Can someone share script that adds text in front of object names in layers.

[D.S..]

I do have random named layers with objects inside (circles, random edged figurs etc.). Object names most of the times do not have anything in common. They can be different shapes and colours.

Endgoal Example:

I select all objects in a layer or the layer (depends what is possible), run the script and some sort of popup comes up where I can place a text and it ads this text in front of every selected object in this layer only.

// select items
var input = prompt("");
for (var i = 0; i < app.selection.length; i++) {
    app.selection[i].name = input + app.selection[i].name;
}

Perfect! That's what i needed.

Thank you so much for your time! 🙂

You may also take a look at this nice approach, provided by Sergey Osokin.

Rename Items

It has some additional options to use placeholders and consecutive numbering.
