The api-doc included with the PProPanel sample code describes the setPlayerPosition method on Sequence as accepting a timecode string of the format 'hh;mm;ss;nn', when in fact setPlayerPosition takes a timecode expressed in ticks, as shown in the PProPanel example code.

In the PPro sample, rename the sequence marker is not working in PPro 2018 (in PPro 2017 it works).

Steps to reproduce:

• Open PPro sample extension
• Click in the "Add sequence markers" button
• The marker names are empty

This is a follow-up to this question that I posted in Adobe's Scripting SDK forum. In short, the RSSReader example does not work, in spite of adjusting the manifest.xml to

<Host Name="IDSN" Version="[10.0,12.9]"/>

to match the latest InDesign CC version. I've also set PlayerDebugMode to 1 in order to develop the extension, as per documentation. I am able to open the extension's panel but without content; trying to connect the debugger fails as well. I've also switched the logging level to INFO but get only an expected

2017-01-09 13:22:07:567 : INFO  PlugPlug version : 7.0.0.59

I've been trying to update keyframes on a simple clip which is just an image.
I've basically followed this implementation which was the only good example I saw on playing around with keyframes.

It seems that my image is actually updated and after the script is run, it really does change the component property(Scale in this case) and leaves the final result there. The only problem is that the keyframes are not being saved from what I can tell even though logging the component[].properties[].getKeys() return an array of Time objects.

I don't know if this is actually a bug or if it's something that I've missed when reading through the script on github. Anyway, any help is appreciated!

Hi Team,

I have created a custom HTML5 Extensional Panel for CC Bridge. I just want to know how can I get the image path for an image selected in CC Bridge.

Can I get it ?

One more thing - Can I edit keywords field in Metadata panel from my custom panel? I want to do it to sort/categorise image based on these keywords.

Hi,
I've moved the SimpleDissolveScripts into Photoshop/Presets/Scripts and when I launch: Filter > Simple Dissolve Extension... a progress bar flashes for a while but no extension with UI shows up.
Tried both on CC2014 and CC2015 - am I doing something wrong?
Thank you,

Just updated the PS to the latest version (2015.1 release), and every extension that used some node modules reported this error, why??

Now that the Exchange has relaunched we need to update or remove outdated examples.

should instead be:

Hello,

I would like to dive in adobe extension development but can't get it work.
I am working on OSX 10.14.4 with illustrator 23.0.4.

I have 'installed' the extensions properly and where loaded in the extension menu. When i click on a extension i just opens and display nothing:

I have setup debug as documented, restarted etc but localhost does also nothing.

Anyone know where to look?

Hi There,

it lists in the Windows->Extension Submenu on Mac inside PPRO.
But nothing happens when selecting the menu item.

Were you aiming to show folks how to insert a menu item in a Menu ? Or is a panel supposed to open.

One last question. If those panels are so powerful, how come 90% of all sample code never works,
Including this one ?

The UI Samples (https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/tree/master/UI_Showcase) URL appears to be broken or the repo's not available. Can anyone fix/remove that?

In Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2017 v11.1.1 an uncaught exception appears when executing the function app.encoder.encodeFile();
(In previous versions it worked fine)

In case you did not know ExtenScript Toolkit doesn't work on Mojave.
Entering in one line of code takes 40 SWODs and 60 seconds.

No one can work like that

Premiere Pro CC2017 bug here.

If you try to walk through all video clips of app.project.activeSequence and then walk through its components until you reach "AE.ADBE Motion" which corresponds to Rotation, Opacity etc. And then try to change the corresponding property with the name "Position" or just call getValue() of it - the exception "Bad argument" fill fire.

There's no such problem with Opacity for example. Seems position is a vector value and getValue should work some other non-documented way? There's nothing in Samples about that. Can you help?

Thank you!

My Premiere panel works perfectly on some machines, but on others, the script trips up on core javascript functions - I get errors like ".indexOf() is not a function" or ".filter() is not a function" when doing some operations on arrays inside the JSX. Why would that happen on some machines but work on others if the files inside the extension folders are identical and all machines have Premiere up to date?

PProPanel is misleading. It contains the --enable-nodejs directive in the manifest but that directive does nothing, because:

1. CEFCommandLine is in the wrong place. It's under <DispatchInfo> instead of under <Resources>.
2. <ExtensionManifest Version="4.0">, instead of "5.0" or higher (but not "8.0" because then your extension is not loaded, of course...).

If we copy the sample to create our own panel, we expect Node.js to work since --enable-nodejs is defined. However, it doesn't work. This can be verified by debugging in Chrome (cep_node is undefined) and also by enabling verbose logging, opening ~/Library/Logs/CSXS/CEP8-PPRO.log and seeing that CEFCommandLine is not displayed for PProPanel.

Please add documentation of minimum Version and CEFCommandLine location in manifest. I just wasted a whole day on this. The sample here is correct.

