Adding label to specific item EXTENDSCRIPT
Hi!
I`m working in a project at the office and we want to write a script that creates folders. I’ve already did that with this simple code:
app.project.items.addFolder("RENDER");
app.project.items.addFolder("FOOTAGE");
app.project.items.addFolder("MATERIALES");
app.project.items.addFolder("PRECOMPS");Then we want to add labels to an specific folder, in this case is the “RENDER” folder. It suppose to change to red and the other stay in yellow.
I’ve try this:
app.project.items.addFolder("RENDER");
app.project.items.addFolder("FOOTAGE");
app.project.items.addFolder("MATERIALES");
app.project.items.addFolder("PRECOMPS");
app.project.item(4).label= (1)But I dont want to guess the index of the item, I just want the RENDER folder to turns red. There’s a way to add labels to an item named RENDER?
THANKS!

The simplest would probably be to save the Render folder in a variable:
var renderFolder = app.project.items.addFolder(“RENDER”);
app.project.items.addFolder(“FOOTAGE”);
app.project.items.addFolder(“MATERIALES”);
app.project.items.addFolder(“PRECOMPS”);
renderFolder.label= 1;Alternatively, you could loop through the project items until you find a FolderItem named “RENDER”.

I think I solve it with this :
app.project.items.addFolder("# RENDER comps");
app.project.items.addFolder("FOOTAGE");
app.project.items.addFolder("MATERIALES");
app.project.items.addFolder("PRECOMPS");
app.project.items.addFolder("Solids");var i = 1;
while (i<= app.project.items.length){
var itemX = app.project.item(i);
i = i + 1;
if (itemX.name == "# RENDER comps"){itemX.label = (1);
}
}But know I want to add a line that ignores “Solids” folder if the folder already exist.
Can anybody help me?

Something like this:
var foundIt = false;
for (var i = 1; i <= app.project.items.length; i++){
if (app.project.item(i) instanceof FolderItem && app.project.item(i).name == "Solids"){
foundIt = true;
break;
}
}
if (! foundIt){
app.project.items.addFolder("Solids");
}
