Porting a Creative Suite flashbuilder 4.5 plugin to InDesign CC

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 25 Nov 2013 15:31:53 GMT

Hello

Im not sure im in the right forum for this question.

This might also be a really stupid question, but im going to ask it anyway.

I would like to port a Create suite plugin for InDesign CS5, CS5.5 and CS6 built in Flashbuilder 4.5 to Indesign CC.

Can I have flash based palettes in Extension build 3, and Eclipse? Or do I need to convert every palette and dialog to HTML 5?

I have imported my previous project in Eclipse, but it will not compile or build.

Best regards

No Keyboard input focus in OWLFlashPlayerWidget

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 21 Nov 2013 10:48:52 GMT

Hello

I have built my preferences as a FlashPlayerPanel. My flash components loads properly, but I fan seem to get keyboard input foucus. Im able to place the cursor in a text filed, but the input focus seems to be on the list instread of my Flash panel.

If I place the cursor in a text field and type in a ’g’, the preferences activates the General preferences in the list.

Is this a bug or do I need to set the Keyboard focus myselt?

I tried this code in the Controller but it does not seem to work:

void FlexSettingsDlgController::InitializeDialogFields(IActiveContext *ac)

{

CDialogController::InitializeDialogFields(ac);

do {

InterfacePtr<IPanelControlData> iPanelControlData(this, IID_IPANELCONTROLDATA);

if (iPanelControlData == nil)

break;

IControlView* flashWidgetView = iPanelControlData->FindWidget( kSettingsFlashPlayerWidgetID );

if (flashWidgetView)

iPanelControlData->SetKeyboardFocus(flashWidgetView);

iPanelControlData->SetKeyboardFocus(kSettingsFlashPlayerWidgetID);

} while(kFalse);

}

// declaration of my preferences panel

resource CstPrfGeneralPanel (kGeneralSettingsPanelResourceID + index_enUS)

{

__FILE__, __LINE__,

kCMGeneralPrfPanelWidgetID, // kCMImageLinePrfPanelWidgetID, // WidgetId

(

kSettingsFlashPlayerWidgetID,

Problem compiling release version in Flash Builder 4 with extendedDesktop

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 09 Dec 2010 07:15:33 GMT

Hello

Im trying to build a air application that has NativeProcess support. In order to do so I have to enable <supportedProfiles>extendedDesktop</supportedProfiles> in the -app.xml.

But when I try to compile a relese version I get the following error:

Error creating AIR file: Error 306, Descriptor must support the profile desktop, mobileDevice or extendedMobiledevice.

If I change to <supportedProfiles>extendedDesktop desktop</supportedProfiles>, the I have no trouble compiling the application, but when I try to run it, NativeProcesses are not suppoted.

How can i fix this problem??

Im using Flash Builder 4.0.1,Mac OS X 10.5.8.

RunScript in CS5 and CS4? How do I set up RunScriptParams

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 15 Nov 2010 11:30:38 GMT

Hello

In SC3, I was able to run javascripts in Indesign using the following code:

// add my arguments

Utils<IScriptArgs>()->Save(); // create new script-args context on the stack
 for(int32 i=0; i < paramN.size(); i ++) {
 Utils<IScriptArgs>()->Set(paramN[i], paramV[i]);

 }

 // Get a handle on the ExtendScript Manager
 InterfacePtr<IScriptManager> scriptManager(Utils<IScriptUtils>()->QueryScriptManager(kJavaScriptMgrBoss));
 if (!scriptManager)
 break;

 InterfacePtr<IScriptRunner> scriptRunner(scriptManager, UseDefaultIID());
 if (! scriptRunner)
 break;

 scriptRunner->RunScript(scriptStr2);

In CS5, this fails:

InterfacePtr<IScriptRunner> scriptRunner(scriptManager, UseDefaultIID());
 if (! scriptRunner)
 break;

I have solved the problem by writing the script to a file and using:

InterfacePtr<IScriptRunner> scriptRunner( Utils<IScriptUtils>()->QueryScriptRunner(IDFile(pathToFile));

It works, but I do not want to have to write the script down to file before executing it.
Is there a way around this?

Using XMP Lib in a plugin for CS5.0 Windows

Norwegian charcters Unicode problem, InDesign CS5, Windows 7 64 bit

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 09:20:06 GMT

Hello

I have a problem with moving files from within an indesign plugin. I try to move an image file to the same folder as the inDesign document.

The problem is that the document folder contains norweigian characters. The folder name is: Boligdrøm_FW. If the folder is renamed to: Boligdrom_FW, it works without a problem.

The customer is using InD CS5, Windows 7, 64 bit. Im using Windows 7, 32 bit system, I can not reproduce the problem.

Has anyone encountered this problem?

Does anyone have a quick solutions?

