@meriware    I know its old. But... Why not use Photoshop in this case. Since you said you use normalized images. You could do a batch on the folders. Simply pick the color add it to an swatch Folder and possibly save it as aco file or something else.  But i guess you already did the work creating the CSV file. That must have been tons of work! ...

I mailed him/her   Well it seems, at least i think, it can not read pantone colors, even though they are basical stored as LAB values. If i make a PMS color with its lab values according to a color book file, it works. But a swatch file which has a pms color from a color book returns the error. Hope he chime in ... View more

@c.pfaffenbichler    Could it be that due to the addition of being able to add folders and sub-folders now in the swatches. The original code tp read binary *.aco files does work properly?

@c.pfaffenbichler  I know its an old thread, but i was trying some of the code you pasted. I believe it contains errors. its asks for        ColorSwatches.getColor       But since no color is added, it simply return undefined, its declared as a list, when _runtime starts. At least, thats how i think its working.  Unless          self.colorsByName = {};       gets filed by some other script which is then missing  I only see      self.colorsByName      being used, when a color is added by      ColorSwatches.prototype.addColor     EDIT Nevermind it does work, after checking, i was requesting wrong name. Thats why it returns undefined. Im going to add a catch for that. But it doesnt seem to like LAB or PMS colors. REturn work colortype.;  ColorSwatches.LAB_TYPE are defined as index numbers, INT n umber. But Pantone names return 4 digit number?. Kinda weird ... View more

@Stephen Marsh  Indeed, shows how it works, what it does. Great work. He also completely replicated the original version   @jazz-y  Very interesting method of using Localize, i used a different method where i can all the languages i want.   Here's an example of how use an other method // Localized history outputs // PS version alert locPhotoshopversionAlert = { en: "Photoshop versions before CS2 are not supported!", fr: "Les versions de Photoshop avant CS2 ne sont pas prises en charge!", nl: "Photoshop-versies v\u00F3\u00F3r CS2 worden niet ondersteund!", ch: "不支持 CS2 之前的 Photoshop 版本" }; var PSalertStr = localize(locPhotoshopversionAlert);   I used this for an extension called AnimDessign2 which i upgraded with all kinda of extra funcitonality.

Its also not defaulting because i believe, the descriptor stores the last setting.

You can actually open another panel using a button. There is no close panel function though   function openGuides() { var ext = "com.sbaril.animdessin2.Guides"; csInterface.requestOpenExtension(ext, ""); }   Where Guides is another panel in the same CEP extension. you also actually open panel from other CEP extension this is the guides panel in the manifest.xml <Extension Id="com.sbaril.animdessin2.Guides"> <DispatchInfo > <Resources> <MainPath>./toolsguide.html</MainPath> <CEFCommandLine> <Parameter>--persist-session-cookies</Parameter> </CEFCommandLine> </Resources> <Lifecycle> <AutoVisible>true</AutoVisible> </Lifecycle> <UI> <Type>Panel</Type> <Menu>%PNL_Title_ToolGuide</Menu> <Geometry> <Size> <Height>800</Height> <Width>320</Width> </Size> <MinSize> <Height>500</Height> <Width>320</Width> </MinSize> <MaxSize> <Height>1920</Height> <Width>1080</Width> </MaxSize> </Geometry> <Icons> <Icon Type="Normal">./icons/iconNormal.png</Icon> <Icon Type="RollOver">./icons/iconRollover.png</Icon> <Icon Type="Disabled">./icons/iconDisabled.png</Icon> <Icon Type="DarkNormal">./icons/iconDarkNormal.png</Icon> <Icon Type="DarkRollOver">./icons/iconDarkRollover.png</Icon> </Icons> </UI> </DispatchInfo> </Extension>   Here you see an example.

I answer, so others can see it as well. But the same code works just fine. How ever, the parameter you can feed into the colorPicker function seems different. Where in Photoshop app.showColorPicker(true) will set the forgroundColor on return and also inputs that color so it doesnt start at black. In illustrator this works different, but the picker still shows   var storedDigitalColor = new RGBColor(); exportInfo.options.customDigitalColor = "128-128-128" digitalColor = exportInfo.options.customDigitalColor.split('-'); storedDigitalColor.red = digitalColor[0]; storedDigitalColor.green = digitalColor[1]; storedDigitalColor.blue = digitalColor[2]; completedDigital = app.showColorPicker(storedDigitalColor);   This example is from setting the color from a stored JSON file. Ive used this for a custom dialog. Also what is different, in photoshop when you assign a variable to the showColorPicker. It returns a Boolean. Where in Illustrator it return a colorObject ...

I did not try that. I believe the calculations in general cause this. It rounds to 2 decimal numbers. Which in this case, causes the mismatch. With a 3 decimal number, it's almost perfect match ... View more

There is however a mismatch, probably due to rounding of numbers which illustrator does. If you also do the last one, so it should overlap the first one. In outline mode we see a mismatch. small gap, meaning a mismatch         I found this by using a different method.  I tried a method using the "Pie" slicing options. I noticed this showed a mismatch end, a gap so to speak. Then tried this method and again, same mismatch and a gap again same gap, using pie slice options   I used the same number; 6.92deg I even tried 360/52 to make sure it was exactly the same Pie slice settings                           All nice and dandy that illustrator says it can do math, but its not reliable. See what a calculator comes to with same 360/52 Issue with illustrators math and rounding of numbers                   Issue is kinda fixed by using a float of 3. so paste in this number. Illustrator again rounds it, but now to 3 decimal. 6.923 gives much better result No visible hole at regular zoom   ... View more
