OG6 and JavaScript for Automation(JXA) question.
Is it possible to get geometry(x,y,width,height) information for objects?
I want to get the following attributes.
position(x,y) milli meter
width: milli meter
height: milli meter
text value (done)
align
I wrote the following code, but I don’t know how to get geometry information.
Could you tell me how to get it?
Best regards.
(function() {
'use strict';
var og = Application('OmniGraffle');
var w = og.windows[0];
var g = w.canvas.graphics;
for ( var i = 0 ; i < g.length ; i++ ){
var a = g[i].properties();
console.log(a.text)
// var b = g.origin();
// console.log(b);
}
})();
Here is one approach to getting the millimeter values in a JSON format (for the selected objects).
On Sierra you can use ES6 or ES5 JS, but before Sierra it needs to be ES5:
(function () {
'use strict';
var ws = Application('OmniGraffle').windows,
w = ws.length ? ws[0] : undefined,
xs = w ? w.selection() : [];
// 1 point = 0.3528 mm
// mm :: Num -> Num
var mm = function mm(x) {
return 0.3528 * x;
};
// show :: a -> String
var show = function show(x) {
return JSON.stringify(x, null, 2);
};
return show(xs.map(function (x) {
var lstPosn = x.origin().map(mm),
lstSize = x.size().map(mm);
return {
position: lstPosn,
width: lstSize[0],
height: lstSize[1],
text: x.text(), // if you don't need formatting
alignment: x.textPlacement()
};
}));
})();
