This menu item can be created by either a plugin or a startup script. First step would be to identify which of these is that.

• Did you install any plugin recently, try removing that and see if it removed this menu
• Check the same for any scripts that you might have installed, check the startup scripts folder look the attached screenshot and see if the said folder has any script present, if it has try remove that and see if the menu disappears
• Also after doing the above two steps, try trashing the InDesign preferences http://www.tech4pub.com/2012/10/10/indesign-tip-reset-preferences-to-improve-performance/

Let me know how it goes.

So you mean to say you don't have any new plugin installed neither any startup script is installed? And you also trashed the InDesign preferences?

Lets verify it, could you please post a screenshot of the following

• The contents Plug-In folder of InDesign.
• The contents of the startup scripts folder
• Also a screenshot of Window>Extensions menu in InDesign. I suppose a CEP extension can also add menu entries(not quite sure though, but never harms to check)

Hi Sabari,

did you perhaps tinker with ExtendScript's menuItems.add() method?

And now you do not know a way to remove the item?

What scripts did you test?

What's the exact name of the menu?

I can see that it is a submenu of menu main.

FWIW: There is also the method remove() for submenus.

I'd try something like the code below:

var subMenuToRemove = app.menus[0].submenus.itemByName("New Menu");
if( subMenuToRemove.isValid ){ subMenuToRemove.remove() };

If something goes wrong I'd suggest you uninstall and reinstall InDesign.

Hi Uwe,

I never had to add in the remove code explicitly. Once the script adding the menu was removed, the menu vanished after trashing the preferences. Is there some use cases where the menu gets stuck even after script removal?

Thanks

Hi Sabari,

if the menu comes back after restarting there is either an installed plugin or a startup script that is causing this.

Uninstall InDesign, clean all preferences and caches. Reinstall.

My sample Coding:

myDoc=app.documents[0];

x=myDoc.paragraphStyles.length;

for(i=2;i<x;i++){

myParaStyle=myDoc.paragraphStyles.item(i);

if(myPstyle.pointSize>10|| myPstyle.justification==unjustifiaction){

}

}

alert("completed")

How to find unjustify lines throughout the document.

For Example:Style- (Text_Ind & Left Justify)

I had tried sample coding, but not works properly.

I had attached sample screen shot.

Do you have any other sample scripts.

Please Advise me
