Create swatch group and add existing spot colors to group

[ericg55606708]

All,

Thanks in advance for any help with this. I am trying to script the creation of a swatch group and then select all spot colors in the document and add them to the group. This is what I have so far.

var doc = app.activeDocument; 

var colorgroup = doc.swatchGroups.add(); 

  colorgroup.name = 'ArtiosCad';

//var selSwatch = doc.swatches.getSelected();   

//var swatch = doc.swatches;   

    for (a=0; a<doc.swatches.length; a++) {   

      var currentSwatch = doc.swatches;

  var swatchColor = currentSwatch.color;

      if (swatchColor == "SpotColor") {

           //colorgroup.colors.push(swatchColor);

            colorgroup.addSpot(swatchColor);     

            } 

     }

I am not very familiar with java script and am piecing this together from other answers found on the site. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Salut !

Move spot in group...

var doc = activeDocument;

  if (doc.spots.length >1) {

    var colorgroup = doc.swatchGroups.add();

        colorgroup.name = 'ArtiosCad';

      for (i = 0; i < doc.spots.length-1; i++) {

        colorgroup.addSpot(doc.spots);

      }

  }
