#Omnigraffle script how to#

Thankfully, our VP of Technology was willing to write an AppleScript for me, and jtCount was born. Here's my take on how to do this (step-by-step): - How to CROP an image to a canvas or object. Shows or Hides Layers lets you show or hide specific layers in your project. I spent quite a while searching forums and resource websites for an OmniGraffle counting script but was unable to locate one. Because the point of this exercise was to get counts, not investigate every nook and cranny of AppleScript and the OmniGraffle dictionary, I added the inelegant repeat loop and got on with life. I tried several variations, but came up empty (literally) every time. Jumps Elsewhere lets you jump to another Canvas in the OmniGraffle project, highlight other objects, or zoom in or out on the canvas. The script ran, but the lists came out with lengths of zero.

The purpose of this AppleScript is to set your Omnigraffle document to its default state in just one click. Runs a Script runs an AppleScript when the object is clicked.

For instance, if you were modifying a specific layer that you forgot to hide, it might change the way your prototype appear. If you happen to be using the “Shows or Hides Layers” action with the Presentation view, you may have remarked that you need to set the original view each time you want to test your prototype. You may be frequently using the Actions feature in Omnigraffle. I don't know much about scripting Adobe apps with Javascript, sorry! If you do any legwork on it, let me know and I'd be happy to lend a hand. Maybe that has some capabilities to script visibility of individual layers. (There are further notes on this below.) Press OK. I think CS3 and past that, though, do use Javascript for scripting. In the fantastic dialog that appears, enter some numerical data, such as: 1975 1979 1985 2001 2010.

Want to try porting that to Illustrator? :) Posted in Templates | 5 Comments » 5 Responses to “Show/Hide Annotations Omnigraffle Script”
