I'm new to scripting, so please forgive me if I get the jargon wrong or miss something totally obvious.
I like to write the odd script for Photoshop etc, but I'm not able to install ExtendScript ToolKit because my computer is running Mojave and it's no longer supported.
After some frustration trying different script editors, I've finally settled on Visual Studio Code, which has an ExtendScript debugger plugin. Unfortunately though, it doesn't include the Object Model Viewer, so I can't easily look up objects or methods I'm not familiar with. (Which is most of them haha.)
So far if I need to view object/method properties for ExtendScript I use one of these options:
- Refer to Adobe's official documentation (PDF format)
- Open the native Mac Script Editor and load a dictionary (doesn't have code examples)
- Google it (for hours)
Is this it? Is there no OMV equivalent I can use within VS Code, or as a standalone that's more user-friendly than a PDF? I was initially trying to work in the Mac Script Editor since it seemed to be the closest option, but it kept crashing on me and I got sick of it.
If there's a solution out there, please let me know. If not, maybe this post will help someone else.
