You’re right Peter, thanks. And thanks Jongware. Now can someone explain me realllllly slowly how Atomic Group is working? ... View more

Nice use of the Atomic Group Michel! It make my head spin «explode», so I’m more pacific and use one of these three queries that will also works. \([^(]+?\)(?=$) \([^(]+?\)(?=[\r\n]) \([^(]+?\)(?=\p{Cc}) or this one too in CS6 only: ^.+\K\(.+?\)(?=\p{Cc}) ^.+\K\(.+?\)(?=[\r\n]) ^.+\K\(.+?\)(?=$) or removing the ^ like this in CS6 and above: .+\K\(.+?\)(?=\p{Cc}) .+\K\(.+?\)(?=[\r\n]) .+\K\(.+?\)(?=$) PS: In CC, a bug seems to have been introduced that make regex with the ^ to fail after the first line break. ...

Look at this variations 7 drop down list fields and one check box. Everything works but the javascript console error is popping each time unless I pick a choice of the combo box. The error...

George, just noticed that the user need to pick something in every fields to get it working. Is there a way to make it works even with some fields answered? ... View more

George, I was planning to works on the bolding of the text this morning trying to get my head around span object, etc... Many thanks again, I was able to add specific color , size and others attributes. ... View more

That was it... Thanks! Amazing what a few line of JS can do. ... View more

Hi Georges, thanks for the javascript. When added to my get results button, nothing happens. Maybe there is some missing letter from the copy/paste code. My PDF is here if you want to take a look at why it’s not working. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1482399/Question1234_PopulateResults.pdf Many thanks! ... View more

This is what I have so far... It does not seems to be the best way if you have 25-50 fields to filter and collect. //set the vars var one = this.getField("A1"); var two = this.getField("A2"); var three = this.getField("A3"); var four = this.getField("A4"); var five = this.getField("Results"); //this function concatenates the fields values into one with a return as a separator. function concatFields(field1,field2,field3,field4,fieldDest){ //ensure all vars are present if(field1 && field2 && field3 && field4 && fieldDest){   var fieldVals = new Array();   if(field1.value!='' && field1.value!=null){    fieldVals.push(field1.userName);   }   if(field2.value!='' && field2.value!=null){    fieldVals.push(field2.userName);   } if(field3.value!='' && field3.value!=null){    fieldVals.push(field3.userName);   } if(field4.value!='' && field4.value!=null){    fieldVals.push(field4.userName);   }   fieldDestResult = fieldVals.join('\n');   //only populate the fieldDest if it's empty   //if(fieldDestResult.value!=''||fieldDestResult.value!=null){    fieldDest.value=fieldDestResult;   //} } } concatFields(one,two,three,four,five); ...

This is what I got so far... and it’s a prototype only. 4 questions, and javascript that grab the tool tips (a copy of the question) of each fields. What I want is something like this...

It’s more filtering than sorting... I need to get all the «Yes» tool tips contain, than the «maybe», than the «no» (all in the order they appears in the form. I can live without the bolding of custom text. And Georges, yes i’m talking about Combo box drop down list. ... View more

Kai, absolutely no rush my friend. What you have one so far is already useful. Improve it only if you have some joy doing it! 😉 ... View more

Kai, A quick test before leaving for the day. It works perfectly, but fail (at line 44, see picture) if the named object is on a locked layer visible or not. Awesome job... Thanks! ... View more

Kai, your script teach me something. I was thinking of naming my object with Script Label Panel, but now I realize that if I name them in the layer panel they can be selected via scripting. Like your script do. Much better, much easier! ... View more

Uwe, how does someone add a name using a script snippet? The document I’m thinking about using such script I need to add a name (so I was thinking about the script label panel). Then this document will be reopen only from time to time and this particular object might need to be move by a specific amount. This particular object will be on many layers on the document. Attached a quickmock up... Thanks! ... View more

Kai & Uwe, both solutions works perfectly. Both are useful depending on specific need and situation. Thanks a lot guys for your help and generosity. Hope this can be useful to others too. ... View more

@Uwe Your snippets fail/stop at if( each time. Thanks! @Kai Wow! This works on a single group object too. Might be enough for my need. ... View more

My first idea was indeed a dialog with layers names in it. Much quicker than having to turn on/off visibilities of layers, than return to original stay of document. For the objects, it could be a single or multiple object or groups. ... View more
