• Rename the layer, group, Javascript object

  Hey guys,.

  I am writing a script which renames a layer and the group within the layer, then an object in the layer (but is not part of the Group) and have it executed in a loop.

  This is what I have so far, change of group name does not work.

  #target Illustrator
  
  var doc = app.activeDocument;
  
  idLayers(doc)//IRename layers
  idGroups(doc)//Rename groups
  
  function idLayers(doc){
      for(i=0;doc.layers.length>i;i++){
          doc.layers[i].name= 'id:GTM_Group '+(i+1)
          }
      }
  
  function idGroups(doc){
      for(i=0;doc.groups.length>i;i++){
          doc.groups[i].name= 'id:GTM_Group '+(i+1)
          }
      }
  

  I got into anthing to rename the single object still since I can not even rename it group work. I suspect that the new group name section does not work because I'm either using the incorrect syntax or a command that is not valid. Any ideas?

  (Attention to groups hidden within the transparent traces or other groups because it will find and rename these groups as well.

  to avoid dealing with groups (or objects) within the groups, not loop through all elements in the document, reference your articles by layers

  #target Illustrator
  
  var doc = app.activeDocument;
  
  idLayers(doc); // Rename layers
  
  function idLayers(doc){
      for(i=0;doc.layers.length>i;i++){
          var currentLayer = doc.layers[i];
          currentLayer.name= 'id:GTM_Layer '+(i+1);
  
          idGroups(currentLayer); // Rename groups
          idPathItems(currentLayer); // path items
      }

• Rename the file name background layer and move up

  I need a script that I can run at the end of an action to rename the name of the background layer and move it to the top of all the layers and hide visibility.

  That's what I want the layers of final document to look like, of course "filename" is the name of the file of the document itself. If I can change it to .jpg instead of a tif which would also be very useful.

  I use CC 2015 the more up-to-date version.

  

  I found these scripts that are not exactly what I need, but close and I can't understand how to manipulate.

  Script layer moves

  Open, do, and rename the layer "Julieanne Kost's Blog

  Update: now, I think that this may be totally useless. Because of this, I wanted the original filename.jpg was so I could export the image as an asset later on the road. I just tried to create the image assets and found that it creates a folder for each file, so if someone can think of a better way, awesome.  I was able to create action and move all my layers of setting down instead of trying to move the layer of file name up and it worked, but because each file name is different I can't select and hide in my action. There is a solution simple but do not do exactly what I need.

  Thank you!

• Cannot use fax function after rename the name of the printer

  I have an MFP HP LaserJet M1536DNF connected by network.  I have run the full setup package by the CD of the product, or on the web, complete update install the driver package.  The problem is the default printer name after installation as like "HP LaserJet 1530 MPF Series PCL 6" and can not be changed through the installation.  When I tried to change the printer name on the windows 'Printers and faxes', he managed but the fax doesn't work anymore after that.  It says probably 'impossible to find or connect the printer' after I click the fax or print the document to the fax printer.  However, I can still use the printing function after the name change.  The only way to solve now is to uninstall all and reinstall again, even I tried to rename back the name exactly for the name of the printer.  I use Window XP Pro SP3 with .net Framework 3.5 already up-to-date.  Thanks for the tips.

  Hi Cheetah12,

  Sorry to misunderstand.  I mean there is no option to not rename the printer when you run the complete package installation wizardfirst, but not the fax configuration wizard.

  In fact, I must mention once again that I have can print and scan even I renamed the printer.  Things I can't do the HP Send Fax or fax HP Setup Assistant and so, which means my fax machine was not working properly.

  Therefore, I follow the document from HP that you post step by step and of course the diagnosis by downloaded HP Print result and doctor Scan for both printing and scanning are in good health, all in green light!  But cannot always solve the problem of the fax.

  However, I finally found my way to solve the problem, which is just rename back the original printer name in the registry.  As a result, the printer in "Printers and faxes" which always shows the famous name, but actually running with the original name of the printer.

  In any case, thank you for your kindly help and fast track.  But I suggest there should be a direct way, like having an option to rename the name of the printer while the first installation wizard on your next updated version.  This will certainly help users who have to install 2 or more of the same model printer, to indicate which printer works easily.

• Photoshop layer redesign, rename the script for Illustrator

  The Photoshop scripting guru Paul R more to RetouchPro has created a really cool to rename script and layers of selected Photoshop batch numbers. I did find something similar on the side of the Illustrator.

  He gave his permission for me to post it here in hopes that some Illustrator scripting genius could come up with a similar script for Illustrator. It would be terribly difficult to convert into something that could use Illustrator?

• Rename a layer without touching the mouse?

  When you export files from Illustrator, I receive a ton of layers named < path > and < group >. I want to quickly rename these layers in Photoshop.

  I'm using Alt-[&] - to move up and down my Layer palette, but I did not understand how to change a layer name other than a double click on the name (which takes a hand on the keyboard). Is it possible to rename a layer using the keyboard only?

  If you use CS6 things are a little easier.

  Double click on the layer name to retype. Then press tab (or shift tab for the other direction), and the name of the layer is highlighted and ready to re-enter. Continue to do the same for the remaining layer names.

• How to rename the JAD file to eclipse MIDlet name

  Hi, expert,

  at the present time, our product team asks me to change the product name of the name of one to the other, I changed the title in the properties of the eclipse project and thought that's it. Cod file name was still the same as before.

