VisualizaçõesIs it possible to detect the change of page in InDesign using CEP/ExtendScript/JS?
I'm currently creating a plugin on InDesign and I would like to know if it's possible to detect if the user changes page ?
I searched in the web and documentation, I found a few events but nothing that interests me.
I thought about storing the user's current page, detecting if there is a click event in the application in general (because there are several ways to switch pages) and retrieving the current page to do something like :
If (previousCurrentPage == newCurrentPage) {
alert('The user changed page !');
}
But I don't think it's possible to handle all page switching techniques.
So I would absolutely need to detect a user's page change.
Thanks in advance !
UPDATE
What I mean by page change is page change in the document on InDesign.
Here, the user is therefore on the 1st page of the document :
Here the user is on the 3rd page of the document:
It's this change of page that I would like to be able to recover via my plugin.

You can look at
app.activeWindow.activePage
in Extendscript

SOLUTION
To get the index of the page, I make this line of code in ExtendScript :
app.activeWindow.activePage.documentOffset;
And to detect the page change, I have a setInterval() that is called every 700ms and calls the above code snippet.
If the previous page is different from the current page, I enter my condition and set my current page as the previous one.
