Script to select all layers based on condition?

Do anyone have a script to select all layers based on either name or color label? Possibly using search but not necessarily?

If you search this forum you will find script that will process all layers in a document. You can modify one if them to skip the layers you do not want to process do nothing to the. The process uses recursion to process layers within layer groups,.

Selecting all "error" tracks

An awful lot of my tracks (hundreds, maybe thousands) are showing up twice in iTunes, one copy of each with an error ("!" in a grey circle) icon by the side, all because I've changed the location of my MP3 folder and reimported the tracks back into iTunes. Holding down CTRL and clicking each one individually, then pressing DELETE is driving me crazy as you would expect, so is there an easy way to select all tracks which have an error status?

Go to my iTunes scripts page and follow the link there for downloading Perl (if you don't have it already). Install Perl, and then download and run my itunesremovenotfound.pl script (by double-clicking on the downloaded file) to remove the tracks with !. Select the Library (number 1) when prompted.
NOTE: the script will run MUCH faster if, in iTunes, you select a DIFFERENT playlist to view than the Library.

Apple script to find all image files on computer and put them into 1 folder

Is there any way to do this with apple script? Thanks

Hi glaurung,
Doing this with vanilla AppleScript and the Finder would take too long. There might be a way to do this with unix commands, but probably the best way to this would be to use the built in find for your system. I wouldn't search the whole computer. Maybe just search somewhere in your Home folder. Use a criteria like all files with extension jpg, tiff, tif, etc.. Then you can just drag the found files into whatever folder you want. You need to be cautious because you wouldn't want to move all files. For instance, you wouldn't want to move all pictures in your iPhoto library, other apps, or the System.

Apple script to select a message

For my apple script I need to select the last message in the Inbox in Mail. How do I do that?

If you mean the most recently received, you need the (non-intuitive) first message,eg:
first message of mailbox "INBOX" of account ".Mac Account"

Script to select all overflow text frames and fit them to content?

I have a document with several text frames that have overset text, due to replacing a font. I was looking for a script that would:
1. find all the text frames that have overset text
2. apply "fit frame to content" command for each of these
Can anyone please help me here? I'm trying to learn scripting but some of these things still confuse me. Thanks.

hi,
give a try to this js code:
var _d = app.documents[0];
var _allStories = _d.stories;
for(var n=_allStories.length-1;n>=0;n--){
var _storyAllTextFrames = _allStories[n].textContainers;
for(var m=_storyAllTextFrames.length-1;m>=0;m--){
_storyAllTextFrames[m].select();
            //Fit Frame to Content:
            try{
            app.scriptMenuActions.itemByID(11291).invoke();
                }catch(e){};
           try{
           app.scriptMenuActions.itemByID(278).invoke();
                }catch(e){};

Apple script to find all duplicate files

Is it possible to write an applescript to find all duplicate file names on my hard drive? My hd is almost full, and if I can delete duplicate files, it'll save me from having to buy another external drive.
Thanks,
George

Why would you have found 20GB of duplicate images? iPhoto has built-in duplicate detection, it can remove any duplicates or prevent them from being imported altogether. Did you disable this in iPhoto for some reason? Or were you still using folders and subfolders to store your photos?
Just because two pictures have the exact same filename does NOT mean they are identical. If this application you used simply compared their filenames, it's possible you actually lost all those photos and not just some duplicates. ;( Because many cameras reuse filenames after a certain point!

How to clear all bookmarks and then IMPORT

.Mac synch messed up my bookmarks. I really thought "merge" meant add any that weren't there before. Instead every single bookmark now appears twice, including the bookmark bar.
How do I delete everything - to start with a clean slate, and import from an export I created from my Powerbook? I think it is time to ditch synching and do it manually. I never really worked for me anyway.
I looked at <<Reset Safari>> but that doesn't mention bookmarks?
Ian

Hi Vegemite,
To CLEAR ALL Bookmarks you can trash the Bookmarks.plist. You will find it here ...
Finder>Home_Folder>Library>Safari Folder>Bookmarks.plist
I suggest to drag the Bookmarks.plist first to the desktop an import them again from your Powerbook. When everything is OKAY than trash the Bookmarks.plist from the desktop.
Good luck ... post back ...

Selecting Different Printer With Apple Script.

Hi,
I am currently in the process of making a script to be able to print off labels without the need of much user input (read from a document or e-mail) and I want to be able to set the printer when it goes to the print screen.
this is the final apple script step in the application cmd+p brings up the 1st print menu the return takes it to the second print menu cmd+v pastes predifind by the user the ammount of copys they want
on run {input, parameters}
          tell application "Labels & Addresses"
activate
                    tell application "System Events"
keystroke "p" using command down
                              delay 1
keystroke return
                              delay 1
keystroke "v" using command down
                              delay 1
                              tell application "System Events"
                                        tell process "Labels & Addresses"
                                                  click (menu item whose description is "Printer")
                                                  click (menu item "Zebra Technologies ZTC GK420t" whose description is "Printer")
                                        end tell
                              end tell
                              return input
                    end tell
          end tell
end run
now there is chance to change the printer selection twice once in the 1st print screen and once in the 2nd print screen the only problem is im not sure how to apple script to select the right printer from the drop down menu, I got the code from a forum but I think it was old code as when I tested it it was returning errors so I modified it a bit and now it just struggles finding the menu item with description of printer.
Does anyone know what I would have to use for it to select the right printer? (The Zebra Technologies ZTC GK420t)
Help would be greatly appricited!
Thanks,
Bruce
P.S. sorry the code is a bit messy!

