How does one make a Scriptui dialog or palette resizeable?

[rechmbrs]

I would like to make a Scriptui window user resizeable.  I've tried by adding ,{resizeable: true} into the new window line as well as trying dialog.resizeable = true;

See my attempts:

// DIALOG
// ======
var dialog = new Window("dialog"); // , {resizeable:true}
dialog.text = "TABS test";
dialog.orientation = "column";
dialog.alignChildren = ["center", "top"];
dialog.spacing = 0;
dialog.margins = 2;
dialog.resizeable = true;

// TPANEL1
// =======
var tpanel1 = dialog.add("tabbedpanel", undefined, undefined, { name: "tpanel1" });
tpanel1.alignChildren = "fill";
tpanel1.preferredSize.width = 240;
tpanel1.spacing = 10;
tpanel1.margins = 0;

// TAB1
// ====
var tab1 = tpanel1.add("tab", undefined, undefined, { name: "tab1" });
tab1.text = "Tab1";
tab1.orientation = "row";
tab1.alignChildren = ["left", "top"];
tab1.spacing = 0;
tab1.margins = 0;

var button1 = tab1.add("button", undefined, undefined, { name: "button1" });
button1.text = "Button1";

var button2 = tab1.add("button", undefined, undefined, { name: "button2" });
button2.text = "Button2";

// TAB2
// ====
var tab2 = tpanel1.add("tab", undefined, undefined, { name: "tab2" });
tab2.text = "Tab2";
tab2.orientation = "column";
tab2.alignChildren = ["left", "top"];
tab2.spacing = 0;
tab2.margins = 0;

var button3 = tab2.add("button", undefined, undefined, { name: "button3" });
button3.text = "Button3";

var button4 = tab2.add("button", undefined, undefined, { name: "button4" });
button4.text = "Button4";

// TPANEL1
// =======
tpanel1.selection = tab1;

dialog.show();

I don't see the little dotted triangle at the lower right corner as one does in windows 10.

r-bin,

I don't know what I don't understand.  That's the problem I have and asking dumb questions is how I find what I don't understand.

I just realized that the file format stuff is handled by the image or iconbutton calls in scriptui and I shouldn't be concerned in the image to text script.   I am testing my script with your String.fromCharCode lines and will put out for others.

I really appreciate your patience as I'm not a programmer but just someone trying to make things easier for some users.

You found something like 'editnumber' that belongs to scriptui?

[r-bin]

>>>You found something like 'editnumber' that belongs to scriptui?

Yes, this is a new kind of "edittext"

[Kukurykus]

Yes, that's something new. In ESTK (that remembers first CC release) it doesn't work too, but in CC 2019 it already does. Last question, how and where you found it since I never heard of it?

[rechmbrs]

K,

Who is this post for?

K,

Is editnumber available for us users?  How's it differ from edittext?

RONC

[r-bin]

what?

look at ContactSheetII.jsx or Image Processor.jsx

[rechmbrs]

r-bin,

Thanks.  Just found "editnumber" in Image Processor.

I tried to find where's something mentioned about EditNumber and found scriptis.xml at end of 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Scripting Dictionaries CC\CommonFiles' is not updated of yet.

[Kukurykus]

Maybe metadata affected how file is read.

editnumber reflection properties:

(I stuck it in a tabbed palette just for this)

this property value is 1
this property minvalue is 1
this property maxvalue is 12
this property textselection is

this property justify is left
this property text is 1
this property graphics is [object ScriptUIGraphics]

this property __proto__ is [object Object]

------------------------

DNGPanel.ed_1 = DNGPanel.add('editnumber', undefined, undefined, 1, 12);

var props = DNGPanel.ed_1.reflect.properties;
for (var i = 0; i < props.length; i++) {
$.writeln('this property ' + props[i].name + ' is ' + DNGPanel.ed_1[props[i].name]);
}

call arguments and creating props

d.b2  = add('editnumber', undefined, 1.1234567890123456, -100, 100, {numberFormat:"integer"});

d.b2  = add('editnumber', undefined, 1.1234567890123456, min_value, max_value, {decimalDigits:8});

[Lumigraphics]

a.ed = add('editnumber', bounds, value, min_value, max_value);

this control can also contain a string

a.ed.text = 'test';

I've always used an editext control but I guess this has a bit of built-in input validation.

try to type in control

2*(5+10)+4^2

Guys,

I have a problem with "editnumber" in that ESTK says 'editnumber' is unknown or invalid in context.  This is the statement  d.b2 = add('editnumber', undefined, 1.1234567890123456, -100, 100, {numberFormat:"integer"});  that I borrowed and placed in the tab example.

My ESTK version is 4.0.0.1  scriptui 6.2.2  and extendscript 4.5.5.    Are there later releases?

Read my post that's 13 posts over yours. There you'll find the answer 😉

[Lumigraphics]

The third constructor property is initial value. You can't have an integer with decimal places.

d.b2 = add('editnumber', undefined, 0, -100, 100, {numberFormat:"integer"});

In Photoshop I get 46!!!   Toolkit I can't make it run.

[rechmbrs]

I get 46 but only after clicking on the button b1 above it.  Interesting behavior.

You can do something easier:

EditNumber.reflect.properties

[rechmbrs]

My CALC script does this with "edittext" and the = sign key on the calculator .   I use eval to solve the equation resident in the editext.text field.  First had it working a long time ago in html + js version.
