Hi,
I am developing a photoshop plugin using CS3 SDK. I am using ADM to create dialogs. Developing ADM Modeless dialog is not possible in CS3 SDK.
Can any one please tell me whether it is possible in CS5 SDK to create Modeless dialog. ( So that user of my plugin will be free to use photoshop even after invocation of DialogBox. )
If Modeless dialogs are not possible in photoshop using ADM,..... Is ther any other way to create modeless dialogs in photoshop ??
Regards,

This question might be better asked in the Photoshop SDK forum, ADM is not used in scripting.
You can create a modeless dialog( panel ) using the Photoshop Panel SDK which has a javascript backend. Panels can also be created by the new CS SDK which uses actionscript.

ADM isn't even used in the SDK anymore -- we deprecated that P.O.S. a while back.

You can't do a modeless dialog anyway -- the plugin SDK only allows for modal dialogs.
The closest you could come is a Flash based panel.

Or a Flash based Modeless Window. No?

ADM Modeless dialog is not supported in Photoshop in any version.
Your only option to make a panel / palette in Photoshop is to use the CS SDK (CS5) or the "Photoshop Panel Developer's Guide" ( CS4 or CS5 ).

Yes. My point was that you can use the CS SDK to create a modeless dialog.
