrading.

So I just ran the following script with v2.0.3:

 

 

app.doScript("Opacity 60 (selection)", "Default Actions");

 

 

and it appears to work... if there have been no errors in the ExtendScript engine (e.g. `main`) prior to running the script.

 

If there have been errors, Illustrator itself appears to go into an infinite loop (on macOS, at least) and must be Force Quit. Is this what you're referring to when you say that `doScript` doesn't work?

Yes. This is very repeatable for me in AI 2022.


@sberic, @erinferinferinf, @m1b, @Anubhav M,
By rolling back to ExtendScript Debugger v1.1.2 I am now able to debug "doScript" scripts without issue.
@sberic, I did post this issue on the "ExtendScript Debugger" comments page. Since it may ultimately be a "Ai 2022" bug I feel the ExtendScript Debugger team my have more access to the Ai Development team than I do. I will at least attempt to file a Bug report in the appropriate place (where ever that is).

 

Setup:
Mac Studio M1 Max

VSCode 1.69.2 (Universal running in Rosetta)

Illustrator CC 2022

 

Thanks,

Ray

Hi @rcraighead, what happens when you run the script from Illustrator?

It runs fine directly from Illustrator. Thanks @m1b

I'd be happy to test from my VSCode if you post a sample action and script.

    @Anubhav M , these are scripts I've been using for years. They still run fine directly in AI or from Keyboard Maestro. They just fail (and cause Ai to hang) if run from VSCode.

    FYI: I am running VSCode 1.69.1 and ExtendScript Debugger 2.0.3. I notice Debugger was updated 7/14. I wonder if that's the issue?

    ExtendScript Debugger 2.0.3 - 2022-07-14

     

    Edit:
    Confirmed: Downgraded ES Debugger to 2.02 and "doScript" method now works from VSCode!

    You can ask @sberic, the developer. The version we just released has some new notes on Illustrator peculiarities...
