class SnpCreateThumbInspectorPanel


Shows how to create and display an object-inspector panel using the InpsectorPanel object, with a thumbnail-type subpanel, a ThumbnailPanelette object.

Usage

  1. Run the snippet in the ExtendScript Toolkit (see Readme.txt), setting Bridge CS5 as the target application.
  2. Select a thumbnail in the Bridge Content pane
  3. Open the Inspector Panel if it is not already open.
  4. You should see information displayed about the thumbnail selected

Description

Shows how to create an object-inspector panel using the InpsectorPanel object, with a thumbnail-type subpanel defined by a ThumbnailPanelette object.

The subpanel demonstrates ways to use panelette markup syntax to retrieve dynamic text values from the thumbnail's core node data, and also generates a text value by calling a thumbnail method at display time.

After it is registered, the panel appears in all menus that list available palettes. It is displayed in its default position at the top left of the browser, when the Inspector is checked in the Window menu. Drag it to another location or change the relative sizes of palette columns to see how the text is displayed.

The key-value pairs used to populate the ThumbnailPanelette use both string literals and panelette markup to specify dynamic values.