Best regards

/ Pontus

Im using the folowing code to copy the file:

res = MoveFile((LPCWSTR)newFilepath.GrabWString(), (LPCWSTR)documentPath.GrabWString());

Im using this code to get the path to the document:

IDataBase* db = ::GetDataBase(doc);

if (db) {

const IDFile *dbSysFile = db->GetSysFile();

if (dbSysFile) {

PMString documentPath("");

SDKUtilities::GetPathName(*dbSysFile,documentPath);

IDFile f(documentPath);

documentPath.Truncate(f.GetFileName().NumUTF16TextChars());

Add eventlistener to catch after save document event?

How do I change object layer options and select visible psd layers for an image?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 18 May 2011 08:19:21 GMT

Hello

I have a plugin that replaces images in an indeisgn document. When a user has selected to show one object layer in a psd but not another layer, Indesign looses this information when I replace the old image.

I can store the layers that are visisble before I replace the image, but I have not been able to change the visibility of tha layers back in a correct way.

When the image is replaced, all the layers becomes visible, but if I open the "Object layers options" dialog, only the layers I want to be visible is marked as visible in the list. What I see in the dialog does not correspond with what is shown on the screen.

I use the folowing code to store info about the visible layers:

K2Vector<int32> PnlTrvUtils::GetGraphicLayer(UIDRef imageRef) {

 ErrorCode result;
 K2Vector<int32> visibleLayers;

 InterfacePtr<IGraphicLayerInfo> iGraphicLayerInfo(imageRef,IID_IGRAPHICLAYERINFO);
 if ( iGraphicLayerInfo != 0 ) {
 if ( ! iGraphicLayerInfo->GetIsInitialized() ) {
 InterfacePtr<ICommand> iInitializeGraphicLayersCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand( kInitializeGraphicLayersCmdBoss ));
 if ( ! iInitializeGraphicLayersCmd ) {
 result = kFailure;
 } else {
 iInitializeGraphicLayersCmd->SetItemList( UIDList( imageRef ));
 result = CmdUtils::ProcessCommand( iInitializeGraphicLayersCmd );
 if ( result == kSuccess )
 if ( ! iGraphicLayerInfo->GetIsInitialized() )
 result = kFailure;
 }
 }
 int32 i;
 int32 iLayerCount = iGraphicLayerInfo->GetNumberLayers();
 for ( i = 0; i < iLayerCount; i++ ) {
 if (IGraphicLayerInfo::kVisibilityShowing ==iGraphicLayerInfo->GetNthLayerCurrentVisibility(i)) {
 // CAlert::ErrorAlert("visible");
 visibleLayers.push_back(i);
 }
 }
 }
 return visibleLayers;
}

And I use the folowing code to select the layers I want to be visisble:

void PnlTrvUtils::SetVisibleGraphicLayer(UIDRef imageRef, K2Vector<int32> visibleLayers) {

 ErrorCode result;
 InterfacePtr<IGraphicLayerInfo> iGraphicLayerInfo(imageRef,IID_IGRAPHICLAYERINFO);
 if ( iGraphicLayerInfo != 0 ) {
 if ( ! iGraphicLayerInfo->GetIsInitialized() ) {
 InterfacePtr<ICommand> iInitializeGraphicLayersCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand( kInitializeGraphicLayersCmdBoss ));
 if ( ! iInitializeGraphicLayersCmd ) {
 result = kFailure;
 } else {
 iInitializeGraphicLayersCmd->SetItemList( UIDList( imageRef ));
 result = CmdUtils::ProcessCommand( iInitializeGraphicLayersCmd );
 if ( result == kSuccess )
 if ( ! iGraphicLayerInfo->GetIsInitialized() )
 result = kFailure;
 }
 }

InterfacePtr<ICommand> setLayerCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(kSetGraphicLayerInfoCmdBoss));
 if (setLayerCmd) {
 setLayerCmd->SetItemList(UIDList(imageRef));
 InterfacePtr<IGraphicLayerInfo> setLayerCmdLayerInfo(setLayerCmd, UseDefaultIID());

 // copy over the new settings
 setLayerCmdLayerInfo->Copy(iGraphicLayerInfo);

 int32 i;
 InterfacePtr<IGraphicLayerInfo> resetLayerInfo(setLayerCmdLayerInfo,IID_IGRAPHICLAYERINFO);
 if (resetLayerInfo) {
 int32 iLayerCount = resetLayerInfo->GetNumberLayers();

 for ( i = 0; i < iLayerCount; i++ ) {
 bool16 visible = false;
 for(int32 j = 0; j < visibleLayers.size(); j ++) {
 if (i == visibleLayers[j]) {
 visible = true;
 }
 }
 if (visible) {
 resetLayerInfo->SetNthLayerCurrentVisibility(i, IGraphicLayerInfo::kVisibilityShowing);
 } else {
 resetLayerInfo->SetNthLayerCurrentVisibility(i, IGraphicLayerInfo::kVisibilityHidden);
 }
 }

 // clear out the flag
 int32 currFlags = static_cast<int32>(setLayerCmdLayerInfo->GetGraphicLayerFlags());
 currFlags &= ~IGraphicLayerInfo::kValidationFailed;
 setLayerCmdLayerInfo->SetGraphicLayerFlags(static_cast<IGraphicLayerInfo::GraphicLayerFla gs>(currFlags));
 // process the command
 CmdUtils::ProcessCommand(setLayerCmd);
 }
 }
 }
}

Reset clipping Path after replacing image?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 15:12:26 GMT

Hello

I have some code that works in CS3 but not in CS4. I need to reset the clipping path used after replacing an image in CS4. I use the method below to do this.

