The OmniGraffle Application: Stencils
A stencil is an element of the application class. A stencil is a container holding a defined set of graphics you can add to your OmniGraffle document.
In OmniJS, the OmniGraffle stencil class has a property (name) and elements (graphics). In a script, the stencil class is represented as stencil in the singular and stencils in the plural.
Determining how many stencils are installed:
| 01 | app.stencils.length | |
| 02 | --> 49 |
Getting the name of a stencil specified by index:
| 01 | app.stencils[0].name | |
| 02 | --> Recents |
Call the function below to retrieve the names of all installed stencils:
| Get the Stencil Names | ||
| 01 | function getStencilNames(){ | |
| 02 | var stencilNames = [] | |
| 03 | app.stencils.forEach(function(aStencil){ | |
| 04 | stencilNames.push(aStencil.name) | |
| 05 | }) | |
| 06 | return stencilNames | |
| 07 | } | |
The result of calling the function above will be a list of the names of the installed stencils: “Recents”, “Connections”, “Shapes”, “UX Kits Colors”, “Solarized Dark”, “Solarized Light”, “UX Kits UML”, “UX Kits Connections”, “Square Foot Gardening”, “Modern Landscape”, “Flowers”, “Reference”, “Africa”, “Colors”, “Fills”, “USA”, “Periodic Table”, “Rounded Corners”, “Mac OS X Wireframes”, “Magnetized”, “FlowChart”, “Furniture”, “Konigi Wireframes”, “UML-State”, “Antarctica”, “Asia Pacific”, “Russia”, “Middle East”, “Plumbing Fixtures”, “Walls, Windows & Doors”, “North America”, “Boolean Gates”, “Circuit Engineering”, “Connections”, “Appliances”, “UML-UseCase”, “UML-General”, “Fonts”, “South America”, “UML-Sequence”, “Europe”, “Turkey”, “Russia”, “Ukraine”, “Garrett IA”, “Three-Dimensional”, “ERD”, “iOS Wireframes”, “Shapes”, “Apple watchOS Suite”, “The iOS 9 Suite”, “UX Kits UML”, “Google Material Design Icons”, “UX Kits Hardware”
