find and between change

[hamdifem]

I want to change in my text frames written in paragraph style "EBT" text

Between 1 to 3 of "ABC" text

Between 4 and 7 "BIM" text

Between 7 and 10 "KLM" text

should write

where and how an error

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var myFrame = myDoc.allPageItems;
for(var i=0;i<myFrame.length;i++){
//if(myFrame.appliedObjectStyle == tmc) {
//if(i==5){break;}
app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null; 
app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = "myParS";
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "EBT";
if ((i > 0) && (i <= 3)) {var changeX = app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "ABC";}
if ((i > 3) && (i <= 7)) {var changeX = app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "BIM";}
if ((i > 7) && (i <= 10)) {var changeX = app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "KLM";}
myFrame.texts[0].changeGrep(); 
app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;

Hi,

1- it lacks a hook closure at the end "}"

2- you do not process myFrame[0] in your code, if this frame content "EBT", it will be erased

if ((i > 0) && (i <= 3)) {var changeX = app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "ABC";}

there I noticed the error

all the "ABC" doing text

if the end of the "break continue" Did I need to add

[Ronald63]

Sorry but i don't understand your problem ...

[hamdifem]

the problem is to place the order

but I was able to solve a number of rotating post (parseInt)

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;

var myFrame = myDoc.allPageItems;

for(var i=0;i<myFrame.length;i++){

app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null; 

app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = "myParS";

app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "EBT";

var j = parseInt(myFrame.texts[0].contents, 10);  //****************** + ****************

if ((j > 0) && (j <= 3)) {app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "ABC";}

if ((j > 3) && (j <= 7)) {app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "BIM";}

if ((j > 7) && (j <= 10)) {app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "KLM";}

myFrame.changeGrep(); 

app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;

}

but to stop after 10 "break" command in the summer when the results fiasco

[Ronald63]

Have you a screen of your doc ?

[hamdifem]

11, and 12 don't change

                      before                                                                            after

Dirty solution ... 😉

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var myFrame = myDoc.allPageItems;

for(var i=0;i<myFrame.length;i++){
    app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null; 
    app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = "myParS";
    app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "EBT";
    var j = parseInt(myFrame.texts[0].contents, 10);  //****************** + ****************
    if ((j > 0) && (j <= 3)) {app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "ABC"; myFrame.changeGrep(); }
    if ((j > 3) && (j <= 7)) {app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "BIM"; myFrame.changeGrep(); }
    if ((j > 7) && (j <= 10)) {app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo  = "KLM"; myFrame.changeGrep(); }
    app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;
}