  Then I discovered that I was wrong. The name options-> list of applications is still the old name. Then I change the COD file name (the name of the JAD file is also modified with it) and thought that I would be ok this time.

  I was denied again. The name on the download of air link always displays the old name and found out that the JAD stll MIDlet-name file has the old name and browser would use this name. Options-> application list, it still shows the old name. So I have to change the name of the MIDlet-name for the new name. However, I couldn't find a way. on the descriptor xml project, there is a tag called MainMIDletName, I changed to the new name:

  However it does not seem to help as well. After research, I found this link, but it does not say exactly how do without changing the name of the project that I really don't want to do:
  http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/Java-development/how-to-rename-JAD-in-JDE-Eclipse-without-ren...

  I have a few choice here? Any help would be appreicated.

  Hello

  To have the "MIDlet-Name" of the renowned JAD property, you will need to rename the project. Output file names can be changed via the BlackBerry_App_Descriptor.xml > Build (tab) > name of the output file (field).

  Kind regards

• After you rename the computer, the backup of the file history still showing the old name of the computer to its destination.

  Original title: history of Falie Worng Destination path

  I changed my computer name [my computer setting and the name, display name, computer and computer Description all equal under the same name]. But when the history of files backing up my files, he insists on putting the OLD computer name in the backup destination path, for example:

  Backup_Drive\\Backup_Folder_A\UserID\Old_Computer_Name\Data...

  I tried selecting a new backup drive and reboot several times, but the history of files always comes back to the old name of the computer when you create the destination path.

  How can I fix?

  Similar to the response of Siva here, you will want to return to

  C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\FileHistory

  Now, if FileHistory was lit before, using the old username, there will be a configuration file and the Config1.xml and Config2.xml files will contain several tags using the old name of PC. Rather than wipe these files, open each file in Notepad and search for the name of your old PC and replace with the name of the new, do not forget to save.

  In addition, if you want to keep a backup that has already been created with the old name of PC, you'll need to find, rename the main folder ("old name PC") and in this folder, rename tags in the Web configuration files (as you did in the local configuration files).

  When I tried to delete my local config files, he would recreate using files of configuration of the backup, that were also incorrect, so I just manually renamed and mine works fine now under the new name of PC.

• Is there a way to rename the "object/text box" in the layer in the Panel?

  I have a provision that has several near areas of text twice in the workflow in a layer, each of them with a minor copy change. What shows in the list of "items" in the layer is the first line of each (default) text box and it happens that they all start with the same text in each. Therefore, in the Panel, I have a list of several items that all look the same and I cannot differentiate between them when I click on an individual that I have them turn on and off.

  I am aware that I can rename the name of the layer itself, but is it possible to rename items in the inside Panel of the layer? I'd love to rename some of them.

  If this isn't the case, I guess I would have to duplicate the entire layer several times, rename the layer itself, each of them almost identical except for editing text in small characters each. Looks like it would be a lot of waste of resources and space in the file.

  Thank you

  You should be able to re - appoint any object similarly - click to highlight the name.

• Rename the layer random script

  Hello, im trying to make a script to rename the layer like this:

  "anyname. RGB"in"RGB ";   "anyname. CMYK"to"CMYK. "

  I found a that rename, but only with the name of the layer exactly and I have a lot of layers with random names before the ".rgb".

  can someone help me figure out how to do?  THX

  Oh, it's easy. This script will get the name after the first point. If there is more than one point, then it will get only the name between the first and the second point.

• Script to rename the virtual computer by name DNS listed in VC

  I am very new to powershell, and I tried to understand this by using pieces of code I found, but nothing helped.

  I'm looking for a script to take the given DNS host name for a virtual machine listed in VCenter and rename the virtual computer.

  For example.

  Host01VM01 (as shown in Vcenter) - the DNS name of the "something.xyz.com".   VM and rename it "something.xyz.com" in Vcenter.

  To run the script only for a group called "Mycluster" you can do:

  Get-Cluster "My Cluster" | Get-VM | `
  Where-Object { $_.Guest.HostName } | `
  ForEach-Object { Set-VM -VM $_ -Name $_.Guest.HostName -Confirm:$false }
  

  This script will only work for VMS that have installed VMware tools and probably only for VM which are turned on.

• Rename the source of names clip?

  In FCP7, there is a very handy feature that allows you to rename the source file to match the name of the element.

  

  This is extremely useful when you rename clips to be more appropriate/description of a project and you want to change the name of the source to match.

  Is there anyway to do something similar to the first Pro CS5.5 or you must rename each element source manually, then reconnect?

  Well... not really (but somehow). But there is a good reason why you don't want to do. Where FCP only works with QuickTime files where to rename source files to match the clip names is harmless, Premiere Pro works with a wide variety of native formats, including tapeless formats that require the naming of specific files and folders structures. If you have renamed the source file to match the clip names, formats may become unreadable by many devices and applications. Our concept is to 'do no harm '.

  However... If you want to consolidate and rename your source files to match the names of your clip (this is the part "kind of"), you can do so via the project manager (project > Project Manager).  Simply select the option 'Rename files to Match Clip names of media' when you cut your project. The reason why this option is available here, without you worry about corrupting your tapeless media structures is that Premiere Pro makes new copies of the multimedia files and puts them in a new location. In this way the original media remains intact and is not harmed. Premiere Pro can still access and open these files, since it requires structures of specific folders and naming conventions to import the files. Other applications and devices that need these structures of folders and naming conventions can always access the original source media that they were created from.
