Is there a way to dynamically retrieve all the possible variants of a globally defined object, such as Justification, from a script?
In other words, I want to enumerate all the values under Justification—such as Justification.LEFT, Justification.CENTER, Justification.RIGHT, etc.—into an array dynamically, instead of hardcoding all the variations myself.
I tried code like the example below, but it seems that each value does not actually exist in Illustrator until it is explicitly referenced in the source code.
var justificationArray = [] ;
for(var propName in Justification) {
justificationArray.push(propName) ;
}
alert(justificationArray) ;
Use case:
Addressing an issue where specified text attributes are ignored when their values match the default values of the character/paragraph styles applied to that text. For types of Object, plan to dynamically retrieve values, convert them to an Array, and generate different values by shifting the index.
