JavaScript Operation

This document operation contains a JavaScript code that is executed when the operation is run. The code can access the active document and multiple of global objects.

The actual global objects and interfaces accessible from the JavaScript code may depend on the application you are using and the current document.

Also check out the video tutorial related to scripting.

• Context - access window states (like selection or active color), stop processing and report errors.

How do you add the script to the toolbar? I don't see any button to do that.
