launch script eval(file.read()) palette or dialog

[Andrei Popa]

First, I would put an else after checking if the file exists. So the script doesn’t try to open the next script.

Then, I think(not by far sure) that what happens is that you declare the second window inside the button variable. So i think the scope is what makes you trouble. I thin dialog has direct scope to the main app or something(since you can;t have 2).

Long story short, if you declare your second window inside the main program, it works.

File 1 :
var w = new Window("palette", "script", undefined);
var w2 = new Window("palette", "script", undefined);

var btn = w.add("button", undefined, "Lauch");

var file = new File("‎~/Desktop/test.jsx");

btn.onClick = function () {
if (!file.exists) {
alert("WRONG LOCATIONS")
} else {
file.open("r");
eval(file.read());
file.close();
}

}

w.show();

File 2:
var btn = w2.add("button",undefined,"TEST");

w2.show();

That makes sense.

Cheers for that.

Tomas on the adobe forums posted this and it appears to work, when doing a few tests with it.
He said he couldn’t explain why it worked, just that it does.

var w = new Window("palette", "script", undefined);
var btn = w.add("button", undefined, "TEST");

w.onResizing = function() {
this.layout.resize();
};

w.show();
