External Script Editors?

Does anybody have suggestions for external script-editors
that work with
Lingo? I've tried the usual searches, but the first several
pages of Google
all seem to link to the same program (lingo script editor
0.42) whose
website is now defunct - www.creative-inspiration.net (Don't
bother clicking
that link, there's nothing there.) I don't know if that
specific program
is what I'm looking for (can't even get a screenshot), but
it's the only one
that seems to appear on searches, and it doesn't even exist
anymore, so I
don't know where else to look. Ideally, something that works
from within
the Director authoring environment would be best, I'm not
sure how many fit
the bill for that, but I'm getting pretty sick of all the
annoying bugs and
lack of features in the default internal editor. (Is
highlighting of
corresponding parentheses too much to ask? Every other code
editor in the
world does it, but not Director's for some reason. Also
collapsable code
blocks would be nice, and a "what links here" feature like on
wikis to track
code a bit better would be really invaulable. Heck, even a
back-button to
go back to the last script you were working on? Nah, that's
just asking too
much.)

Is there a different version of HiEditor somewhere? Because
the one you
pointed me to doesn't seem to have any such features at all,
basically just
seems to be Notepad with tabs. The Options menu doesn't seem
to have
anything that would allow you to do script highlighting,
auto-indent, or
basically anything except font and size. There's also no Help
file at all,
nor any info on the site about how to use this.

I looked at UltraEdit - played around with the shareware
version a bit.
Looks like it's got most of the features I was looking for,
though certain
things I can't get to work properly. (e.g. Auto-indents for
case
statements, proper indenting of lines with if/then and
command on the same
line, a few others) Also $50 is a bit steep for a
text-editor, I think.
Maybe I can get my boss to pay for it, (though not if it
comes at the cost
of my paycheck, you know how it is...)

  • "Files" and other tabs not visible for document library after script editor webpart is added

    I created a document library and uploaded a few documents to ti.  On the ribbon, I could see both "Files" and "Library" tabs.  I then added a Script Editor webpart to this page because I needed to run some javascript on this
    page.  Now, when I go to that document library page (AllItems.aspx) then I don't see the Files and Library tab.  My guess is that this is because these tabs are context sensitive so they only appear when Sharepoint knows you're working with a document
    library and since now I have both the webpart that shows the document library and the Script editor webpart, that context is not there.  If I click somewhere on the page close to the actual list of documents, then the Files and Library tabs reappear since
    now Sharepoint knows that I'm working with a document library.  Is there any way aroudn this?  We don't want to have to ask our customer to click somewhere on the screen in order to get access to these tabs.  I'm not sure why Sharepoint would
    be confused by the Script editor webpart.  It is not visible so when the page is not in edit more, you can't even see that Script editor.  So, my question is: is there any way to:
    - either find some other way of using javascript on this page (maybe external javascript file with some link to it on the page?
    - or, some way to force the Fiels and Library tabs to be visible no matter what (i.e. despite having the Script editor webpart on the page).
    I also experienced this issue when I wanted to insert some customized text on the same page that had a document library.  For example, I created a document library and then on the AllItems.aspx page I inserted a content editor webpart so that I can
    show some text at the top.  That also caused the Files and Library tabs to disappear.
    thanks,

    Hi,
    I understand Files/Libraray tab disappear after you add web parts to a document library, once you click somewhere in library list, it will appear again.
    This is by design. As workaround, please try to use SharePoint Desginer to edit Allitems page of document library instead of using script web part.

  • VS2013 Page Inspector does not use external script files

    If I use an external javascript file, the Page Inspector does not appear to run the javascript (as the styles created during runtime are not visible). If I run the web page outside of VS (e.g. IE) then it works.
    <script type="text/javascript" src="border.js"></script>
    However, if I use an internal script, the styles are created as expected.
    <script type="text/javascript">$("div").css("border", "2px solid red").add("p").css("background", "yellow");</script>
    Is the Page Inspector supposed to use external script files, and if not, are there plans to support it?

    Hi,
    Thank you for your post.
    I am afraid that the issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses
    the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
    and Visual Studio Editor.
    Because Page Inspector feature is more related to ASP.NET Application/Technology, in order to resolve your issue better,
    I suggest that you can consult your issue on ASP.NET forum:
    http://forums.asp.net/  for better solution and support.

  • External source editor

    Anyone know how to setup an external source editor?
    D11 allows one to change loads of media editors based on its
    "extension" and/or "mime/type", but there is in the list support
    for source editor, which IMHO is the most important of all.
    That and all the scripts DEFAULT to be writen as text files
    in the same directory as the cast/movie that they come from
    naturally.
    I would like to use a "serious" text editor to hack
    lingo/javascript scripts, not the internal text editor (which imho,
    should just be scraped and sticked to view/breakpoint/inspect
    mode).
    Thanx in advance,
    Kindaian

    I like to use NetBeans at
    http://www.netbeans.org/ . It
    does code folding, and has a nice javascript reference. You can set
    it up with Director by going to Edit->Preferences->Editors.
    Locate the Netbeans executable typically at:
    C:\Program Files\NetBeans 6.5\bin\netbeans.exe
    Be forewarned though: You must specify an external file with
    the .js extension for Nebeans to know its a javascript file.
    Unfortunately, if you just double click any cast member that is a
    script, Director launches the editor opening a temp file with the
    extension .ls (as in Linked Script -dumb). Netbeans won't know what
    to do with it and won't show you all the Javascript features like
    code folding.
    You must specify the external file first. To do this,
    highlight the script cast member and use the Property Inspector in
    Director to specify the 'Link As' file. Note that Director cache's
    this file inside your .dir so you won't need to distribute the .js
    source with your project.

