All Group to Ungroup Script

Thank U for the script. I spent 6 hours to combine how to do it using while loop, but obj.groupItems.length doesn't refresh (obj = selected group)

Hi

When calling the ungroup script with all top level layers of a document, those layers that have only one sublayer (and no immediate pageItems) will be removed.

To preserve top layers we adapted the getChildAll function to pick up layers as well:

function getChildAll(obj)
{
    var childsArr = new Array();
    for(var i=0;i<obj.pageItems.length;i++)childsArr.push(obj.pageItems);
    if(obj.layers){
        //  Get layers as well.
        for(var i=0;i<obj.layers.length;i++)childsArr.push(obj.layers);
    }
    return childsArr;
}

and in the main script we let layers make a call back to ungroup too, just as GroupItems do:

if(elements.typename=="GroupItem" || elements.typename=="Layer")ungroup(elements);

Best regards,
