Hi!

Trying to not remove some layers if name contains, I need some help

What regex needed for the "Notmatch" ?

app.activeDocument.layerSets[0].layers[i].name.match(Notmatch)

 

#target photoshop  
var docRef = app.activeDocument; 
var layName = docRef.activeLayer.name 
var Notmatch = "Invert"  
for(var i = 0; i < app.activeDocument.layerSets[0].layers.length ; i++) {
if(app.activeDocument.layerSets[0].layers[i].name!=layName && app.activeDocument.layerSets[0].layers[i].name.match(Notmatch)){
app.activeDocument.layerSets[0].layers[i].remove();
	}
}

I think I found it 🙂

#target photoshop 
var docRef = app.activeDocument; 
var layName = docRef.activeLayer.name 
var Notmatch = "Invert"    
for(var i = 0; i < app.activeDocument.layerSets[0].layers.length ; i++) {
if(app.activeDocument.layerSets[0].layers[i].name!=layName && app.activeDocument.layerSets[0].layers[i].name.indexOf(Notmatch)){
app.activeDocument.layerSets[0].layers[i].remove();
}
}