  • Photoshop Elements 2.0 launches Script Editor

    When launching Photoshop Elements 2.0 today, the icon in the dock changed to a blank file icon and the Script Editor launched. The icon in the application folder did the same.
    I trashed the Elements application folder and reinstalled with the same result, three times.
    I repaired Permissions and restarted before and after installing.
    I have launched every other application on the machine without incident, so it seems confined to Photoshop.
    The same thing happened to the backup copy of Elements on the external drive connected to this machine.
    The only change since last using Elements successfully is the installation of Machacha, which splits and joins video files. I also trashed it as part of my recovery effort, to no avail.
    Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

    Sometimes out of the blue, for no evident reason, Finder/LaunchServices stops recognizing programs that end with a dot and a number as programs. I suppose one could try to discover why, and fix it, or you can just use GetInfo to change the application name from "Photoshop Elements 2.0" to "Photoshop Elements2.app"--which is easy to do and so far has always worked.

  • MDS, Script Editor WebPart does not load javascript files with script tag

    Hello everyone,
    I have MDS and I would like to use some custom Javascript inside of a script editor web part in a page of my site.
    When I add the references to the libraries I need in the Script Editor Web Part SharePoint is smart enough to disable MDS on that page.
    I would like to be able to load external libraries inside of my Script Editor Web Part (without using ScriptLink or anything that would require the edition of the masterpage) but still using the added value of MDS.
    Can I use SOD for that? What would be the best pattern? Could you provide a simple example?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi,
    Per my knowledge, including CSS and JavaScript files using HTML style and script tags is not supported in MDS(Minimal Download Strategy).
    We can refer the custom JavaScript file in the .aspx page or master page using ScriptLink control.
    <SharePoint:ScriptLink language="javascript" name="custom_javascript.js" runat="server" />
    The following articles for your reference:

  • [newbie qn] script runs under Script Editor but not as application

    I have a simple script that runs successfully under the Script Editor. The script is:
    tell application "Safari"
    activate
    tell (make new document) to set URL to "http://www.google.com"
    end tell
    However, when I tried to run it as an application, I encountered the error 'Can't set document "Untitled" of application "Safari" to "http://www.google.com".'
    How should I rewrite the script so that it would run as an application? Thanks!

    Hi PointZero01
    Your script compiles and works fine saved as an application and tested under 10.5.6.
    slightly different but does exactly the same
    tell application "Safari"
    activate
    make new document
    set URL of document 1 to "http://www.google.com"
    end tell

  • Script works in Script Editor, when saved as app, no longer works

    I've been playing around with AppleScript trying to learn a little. I wrote an app to fullscreen the current application. First I wrote one to full screen a specific app:
    tell application "Safari"
    set the bounds of the first window to {0, 0, 1440, 894}
    activate
    end tell
    This worked without any problems and I set a keyboard shortcut to activate it.
    Then I decided to make it work for the current app:
    tell current application
    set the bounds of the first window to {0, 0, 1440, 894}
    end tell
    When I ran it in Script Editor, it worked fine and set the bounds of the Script Editor window to what I asked. When I save it as an application the same way I did the first app, it doesn't work. I get the error message "Can't set the bounds of window 1 to {0, 0, 1440, 894}." I tried it on the same Script Editor window it worked on when I simply clicked run, but I keep getting the error message.

    try something like this saved as an app
    tell application "AppleScript Editor"
    activate
    make new document
    set the bounds of the first window to {0, 0, 1440, 894}
    make new paragraph at beginning of document 1 with data "hello world"
    end tell
    tell application "TextEdit"
    activate
    make new document
    set the bounds of the first window to {0, 0, 1440, 894}

  • Links to launch Script Editor no longer work

    Links to launch Script Editor no longer work.

    I don't know, I just use a very simple Applescript to enclose the clipboard in tags that allow the user to launch Script Editor from the browser:
    set the clipboard to "<a href=applescript://com.apple.scripteditor?action=new>Click here to launch Script Editor</a>.
    <pre class=COMMAND>" & return & (the clipboard) & return & "</pre>"
    And it wraps the script on the clipboard on PRE tags so the structure is preserved. Neither of those work now.

  • A program which used to open in Classic now opens in Script Editor

    I am using an old web design program by Symantec called Visual Page 1.1.1. It has worked fine for several years, but yesterday I opened it and instead of opening in Classic, it tried to open in "Script Editor" in OSX. Classic never opened at all. I have tried reinstalling it but the same problem occured. I tried using "Open with" Classic on the Info page, but Classic is greyed out. Can anyone help? I am starting to import the pages into a new program (Freeway) but this will take forever. I would like to still be able to work with this program. Thanks for any assistance. (I called Symantec and the program is too old for them to help with.)

    And Get Info shows it as a Script Editor document ? rather than Classic Application ?
    I had this about a year ago, but for the life of me, I can't remember what I did to fix it. I may have posted here when I got desperate. A search in discussions for Script Editor and Classic may come up with something.

    How to create a counter ?
    Edited by: Rajan.Dexter9 on Jan 30, 2012 9:40 PM

    Hello Rajan,
    Create a field in the table and name it as 'SERIAL'.  Create a variable called 'count' with default value as 0.  Now in script editor, for javascript language and calculate event, write the following script.
    var fields = xfa.layout.pageContent(xfa.layout.page(this)-1, "field", 0);
    for (var i=0; i <= fields.length-1; i++)
         if (fields.item(i).name == "SERIAL")
              count.value = count.value + 1;
                     this.rawValue = count.value;
