Palette display error

Report · Aug 29, 2020

I added a palette to a script to perform a task that took too long, but the palette display behaves strangely, displays a white background and does not display the elements of the palette. Has anyone had this same problem?

Hi r-bin thanks for the support.
Unfortunately the opacity of the palette elements is below 70% when executed inside the function b1.onClick = function () {....} in my script:

When the palette is executed outside of any function, the opacity of the palette elements is shown correctly. Man is this a bug?

p = new Window("palette"); p.text = "Processando!";
p.preferredSize.width = 80; p.preferredSize.height = 100; p.spacing = 0; p.margins = 10;
ic = p.add("statictext", undefined, undefined, {name: "ic"}); ic.text = "icon"; ic.justify = "center";
ic.graphics.font = ScriptUI.newFont("arial",60);ic.text = "K"; ic.justify = "center";
t1 = p.add("statictext", undefined, undefined, {name: "t1"});
t1.text = "PROCESSANDO...";
p.show(); refresh(); $.sleep(5000);

p.show(); p.active = true; refresh(); $.sleep(5000);

Working with palettes is very buggy, especially in the latest photoshops. There are even more problems on MAC.

Try converting the script dialog box to a message box by removing (or hiding) unnecessary elements, resizing and adding the desired text string.
