Add link for a script from Indesign menu

Dear,
Is it possible to add a new menu on Indesign top menu near help for exemple.
And it is possible to lanche a script from it ?
thanks !

Look at ScriptMenuAction.jsx in the Scripting Guide Sample Scripts. Of course it can do anything that a script can do, since it is itself a script and scripts can run scripts.

Thank you, Kasyan.
800 lines of script is little be intimidating.
What we are trying to achieve is to open jpgs in Photoshop and resave them as tiffs and replace same jpg with corresponding tiff in Indesign as it was placed before.
Is there a way to call Photoshop from Indesign through appleScript.
I have most of the script done for Indesign and I have Photoshop shript ready that saves jpgs as tiffs done. I am only missing the part where I can call this existing Ph. script from Indisign.
We prefer not to use BridgeTalk if possible, because we have a lot of programs open and running in the same time, and would like to avoid to open one more program (BridgeTalk).
Thank you very much for your great help.

Add a for each script to loop through HTTPService?

I'm using Flash Builder 4 with the Flex 4.1 SDK. I want to add a "for each" script to loop through my HTTPService XML file so only each nepName displays only once in my dropdown list. In my XML file I have multiple records associated with nepName. I would like ALL the records associated with each nepName to populate in my datagrid when it is selected from the dropdown. Currently in my dropdown there is a nepName entry for each XML tag. I hope I was able to explain that well enough. I'll try to put my code below so you can see everything I'm working with.

Hi all,
After running the script from indesign, I get following error
ASSERT '(engine->getDebugFlags() & ScScript::kExtendedErrors) == ScScript::kExtendedErrors' in ..\..\..\source\components\script\javascript\JavaScriptRunner.cpp at line 412 failed.

any idea about this?
The script runs fine when run from ES tool kit.
Thanks

Hi,
My colleague found the problem. We were using extendables library and we still haven't figured out what was actually happening, but removing it solved the problem.

Couldn't create a postscript file for the devnagri script from indesign

Hi,
Couldn't create the postscript file for the indesign devnagri script. Its throughing error saying offending fonts.
I have added a link where u can download the rar file which contains indesign file and required fonts.
http://wikisend.com/download/278714/Devnagri Script.rar

@Raghugada – I tested with your new font (no license restriction) and could print to PostScript and distill to PDF without problems. Something else is wrong on your side. Could you provide an IDML file instead of the inDesign file? I will test this as well.
And: How do you print to PostScript?
Do you do it with the right PPD? The "Adobe PDF 9.0" ? (PPD => PostScript Printer Description File)
Do you do it with the right setting in the print dialog of InDesign?
PostScript Level 3, binary, all fonts fully embedded?

Automatically debugging when calling a script from a menu item

Hi All,
I'm coming accross an issue that I was wondering if anyone can help me with or point me in the correct direction.
I have two start up scripts.
One runs in the "session" target engine and setups ups some custom menu items and actions which call some other custom scripts.
The other runs in my own custom session and is used to initialize and share common constants and functions between my custom scripts.
This all appears to run as expected and clicking on the new menu item calls the correct script however even without the ExtendedScript Toolkit running as soon as i click on the menu item it will load up the ESTK and break on the first line of the script. If I press F5 to continue processing it will finish and runs fine.
I am currently using the excellent extendables package (http://extendables.org/) to do some HTTP and simplify UI creation which does not specify a session.
Does anyone know what is causing the scripts to be automatically debugged or is there a setting that might be set to cause this?
Is this being caused by "session" calling "customSession" using code that will run in the default "main" session?
this really is irritating me at the moment so if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.
This is all done using JavaScript in InDesign CS 5.5
Thanks in advance

just a quick update.
After stripping back and stubbing out some code I have been able to trigger a "session" going to my "customSession" then to a non-session (the default) so this is not causing my issue.
As I mentioned above i am using the extendables package and this appears to be where my issue is arrising. as soon as i include the package:
#include "extendables/extendables.jsx"
i get the strange behaviour of it going into debugging mode on the first line of the script being run by my menuItem eventHandler.
This is without actually using any of the modules available in the extendables package just including it.
I will try to post a message on the website for this package but if anybody has any ideas about what might be in there that is causing this I would appreciate any ideas/suggestions/theories.
Cheers

Linking to mulitple DVDs from main menu

I'm doing my first DVDSP session. It's a wedding video. I'm including an edited video(24 minutes), photos, and then raw footage (roughly 3 hours). I have set up the main menu with edited video, photo, and then raw video options. When choosing raw video I want to be able to access chapters easily.
I understand that this is too much footage for 1 dvd and could even be too much for two dvds. I also know that if it were only two dvds I could set up the format so that DVDSP thinks I'm using a two-sided dvd and then burn to two separate dvds. But if this is three dvds how do I set it up so that the program and menu know this?
I'm thinking of the 4 dvd Lord of the Rings series where the main menu instructs you to insert the correct DVD when you choose an item not included on the inserted DVD (ie, "please insert DVD 4 now").
For example if I'm in the first DVD with the main menu and submenus and want to skip to the chapter where the best man makes a drunken fool of himself on the dance floor, can I set DVDSP up so that I'm told to insert DVD 3 to view the content?

Yes you can do that. I'm guessing though that the process won't be what you think. The function that you mention on the LOTR DVD isn't because the DVD "knows" where everything is. That works only by planning out what will be on each DVD and making what are essentially menus to refer the viewer to the disc that the content chosen is on. e.g. You use the same main menu for every disc, but on discs that don't actually contain that content you jump to a menu that says "content y is on disc x". That menu has 1 big button that jumps back to the main menu when selected.
In my experience it's better to make each disc its own thing, but to add an "Other Programs (or something along those lines)" button on the main menu. This button links to a single this stuff (list) is on other disc menu that will communicate where the content is without infuriating a viewer who keep selecting things just to be told they're on three discs.
Also... 3 hours of RAW FOOTAGE!? That's too much, and won't get watched, I promise. Cut it down and divide the rest into two sequences in FCP. You'll need two sequences so you have two MPEG 2s so you can put one on each disc. If you're wedding video spills onto 3 DVDs then you haven't cut enough and your bit rate is too high. When doing wedding videos I only ever went to 2 discs on long Catholic weddings.

Remove picture/link to 'user accounts' from start menu by GPO

Hi,
I'm trying to remove everything from the start menu, users will have desktop short cuts appropriate to their role and nothing else. The last item I cannot disable or remove is the picture which also functions as a link to 'user accounts'. I don't
care if the picture stays just so long as it is completely static.
Alternatively, a means to completely remove the start menu would be fine.
Thanks
Julian

Simply block Control Panel - Users and Groups, and nothing will happen...

Run powershell script from context menu

Hi guys!
I do not know if what I'm going to
ask you is achievable.
This is what I want:
when I click with the right mouse button
a file, possibly with certain extensions,
the context menu appears, and
here I would to create an
object that can run the script that I have created
and assign as an argument the selected file.
It would also be necessary that such an object is
similar to the"send to" button.
Browsing the net I had found the
script to create such an object, however,
I have no idea on how to implement it
and then how to run my script.
Thanks

Hi jrv!
Initially, I will try to follow your suggestion but I'd prefer to use some automation, possibly related to powershell as required, because i must do this thing on many computers.
Thanks
A
Y((ou would do that with Group Policy as it is just a registry update.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