This is an issue regarding:

• The samples contained within this repo.

Versions

• CEP version(s) used [must be 8.x+ for this repo]: 8.0
• Supported CC app(s) and version(s): PPro 12.0

Prior to the 2015.2 release if you dragged a text element over an empty document and then dropped, the text frame was created with the drop text inserted. Now you must first create a text frame and only then will dropping text work.

I just downgraded InDesign and confirmed using the CEP_HTML_Test_Extension example.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open InDesign and create a new document.
2. Open "CEP HTML Test Panel 1”
3. Click the “Drag and Drop” option
4. Drag one of the examples - InDesign document show drop icon and gray border showing document is gaining focus but nothing happens on drop.

Hello this isn't issue more of a question.
I am looking for a Adobe Premiere js libary i can use to build a import or project?
I make alot of elearning classes i 60 sequences so i just wrote a a script to built the premiere sequences. standard stuff intro/main/outro and put all the files in the the chapter-> sequence -> bin.
I built reverse engineered hack to build my own adobe premiere import using the final cut pro spec I just stumbeled to these samples. do you have a legitmimate librarby I can use? i can push my stuff to the web service and pull it in json/xml if that is easier.

Hi,
is it possible to know what is the state-of-the-art for Exchange API?
Are they already implemented Add-ons server side? Is there a roadmap/timeframe you can share?
Thank you very much,

Davide

There are several APIs listed in the PProPanel sample project's api_doc.html documentation that have misleading explanations. Specifically, the return value explanation is frequently at odds with the actual value returned. An example is Project.ImportFiles:

Returns 0 if Premiere Pro successfully imports the array of file paths. If suppressUI is true, no UI will be presented. if importAsNumberedStills is true, Premiere Pro will attempt to import the array as a still image sequence.

The documentation suggests that the function should return a falsey 0 in the case that the import was successful. Currently, and this is another bug, the example above always returns a boolean value of true, both on success and failure (testing was conducted with audio files).

This is the case for Premiere Pro 2017.1.

Is the simpledissolve extension compatible with the most recent Photoshop CC (19.1.1)?
I did not find any information about how to install the extension, so I copied the three folders SimpleDissolveUI, SimpleDissolveScripts, SimpleDissolveApplyFilter into
%AppData%\Adobe\CEP\extensions\.

The readme implies that a menu item "Simple Dissolve Extension…" will show up in the Filter menu, however, no such menu item appears after restarting Photoshop.

This is an issue regarding:

• Sample to showcase building CEP Panels with UI frameworks.

Description of the issue

The samples contained within this repo doesn't show how to build UI with any of the existing UI frameworks like React, Angular. I would like to have an example to show how to build a CEP Panel with Angular so we can integrate this with Typescript.

I would like to send a PR for this.

Can you please tell me how you build your extensions?
After making your extension, if you modify your code ,then how do you see the output?
How do you see output in developing stage ?

Still not working in PPro2018. Possibly related to this this bug.

Hi,

Scripting against Premiere Pro - 13.1. Purpose: add a key-frame on the in point, one on the outpoint and 2 in between. The timing is always off. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

My Code:

var seq = app.project.activeSequence;
var ip = seq.getInPointAsTime();
var op = seq.getOutPointAsTime();

var firstVideoTrack = seq.videoTracks[0];
var clipsFromFirstVidTrack = firstVideoTrack.clips;
var theClip;
var clipComponents;

// get the selected clip
for (var i = 0; i < clipsFromFirstVidTrack.numItems; i++) {
  var currentClip = clipsFromFirstVidTrack[i];
  if (clipsFromFirstVidTrack[i].isSelected()) {
    theClip = clipsFromFirstVidTrack[i];
    clipComponents = theClip.components;
  }
}

for(var j = 0; j < clipComponents.numItems; ++j) {
  if(clipComponents[j].displayName == "Motion") {
    var motion = clipComponents[j];
    var motionScale = motion.properties.getParamForDisplayName("Scale");
    var k = motionScale.getKeys();
    if (!motionScale.isTimeVarying()) { motionScale.setTimeVarying(true); }
    motionScale.addKey(ip.seconds);
    motionScale.addKey(ip.seconds + 1);
    motionScale.addKey(op.seconds - 1);
    motionScale.addKey(op.seconds);
    var k = motionScale.getKeys();

    if (motionScale.areKeyframesSupported() == true) {
      var result = motionScale.getValueAtKey(ip);
      motionScale.setValueAtKey(ip.seconds, 100, false); // 100%
      motionScale.setValueAtKey(ip.seconds + 1, 200, false); // 200%
      motionScale.setValueAtKey(op.seconds - 1, 200, false); // 200%
      motionScale.setValueAtKey(op.seconds, 100, true); // 100%
    }
  }
}

The result:

The result is inconsistent by the way. Sometimes the key-frames are inserted too early, sometimes too late (like in this example).

