Drop Down menu if condition

[MXKS]

I want to Select Black And its show Black in Dropdown menu, when i click dropdown menu its show red only---

Step 1:- I Select Black in Drop Down Menu

Step 2:- Alert:- You have selected Black

My If condition is not satisfied, How to put right condition of if 

var dlgMain = new Window("dialog","CCCCCCC", undefined, { closeButton:true} )
dlgMain.marginLeft = 15;
dlgMain.center();
dlgMain.orientation = "row";

var dropdown7_array = ["Black","Red","White","Blue","Green"];
var dropdown7 = dlgMain.add("dropdownlist", undefined, undefined, {name: "dropdown7", items: dropdown7_array});
dropdown7.selection = 0;

dlgMain.show();

if(dropdown7.selection==dropdown7.items);
{
alert("red");
}

[Kukurykus]

Over dlgMain.show(); put this code line:

dropdown7.onChange = function() {alert(this.selection)}

Ps. you may also remove your code from beyond dlgMain.show();

[MXKS]

Thanku so much It Worked...

But I Select Black , It's show me you have selected Black

var dlgMain = new Window("dialog","CCCCCCC", undefined, { closeButton:true} )
dlgMain.marginLeft = 15;
dlgMain.center();
dlgMain.orientation = "row";

var dropdown7_array = ["Black","Red","White","Blue","Green"];
var dropdown7 = dlgMain.add("dropdownlist", undefined, undefined, {name: "dropdown7", items: dropdown7_array});
dropdown7.selection = 0;

dropdown7.onChange=function()
{
if(this.selection=="Black")
{
alert("You have Selected Black");
}

if(this.selection=="Red")
{
alert("You have Selected Red");
}
}
dlgMain.show();
/* if(dropdown7.selection

[Kukurykus]

Step back to your original code and instead of code line from my previous post use this one:

dropdown7.onChange=function(){alert('You\'ve Selected '+this.selection.text)}

[MXKS]

You code is right but my question is not understand you have !

Step 1:- I Select Black :- 

var strokeColorB = new RGBColor();
strokeColorB.hexValue = '000000';

Step 2:- I Select White Again:-

var strokeColorW = new RGBColor();
strokeColorW.hexValue = 'ffffff';

I want to condition of if in dropdown menu

[Kukurykus · Accepted solution]

I extended my code of .text, so now you can use conditions to check chosen color name.

[MXKS]

Yes @Kukurykus  Right Answar @!

Thanku so much @Kukurykus 

[Kukurykus]

Alternatively you can play with:

sc = new SolidColor()
clrs = {0: '000000', 1: 'ff0000', 2: 'ffffff', 3: '0000ff', 4: '00ff00'}
dropdown7.onChange = function() {sc.hexValue = clrs[this.selection.index]}

[MXKS]

Wow @Kukurykus  You are great for knowledge !

[MXKS]

Can you modify the code :- 

                  var st = new RGBColor()
            st.hexValue = '000000';
clrs = {0: '000000', 1: 'ff0000', 2: '00ff30', 3: '0024ff', 4:'ff00f0',5:'fff600'}
dropdown4.onChange = function() 
{st.hexValue = clrs[this.selection.index]}

Getting a error !

[r-bin]

What's the error?

Can we see all the code?

[MXKS]

Getting a Error :- "Required Value is missing"

TextLayer("Photoshop");


                  var st = new RGBColor()
            st.hexValue = '000000';
clrs = {0: '000000', 1: 'ff0000', 2: '00ff30', 3: '0024ff', 4:'ff00f0',5:'fff600'}
dropdown4.onChange = function() 
{st.hexValue = clrs[this.selection.index]}
        

function TextLayer(text) {

        var layers = app.activeDocument.artLayers;
        var layer = layers.add();
        layer.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
        var textItem = layer.textItem;
        //textItem.kind = TextType.PARAGRAPHTEXT;
        textItem.size = 18;
        //textItem.position = [20, 500];
        myColor = new SolidColor
        myColor.rgb.red = 255
        myColor.rgb.green = 0
        myColor.rgb.blue = 0
        textItem.color=st;
        textItem.contents = text;
       // textItem.width = new UnitValue(" 100 pixels");
        //textItem.height = new UnitValue("30 pixels");
}

[r-bin]

This is not all the code. For example, where is dropdown4 specified?

