Dear friends and experts,
Until now I always had at least one document open before I started my script. Now I first started the script (File > Scripts > Catalog > scriptname > Run) just after FM start. The effect described also happened in the past during debugging and I attributed it to forgetting to unregister etc. But now I just 'work' with the script.
The following happens randomly after having open one or more documents.
As soon as I want to open a panel (via shortcut or from the menu) the script reports
Error Message : Unable to create Window Script, Line# : E:\_DDDprojects\FM-calc\FMcalc\FMcalc_dialogC.jsx, 14
The referenced script line is this or similar:
wPalC = new Window("palette", goTxt.wPalC, undefined);
Each test is a separate start of FM, then starting the script, then opening the first document.
Test 1: One document open; error after first invocation of panel
Test 2: 5 documents open; after each open invocation of panel OK
Test 3: One document open; error after first invocation of panel
Test 4: One document open; error after first invocation of panel
Test 5: Open FM and just leave it. This requires at the next start to search for the script.
Test 6: 4 documents open; after each open invocation of panel OK
What I have found so far on this problem is of little help: www.hivmr.com, www.deskdr.com
The only reasonable information is given here: simplephotoshop.com/elementsplus/
«Unfortunately, this is a bug in Adobe's script engine known to users of PSE and Photoshop and the total remedy hasn't been found yet. As a rule, this problem resolves itself after several computer re-boots. However, if in your case the problem persists, the author can suggest the only solution - using the action based version of "Elements+" »
This reflects my experience of randomness.
Any other ideas how to cure the problem?
