assets

Represents the document styles listed in the Assets panel. Styles can be added and removed manually by the user, so there's no guarantee that these styles are currently used anywhere in the document's content.

Since: XD 15

Enums

GradientType :
LINEAR, RADIAL - Type of gradient color element: linear gradient or radial gradient

Typedefs

Typedef ColorAsset

Assets library entry representing a solid color.

Property Type Description
name ?string Name of the Assets entry, if it is explicitly named. (The UI shows an auto-generated label for any unnamed assets).
color !Color Color of the asset

Typedef GradientAsset

Assets library entry representing a linear or radial gradient.

Property Type Description
name ?string Name of the Assets entry, if it is explicitly named. (The UI shows an auto-generated label for any unnamed assets).
gradientType !GradientType Either GradientType.LINEAR or GradientType.RADIAL
colorStops !Array.< {stop: number, color: !Color} > Array of color stops used in the gradient, where stop >= 0 and <= 1, and the values are strictly increasing. Same format as the colorStops property of a LinearGradientFill object.

Typedef CharacterStyleAsset

Assets library entry representing a set of text character styles.

Property Type Description
name ?string Name of the Assets entry, if it is explicitly named. (The UI shows an auto-generated label for any unnamed assets).
style !CharacterStyle Object containing the style properties

Typedef CharacterStyle

Character style properties. See documentation for the Text node type for more details.

When creating a new character style, all properties are mandatory except those with default values specified here. When deleting an existing character style, always pass the exact object returned by characterStyles.get() (with all properties fully specified) to avoid any ambiguity.

Property Type Description
fontFamily !string the font family
fontStyle !string the style of the font
fontSize !number the size of the font
fill !Color the Color of the font fill
charSpacing !number the character spacing
lineSpacing !number the line spacing
underline !boolean whether underline is turned on
strikethrough ?boolean (Since: XD 19) Default false; whether strikethrough is turned on
textTransform ?string (Since: XD 19) Default "none"; one of "none", "uppercase", "lowercase", or "titlecase"
textScript ?string (Since: XD 20) Default "none"; one of "none", "superscript", or "subscript"

assets.colors

The collection of colors and gradients saved in this document's Assets library.


assets.colors.get() ⇒ !Array.<ColorAsset|GradientAsset>

Get a list of all color/gradient assets, in the order they appear in the Assets panel.

The list may contain a mix of solid Color assets and/or gradient assets. If there are no color/gradient assets, an empty array is returned.

Kind: static method of colors

Returns: !Array.<ColorAsset|GradientAsset>

Example

var assets = require("assets"),
    allColors = assets.colors.get();

assets.colors.add(colorAssets) ⇒ number

Add color/gradient assets to the collection.

The list may contain a mix of solid Color assets and/or gradient assets. Items are not added if a duplicate color/gradient already exists in the collection, regardless of its name.

Kind: static method of colors

Returns: number - number of assets added (may be less than requested if duplicates already exist)

Param Type
colorAssets ! Color | ColorAsset | LinearGradientFill | RadialGradientFill | GradientAsset | Array.<Color|ColorAsset|LinearGradientFill|RadialGradientFill|GradientAsset>

Example

var assets = require("assets"),
    redColor = new Color("red"),
    blueColor = new Color("blue"),
    stops = [{ stop: 0, color: redColor }, { stop: 1, color: blueColor }],
    numAdded = assets.colors.add([
        redColor,
        { name: "True Blue", color: blueColor },
        { name: "Red Blue Gradient", gradientType: assets.GradientType.LINEAR, colorStops: stops }
    ]);

assets.colors.delete(colorAssets) ⇒ number

Delete color/gradient assets from the collection.

The list may contain a mix of solid Color assets and/or gradient assets. Assets with the same color/gradient are removed even if their names differ. Assets that already don't exist in the collection are silently ignored. Typically you will pass asset objects returned from get() directly to this function.

Kind: static method of colors

Returns: number - number of assets deleted (may be less than requested if some didn't exist)

Param Type
colorAssets ! Color | ColorAsset | LinearGradientFill | RadialGradientFill | GradientAsset | Array.<Color|ColorAsset|LinearGradientFill|RadialGradientFill|GradientAsset>

Example

var assets = require("assets"),
    numDeleted = assets.colors.delete(new Color("red"));

assets.characterStyles

The collection of character styles saved in this document's Assets library.


assets.characterStyles.get() ⇒ !Array.<CharacterStyleAsset>

Get a list of all character style assets, in the order they appear in the Assets panel.

If there are no character style assets, an empty array is returned.

Kind: static method of characterStyles

Returns: !Array.<CharacterStyleAsset>

Example

var assets = require("assets"),
    allCharacterStyles = assets.characterStyles.get();

assets.characterStyles.add(charStyleAssets) ⇒ number

Add one or more character style assets to the collection.

Items are not added if a duplicate character style already exists in the collection, regardless of its name. All character style properties must be fully specified (no properties are optional).

Kind: static method of characterStyles

Returns: number - number of assets added (may be less than requested if duplicates already exist)

Param Type
charStyleAssets ! CharacterStyleAsset | Array.<CharacterStyleAsset>

Example

var assets = require("assets"),
    arialItalic = {
        fontFamily: "Arial",
        fontStyle: "Italic",
        fontSize: 12,
        fill: new Color("black"),
        charSpacing: 0,
        lineSpacing: 0,
        underline: false,
        strikethrough: false,
        textTransform: "uppercase"
    },
    linkTextStyle = {
        fontFamily: "Arial",
        fontStyle: "Regular",
        fontSize: 12,
        fill: new Color("blue"),
        charSpacing: 0,
        lineSpacing: 0,
        underline: false
        // (leaves optional strikethrough, textTransform, & textScript properties at default values)
    },
    numAdded = assets.characterStyles.add([
        { style: arialItalic },   // No name provided: uses default name
        { style: linkTextStyle, name: "Link Text" }
    ]);

assets.characterStyles.delete(charStyleAssets) ⇒ number

Delete one or more character style assets from the collection.

Assets with the same character style are removed even if their names differ. Assets that already don't exist in the collection are silently ignored. All character style properties must be fully specified (no properties are optional).

To avoid ambiguity, pass the exact asset objects returned from get() directly to this function.

Kind: static method of characterStyles

Returns: number - number of assets deleted (may be less than requested if some didn't exist)

Param Type
charStyleAssets ! CharacterStyleAsset | Array.<CharacterStyleAsset>

Example

// Delete all character style assets from the assets panel
var assets = require("assets"),
    allCharacterStyles = assets.characterStyles.get(),
    numDeleted = assets.characterStyles.delete(allCharacterStyles);
