Launching plugins with Javascript

Post by mikekrell »

Hello,
I was wondering if it were at all possible to launch installed plugins within javascript. I have found an example, but it seems like a work around. I want my flex panel to pull the list of .plugin files out of Photoshop CS5/Plugins into a drop down, and then let me launch it with a button. I know that I could make an action to launch a plugin, then listen to is and pull out the code, but I want to be able to have it work without hardcoding my plugins into the code. Hope this makes sense!

Thanks,
Mike
