Removing the square (grey) artifact in the bottom-right corner

Photoshop UXP Plugin API

If you are developing a panel that is affected by a small grey rectangular artifact as demonstrated below:

247×303 8.07 KB

…you can call the following API to hide it.

window.require('photoshop').core.suppressResizeGripper({"type": "panel", "target": <panelId>, "value": true})

where the panelId is the one defined in your manifest.json .

We are looking to make the described a more permanent ‘opt-in’ experience versus the runtime API, but the API is not slated to be removed any time soon.

Small tip for not having to hardcode the panelID (at least that’s how I did it to begin with):
Depending on your setup, you might be able to import JSON files like
import manifest from '../uxp/manifest.json'
and access it via manifest.entrypoints[0].id in case of a single-panel-plugin (index 0).

This makes it much less prone to errors when changing the ID at a later point.

I am struggling to remove this square from the bottom right corner.

In my index.js I have put

window.require('photoshop').core.suppressResizeGripper(
   {
   "type": "panel", 
   "target": "com.jdp.frames", 
   "value": true
   })

“target” has to be your panel id, specified in the Manifest under “entrypoints” :wink:
