InDesign copy layer to another document - scripting

I am trying to write a script that copies a layer from one document into another.
var srcDocName = 0;
var destDocName = 1;
var layerNameOriginal = "Original";
var layerNameCopyTo = "Destination";
var destDoc = app.documents.item(destDocName);
var layerSrc = app.documents.item(srcDocName).layers.item(layerNameOriginal);
try {
layerSrc.duplicate(destDoc, ElementPlacement.INSIDE);
}
catch(e) {
alert(e)
}
Apparently this works in Photoshop but not in InDesign. I have been trying for ages to find some decent documentation for InDesign scripting. But all I can find is the CS scripting guide, which isn't of much use.
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/indesign/pdfs/InDesignCS5_ScriptingGuide_JS.pdf
If someone can point me to a good reference to the object model I would be grateful.

After some more googling I finally found the answer:
var sourceLayer = app.documents[0].layers.itemByName("Layer1");
var destLayer = app.documents[1].layers[0];
sourceLayer.pageItems.everyItem().duplicate(destLayer);
I also came across jongware which seems to be a complete Object reference extracted directly out of Adobe CS.

You can use this script: https://redokun.com/blog/indesign-copy-entire-layer-one-file-another
The underlying implementation is basically the same, but we've added a UI so it's not necessary to edit the script every time the layer name changes.
Edit: We've been told that the solution above doesn't work with threaded text frames, so I re-wrote the script. The new implementation is way more complex but it now supports threaded TFs.

To expand on the solution offered by Loopo and offer you the ability to copy all layers from 1 document to another...

{
var source = GetSourceDocument();

{

copyLayersOver(source, target);
}
function GetSourceDocument()
{
var returnVal = -1;
var oldPrefs = app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel;
app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel=UserInteractionLevels.INTERACT_WITH_ALL;
var dialog = app.dialogs.add({name:"Document to Copy From", canCanel: true, label:"DocumentToCopyFrom"});
var col1 = dialog.dialogColumns.add();
var StringList= [];
for(var i = 0; i<app.documents.length; i++)
{
StringList.push("[" + app.documents[i].index + "] " + app.documents[i].name);
}
var ddl = col1.dropdowns.add({id:"SourceDocDDL", stringList: StringList});
if(dialog.show() == true)
{
returnVal = ddl.stringList[ddl.selectedIndex].split("]")[0].substr(1);

function copyLayersOver(source, target)
{

var sourceLayers = sourceDocument.layers;
//Match the number of pages
while(targetDocument.pages.length < sourceDocument.pages.length)

{

break;
}
}

{
var targetLayer = targetDocument.layers.add();

sourceLayers[i].pageItems.everyItem().duplicate(targetLayer);
targetDocument.layers.itemByName(sourceLayers[i].name).merge(targetLayer);
}

Run last Photoshop script (again)

This seems like a trivial issue but I'm not sure Photoshop supports this type of functionality:
Is it possible to implement use last script functionality?
That is without having to add a function on each and every script that writes it's filename to a text file.
Well... It's a bit klunky, but I suppose you could read in the scriptlistener in reverse order and find the first mention of a script file:
// Switch off any dialog boxes
displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO; // OFF
var scripts_folder = "D:\\PS_scripts";
var js = "C:\\Users\\GhoulFool\\Desktop\\ScriptingListenerJS.log";
var jsLog = read_file(js);
var lastScript = process_file(jsLog);
// use function to call scripts
callScript(lastScript)
// Set Display Dialogs back to normal
displayDialogs = DialogModes.ALL; // NORMAL
function callScript (ascript)
{
eval('//#include "' + ascript + '";\r');
}
function process_file(afile)
{
var needle = ".jsx";
var msg = "";
// Let's do this backwards
for (var i = afile.length-1; i>=0; i--)
{
var str = afile[i];
if(str.indexOf(needle) > 0)
{
var regEx = str.replace(/(.+new\sFile\(\s")(.+\.jsx)(.+)/gim, "$2");
if (regEx != null)
{
return regEx;
}
}
}
}
function read_file(inFile)
{
var theFile = new File(inFile);
//read in file
var lines = new Array();
var l = 0;
var txtFile = new File(theFile);
txtFile.open('r');
var str = "";
while(!txtFile.eof)
{
var line = txtFile.readln();
if (line != null && line.length >0)
{
lines[l++] = line;
}
}
txtFile.close();
return lines;
}

Make OCG layer visible when field isn't empty?

Is it possible to check when a field is not empty and if not, make an ocg layer visible?
var ocg = FindOCG("Item 1 Arrow");
if (+event.value === '') {
ocg.state = !ocg.state;
} else {
ocg.state = !ocg.state;
}
Something like this (which doesn't work)!
Put this in the custom format script of the field in question. Replace "Square" with the name of your layer. You can see an example of it working here.
function getOCGByName(cName, nPage) {
var ocg = null;
var ocgArray = this.getOCGs(nPage);
for (var i=0; i < ocgArray.length; i++) {
if (ocgArray[i].name == cName) {
ocg = ocgArray[i];
}
}
return ocg;
}
var field = event.target;
var ocg = getOCGByName("Square", this.pageNum);
if (field.value.length > 0) {
ocg.state = true;
}
else {
ocg.state = false;
}
Note: This will only work in Adobe Acrobat and Reader and a few other viewers that are JavaScript capable.

Label Printing using iTextSharp

I have a logic to export avery label pdf. The logic exports the pdf with labels properly but when i print that pdf, the page size measurements (Page properties) that i pass isn't matching with the printed page.
Page Properties

A PDF document may have very accurate measurements, but then those measurements get screwed up because the page is scaled during the printing process. That is a common problem: different printers will use different scaling factors with different results when you print the document using different printers.
How to avoid this?
In the print dialog of Adobe Reader, you can choose how the printer should behave:
By default, the printer will try to "Fit" the content on the page, but as not every printer can physically use the full page size (due to hardware limitations), there's a high chance the printer will scale the page down if you use "Fit".
It's better to choose the option "Actual size". The downside of using this option is that some content may get lost because it's too close to the border of the page in an area that physically can't be reached by the printer, but the advantage is that the measurements will be preserved.
You can set this option programmatically in your document by telling the document it shouldn't scale:
writer.AddViewerPreference(PdfName.PRINTSCALING, PdfName.NONE);

JSFL - Adding a movieclip to a specific layer and frame

I am trying to replace an outdated movieclip with a newer one.
To do this I'm usin JSFL to locate the old movieclips, save a reference, then add the new version in its place.
I have looked at addItem addItemToDocument and they successfully add the clip, but I'm unsure of how to add it to the specific layer and frame that the old instance of the movieclip was on.
Halps
Replacing all instances of the old movieclip with instances of the new movieclip, could be an easier solution.
All instances of the old movieclip can be found by parsing the timelines of the flash document.
Here is some code:
var _doc = (fl.getDocumentDOM() ? fl.getDocumentDOM() : fl.createDocument());
var _lib = _doc.library;
fl.outputPanel.clear();
ReplaceItemWithItem('Game Layouts/card holder', 'Game Layouts/card holder new');
function ReplaceItemWithItem(oldmcname, newmcname)
{
var item1 = GetItem(oldmcname);
var item2 = GetItem(newmcname);
if (!item1) return false;
if (!item2) return false;
if (oldmcname == newmcname)
return true;
return ReplaceAllItems(item1, item2);
}
function ReplaceAllItems(item1, item2)
{
var timelines = _doc.timelines;
var i, l = timelines.length;
var items = _lib.items;
var changed = false;
// Main timelines
for (i = 0; i < l; i++)
{
var timeline = timelines[i];
changed |= ReplaceItems(timeline, item1, item2);
}
// Timelines in library items
for (i = 0, l = items.length; i < l; i++)
{
var item = items[i];
switch (item.itemType)
{
case "movie clip":
case "graphic":
case "button":
changed |= ReplaceItems(item.timeline, item1, item2);
break;
}
}
return changed;
}
function ReplaceItems(timeline, item1, item2)
{
var changed = false;
if (timeline && item1 && item2)
{
var layers = timeline.layers;
var lay, layl = layers.length;
for (lay = 0; lay < layl; lay++)
{
var layer = layers[lay];
var frames = layer.frames;
var fr, frl = frames.length;
for (fr = 0; fr < frl; fr++)
{
var frame = frames[fr];
if (frame && frame.startFrame == fr)
{
var elements = frame.elements;
var e, el = elements.length;
for (e = 0; e < el; e++)
{
var elem = elements[e];
if (elem && elem.elementType == "instance") // Elements can be empty
{
var item = elem.libraryItem;
if (item.name == item1.name)
{
elem.libraryItem = item2;
changed = true;
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
return changed;
}
function GetItem(itemname)
{
if (!_lib.selectItem(itemname))
{
alert("'" + name + "' does not exist in the library!");
return null;
}
return _lib.getSelectedItems()[0];
}
Hope this helps!

Reducing score in relation to countdown timer

I have a quiz written in actionscript 2. Everything is going swimmingly except that I can't figure out how to get the score to reduce by one point for every second it takes to answer the question.
So... max score is 30 points for each question and there is a 30 sec timer... and so that the quiz is more challenging I'd like it to reduce by 1 point for every second it takes to answer.

I don't see where you added your scores, but I believe you can set score = counter since your counter is the time remaining.
