How can we improve Adobe Illustrator (Desktop) SDK?

← Illustrator (Desktop) SDK/Scripting Issues
'Variable text fields' has been merged into this idea

CEP: Waaaay more events from AI to CEP Panels (e.g. selection changed)

In a panel I would like to receive events from the host app - in this case AI.

Please provide events for
- selection changed
- layers added/changed
- items added (items of any kind)
- items deleted
- etc

Current workarounds: polling (setTimer) for changes...thats far from ideal.

The current situation is more than sad (not regarding the lack of documentation).

    Hi, AIHostAdapter might help. To be honest, I never tried it

    I agree. There needs to be a much richer events API.