If I go to "Object->Clipping path Options " after I have updated the image, the settings look ok, but the whole image is show and not the selected path. If I change something in the dialog, like Inset frame , the the correct path is applied. Do I need to redraw the image somehow after I have processed the kSetClipValuesCmdBoss command?

Best regards

Handle the drag of an url to a document?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 12:37:08 GMT

How can I replace the drag and drop hander in a document with my own?

I would like to get a chance to hande a drop made in an InDesign document. I would like to be able to handle the drop from a brower, and pass all other flavors to the original drag and drop handler.

What class do I need to subclass, and is it possible to do so?

Best regards

Reset Text wrap?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 10:27:23 GMT

I have a plugin that replaces images in an indesign document. My problem is that I need to delete the previuos image item before I place the new one. otherwise I need to reset scale, rotation, horizontal/vertical flip etc.. When i delete the old item, the text wrap settings of the image item/frame gets deleted as well. How can I reset the text wrap? Currently I use ITextWrapFacade to store the values of both frame and image item, but reseting them does not work completely. What is the easiest way to do this? This is how i store the values Utils<Facade::ITextWrapFacade> wrapFacade; IStandOff::mode mode = wrapFacade->GetMode( oldRef); wrapFacade->GetInvert( oldRef, invert); wrapFacade->GetMargins( oldRef, wTop, wLeft, wBottom, wRight, singleDist); wrapFacade->GetIgnoreWrap( oldRef, ignore); wrapFacade->GetActiveFromMaster(oldRef, wActive); wrapFacade->GetZOrderBasedTextWrap( oldRef,wZ); wrapFacade->GetInvert( frameRef, invertFrame); wrapFacade->GetMargins( frameRef, wTopFrame, wLeftFrame, wBottomFrame, wRightFrame, singleDistFrame); wrapFacade->GetIgnoreWrap( frameRef, ignoreFrame); wrapFacade->GetActiveFromMaster(frameRef, frameActive); wrapFacade->GetZOrderBasedTextWrap( frameRef, frameZ); This is how I reset the values if (modeFrame != IStandOff::kNone) { wrapFacade->SetMargins( UIDList(frameRef), wTopFrame, wLeftFrame, wBottomFrame, wRightFrame); wrapFacade->SetActiveFromMaster(frameRef, frameActive); wrapFacade->SetContourWrapSettings (frameRef, contourTypePtr, pathIndexPtr, alphaIndexPtr, tolerancePtr, threshholdPtr, allowHolesPtr); wrapFacade->SetIgnoreWrap( UIDList(frameRef), ignoreFrame); wrapFacade->SetInvert( UIDList(frameRef), invertFrame); wrapFacade->SetMode( UIDList(frameRef), modeFrame, true); wrapFacade->SetMargins( UIDList(frameRef), wTopFrame, wLeftFrame, wBottomFrame, wRightFrame); wrapFacade->SetActiveFromMaster(frameRef, frameActive); wrapFacade->SetZOrderBasedTextWrap( frameRef, frameZ); //CAlert::ErrorAlert("frame"); // wrapFacade->SetMode( UIDList(newRef), mode); } else if (mode != IStandOff::kNone) { wrapFacade->SetMargins( UIDList(newRef), wTopFrame, wLeftFrame, wBottomFrame, wRightFrame); wrapFacade->SetActiveFromMaster(newRef, frameActive); wrapFacade->SetContourWrapSettings (newRef, contourTypePtr, pathIndexPtr, alphaIndexPtr, tolerancePtr, threshholdPtr, allowHolesPtr); wrapFacade->SetIgnoreWrap( UIDList(newRef), ignoreFrame); wrapFacade->SetInvert( UIDList(newRef), invertFrame); wrapFacade->SetMode( UIDList(newRef), modeFrame, true); wrapFacade->SetMargins( UIDList(newRef), wTopFrame, wLeftFrame, wBottomFrame, wRightFrame); wrapFacade->SetActiveFromMaster(newRef, frameActive); wrapFacade->SetZOrderBasedTextWrap( newRef, frameZ); } Best regards / Pontus Hulin

Im doing proofing plugin for InDesign CS3/InCopy CS3 , and I would like to proof the contents of a table. Getting the text from the table is no problem, but how do I select text in a table(cell) to mark a missspelled word, and how can I replace text in a cell?
