Hello again,

I am trying to label all the threaded frame on a layer with same label,
but I am not able to iterate on the textframes of the layer. Below is the
snippet:


var myDoc=app.activeDocument;
var myTotalPage = myDoc.pages.length;



if (app.selection.length != 1 || app.selection[0] != "[object TextFrame]"
|| app.selection[0].label != "sections")
{
alert("To run this script please select a
textframe first, with label 'sections'.");
}
else
{



var collect_all=new Array;
//Get properties of textframe
var myTextFrame = app.selection[0];
// var myTextFramePrev =
myTextFrame.previousTextFrame;
// var myTextFrameNext = myTextFrame.nextTextFrame;



// Get the name of layer on which "sections" frames are lying

var Layer_Name=myTextFrame.itemLayer.name;
//alert("Name of the layer is "+Layer_Name);

//Count total nos of frames on layer
var count_txFrmes_on_layer=
myDoc.layers.item(Layer_Name).textFrames.length;
//alert("Text Frame count on layer is "+count_txFrmes_on_layer);

for(var f=0; f<=count_txFrmes_on_layer; f++)
{
collect_all.push (app.selection[f]);
}

for (var a=0; a<collect_all.length-1; a++)
{
if (collect_all[a].nextTextFrame == null)
{
check_next = a+1;
while (check_next < collect_all.length &&
collect_all[check_next].previousTextFrame != null)
check_next++;
try{
collect_all[check_next].label="sections";
}catch(e){}
if (check_next < collect_all.length)
{
collect_all[a].nextTextFrame = collect_all[check_next];
}
}
}
}

Any suggestions please.

Thanks!
