I think this works but it seems to vary a bit regarding being the full size of inside the margins
You should be able to eliminate the unit conversion code (and variations) by setting the scripting units to points, and the margin variable, just after your doc variable, and reset at the end:
// Define a function for your script
function myScript() {
// Create a dialog box
var dialog = app.dialogs.add({
name: "Body Text Size",
canCancel: true
});
// Add a dialog column
var dialogColumn = dialog.dialogColumns.add();
// Add a static text field
var staticText = dialogColumn.staticTexts.add({
staticLabel: "Enter the body text size in points:"
});
// Add an editbox for user input
var editbox = dialogColumn.textEditboxes.add({
minWidth: 100
});
// Add a static text field for preset ratios
var presetRatiosText = dialogColumn.staticTexts.add({
staticLabel: "Preset Ratios (Select One):"
});
// Add a dropdown with the specified names and scale factors, including "None"
var dropdown = dialogColumn.dropdowns.add({
stringList: ["None", "1.067 - Minor Second", "1.125 - Major Second", "1.200 - Minor Third", "1.250 - Major Third", "1.333 - Perfect Fourth", "1.414 - Augmented Fourth", "1.500 - Perfect Fifth", "1.618 - Golden Ratio"]
});
// Set "None" as the default selection
dropdown.selectedIndex = 0;
// Add a static text field for custom scale factor
var customScaleFactorText = dialogColumn.staticTexts.add({
staticLabel: "OR Enter a Custom Scale Factor:"
});
// Add an editbox for custom scale factor input
var customScaleFactorEditbox = dialogColumn.textEditboxes.add({
minWidth: 100
});
// Show the dialog box
if (dialog.show() == true) {
// Get the user's input from the dropdown
var selectedOption = dropdown.selectedIndex;
// Get the user's input from the custom scale factor editbox
var customScaleFactor = parseFloat(customScaleFactorEditbox.editContents);
// Get the body text size input
var bodyTextSize = parseFloat(editbox.editContents);
// Check if both preset and custom scale factors are entered
if (selectedOption !== 0 && !isNaN(customScaleFactor)) {
alert("Please pick either a preset ratio or enter a custom scale factor, not both.");
dialog.destroy();
return;
}
// Define an array of scale factors corresponding to the dropdown options
var scaleFactors = [null, 1.067, 1.125, 1.200, 1.250, 1.333, 1.414, 1.500, 1.618]; // Use null for "None"
