vertical scrollbar does not work in a nested dialog

[withoutdix]

In Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 Win 7 and Mac OS X 10.8

function dropdown2(win_location, win_width, h50, list2) {
    var ww = new Window ("dialog");
    var g = ww.add ("group");
    var panel = g.add("panel", [0, 0, 300, 200]);
    var sbar = g.add ("scrollbar", [0, 0, 20, 200]);
    ww.show();
}

var w = new Window ("dialog");
w.add("button", undefined, "asdads").onClick = function () {
  dropdown2([200, 200], 200, 50, ["asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf" ]); };
w.show();

what's not working? what are you trying to do?

[withoutdix]

bar in scrollbar does not moved/selected in a nested dialog (in the code from the first post)

in main dialog work well

dropdown2([200, 200], 200, 50, ["asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf" ]);

IMHO bug.

May need to know about this bug to developers?

the scrollbar does move, the script works ok, exactly the way you have scripted it...can you explain in more detail what you're trying to do?

function dropdown2(win_location, win_width, h50, list2) {
    var ww = new Window ("dialog");
    var g = ww.add ("group");
    var panel = g.add("panel", [0, 0, 300, 200]);
    var sbar = g.add ("scrollbar", [0, 0, 20, 200], list2);
    ww.show();
}


dropdown2([200, 200], 200, 50, ["asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf" ]);

var w = new Window ("dialog");
w.add("button", undefined, "asdads").onClick = function () {
  dropdown2([200, 200], 200, 50, ["asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf" ]); };
w.show();

Illustrator CC 2014

Ctrl+F12

first scrollbar its ok

press button

scrollbar arrows -> gray

[CarlosCanto]

ok, this is a different script...I can't reproduce your problem with CS5, it may be a bug.

[withoutdix]

Yes, it was well to CS5, CS6

No idea why that was the case, but setting enabled = true seems to do the trick.

    function dropdown2(win_location, win_width, h50, list2) {  
        var ww = new Window ("dialog");  
        var g = ww.add ("group");  
        var panel = g.add("panel", [0, 0, 300, 200]);
        var dd = panel.add('dropdownlist',[4, 4, 290, 20],list2);
        var sbar = g.add ("scrollbar", [0, 0, 20, 200]);
        sbar.enabled=true;
        ww.show();
    }  

    var w = new Window ("dialog");  
    w.add("button", undefined, "asdads").onClick = function () {  
        dropdown2([200, 200], 200, 50, ["asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf", "asdaf" ]);
    };  
    w.show();

thank you
so easy
I did not think
and created the scroll buttons instead of scrollbars