Best regards,
FreVsAlpha

The example for the excellent XMPBridge unfortunately leads to an Unregistered namespaceURI schema error when used.

 *          // now we're ready to go.
 *          XMPBridge.read('NS_DC', 'title');
 *          

Instead the example should probably include reference to the fact that you can get the the namespace URI from Adobe's constants like NS_DC by calling XMPBridge.toNamespaceURI()

 *          // now we're ready to go.
 *          XMPBridge.toNamespaceURI('NS_DC', function(namespaceUri) {
 *              XMPBridge.read(namespaceUri, 'title');
 *          });

Hi,

dragging image to the finder works as expected, however if I try to drag an item to the timeline or project window it is not added.

I am using OSX 10.9.5 with PPRO 8.1.0 (81)

Problem: The extension refreshes by itself after resume the script execution

To reproduce the bug, first you need to enable Node.js in PProPanel:

• Change ExtensionManifest Version from 4.0 to 6.0
• Move CEFCommandLine from DispatchInfo to the Resources tag

manifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ExtensionManifest Version="6.0" ExtensionBundleId="com.adobe.PProPanel" ExtensionBundleVersion="11.1"

Steps to reproduce the bug:

• Add a breakpoint in the Chrome debugger
• Trigger an action to execute the code with the breakpoint
• The script execution is stopped
• Resume the execution (F8) or Step over/into the next function (F10/F11)
• The extension refreshes by itself, preventing the correct debugging for the extension

Enviroment to reproduce the bug:

• CEP 8.x (Premiere Pro 2018)
• Windows 10
• Extension with Node.js enabled
• Breakpoint in any JavaScript code

Notes:

• I couldn't reproduce it on Mac

Breakpoint

After resume the execution, the extension reloads automatically

It runs well when I choose Window->Extensions->PProPanel (SDK sample panel) in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014.
However, when I'm trying to run it in Extendscript Toolkit CC, there are several errors:

1. on line 424, app.encoder.setSideCarXMPEnabled(0);
2. when I fix the bug above (to app.encoder.setSide__c__arXMPEnabled(0);), there is no error message prompted. But nothing happened when the function render() runs.

how we can detect activeClipChangeInTimeline event?
is it any document that mentioned all supported events in premiere pro?
I didn't find it in premiere Document.

Hi -- The Typescript example is really useful, but seems to only have typings for Premiere. Is there any chance Adobe could generate typings for its other products? In particular, I'm interested in Illustrator. Cheers! nehal

either by modifying the manifest, the panels are not created. Those samples does not work with AE.

@bbb999 as there's a rather new function Track.overwriteClip (not listed in Premiere's 11.0 Object Model), is there maybe a function to just remove a clip from a Track?

Generally: is it possible to remove entries from Collections? Like in this case a TrackItem from a TrackItemCollection of a Track.

Hi there,

Is there's a way to attach event in JSX to PPro's event ? For example when the user import a file, is there a way to get a callback called ?

Thanks.

We can use the Script UI in Extensions, Progressbar also works fine in OSX. However, When we call ScriptUI's panel or window from CEP side, we got blank window in Windows. Definitely, Works fine same code when call from ESTK.

Hi, I'm making customized panel for Premiere Pro CC 2018.
I expect my panel can perform a few functions:

1. split(cut) a track(both audio and video) into 2 subtracks by time parameter
   ex) There are simply two panels, my panel and built-in track panel. A video track is already imported in track panel. I want split this track into 2 subtracks at 10 sec.
2. change the start time of a track
   ex) A video track is already imported in track panel. I want move this track backward or forward 10 sec.

Can I achieve these two goals through CEP?
I'm looking around Premiere Pro Scripting DOM API (which includes classes such as App, TrackItem, ...).
Now, I'm referring to Object Model Viewer that can be reached from ExtendScript Toolkit CS5. But it seems like unfriendly and poor, so I want detailed docs about these. Can anyone give me the links or docs?

Hi

I am a beginner. I am just starting to learn how to write extensions/panels. I am using PPRO v12.0.
I copied the PProPanel sample to ~//Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions directory. Changed the manifest.xml files

When I open Primiere Pro, I don't see the panel in Windows -> Extensions menu.

Am I missing something here? How do I get the panel to show up?

The documentation on http://ppro.aenhancers.com/ states that there's a function setStartTime for instances of the ProjectItem object, this is wrong. ProjectItem has the method setInPoint(value). Beyond that setInPoint and setOutPoint have quite some strange behaviour concerning the parameter. This parameter is the offset in seconds from the start of the item and not a timecode or a value in Ticks like it is used with sequences.

It looks like the host version numbers aren't up-to-date with the latest CC tool versions. E.g. InDesign should be Version="[11.0,12.9]" or the like.
