Preguntas sobre desarrollo de un plugin: Abrir un panel específico y guardar archivos ExtendScript

[daniel3146053626g7]

Greetings to all,

I am currently in the process of developing a plugin with the aim of optimizing several processes, but I have encountered some unknowns for which I have not yet found a solution. I was wondering if someone could help me with these questions:

1) Is there a way to open a specific panel (like effects or text) from my plugin?

2) Also, I would like to know if it is possible to save a file (in audio format) that is returned by an API call from ExtendScript, in the file explorer.

3) And lastly, how can I take an audio track and convert it to some type of audio file (like WAV or MP3) from ExtendScript?

I greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions you can provide. Thank you in advance for your help!

I think you're developing a CEP panel, not a C++ plug-in; let me know if I have that right. 

1) No, but a panel can apply a Workspace, which has a specific set of panels open. 

2) It sounds like you'd like to render part of a sequence, to an audio output format.  I recommend basing your render on PProPanel's example code, and specifying an audio-only output preset (.epr file).

3) You specify 'track'; is your question about how to render a specific audio track, from within a sequence? For safety's sake, I'd recommend cloning the source sequence, disabling tracks you don't want in the output, specify a sequence in and out point, then (as above) render to an audio-only output preset. [I'd also recommend deleting the clone sequence afterward.]
