Select all items/objects on specified layer

[andersn60104161]

Hi,

I have really tried but can't really understand the illustrator scripting guide.

What Im trying to achieve is to iterate through a layer specified by name and select all objects in it.

Does anyone have a good solution for this?

Thanks!

You can use this line:

app.activeDocument.layers["MyLayer"].hasSelectedArtwork = true;

Just make sure there is a layer named "MyLayer" in your document, which contains art!
