I have a chemist who likes to create 1 project with data from multiple sources. We need a way to script, preferably in LabTalk, a way to save each graph into its own project. I tried this but I only get 1 graph with the name "newName.ogg".
{ // section brackets for error handling doc -e L { // loop over layers string LayerName$ = %H; if (find(LayerName$, "Graph")>0) { save -i %H; } } } doc -s; exit;
If you want to loop over every graph, you need to use "P" option in Doc -e command, insread of "L" option (which scans every layer in a single graph). E.g.:
doc -e P { // loop over graphs
string GraphName$ = %H;
if (find(GraphName$, "Graph")>0) {
save -i %Y%H; //Save graph in the User Files Folder
}
}
Hi Hideo, I tried that, and I'm still getting only one output file, called newName.ogg -- a name which doesn't appear anywhere in my project. It only has one graph in it, so it's at least getting that part right - but I want a separate file for each graph in the project. Di
Your/my code will never produce "newName.ogg" because you filtered out such name by the condoition, "find(LayerName$, "Graph")>0" - therefore you should get only files like Graph1.ogg, Graph2.ogg, etc. You can try a debug command before save command like: type -a %Y%H;
Turn 1 project into many
