Get a Better Script Panel in Adobe CS5 Apps

CreativePro Staff

Press Release
In-Tools is excited to introduce Script Bay! Script Bay is a FREE script panel replacement for the entire Creative Suite CS5.
It currently works in InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator. It is partially compatibility with Flash and Fireworks and to a lesser extent, Bridge. Script Bay will not work in CS4 or earlier. It’s built using the new CS SDK which Adobe introduced for CS5. It’s impossible to make it compatible with any version of the Creative Suite prior to CS5.
Script Bay is very much a “work in progress”, but it is already far more usable than the script panel in InDesign, and without question more usable than the non-existing ones in Photoshop, Illustrator! We hope to add many exciting new features to Script Bay in the future!
Here’s a quick overview of the current features:
* Script Bay offers the ability to run scripts located anywhere on your hard drive.
* Scripts can be viewed in either a list-view or tree-view.
* The list of scripts can be dynamically filtered, and scripts can be launched via keyboard navigation.
* Scripts can be edited directly in the built-in Script Bay script editor.
* Multiple scripts or folders full of scripts can be run in a single command.
* Script files can be moved, duplicated, deleted, and renamed directly within the panel.
* Scripts run in the Script Bay panel can be undone in InDesign as a single undo.
* Scripts can be easily “installed” into the host application.
* Script Bay has a default “cross-application” folder, and scripts placed in this folder are automatically available to all CS applications.
* Script Bay supports drag & drop for moving around script files as well as loading scripts into the script editor.
* Scripts can be added to Script Bay from anywhere on your hard drive by simple drag & drop.
We have more exciting plans for Script Bay, and we hope you enjoy Script Bay as much as we do!
