collect certain paragraphs

[cmoke73]

Hi guys!

I´d like to collect all paragraphs with a certain paragraph-style from a selected textframe.

Something like that:

myDoc = app.activeDocument,
myObj = myDoc.selection[0],
myParas = myObj.paragraphs.appliedParagraphStyle("para-style name");

of course that´s false..

In the post https://forums.adobe.com/message/5167244#5167244​ there is a kind of way to do that, but not very helpful for me.

Any ideas?

thanks in advance

var mySel = app.selection[0].parentStory;

var myParas = [];

for (var i=mySel.paragraphs.length-1; i>=0; i--) {

if (mySel.paragraphs.appliedParagraphStyle ==

app.activeDocument.paragraphStyles.itemByName("myStyleName")) {

myParas.push(mySel.paragraphs);

}

}

alert(myParas.length);

Yes, it seems to work. Thanks!

Have to build it into a bigger story..