Im NOT sure if you have just made this a little over complicated… This works just fine for me. Tested with about a dozen psd layers…
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
tell active document
tell rectangle 1
tell graphic 1
tell graphic layer options
set GLC to count of graphic layers
repeat with i from 1 to GLC
if name of graphic layer i ≠ "Blue" then
set current visibility of graphic layer i to false
else
set current visibility of graphic layer i to true
end if
end repeat
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
This variant also works as I would have expected too… Retaining visibility from a list…
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
tell active document
tell rectangle 1
tell graphic 1
tell graphic layer options
set On_List to {"Red", "Aqua", "Orange"}
set GLC to count of graphic layers
repeat with i from 1 to GLC
if name of graphic layer i is not in On_List then
set current visibility of graphic layer i to false
else
set current visibility of graphic layer i to true
end if
end repeat
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell

An easy way to delete a whole album without having to select it's tracks?

I have only been using iTunes for the past week after purchasing an iPod Nano, and am used to using Wmp 11. In Wmp 11, if you want to delete an album from your local library or dap, you can just right-click the album art and select 'delete'- job done.
However, in iTunes, I have found I have to make sure my Artist and Album categories are shown at the top of my track list (by clicking the 'eye' button at the bottom right), select the album so just that albums tracks are displayed, select one of the tracks, then Ctrl+A to highlight all the tracks, then press Del. Is there something I am missing here? I have checked the iTunes help, and can't see any other way of deleting a whole album without having to highlight all the albums tracks.
Any help would be appreciated.

Blimey! Why didn't I think of that? Especially as I knew to press the 'Del' key to delete highlighted tracks. I am assuming you can do the same if you want all an artists album collection removed too- highlight the artist and press 'Del'?
I think what it is, I am just used to right-clicking with Wmp11, and I am not used to using the keyboard for such tasks.
Thanks for the reply. I know now my question must seem rather silly.

Apple script to play a podcast faster

Hi
I'm trying to use a script to select an itunes podcast, then open QuickTime and then play the podcast at 1.5 speed
This script used to work for me in itunes, but now I get this error:
       Can’t get «class pLoc» of «class pTrk» of application "iTunes".
I'd love to be able to open VLC and do this.
tell application "iTunes"
    pause
    set my_track to location of current track
    set my_seconds to player position
end tell
tell application "QuickTime Player"
    open my_track
    set my_movie to first document
    set ts to «class tmsc» of my_movie
    set current time of my_movie to my_seconds * ts
    set rate of my_movie to 1.5 -- starts playing
end tell
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)

I'll give you one more method to add to the list:
Play Prompt (--Trigerring Contact--, S[extension])
The S[] prompt literal means to [S]pell out whatever value is in the variable.
Additionally...
#[position_in_queue] = First, Second, Third, etc. These are called ordinal numbers.
N[points] = One Hundred and Thirty Seven, Sixty Nine, etc. These are called cardinal numbers.
Lastly, you could use the Create Generated Prompt step to convert to other formats, but the spelling one is a simple and common one, which does not require that step.

Apple Script: How to deactivate single channels of a layer?

Hi there,
can someone probably tell me how to deactivate specific channels of a layer?
Example: Photoshop file with two layers, say CMYK. I want to deactivate CMY of the first layer, so that only K can be seen.
Unfortunately I didn’t find any information in the PS scripting guide nor in the scripting reference.
Thanks for any help on this.
andy

Paul, is correct you can't even do this in the app through the GUI. You would either need to duplicate your top layer loop through the channels that you don't want selecting all and clearing then going back to the composite or you could add an adjustment layer above the top grouped and use this by toggling its visibility (this is the way I would go). Paul 'AppleScript'? you've made me smile this morning what's come over you…
Added some code from scriptlistener…
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS2"
activate
set Doc_Ref to the current document
tell Doc_Ref
if mode = CMYK then
set current layer to layer 1

Track Select Forward Tool / Track Select Backward Tool

I'm an regular Premiere Pro user doing more work in Audition these days. One tool I can't find in Audition that I really miss from Premiere Pro is the Track Select Forward Tool / Track Select Backward Tool. Is there something like this in Audtion? It is basically a cursor that can select everything from a point forward (or back) on the timeline. This makes it easy to shift long projects with hundreds of clips, instead of zooming out to drag-select everything.
Practical example is editing an hour long podcast with 100 cuts. Somewhere in the middle of the project, one second needs to be removed. It would be nice to make the cut, then use Track Select Forward to select everything from that point on, then slide it to fill the one second gap.
Thanks,
jb

You can either use Ctrl Click to add clips to your selection across tracks. Or alternatively if you click with either the Move tool or the Time Selection tool in an blank area on any track the Marquee tool becomes available to draw over any clips on any tracks to select any clip that it touches. Or you can Select All Clips/Tracks and Ctrl click to remove them from the selection.
In your practical example first use the Time selection tool to mark the time that you wish to delete. Then use any of the above methods to select the clips that you wish to affect. Finally use Time Selection in Selected Clips in the Ripple Delete menu to remove the unwanted part. Note the other options in the Ripple Delete menu that may also be useful to you.

Select All in large table

My product has some very large tables (using RANGE_PAGING). I want to allow the end user to do a Select All operation, and then press a command button to act on all selected rows, but want my backing code to detect a Select All has been done, rather than attempt to retrieve all rows from the table. Is this doable with a RichTable?
I'm porting an existing UI over to ADF -- the old UI handled this by having a separate select all button (column header), which would get unset if any row got unselected, and the backing code could interrogate that. I was wondering if there was a more ADF-ish way of handling this.

Are you really using 11.1.1.6? If so, I guess you should be asking in one of the internal Oracle forums.
But, no, there's no "more ADF-ish" way to my knowledge :)