Also textItem.color is SolidColor. You are trying to set it to the value of the "st" variable, which is an RGBColor object.

 I want to change the Text Color in Dropdown menu

[r-bin]

The st variable must be declared before calling dialog.show().

You also need to use st.rgb, not just st

var dialog = new Window("dialog"); 
    dialog.text = "NNNNNN"; 
    dialog.orientation = "column"; 
    dialog.alignChildren = ["center","top"]; 
    dialog.spacing = 10; 
    dialog.margins = 16; 

var dropdown1_array = ["Black","Pink","Blue","Red"]; 
var dropdown4 = dialog.add("dropdownlist", undefined, undefined, {name: "dropdown4", items: dropdown1_array}); 
    dropdown4.selection = 0; 

var st = new SolidColor
st.rgb.hexValue = '000000';
clrs = {0: '000000', 1: 'ff0000', 2: '00ff30', 3: '0024ff', 4:'ff00f0',5:'fff600'}
dropdown4.onChange = function() 
{st.rgb.hexValue = clrs[this.selection.index]}
        

dialog.show();

TextLayer("Photoshop");

function TextLayer(text) {

        var layers = app.activeDocument.artLayers;
        var layer = layers.add();
        layer.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
        var textItem = layer.textItem;
        //textItem.kind = TextType.PARAGRAPHTEXT;
        textItem.size = 18;
        //textItem.position = [20, 500];
        textItem.color=st;
        textItem.contents = text;
       // textItem.width = new UnitValue(" 100 pixels");
        //textItem.height = new UnitValue("30 pixels");
}

Yes i have used st.rgb But getting "internal error"

var dialog =new Window("dialog"); 
    dialog.text = "NNNNNN"; 
    dialog.orientation = "column"; 
    dialog.alignChildren = ["center","top"]; 
    dialog.spacing = 10; 
    dialog.margins = 16; 

var dropdown4_array = ["Black","Pink","Blue","Red"]; 
var dropdown4 = dialog.add("dropdownlist", undefined, undefined, {name: "dropdown4", items: dropdown4_array}); 
    dropdown4.selection = 0; 

var st = new SolidColor
st.rgb.hexValue = '000000';
clrs = {0: '000000', 1: 'ff0000', 2: '00ff30', 3: '0024ff', 4:'ff00f0',5:'fff600'}
dropdown4.onChange = function() 
{st.rgb.hexValue = clrs[this.selection.index]}
        

dialog.show();

TextLayer("Photoshop");

function TextLayer(text) {

        var layers = app.activeDocument.artLayers;
        var layer = layers.add();
        layer.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
        var textItem = layer.textItem;
        //textItem.kind = TextType.PARAGRAPHTEXT;
        textItem.size = 18;
        //textItem.position = [20, 500];
        textItem.color=st.rgb;
        textItem.contents = text;
       // textItem.width = new UnitValue(" 100 pixels");
        //textItem.height = new UnitValue("30 pixels");
}

I gave a working code above. Compare it to yours.

[MXKS]

I have compared with your code All are right but getting a error, Please check it what is problem ?

var dialog =new Window("dialog"); 
    dialog.text = "NNNNNN"; 
    dialog.orientation = "column"; 
    dialog.alignChildren = ["center","top"]; 
    dialog.spacing = 10; 
    dialog.margins = 16; 

var dropdown4_array = ["Black","Pink","Blue","Red"]; 
var dropdown4 = dialog.add("dropdownlist", undefined, undefined, {name: "dropdown4", items: dropdown4_array}); 
    dropdown4.selection = 0; 

var st = new SolidColor()
st.hexValue = '000000';
clrs = {0: '000000', 1: 'ff0000', 2: '00ff30', 3: '0024ff', 4:'ff00f0',5:'fff600'}
dropdown4.onChange = function()

By @MXKS

Find three differences

[MXKS]

Yes, Correct it but same issue 

[r-bin]

Does my code work for you without errors? Show your code again, which gives the error.

Check it ,I'm tired to resolve the error !

This is not my code. My code is here Drop Down menu if condition

P.S. I'm sick of

[MXKS]

Ok @r-bin  Thanku so much , Code is worked fine
