Rename artboards in Photoshop using IF clause

[Mia32565052d1g2]

Hi all! 

I have a script that automatically renames artboards based on their dimensions, adding 'jpg.100%' and enables generator. 

I'm looking to take this one step further and add an 'IF' clause. For example if the dimensions are 1080x1080, then I'd like to rename the artboard 'InstagramSquare'

Could anyone help me achieve this? Below is the current script: 

function main() {
app.activeDocument.activeLayer = app.activeDocument.layerSets[app.activeDocument.layerSets.length - 1];
// Loop forward over top level layer sets
// for (var i = 0; i < app.activeDocument.layerSets.length; i++) {
// Loop backward over top level layer sets
for (var i = app.activeDocument.layerSets.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
try {
app.activeDocument.activeLayer = app.activeDocument.layerSets[i];
var originalRulerUnits = app.preferences.rulerUnits;
app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;
// Active Artboard Dimensions, by Rune L-H
var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putEnumerated(charIDToTypeID("Lyr "), charIDToTypeID("Ordn"), charIDToTypeID("Trgt"));
var artBoardRect = executeActionGet(ref).getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID("artboard")).getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID("artboardRect"));
var artBoardRectWidth = new UnitValue(artBoardRect.getDouble(stringIDToTypeID("right")) - artBoardRect.getDouble(stringIDToTypeID("left")), "px");
var artBoardRectHeight = new UnitValue(artBoardRect.getDouble(stringIDToTypeID("bottom")) - artBoardRect.getDouble(stringIDToTypeID("top")), "px");
activeDocument.activeLayer.name = artBoardRectWidth.value + "x" + artBoardRectHeight.value + ".jpg100%";
app.preferences.rulerUnits = originalRulerUnits;
} catch (e) {}
}
}
app.activeDocument.suspendHistory("Rename All Artboards to Artboard Dimensions", "main()");

Haha, that code looks familiar...

Yes, I should've said, thanks to you!

Here you go, try this:

function main() {
    app.activeDocument.activeLayer = app.activeDocument.layerSets[app.activeDocument.layerSets.length - 1];
    // Loop forward over top level layer sets
    // for (var i = 0; i < app.activeDocument.layerSets.length; i++) {
    // Loop backward over top level layer sets
    for (var i = app.activeDocument.layerSets.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
        try {
            app.activeDocument.activeLayer = app.activeDocument.layerSets[i];
            var originalRulerUnits = app.preferences.rulerUnits;
            app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;
            // Active Artboard Dimensions, by Rune L-H
            var ref = new ActionReference();
            ref.putEnumerated(charIDToTypeID("Lyr "), charIDToTypeID("Ordn"), charIDToTypeID("Trgt"));
            var artBoardRect = executeActionGet(ref).getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID("artboard")).getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID("artboardRect"));
            var artBoardRectWidth = new UnitValue(artBoardRect.getDouble(stringIDToTypeID("right")) - artBoardRect.getDouble(stringIDToTypeID("left")), "px");
            var artBoardRectHeight = new UnitValue(artBoardRect.getDouble(stringIDToTypeID("bottom")) - artBoardRect.getDouble(stringIDToTypeID("top")), "px");
            
            if (artBoardRectWidth == 1080 && artBoardRectHeight == 1080) {
                activeDocument.activeLayer.name = "InstagramSquare.jpg100%";
            } else {
                activeDocument.activeLayer.name = artBoardRectWidth.value + "x" + artBoardRectHeight.value + ".jpg100%";
            }
            
            app.preferences.rulerUnits = originalRulerUnits;
        } catch (e) { }
    }
}
app.activeDocument.suspendHistory("Rename All Artboards to Artboard Dimensions", "main()");

Ah you're the best! Thanks so much

Hi again @Stephen Marsh, 

I've tried adding more IF clauses as there are other sizes that will need to be automatically renamed but I'm getting this error:

Line: 27
->          } catch (e) { }

How do I get around this?

@Mia32565052d1g2 – It's hard to know what edits broke the try/catch block without seeing the edited code.

How many conditions? Below are links to tutorials on if/else blocks, but you may need to look into switch instead...
