This is trivial, but it bothers me ...

If I click on an item, there is a gray dotted border around the selected item. See Selection 3 in the image attached.

How can I eliminate this.

I tried
Ckbx_Note3 = Panel01.add("checkbox", [10, 5, 300, 20], " Selection 3","borderless: true"); and it didn't work.

Uploads don't seem to be working for me.

I don't see this problem in Windows 10. Maybe it's something to do with Windows 11.

@Peter Kahrel - Interesting. I don't remember seeing it before but I was working on a new script and I see it in my older scripts also. I think at the time I was just excited that the scripts that I wrote worked.

I opened FrameMaker 15 in Windows Server 2012 (which is based on Windows 😎 and I see it there. I also opened FrameMaker 17 in Windows 11 and I see it there also.

Does it happen if you run it from another Adobe app—Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator?

Could this be the focus highlight as of accessability?

E.g. when you use the tab or alt+tab key, would it wander around?

You could either fight it from that side, or maybe add some padding, margins or whatever the appropriate mechanism to give the actual widget more room.

A quick Google search hints to "Settings > System > Focus assist", I did not try whether it applies.

I don't think so: https://www.elevenforum.com/t/turn-on-or-off-focus-assist-in-windows-11.1351/ - however, I did notice that if I press Tab, it goes to the next checkbox.

I also searched @Peter Kahrel 's excellent guide for Script UI for things like "Selection", "Border", "Focus", but I could have easily missed it.

Not working for me. I tried copying to the clipboard and pasting - nothing happened. I tried clicking insert Picture and it said there was an error uploading the file. I tried adding the .jpg as an attachment and it said "Uploading" but it never finished.

As a last resort, you can upload your screenshot somewhere and post a link to the screenshot.
